tried this but now cant start game, got error invalid datetime format in file. (0)

ineffable -> RE: Custom Ops (4/27/2020 12:23:41 PM)
Sounds like the date/time format is borked in your Custom Battle.txt file. The date/time format must be at the beginning of line 7 in the format YYYY MM DD HH M M examples: 1942 12 28 15 0 0 = 3pm December 28, 1942 1944 6 6 6 0 0 = 6am June 6, 1944 This battle date/time is only used for single battles and is superseded by the start & end date/times in the op file [image]local://upfiles/69269/45E2FE1E8E4F4065B06CE370C3CF8798.jpg[/image]

mukiblejlok -> RE: Custom Ops (4/27/2020 2:45:30 PM)
ok, deleted everything and re did it, it works now, tnx

AUBGeek87 -> RE: Custom Ops (5/21/2020 6:08:10 AM)
Man, it worked!!! So the reason I was getting runtime errors before and couldn't even launch the game is because of the changing of 4.1 to 3. Once I changed it back to 4.1 it launched. And I was able to make somewhat of a balanced custom battle where both sides had bunch of tanks and infantry, and resupply my units and fight till the enemy was off the map. It's awesome. Would this work in multiplayer though?

ineffable -> RE: Custom Ops (5/21/2020 12:14:36 PM)
It should work in multiplayer. None of the files in the mod is much different than the stock game. Step and repeat to make other custom ops.

AUBGeek87 -> RE: Custom Ops (5/21/2020 3:05:41 PM)
Good stuff. Now, is there a way to quickly increase the availability of units within a given custom battle? Say instead of 14 main and 5 support units, I could make it 20 main and 10 support units.
