Re-Installing Panzer Corps + DLCs on a new system

Post by Longasc »

I am about to get a new system (should arrive tomorrow) and wonder how to reinstall Panzer Corps - and in which order.

I own: Basically, everything

Panzer Corps
PzC Afrika Corps
Allied Corps
+all DLCs
+ all DLCs as Megapack
+ and downloaded patch 1.21.
Well, I could just copy over my Panzer Corps directory, but I want to install clean.

But how would you install all that and enter serials? Or should I just install this, that and then log in to my Slitherine/Matrix account to register all my serials?

1. Panzer Corps 1.00
2. DLC's 39,40,41,42,43 East, 44 East and 45 East
3. Afrika Korps
4. DLC 42-43 West and 44 West
5. Patch 1.13 or DLC 45 West

was suggested my user tmiranda somewhere on this forum.

I guess I then could do...

1. Panzer Corps
2. Afrika Corps
3. DLC Megapack
4. Allied Corps
5. Patch 1.21?

Your last list looks fine to me, the main question is if you want to install the GC's separately or with the MegaPack?

I think there are only two basic things to watch out for:

1) the GC's require PzC or one of the expansions (AK, AC) already installed.

2) install 1.21 last, it should basically overwrite everything that isn't up to spec at that point.

I have noticed that if you have patch 1.11 or later, when Afrika is installed, it rewrites patch 1.10 and stuffs all your saves etc. so you should install in "Patch order"

PzC Wehrmacht is 1.00
GC 39-40 are 1.04
GC 41-42, 43-45 East are 1.05
Afrika is 1.10
GC 42-44 West are 1.11
GC 45 West is 1.13
Mega Pack is 1.14
Allied Corps is 1.20
latest patch is 1.21

so I suggest this order:

PzC Wehrmacht
GC 39 (and patch 1.04)
GC 40
GC 41 (and patch 1.05)
GC 42
GC 43 East
GC 44 East
GC 45 East
Afrika Korps 1.10
GC 42-3 West (and patch 1.11)
GC 44 West
Mega Pack (no need to install GC45W, this will be done for you) (and patch 1.14)
Allied Corps 1.20
Patch 1.21.

If you don't want to install everything:
PzC Wehr 1.00
PzC AK 1.10
Megapack 1.14
PzC Allies 1.20
Newest Patch

There is absolutely no point in installing the single DLC's if you are installing the Mega Pack as well as it contains all the DLCs already. It doesn't hurt to do it but it just takes longer and clutter your uninstall list with more entries.
