That check box can be tough to spot first time through, especially at higher resolutions.

In the first post in here this map looks fantastic, everything clear and easy to see. But when I install it it looks like the pic below. Terrain kind of blurry, no? Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.



I have the same problem. The map looks washed out. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Edit: The strategic maps being blank is not an issue with the mod.

Status: offline 		just a quick Q - when using the IronX mod in combination with the Navy fleet mod, your counters have a different color compared to your vanilla IronX Mod counters. Is that correct?

I like your naval mod, I prefer IronX’s colors.
Luxury problem.

However as I prefer to keep the SC3 games aligned - I’ll stick with IronX + flags

...but your fleet setup should have been the default

I've just installed the mod and I'm getting a 'FAILED(draw_sprite_to_buffer): Segmentation Violation' error when trying to load any scenario. I'm running on a modern laptop with a Ryzen 3500u CPU, 8 GB RAM and Radeon Vega Graphics (2GB ram shared with main memory).

Can anyone assist? The standard game runs fine AFAIK, but only just bought. Thanks in advance.

Try deleting the v4.4 version mod folder and reinstalling v4.6 and then only 4.6 will be listed in the MODS screen, hopefully this helps.

It looks like there is a bug in the code that this mod (Iron Cross Mod) has now exposed.

To work around it for now and until the next game update:

1) try playing with the mod only in NATO counter mode, e.g. 3D units turned off

OR

2) if playing in 3D mode, try setting the LAND COUNTER STYLE to NONE (in the OPTIONS screen), e.g. no discs under the 3D units and that should work to get you past this error

Hello all - downloaded the IC Mod v4.6 but cannot find installation instructions in the folder. Are they posted somewhere or did I miss something in the download. Thanks


You'll just need to extract it and install it to the following MODS folder on your end, e.g. copy and paste here:

C:\Users\<username>\Documents\My Games\Strategic Command WWII - World at War\Mods

When installed the folder paths should look like this:

C:\Users\<username>\Documents\My Games\Strategic Command WWII - World at War\Mods\Iron_Cross_Mod_v4-6

After that you'll just need to go to SETTINGS->MODS and turn on the mod (if needed) by ticking off the box next to the listed mod.

Hope this helps,
Hubert

Hi Tanaka,

Looks like for now you'll need to edit in NATO counter mode for the mod to work in the Editor until the bug I recently found is corrected.

To do this, try playing the game in NATO counter mode and then this will reset the global setting for the Editor as well.

Hope this helps,
Hubert

Personally I prefer a bit more contrast. But not wanting to criticising a great mod and great effort.

I may try and see if I can keep the original map and still have the icon mod.

After installing the mod everything is OK but the soviet NATO counters. They appear like without the mod.

Strange issue

Yeah, I have this same issue too. The only way I've found to resolve it is to go into settings, click the mod box off and then on again. When the game restarts the proper Soviet unit icons are finally there,
