thanks
OK, it may seem confusing but it is actually quite simple. Please follow these steps:
1. Find your Panzer Corps installation folder. If you installed it anywhere other than "program files.../" then you have a higher chance of success.
2. Creat a New Folder somewhere (preferably not in Program Files...). Call it Panzer Corps Ostfront.
3. Copy everything (every file and folder) from you original Panzer Corps folder to the new folder.
4. Unrar the mod into this folder so that it overwrites all the original files.
It would be best to unrar the folder into a temporary location and then copy it in to so that you can see that you have copied all the files correctly.
5. Locate Panzercorps.exe in the new folder and run it to start the game.
6. If you know how, create a shortcut to Panzercorps.exe and copy it to your desktop and use this to run it in the future.
Be warned, this is a tough set of campaigns. I'm playing through the 1943 - 45 Gotterdamerung campagn now, and am having to rethink my strategies.

Assuming you have installed it as per my instructions above your post, when you run it you should see the Ostfront Menu screen instead of the regular PC/AK/AC screen(s).
1. Click new game.
2. Choose one of the four menu options (north, central, south or Gotterdamarung)
3. Click play.
4. Get beaten to a bloody pulp by the Red Army.
5. Come back for more.
If you haven't got as far as (1) then revisit my post above yours. Let me know where you are "stuck" - it is worthwhile to persevere with this excellent mod.

You aren't kidding... They are very challenging. I start on a easier setting to get a feel for the scenario and then I go normal and get beat....
However, I love the effort and work they did and enjoy it...

I did what your instructions said and it is NOT overwriting, it adds its own folder called dmp ostfront add-on 4.0. so it still will not work

You have to copy the
contents of the DMP folder, not the folder itself. You then overwrite the files and folders that in the new directory you created with the files and folders from the DMP folder.

http://www.designmodproject.de/jdownloa ... ont-add-on) DMP's add-ons are always much harder and challenge than the original game itself in my opinion, the north and middle campaign contain several missions I had to replay for several times. I'm still playing with the south army, and will move on to this one as soon as I finish it.
Hi I tried to register and always said the username is not available, I tried with many differents usernames, some ridiculous to see if was only bad luck choosing it, but the result is the same so say the same that the username is used and try another, I think something is wrong, somebody can help me in this?
Thanks.
Josua.
