Custom campaign - Finland in WW 2 (v1.1 released 15.09.2016)

[rafdobrowolski]

Is this campaign playable or is Uhu still working on fixing it? Was looking forward to downloading it!

[timberwolf15]

To get this to work you change the .doc file extension to .zip

[timberwolf15]

Then you find the Scenarios folder in the unzipped folder which is Finland in War 2
inside of this folder are many folders one is Finland in War and another one is Scenarios

[timberwolf15]

Then you copy the scenarios folder into the folder Finland in War and put this entire folder Finland in war 2 into the mods folder

The finland in war folder is in the Campaigns folder

Ok I tried the first scenario in my opinion personal comment it is not playable for the following reasons some of which is I'm to picky but anyway,

This type of stuff occurs

Seems the editor person has made custom graphics etc. When a bridge blows up which is another issue it looks cooler but the engineer unit does not move out of the hex until the start of the next turn this auto warps there but more importantly this explosion graphic caused immense lag and lasted for 3 turns at which time I decided to delete this mod/campaign/ thing off of my computer. Perhaps a reboot would have fixed this along with a reload of a saved game who knows .. I do not want to try to figure this out ... in addition grenade sounds do not work arty sounds do bridges being blown up no sound. Also the first scenario the Russians move first I lost one of the supply trucks before I could move it or any of my units so I restarted the scenario a headache in itself the truck got attacked again and it got to a strength of only 1. I did get both trucks out but then the popup that happens has generic default text and does not inform you of anything but if ya pay attention you get 4 landcp and about 50 resources if you get the 2nd truck out a popup occurs and it explains you get 2 more land cp and 20 resources this is great except for it costs you constant resources to maintain your units in combat to the extent that you cannot do much of anything with the land cp you have I did buy two AT guns and was dealing with the tank. Had the designer not fooled with the sound and graphic files I think personally this could have been a worthwhile to download in addition to play testing it enough to notice the flawed popups. For example, too, the truck evac which is a Secondary objective mentions the player gets resources but actually the player gets land cp AND resources

This shows its the next turn the lag is so horrendous you slow motion click on a unit and slowly click to tell it to attack then slowly the attack happens all the while this loud noise and blinding graphic serenades you ...

The problem are the very old files effect.txt and maybe effectSequences.txt...

Keeps only the unit.csv file in the Data folder (apparently removes all other old useless text files)

I downloaded it and finally figured out how to install it. Unfortunately, once I got into the mod, and launched the firsrt scenario of the campaign, it took FOREVER to laod, and never loaded, sicne I just shut down the game. Any thoughts on the impossibly long load time? I know I had this happen with the Spanish Prelud Mod that LNDavoust made, and there was a simple fix. Don't know what it woudl be for this one....

Played through the campaign, and it ends jsut prior to the start of the continuation war. Also, one tiny irritation was the saves that occured after each turn. I had hundreds of saved files i just deleted out of the saved games folder in the mod.

HI
I have seen that there is a new version of this mod is avaible and therfore I tried it out.
On the first sight it seems to work. But than I realized, I can't deploy any units!
Is this the intention?? The scenario is although hard enough, so I don't believe this really, but what is the mistake?

[LNDavoust]

I played the first two scens and I could deploy units without problems. In fact, the unique bugs i found were a couple of orphan events (although the linked rewards kinda worked). Strange

I tried to start the campaign with "the Gabe Mod", it works and I could deploy units. I think the error is in the fin war mod hidden!
I think I play the campaign through with the gabe mod.

[LNDavoust]

Happy you find a way to bypass the problem, McLeoudx

By curiosity. I played the first two and a half scenario and found little difference with the official finnish DLC. Does this change further in the mod?

I'm also a bit curious with the differences with the new Bruck&Erik finnish campaign, I don't know if those are different campaigns, reduxes or what. Any insight?

You know, I did not see too much of a difference, but I have not played the official campaign in a while. Seemed to follow the same trajectory, with a few small changes.

I've played the first two or three scens, too, and yeah, besides some minor stat changes and a few new texts/popups I did not notice anything out of the ordinary compared to vanilla. But the mod's old, who knows how it was intended to play?

[LNDavoust]

Well, then maybe i will wait to see what Bru and Erik are doing to decide will campaign i will play Thanks for answering, guys.
