I didn't know about the change in the code, like you said the AIMNAS AmmoTypes.xml still have the old tags.
After a few tests changing the tags in the Bigmaps folder, it's working correctly now.
Thank you!

I changed the tags for the AIMNAS ammotype file to match the new 1.13 file, there are a handful of ammo types that didnt have a direct correspondance and i dont know what they usually look like so i improvised. Feel free to modify to your liking.
(Still can't post links so change X to H)

Hi,
it appears I´ve found a pretty old bug, at least I remember I had the same issue with Build 7435. I haven´t played any 1.13 for a long time (because of this bug).
I start a new game, recruit some people, save, quit, load ny savegame -> The first merc I recruited (doesn´t matter whether it´s over IMP, AIM or SPECK) has Barry Ungers Face. Everything else remains the same. When this "Barried" merc then sais something on completing an assignment (like training, arriving in a sector, finishing repairs,... ) I get an assertion error. He/she can engage in regular dialogs however.
Assertion Failure [Line 6600 in File Map Screen Interface.cpp] - I can´t find this file or any file with a ccp extension in the game folder.
I´ve tried with build 7609, with the very latest build from this thread (SCI_JA2v1.13_Revision_8633_on_GameDir_2449), and with build SCI_JA2v1.13_Revision_8633_on_GameDir_2449 with the JA2_8645 exe, over an old JA2 CD I still own (checked, it´s 1.03) and over the steam version (store.steampowered.com/app/12380/) which is JA2 Gold 1.12. I´ve installed the full Win 10 compatibility patch from within the docs folder when running Revision 8633.
I´ve tried with both unchanged and extensively modded ini files.
Although I´ve set the option to save on assertion error, I don´t have any 
Screenshot:

PS:
I´ve reported the same bug back in 2012 already:
thepit.ja-galaxy-forum.com/index.php?t=msg&goto=299324&#msg_299324
Two more issues:
My desktop flickers through heavily. At first I could fix this by enabling vsync and installing the compatibility patch, but after a few restarts of the computer, it feels like it´s getting worse.
Multiple options in the ini editor do not work. For example the "enemies drop all gear on death". Editing the corresponding .xml file directly is not taking effect.

Well, I´m running build 8633 with exe 8633 or exe 8645. The issue is this:
up.picr.de/34691718kh.png
The value in the .ini editor can not be changed. Changing the value manually in the corresponding .xml file is not taking effect.

UPDATED: Speck is not bugged, once I just go ahead and move the game time forward on the Strategic Map (I updated this weeks ago, but it seems it did not take, so updated post again)
Upon updating to the 8646 EXE BUILD, on an existing game, I find that Speck in M.E.R.C.'s page is showing his portrait for only a half second and then saying nothing, with the portrait disappearing almost immediately. I'm thinking that perhaps the MERC option may have been moved to another location, and perhaps that is overwriting the current save with the new build for the exe. Or that since I have not yet actually played with the new build beyond checking out the Laptop and the Strategic Map Screen, that perhaps once I have started the time clock forward this may correct itself.
Nonetheless, since I don't have time to do that tonight, I mention my concern that perhaps Speck's MERC comments, when you are at the M.E.R.C. homepage and wait a bit, may be bugged on an existing save, probably from 8633. I'll look into more in the next couple days, worse case by Weds, Thurs on my days off.

Hey everyone,
First of all, thanks to Depri and all of the others who have put so much effort in creating and maintaining the 1.13 mod!
Sorry for asking stupid noob questions, but I unfortunately am pretty much of a noob when it comes to modding and programming...
I downloaded the current build and extracted it over my JA2 install. So far, it did seem to work well. Now, my questions are:
- What is that Editor I read about? What's the difference between starting the game from the .exe file or the editor? (I'm pretty sure this information is there somewhere around the internet, but I either did not find it or did just not understand what the stuff I read through in the last couple of hours meant)
- After having extracted the mod files, I checked the ReadMe.txt called "download latest ja2.exe" and downloaded the files I found under the link in the doc. Now I see a couple of .exe files: ja2.exe, JA2_8647.exe, JA2_8647_Editor.exe, JA2_8647_UB.exe. While I understand that the last file mentioned should be "unfinished business", I wonder what .exe to use to start the game. If I remember correctly, I read somewhere that one of the .exe files should be deleted or renamed (?) - does that still apply even after having downloaded the most recent copy of the .exe as described at the beginning of this paragraph? (to me it looks as if ja2.exe and JA2_8647.exe were exactly the same files, is that correct?)
- What's the difference between INI Editor.exe and JA2_8647_Editor.exe?
Sorry again for asking stupid questions, I must admit that although I've always been interested in programming, I never managed to find decent "resources for dummies" to start with *sigh*
Thanks so much!

@ KittyK
In my case, when I last downloaded the latest Build, which was about a week ago I suppose, I got JA2_8646.exe. I just renamed that to JA2.exe and used it as such. It really is just the JA2.exe but with the build number so that you can know what you downloaded.
An SCI includes both the latest build for the SCI and the corresponding data changes for the directories.
I don't use the Editor.Exe files, since they aren't kept updated SUPPOSEDLY and so it is more effective in most cases to simply work with Notepad on the various INI and XML files to customize your game.
My guess is that INI Editor.exe and JA2_8647_Editor.exe would just be the latest version of it included in the 8647 build or SCI. You just rename it. But I cannot guarantee I am right about that. It just would fit the same theme.
Myself, I don't follow those old instructions to download the latest JA2 files. That was put in there long ago during the SVN depository days. When you download the Depri SCI or the Builds, you are already doing this, just in a better packaged and labeled form. My guess is that the one labeled JA2.exe was an example of one downloaded by that other method. It is harder to keep track of what is what, and the labels aren't there.
As for the UB etc files, I believe you are correct, but I just play the JA2 latest SCI or Build from the v113 directory or whatever, so I can't speak to that as it has been way, way too long since I did otherwise. My guess is that if you want to play UB but with the latest v113 enhancements, you simply replace the ja2_UB.exe file with the one with the latest build number and so forth, and then use that, from the UB folder. There should be some explanation somewhere, probably in the first post of this thread, explaining much of this, or in the various .txt files somewhere in the download.

Possibly a newb question but i have the GOG galaxy version of JA2 now. It is 1.12, is this SCI version compatible with it or do i need another version from elsewhere? (JA gold or whatever from Steam?).
thanks for a great community.

I run into problems with newer map-editors. I can't choose the faction (loyalist,kingpin,rebel,etc.). I click the tab and then nothing pops up.
My installation: JA2 then the 113 build above, as described on download page and done for years. Tested with standard maps, no other mods. The games start and are playable without any problems.
I compared my following downloads:
r8673_on_GameDir_2474 - map-editor delivered with doesn't allow to choose faction.
r8665_on_GameDir_2472 - map-editor delivered withdoesn't allow to choose faction.
r8496_on_GameDir_2397 - map-editor delivered with does allow to choose faction.
Has something be changed between 8496 and 8665? I can't read the what it says when started, too fast, but I think those where different versions (years), not sure.
Edit: narrowed it down,
r8517on2400 (15Jan18) the tab in mapeditor works
r8534on2408 (4March18) the tab in mapeditor does nothing
Since they are published here, I thought this to be the right place to report, if this wrong tell me please.
EDIT: For 8683 a fix for this problem is announced.

Kermi's FTP seems to be down, clicking the link on forum mainpage just leads to a message from the hosting company saying (in Finnish) that the service has been discontinued, followed by an ad for their new cloud platform. Hopefully there was a backup...

Thanks for all the effort updating the game even now.
Here is one obvious question though: how do I set up the game to be completely german?
Are there still german versions of Patch 1.13 coming out? How do I find out which one is the latest version that was published in german?
All I am finding via google is the 1.13 version 7604, which is from 2014... is that the latest?
Grüße
Edit: Or is there a way for me to turn it into german? I'm afraid I have little coding knowledge, though.

Hey guys
It's been years since I played 1.13 and I'm completely out of the loop regarding features mechanics and I was wondering if any of the features in depri's build compared to 2015 stable releases do not work or are to be avoided? I'm specifically interested in NCTH because I noticed there's no longer an option to select it on the main menu and I'm wondering what's the reasoning behind it. I know it can still be toggled on through ini editor but before I commit to a campaign I'd love to know if it causes any issues or breaks game balance.

sevenfm wrote on Tue, 12 November 2019 20:06NCTH should work well in actual unstable, no reason to avoid it.
The only reason to remove options from start screen was that someone had a free time to play with code. And it allows you now to change options during campaign.
The balance is a personal preference, OCTH usually allows easier hits but can become boring in the late game, NCTH has it's own balance problems but in general is less headshot game, and more "realistic" ballistics and autofire behavior.
Thank you!
