Bonus difficulties for the DLC´s?
Posted: Sat Aug 18, 2012 3:57 pm
I just completed DLC 39´ on field marshall but it did not unlock any of the bonus difficulties. Do they not exist for the DLC´s?
If you've installed 1.10 your other option is to simply mod one of the other difficulties to mimic the bonus difficulty of your choice (or a custom difficulty - I'm playing FM with +1 allied strength.) The file is diff.pzdat and it's in your panzer corp\data folder:slb79 wrote:run regedit navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/software/slitherine/panzer corps and modify the ShowBonusLevels entry to 1. If you don't have knowledge of how the registry works, avoid this way because if you do anything wrong you may damadge your computer.

Well said! Playing Rommel now in GC '39 and enjoying it tremendously. Half-prestige is no joke!Kamerer wrote:I suggest editing the registry. Playing the vanilla to get it was to me, far too tedious. Rommel makes things much more interesting. Manstien is great if you are a Masochist; but if not, I'd stick with Rommel.
A modified Manstein is really cool. You can set all the unit max strengths to 7 which gives most units a strength of 12. There are a good amount of units that are still strength 16+ but not as rough as a full Manstein.jaggy wrote:Well said! Playing Rommel now in GC '39 and enjoying it tremendously.

The only scenario that needs to be played on FM is the last one.muftugil wrote: Sat Sep 19, 2020 8:10 pm I finished the main campaign on FM but I could not get and DV so it did not unlock themjust found out actually it needs to be DV pretty much across the board. So tough
I finally unlocked the extra difficulties just last week. It was one of my vacation goals. It took several tries.dalfrede wrote: Sat Sep 19, 2020 10:05 pmThe only scenario that needs to be played on FM is the last one.muftugil wrote: Sat Sep 19, 2020 8:10 pm I finished the main campaign on FM but I could not get and DV so it did not unlock themjust found out actually it needs to be DV pretty much across the board.

Not even that, after the final turn you have the option to switch difficulties to FM and that will unlock when I last tested it.dalfrede wrote: Sat Sep 19, 2020 10:05 pmThe only scenario that needs to be played on FM is the last one.muftugil wrote: Sat Sep 19, 2020 8:10 pm I finished the main campaign on FM but I could not get and DV so it did not unlock themjust found out actually it needs to be DV pretty much across the board.

It does not work on any of the Grand Campaigns, it needs to happen on either Vanilla Campaign, Africa Corps, Allied Corps, or Soviet Corpshuckc wrote: Sun Sep 20, 2020 2:06 pmNot even that, after the final turn you have the option to switch difficulties to FM and that will unlock when I last tested it.dalfrede wrote: Sat Sep 19, 2020 10:05 pmThe only scenario that needs to be played on FM is the last one.muftugil wrote: Sat Sep 19, 2020 8:10 pm I finished the main campaign on FM but I could not get and DV so it did not unlock themjust found out actually it needs to be DV pretty much across the board.

Thanks for the feedback on this goose_2, hucks, and dalfrede. I am at India in AK at FM difficulty so maybe I can try and push for that. Fingers crossed. So glad to see others are also still enjoying this gamegoose_2 wrote: Mon Sep 21, 2020 12:02 pmIt does not work on any of the Grand Campaigns, it needs to happen on either Vanilla Campaign, Africa Corps, Allied Corps, or Soviet Corps
