Battlestations: Midway Message Board  

I'm also having this problem with the Steam version, even after applying the No-CD patch. It is extremely annoying. Torpedoes still seem to do the usual amount of damage, but AA and artillery are almost totally ineffectual. Sometimes if I keep firing long enough it does eventually start to damage the target (this is after a few minutes firing "Super Reload"!) but it makes the game almost unplayable.

Are we just stuck with this half-working trainer? I just had a rather amusing attempt at the "Might of Yamato" mission with the trainer active. Even after turning on Super Reload, it took 5 mins to sink the first 3 destroyers, and I never managed to sink the Houston at all despite hitting it several hundred times. Then the first US submarine managed to sink the Yamato by firing by firing a massive continuous spray of torpedoes in under 3 seconds, so many that the game slowed to a crawl. Is the trainer turning on Super Reload and Infinite Torpedoes for enemy units now? Very nice

As stated before, we can't reproduce the problem and we can't fix something we can't see. We also don't have the Steam version and it could be an issue with the digital download version.

OK. I bought the DVD version since it was so cheap, installed it to a different location, patched to 1.1.1, closed Steam, applied the No-DVD patch, and it still does exactly the same thing.

Exactly which No-DVD patch are we supposed to be using? The "HATRED" release? The MD5 hash for the executable I have is E5FC0833F9B77B2F9D0BF6F018872880 if that helps.

Try it without a no-cd fix on the retail ver. If it still doesn't work, then we need EXTREMELY DETAILED instructions on how to easily duplicate this problem EVERY TIME. Full system specs, version/language of the game, country purchased in, exactly when starting the trainer and every bit of info about how to get to the place in the game so that we can recreate the problem. If it's far in the game, we'll need a savegame file to get there immediately.

Something else I can recommend is going back to 1.0 of the game and using our original trainer to see if you get better results.

this problem occurs when the iowa mission pack in installed as im haveing the same problem now

thank you for posting this. we do not have this pack installed so it must somehow change the game .exe or game files/logic from the standard game-

this was driving us nuts so it's nice to know the problem-

best,
Cal

any plans on putting a trainer out for this since its a free download at the game makers site
