French tanks for 412.1
« on: October 14, 2013, 06:24:49 AM »

Hello folks,
This is another humble (and not urgent) request for the incorporation of French tanks (Renault, Hotchkiss, Somua) into 412.1. These were made by Winflyr (https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,20498.0.html) and earlier by Charliechap at AAS, but apparently the classfiles are incompatible with the new game setup. If any of our resident specialists could adapt them for the new game setup, that would be marvellous!

Strange because classfiles for moving vehicles should be compatible between versions , only issue is for ship with beacon....can you post your log?

No Walter... and yes you are right !  :-X
The author uses the tanks Generic Class : com.maddox.il2.objects.vehicles.tanks.Tank$
This does not correspond to the same Class 412.
You must use a new Class : com.maddox.il2.objects.vehicles.tanks.PouetTank$

That would be great Walter, as there are a lot of interesting tanks and vehicles (for instance airfield start up trucks, fuel cars, etc.) to be used...

I have adapted them for the pre-DBW2 published in Beta.

All the Ships and Tanks have been properly merged by me in the classes required.

There isn't any "version" incompatibility with v4.121. The fact is that the spawners for those tanks are not there. So you cannot invoke them.

I've just got HSFX7 up and running.
Transferred my "old" WWI Tank Pack into it with no apparent problems.
Includes the French FT17.
Now want to adapt the WWI tanks to use the multi-gun feature that TD introduced.
That might take a little longer to do :)
Also transferred some ship models from v4.11.1.
Again, no apparent problems.

After a bit of work on *.msh, hier.him and technics.ini I have the Mk1Vm tank working with both guns firing in HSFX7
