sympatyk

What causes problems with some old campaigns? Answer this - differences in the structure and saving of scenario files created for PG2 and currently for OG To properly play old campaigns (in PG2) you need: - scenario (.scn file), - map (file name.map and file .shp and file .txt) However, to play curr...

sympatyk

For some reason i thought those campaigns would show up on the Campaign Catalog. Is there any way to make all the "repository" campaigns show up in one place? Theoretically it is possible ... and stay on accepting the word "theoretically" Do you understand what an e-file is? -->...

Ah, you see, it was a misunderstanding anyway...
I thought you were generating AAR after playing the scenario, and you meant AAR at the beginning of the scenario

sympatyk

You should check the error under the latest game engine and report the error
I think Luis will not fix errors in the previous game engine

sympatyk

:howdy I don't know if we understand each other well .. (I probably wrote it imprecisely) You have to open the saved game in the latest exe engine and generate the report again --> If at the time of your victory there were enemy units left on the map (Player 2 France, Serbia) --> they should be show...

- Draw map like it is now and weather can change ground condition during scenario.

This is probably the best and most universal option

Congratulations on drawing this map from scratch

sympatyk

No, no --> I'm talking about a map made completely from scratch, on a different scale than the previous one. All the glory to you (Zorin only made this non-standard, autumn landscape)
How long did you work on this map? - you considered "mud roads", right?

In your e-file you can do whatever you want ...

sympatyk

:howdy IMHO "Flaks" should be the main (if only) category of AA armament in OG. Except maybe for some very specific cases like surface-to-air missiles or such. I really don't know why "Panzer General" games installed that dual system, but in my humble opinion it's not a good syst...

:howdy Fixing a bug appearing all core units as aux units (found in Gustlik Blitz cam) Thank you very much :bow :bow :bow The problem with changing basic units to auxiliary units - when loading the first scenario in many old campaigns has been fixed --> now everything is fine :yes :notworthy

sympatyk

We are talking about two different things --> you control the allocation of leaders, and I do not do that ... these were just my observations for playing old campaigns, without controlling leaders (accepting without rejecting and without assigning)

sympatyk

:howdy Regarding leaders - I have had the distinct impression (for a long time now) that the drawing (random assignment) when receiving a new leader is strange It is always the case that we receive several leaders that we have already received --> groups are formed --> e.g. leader x 3, next x4, next...

You don't have to hurry
It is important to manage to make a stable version of the game engine
