Question about mods and the update

I have been playing the Panzer General mod, whcih is FANTASTIC by the way, and using the generic mod enabler. Will the update effect these?

The update will replace the campaign file, at least.
So if I were you, I would deactivate the mod before upgrading. And then I would activate it again.
For sure, you should ask this to rezaf on his thread.

VPaulus is right, of course.
If you haven't used the Genetic Mod Enabler, you'll have to reinstall the mod after upgrading, which you should do using GME, because it'l overwrite the (now updated) equipment file, thus undoing the changes made by the patch.
If you have used GME, just disable PG Classic, install the patch, and then re-enable it.

The 1.01 release has given me some homework on top, as I was busy doing changes to the equipment file as well and now have to make sure it plays well with 1.01, but I'll get to it.

Btw., thanks for playing PG Classic MaryWard. :)

I really like the mod but I have some observations if you want feedback. I'm not sure where to post them.

Also (as I found out just a bit ago) if you have added units to the E-File they can now all be Free French units.
