Screenshots by Alan, Oriskany & Foxman
A new patch including the previously mentioned video tutorials is now available. Besides, an updated version of the demo, incorporating these changes as well as the Simplified Chinese localization, has also been put online.
New video tutorials: to access them, you can either click on the Naval Academy button in the main menu, or open them in-game through the new icon on the toolbar at the top of the screen. Currently, these videos are only available in English and without subtitles, but once the new video player has been sufficiently tested and debugged, we will integrate these new functions. Concurrently, we will carry on with the work on the interactive tutorials and the other videos (Briefings, Tactics).
Changed the Ouija overlay GUI so that all modes are now using the same "blackboard" look.
Unit icons on the strategic map have been improved.
Fixed a bug related to multiple deckloads strikes.
Fixed an issue with map icons tooltip.
Fixed a timeline tooltip issue.
Most of the other fixes are about the new GUI and a few problematic crashes which were caused by these new functions.
Also, of note: an updated version of the demo has been put online, that includes the Chinese localization and the tutorial videos.
Last but not least, Task Force Admiral is on sale until Monday, September 7, 10 AM PDT as part of the MicroProse Publisher Sale! Click here to check out all the deals! These include of course games such as Battleship Command, Sea Power, HighFleet, Boat Crew, Carrier Command 2... A myriad of titles you might be interested in if you enjoyed Task Force Admiral, whether because they are about carriers, WW2, or naval combat in general.
Also note that the very tempting Deck + Conn will be available from September 1, that is, Tuesday next week. It will take you to space in a manner reminiscent of naval surface and submarine combat, in an excellent, innovative package that will nonetheless feel strangely familiar to players who experienced the early 1990s.
Have fun & take care!
