Once again, you're welcome ...

Some here have requested this mod as a priority. I am pleased to please them.

I am currently finishing the West Front late war mod as well as an Afrikakorps add on and a very huge East Front Entire War mod ...
When this is done, we will have almost everything we need to simulate any battle on any front of the Second World War.

Afterwards, I will try to publish all the original scenarios of the gameboard corresponding to these mods or to work on new mods WW1 or post WW2.

I remain convinced that this game can largely take the place of ASL (which was never really adapted on computer) with simpler rules and especially an artificial intelligence convincing enough to take pleasure in playing against computer.
What was missing in HoS so far is a greater comprehensiveness in countries and theaters of operations.
This is less and less the case.

Anyway is a shame that this game is no more supported.I have done a mod with value for the AFV more close to ASL.I have value very close to ASL to be applied but after discovering a bug in the mud condition i have stopped any work waiting some patch.
The bug consists in the fact that confuses AFV armor value with mud movement value.



I think we must give up all hope of seeing the developers change the game engine. We are left to ourselves and we will have to find solutions on our own.

My philosophy is: 'when you encounter a problem that nobody can fix, bypass it or do with it...'

...i'm interested to view the Pacific and Blitzkrieg.


I have many other projects in my drawers ...

Battle of Mosul

Afghanistan

Grozny

Crimea

Arnhem

Berlin 45

Afrika Korps

Israël/arabian wars


...

You can really do a lot of things with this game engine ...

Our mistake at the start (3 years ago) was to want to make it as an all in one game.
It is a real headache because of the limitation of the 8 separate nations for example.

I now think that it should be considered as separate modules (much like the original boardgames or Advanced Squad Leader): a module for each period or front.

Arnhem


anything to do with Arnhem or the falklands etc, as their my fav battles

Thanks for all your work maitrebongo. The mod packages and your editor tutorial have just brought a great game back to life! I was a beta tester for HoS and was both disappointed and mystified at how quickly interest in this game died out, and how quickly the developers abandoned it. There was always a lot of potential behind this title and it appears that a small community has sprung up again to keep things going. Great job to all that have been creating new content (*cough* Rico)!

Now, if only people would show an interest in some online play (another dimension to this game that surprisingly never took off)...

Just stumbled on this today. I can't even begin to thank you enough for this! I just loaded up the game after a break of couple of months...hard drive crash with a lot of other priorities to get back, like my entire steam library of 150+ games :). I was actually playing the board game of LnL last night, and once again I thought "man, how awesome would it be if they could update the computer game", never in a million years figuring that someone already did it. Once again, thanks man! If this place had geek gold, you'd get a 50gg tip.

One question about the editor, if you don't mind. How do I load an existing map? I have physical copies of all the LnL modules except Heroes of the Pacific, so I thought I'd spend some time setting up some of my favorite scenarios for the different modules you did. I know enough of the editor to place units & reinforcements, but I've forgotten how to load an existing map into the editor.

I figured it out...the maps weren't where I thought they'd be :).

I'm reading the editor tutorial...thanks for that! I'm having trouble getting unit facing to change, though. It says to click on the unit, making sure it's highlighted in red, and the hit the "?" key. When I do that, nothing happens. Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Hi Maitrebongo,thank you for your tutorial.Correct me if I'm wrong,in the Pacific there are the cave but we have no rules implemented for the hidden movement between them.Is correct?

P.S:At the moment i'm studying a different value for AF and to kill table .My goal is to have results more sinilar to ASL where is impossible to eliminate a Tiger with a 20mm gun.In other words i want to improve the resistance of the AFV against ordinace and,consequently,reduce the luck factor too strong with the normal value.This work is for my use but if someone is interested i can post it.Needless to say that is a long work and i don't know if is possible to reach the goal.

There is in program also a North Africa mod with Italian and Afrika Korps?

I'm trying to place an anti-tank gun and a few tanks in a scenario...I've tried every permutation of "?" that I can think of, and nothing happens, they stay in their original facing. Everything else from your tutorial works fine.

UPDATE: ok...hit every key on the keyboard...it's the . and , keys. Also, the . on the numpad works as well for one direction. I swear on a stack of bibles I tried those keys earlier, thinking that the < > might be the keys (would seem sort of intuitive).
