I have downloaded and installed Patch 1.30 this afternoon.

If I want to use "Hardcore" - should I then use this new Patch 1.30b ?

Everyone should install 1.30b after installing 1.30 and or any optional DM patch.

 

1.30b will not change any DM files so whatever you are using post 1.30 remains untouched.

 

Similarly you can still swap DM using 1.30 DM Patches on top of 1.30b

 

1.30b basically only updates the Manager exe.

from the download page right under the files..

 

"Loading 1.30b if you have 1.30 already will not affect any DM optional patch that you have installed."

Good show OBD. There is one other thing you may like to check out that bugs me a little and wasn't a problem in P2 ..... well as far as I can remember lol. The multiple waypoints at the beginning of a campaign mission (Allied only, rarely fly DS) can number up to 10 or 11 I think before the main waypoint appears that leads you to the mission target. If one follows all these waypoints the war may very well be over or at the very least the aircraft one has been chartered to escort are long gone. I always shft+w through them until the main outgoing waypoint appears. Any way to reduce these initial waypoints to .... say 3 (that should be enough to form up) before the main outgoing waypoint appears ?

Its to gain height this side of the lines before going over the lines so as to avoid archie - standard procedure - lower your alt settings in workshops and you will see less.

Or yep simply ignore them and head on out!

 

They are mainly for the AI leader so that he is at a good alt before going over or we would have complaints that the AI goes over too low etc etc

Thanks WM now I understand why (in my impatience) when I hit shft+w to get through the "height gaining" waypoints my wingmen stay low for so long. I'll reduce my altitude setting as you suggest.
