Issue with older mod - can't do amphibious assaults

[Ferrim]

I'm playing with an old Spanish mod that I've ported to DH, and I just don't get the option of doing amphibious assaults. I've tried to modify the misc.txt file to enable amphibious assaults by default, but that didn't fix the problem.

I've started a new game with DH, just in case the change didn't affect old saves, but I still don't get the option, while when I start a game from the old, Arma 1.3 installation and doing the same steps, it works fine. Playing from DH I even get the new missions of "sneak move" and "naval scramble", but "amphibious assault" is nowhere. I must be missing something but I don't know what.

EDIT: now I'm checking the save file and for every nation it reads "amphibious_assault = yes" so it should work...

Are you at war with someone? Are you ships based in your own ports?

I've tried to invade China with Japan, from Taiwan. I'm at war with them, of course.

Sorry for opening the thread in the wrong place BTW.

Post misc.txt from your mod folder as well as from DH please. There were several similar issues reported that due to wrong entries in misc.txt.

Here they go.

View attachment misc.txt This one is from Darkest Hour/db/misc (the DH file)

View attachment misc.txt This one is from the mod.

I modified several lines of the modded file to make it use some DH features, like the new map distances. Maybe one of these changes is causing the problems.

misc.txt seems to be ok. Sorry no clou. It's Martins turn now.

I've fixed it!

As I suspected, it was a problem of using the new map distances. I've changed back to use old map distances and now I get "amphibious assault". Nice
