User-created Alexander Campaign (Historical) issue

Post by rbodleyscott »

It has come to light that because the campaign folder name of vakarr's "Alexander the Great (Historical)" campaign was the same as the folder name of the vanilla "Alexander the Great (what if?)" campaign, the game was opening vakarr's campaign when the vanilla campaign was selected.

A new version has been uploaded on to the FTP that has a different folder name.

If you have the old version on your system, you can simply change the folder name from

/Documents/My Games/FieldOfGlory2/CAMPAIGNS/AlexanderCampaign

to

/Documents/My Games/FieldOfGlory2/CAMPAIGNS/AlexanderCampaign2

which solves the issue.

(DO NOT RENAME THE ONE IN THE MAIN GAME BUILD)

You do not need to download the new version of vakarr's campaign. If you have already done so, you will need to delete

/Documents/My Games/FieldOfGlory2/CAMPAIGNS/AlexanderCampaign

in order for the vanilla "Alexander the Great (what if?)" campaign to work correctly.

Good point, sorry for any inconvenience. It should work correctly if you change the folder name back until you finish the campaign.

Understood. It is fairly trivial to swap back folder names until you have finished the campaign then back again, but giving the heads up.
