Are there Any 1982 HCE Falkland Mods around, similar to the Falklands Scenario in the original Harpoon?

Falkand Island Wars, http://harpgamer.com/harpforum/index.php?autocom=downloads&showfile=298

Falklands/Soutatlantic http://harpgamer.com/harpforum/index.php?autocom=downloads&showfile=271

Those should get you started.

Ok, got those files and I think I needed the HCDA file too. So I added them and done this;
1) Make a directory inside your HCE folder.
2) Extract all files to that directory.
3) Download current version of HCDA and place files in the directory.
4) Copy commondb.rsr from HCE folder to that directory.
5) Use change battleset option to navigate to directory and load hdsu.res

I can open the scenarios but if I ask it to show details of a ship, or if I attack and hit one, the game complains about a resource error, (unable to open resource file {path given}commondb.rsr ) something I guess it has something to do with the commondb.rsr file, and then exits to the desktop.

I think it could be user error so any help would be appreciated.
thanks,
KennyM

My approach would have been to rename the commondb.res file in my HCE folder to commondb.res.bak then unzip the Falkland Island Wars battleset to my HCE folder, then unzip HCDA to my HCE folder, then load the game. The game will be happiest if the battleset path is left pointing at your HCE folder. You can load scenarios and saves from other folders but battleset path is best left untouched for now.

Perfect, thar resolves the issue. No error messages on loading a scenario and no errors when ship details are called for or when a ship hit animation is called for.
Thanks for that.
