M'kay, this is what is going into the 'Read Me First' doc on the website. It's only the 'how to' for downloading and installing the 'A' (stock map) versions. It's got every possible option/combination from a simple download and unzip to creating separate QuietChina scenarios. Is this too much? too complex? I'll do the 'B' scenarios and Ext Map stuff in a bit.
First choose which Scenario Type you wish to play: BabesLite or BigBabes.
Then choose which Map you wish to use: Stock Map or Extended Map.
.. BabesLite is the same in all executable respects, and with regard to all AI files, as stock scenarios 001 and 006 (and the corresponding Quiet China scenarios 007 and 009).
.. BigBabes is significantly different enough to make it unplayable against an Allied AI and a bit dicey, but still feasible, against a Japanese AI. There are many new squad and unit features that make it exciting for human play, but the AI does not know about these things so it doesn’t use them.
.. BabesLite and BigBabes ‘A’ scenarios are played on the Stock Map.
.. BabesLite and BigBabes ‘B’ scenarios are played on the Extended Map.
IF YOU WANT TO PLAY A BABESLITE ‘A’ SCENARIO:
1) Download
.. BabesLite_AEScen026_A_v11.zip, or
.. BabesLite_AEScen027_A_v11.zip, or both
And unzip them into the game’s SCEN folder.
2) Then EITHER download the AI files you want to use
.. Scen026_AI_Files.zip, or
.. Scen027_AI_Files.zip, or both
And unzip them into the game’s SCEN folder.
3) OR create a set of Scen026 (or Scen027) AI files
Scen026 can use the same AI files as Scen001;
Scen027 can use the same AI files as Scen006;
3a) If you downloaded Scen026;
.. Copy the Scen001 AI files (the ones beginning with aei001) into an empty folder;
.. Renumber from 001 to 026 (i.e., change aei001-01.dat to aei026-01.dat, etc..);
.. Move the renumbered files into the game’s SCEN folder
3b) If you downloaded Scen027;
.. Copy the Scen006 AI files (the ones beginning with aei006) into an empty folder;
.. Renumber from 006 to 027 (i.e., change aei006-01.dat to aei027-01.dat, etc..);
.. Move the renumbered files into the game’s SCEN folder
3c) If you downloaded Scen026 and Scen027, then do both 3a) and 3b)
4) For a QuietChina version of Scen026 or Scen027, EITHER download the QC AI files
