How to use CropHay CropRye CropWheat in Northern Europe?

[locustmustdie]

Only found CropHayhalf,CropRyehalf,CropWheathalf are available in Middle East mode.
But they aren’t available in other region mode.
BTW is it possible to add object like Cathedral in later version?

They are left over from an earlier alpha pass, but not used in the release game.

Not likely, but you could use the one from Pike and Shot, it should look correct for the Medieval era.

Thanks Richard!
But will it display correctly on computers of those have not modded the objects in game folder?
Make it contained in the community content? And let the downloaders copy/paste it to the supposed location manually?

No

They won't need to copy anything manually if you make an extra object set e.g. (PikeAndShot) and incorporate it into your user created "campaign" folder. (NOT into the main build)

The modding system allows almost any game files to be incorporated in a user content folder, and they can then be used by the scenarios in that folder.

The chart at the end of the following document shows where it goes in the folder tree.

Here, I have done an example for you:

Obviously, you put it in /Documents/My Games/FieldOfGloryMedieval/CAMPAIGNS, and then load that folder in the editor. It will allow you to add the Cathedral object to scenarios in that folder, and they can then be accessed automatically in the scenarios by anyone who has downloaded the folder.

Appreciated！Very helpful.

Appreciated！Very helpful.

The objects folder will also need to contain any texture files that the Cathedral uses. To get an idea of how it all works download my Panormus scenario, where I have used several terrain objects from the Battle Academy game.

Hi Paul! I’ve downloaded it,all the objects in /OBJECTS folder were migrated from other games？

All the added objects are from Slitherine's Battle Academy WW2 game. It uses a very similar engine to FoG2, so they work without any modification, apart from a little editing of the Objects.txt files.

The only other thing I had to do was resize the objects in the Editor, using the HM and End keys, as the Battle Academy objects are naturally much larger than FoG2 objects.

Will objects in “Great Battles Medieval” work find in FoG2M？

I don't know, I have no knowledge of that game.

Likewise. And I don't have access to a build to check as it isn't on STEAM.

IIRC the 3D files in GBM were Granny files, and so are not compatible. Sorry!
