Yes, I saw that. Just wondering if the fix can be included in the current version in case someone hasn't seen the other thread. Right now it makes it tough in PBEM unless you have two players in the know, as a lot of people don't frequent these boards. That is why I am not starting any PBEM on vanilla version until the Steam version gets patched.

Unfortunately it's not something I could fix with the editor, the fix is probably part of the game engine.

Seems to be a bug in 17.0. I was in a PBEM where the Axis had destroyed the French forces, but held off taking Paris itself (almost all the rest was taken and the French unit in Paris was gone). Next turn, France surrendered, due I suppose to conditions being met for surrender even if Paris was not yet Axis occupied. But there were no messages creating any of the territories of Algeria, Tunisia or Syria. They all now just showed as Axis occupied. I went ahead and resigned as Allies.

I haven’t made any changes to that effect. It sounds like someone just wanted to exploit the game by not capturing a capital in which case I would quit as well.

I cannot get your mod to show up on the campaign list. The folders/files are all in the correct place but the mod does not show up on the Campaign list :(

Did you extract the downloaded folder into your Campaign folder? Not the game one, but the one in this directory.

It seems I have the same issue than Rodimstev :


"could not find directory_fall weiss II - 17.0\campaign.ini
Saved game will be load without customization"

Any idea to solve this plz ?




I don't think the game comes with the .ini file. Can you open the campaign in the editor?


At a guess I would say you have a folder called FW17.0 created when you unzipped the mod. Now open the folder & you should see a folder called "_Fall Weiss II - 17.0" & a file called "Fall Weiss II - 17.0.cgn" now move them both into your campaigns folder & your good to go. You can now delete the FW17.0 created when you unzipped the mod.

Obviously the install is wrong.

Download the zip file and select "Extract" then choose the extract location to be C:Drive > Users > My Profile > Documents > MY Games > SC3 > Campaigns.

If you can not find this location, open the editor, select a campaign "Save As" a new scenario and you will create the folder.

Took me 3 hours to install 17.0, but doubtless that was solely due to my complete ineptitude with computers.

I'm sure it will be worth it as I've enjoyed many games with 9.1. Your continuing support for the mod is impressive, though I hope you won't make any more changes for a long time................

12.0 was the last version which had 7 Majors, I have not updated it in some time.

All of the PBEM games I have seen pop up have been with the most recent versions, so I would suggest only downloading 17.0. Enjoy!

already the next question:

I extracted the files to my campaign folder... no result
to my community pack folder (where fall weiss 9.1 is located and is working) but no result
to my campaigns_de (German language folder?) but no result

I'm a bit confused

The mod is not downloaded into the community pack, or where you will find the vanilla game. Find the above folder, if it's missing open editor save a custom campaign and the folder will 100% be there.

got it... the problem was I am using the steam version with this starter screen. Just quitting the game is not enough, you have to close that starter tool too and then start it again. Et voila - fall weiss II version 17 appears.

Been fooling around a (very) little bit with your mod.

Is it your intention that Spying & Intelligence be allowed a double chit investment?

Seems counter intuitive to the intent of slowing research down.

It is intended yes, it actually used to be like that in the vanilla game as well, but was reduced to 1 to slow down research (IIRC). I've chosen to slow down top end research instead as seen below. It has always felt right so I've never considered changing the spy/intel investment.

Research Progression Levels: (Base game is 5% for all)
Level 1 - 5%
Level 2 - 4%
Level 3 - 4%
Level 4 - 3%
Level 5 - 3%

Slowing down research like Crispy has done in his mode should be done in the standard game too. I had a similar suggestion recently.

Version 19.0 - We are nearing the end! If their is any balance issues or bugs please let me know

- Updated NM scripts/Vichy 602 DE so France will not surrender without Vichy decision presented (considered a bug)
- Updated Soviet reserves (Stalingrad, Moscow, Leningrad) so that Finland must be active, this is meant to slightly delay their variable deployment
- DE 892 Updated text, fixed unit script (Finnish engineers)

With v18, I found it very hard to take Poland out in 2 turns. I actually couldn't do it until I turned FOW off to see the deployments. Even then it required a bit of luck.

The AI had no hope of doing it and with very little effort Poland was going to last into 1940 (unless the weather stayed perfect).

That's why I had initially weakened Poland so much, the AI was having a very hard time. Maybe it was better the way it was before, or I should just make the Polish HQ appear on PBEM games only?
