There are two Campaigns folders, one contains the official campaign files, the other is where User Campaigns belong.

The latter is where this campaign should go, and on my system it would be here but the exact path name will almost certainly differ on your side:

C:\Users\Bill\Documents\My Games\Strategic Command WWII - War In Europe\Campaigns

If all the relevant files, i.e. the cgn file and campaign folder are placed in this folder, then it should work.

Bill

PS Ah, I hadn't seen Crispy131313's reply were on the next page!

I forgot the flag overlays the HQ. In that case they are all great.

You can now include in the MOD at your wish.

Sorry for jumping in here...

Sipres could I use some of your NATO Sprites in the World War III 1946 mod? Yours are so much cleaner than mine.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/pf6ir0vncrhs9n5/FW%208.4.zip?dl=0

I have incorporated most of the changes from BETA patch (with the exception of the major aircraft changes which are being tested by those who test).

Finished NATO sprites for the mod are also uploaded. Thanks to Sipres for originally designing the template, and Phalen who for the re-design (and their ongoing support!)

Quite the contrary actually. Diplomacy chit investment is still required to succeed or trigger many events.

Thanks for the great Mod

As for a missing unit I am not sure of the cause here as there is nothing I could have done with the editor to cause it. If it is in fact an error you should report it to Hubert.

Also I'm glad you like it! How do you find balance?

Status: offline 		It turns out the units did show up in the build que on my next turn. This is my first game so far and it is early, Russians aren't in yet, but so far so good. The game itself plays very differently depending on the DE's you choose. I do think bombers are a little on the weak side. Did you slow research by chance? Tech is progressing painfully slow.

I'm happy to hear that it feels that way, as that is the intention! If you find yourself in some unhistorical situations they can snowball as well

Yes Bombers are toned down intentionally but as I have confirmed in PBEM they remain very useful and an integral part of any offensive.

quote:

Research is slowed down yes, mainly for later levels (3-5) I doubt you are feeling this yet so early in the game. You can find solace that you should hold a slightly longer tech advantage against the Soviets because of this though.

The AI will counter your diplomacy in many instances in my mod which you may be finding, which I think is good behavior. You can still sway nations to join the Axis, but it is not guaranteed.

I believe the Tank in question was in a town/city/capital where the defensive penalties applied on a level 1 Tank would appear this way. I don't think this was a bug.

Any help in words of one syllable will be greatly appreciated

The campaign needs to go in a different place, as where you've placed it is where the official campaigns belong.

This thread will help, scroll down to post 15:

Don't transfer your game, but if you go to the relevant place mentioned in post 15 (Documents > My Games > Strategic Command WW II - War in Europe) you should already find a Strategic Command related folder there, with sub folders, and if there isn't already a Campaigns sub folder, create one and place the relevant mod files there.

It should then work, hopefully.

Bill
