Re: Campaign creation guide
Thanks for your response. Grondel helped me with the needed advice that you gave - I needed to set up the campaign in the Mods folder and not the Campaigns folder. Mucking around with the structure and the necessary csv and lua files has meant it is all up and running. Now, climbing the Lua coding m...

Re: Campaign creation guide
My first question (since the last lot) is why I can't get the background image to show when clicking on a custom campaign. The text and other details are all correct but only the official campaigns change their background. I have checked paths and (custom) folder structures in the \Data\Campaigns.cs...

Re: Ground only view?
That is a great idea but it would mean another set of icons. Admittedly, the icons just need to be 'shrunk' but I'm sure there is coding to make it all happen.
In the meantime, a function like the editor has to show/hide air/ground units would be very helpful.

Campaign creation guide
Has anyone written a guide for campaign creation? I made a few campaigns for PzC1 but there are a lot of changes in PzC2. I have downloaded some user-made campaigns and am trying to reverse-engineer them but have struck a few issues that have stumped me. I understand (I think!) what campaigns.csv do...

Legacy camera mode?
The Editor PDF Guide states: The map is rotated by 90 degrees and 1 hex is chopped off every row in order to adapt PzC1 map shape to PzC2. In the future, we will provide a legacy camera mode, so that in game the map looks the same way as in PzC1. Is there such a beast and how would I get it? Importi...

Ground only view?
There is an air mode but is there a ground mode (hide or obscure air units)? I've searched but not found a hotkey or view option to do this. I find the air units obscure the ground units and make the screen too busy.

Re: IS-3
I have used a few in the Red Dawn campaign but you would only get to fight against them, not with them, and only in later scenarios.

Re: Maelstrom - US Campaign (2023)
Thank you, fgiannet, for your kind words and feedback. I made this campaign a long time ago but I remember the fun of doing the historical research and designing the scenarios from that. I certainly didn't delve deeply into the battles and the campaigns but I'm glad enough history is coming through ...

Re: Maelstrom - US Campaign (2023)
Thanks for your feedback for the campaign so far. I originally had the historical data in the briefings but decided to move them to the encyclopedia to save space. If players want to read them, they can, or just play the game. I haven't checked the longer names but will. Thanks for the tip.

I am unsure what you mean in that post script but please remember your own request to not politicise this thread. To be clear, any scenario or campaign that I create with this hyperthetical basis will be completely ahistorical and void of any comment on the military abilities of the historical force...

Re: Red Dawn campaign (2023)
I can't find it anywhere on this board but in the dim recesses of my memory I think I might have done an MP of 'Unleash the Bear' where the Soviets attack soon after taking Berlin. I think it would make a good MP scenario, so I will probably work on that after 'Evil Empire'.

Re: Red Dawn campaign (2023)
Agreed. Though I do still have access to one old MP file that is balanced for it. Something about "The Evil Empire Strikes Back." Not sure if it is up to date or not, but it was nice. Yes, you're right - I am in the process of hot-seating it to make sure it has at least some balance and w...

Re: Red Dawn campaign (2023)
The scenarios played individually would need a lot of tweaking and balancing. The Soviets are beefed up a lot to compensate for the AI.

Re: Setup switchable units in alternate mode.
If you mean a custom scenario, set the 88 as an AT unit, rather than AD. Both are switchable. You can't determine what the AI will do with it but it will start in AT position.

Re: Maelstrom - US Campaign (2023)
Check your setup - there seems to be another mod running with the Maelstrom mod. I just played the first scenario through with only Maelstrom loaded and it went as it should have - on to Kasserine.

Re: Red Dawn campaign (2023)
A very interesting idea but it would require a whole new campaign. The Soviet player would be expected to win, so I can't just 'reverse' each scenario. Hmmm, brain cogs turning...
