Destroyer Command mission problems
 

Hi,
I'm having the same Janus error problem with DC Pacific mission # 2 that others have posted about. Thought I'd bought a bad bargain bin game. Can someone please tell me if a good copy of the file is posted on the web anywhere or send me a copy of the file?
I also had a problem with the Atlantic campaign making a dead stop after completing the "Narrow Seas" AC06 mission. I met all the objectives...is this a known glitch or do I have another bad file?
Appreciate any help.

you could install Fletcher's mod to get fix these problems or edit the campaign file to bypass them
Roy

Tried but No Joy
 

I've tried editting the PC02 file to make it look like others in the game but it hasn't worked. I also haven't had any luck finding a place that hosts the Fletcher mod.
Can you relpy with the corrected code or a place to find the mod file?
Thanks again!,

This is Fletcher's version that works.

Full Speed Ahead At Last!
 

Many many thanks!!! This should be a big help both in terms of getting to continue the campaign and being able to compare what works vs. doesn't work regarding missions. It will be a big help creating my own missions.

fletcher's site

is the officail UBI destroyer Command site still active there were one or two mission fixes available on there i seem to remember?

Mission Fixes
 

Yeah, I downloaded what was supposed to be a fixed Pacific mission # 2 file but it was basically more of the same Janus errors.
