Ah... Ok, it is needed to edit the first scenario of the campaign...
By the way, in the "Multipurpose Units Thread" you will find a slightly improved version of the German Marine Infanterie icon, if you are interested...

I made just a quick test... Opened the Poznan scenario (the first one in the GC39 campaign, the Nikivdd upgraded version) with the Scenario Editor and added the Italian nation to Axis side and enabled "Share Flags". But the result is not the expected. When attempted to purchase an Italian units, the game said that there was not available slots for it... May be I am doing something wrong or there is something more to be changed in the editor?

Sorry, I cannot answer your question. I have used this fonction in scenario I made without any trouble. Maybe try with another simple scenario not of a campaign or another mod.
I have made a test with a campaign to see how you can deploy boat in a campaign (it was not simple) :

Its a pity... I think it is related with the matter that units of the new Nation are taken as auxiliaries and not core units. By the way I was trying to deploy a land unit, not a naval one, may be this has also something to do.

Here is a modification of the panzer_taskwindow_02_03 (I had to make a retouch to be politically correct, look below and to the right) :

To guille1434: I am amazed that you did not know this option("share flags") very usefull to play with "minor" nations.

I've tried the WaffenSS MOD and I can't get it to work with any of the GC nor in any scenarios

WaffenSS and Kriegsmarine are new nations and are not included in the original scenarios.
Edit a scenario and add the nation you want with share flags.
Here is for example the Ardennes Scenario with WaffenSS (Kriegsmarine is more complicated) :

Hello 53rdVaInf:

I just asked Nikivdd, because I wanted to add a new nation in his upgraded Grand campaign mod, and he told me the secret: you have to open the campaign.dat present in that campaign directory file using Excel and edit the Nation cell... In that cell, for Panzer Corps Grand Campaign the default value is 0 (0 is the nation number assigned to Germany). I wanted to add Italy as a warring nation for the Axis side, so I changed the "0" value to 0,5 (meaning Germany and Italy). Besides of that I opened the first scenario in the campaign (in this case it is called Poznan) and enabled the "share flags" option (this will allow you to purchase Italian units in German flagged hexes) and enabled Italy as a nation fighting for the Axis side. This options are shown and explained in this thread, some postings up.

In your case, you will have to add the number which is given to the SS Nation instead of the 5 I added for Italy

I attach here a screenshot of the edited campaign.dat file for you to see...
I hope it helps you...

Aim to be that Armoured Trains become purchasable ?

[guille1434]

...And the Kriegsmarine also was in charge of shore batteries and some railroad artillery units... Time to expand its unit roster!

[terminator]

I would prefer warships for Kriegsmarine

PS : Attacksub is now corrected , that's great news for my mod !

Hi,
Your Waffen-SS mod and Kriegsmarine mod is very atractive. I like to play campaigns with these mods. Can you give me answers to my two questions:
1) How I must install this mods ?
2) Can I play with W-SS mod GrandCampaign 39-45 ?

With best wishes

Hi,
Thank you for the compliments.
Playing the campaigns with WaffenSS should be interesting.
To answer your first question : do you know how to use GME (Generic Mod Enabler) ?
Look here : http://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtop ... 47&t=27158

[AK1962]

Hi,
thank you very much for answer. Sorry about my bad english and my very incompetent knowledges about IT-stuff
Of course I know GME mod installer - I have there installed following mods - Amulet, Battlefield and WW of II.
Must I do folder named W-SS in Slitherine/PanzerCorps/Mods or I must do folder named W-SS in MyDocuments/PanzerCorps/Mods ? I never installed such mini-mods before. And I´m afraid that I will do anything very wrong. With Amulet and Battlefield was installing easy.

With regards

Hi,
This mod is called mini--mod only because of its small size. It is a mod as the others.
Yes, you must create a folder named W-SS in Slitherine/PanzerCorps/Mods :

MyDocuments/PanzerCorps/Mods for SAVE and SCENARIO ?

For the GrandCampaigns,
Make a copy of the campaign files in the Mod folder and make the modifications in the Mod folder !
You have to add the new nation to the campaign file. Later, edit every scenario and add the new nation and enabled "share flags" (look at the post of guille1434 before).
I will make a test

[terminator]
