Thank you Luis for taking up the subject

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

Well, few people install the latest version and play - some use much older engines

I only have something like this - I don't know if it will be useful to you...

:howdy @ Luis It seems that the new game engine takes information about core units from a different place than Suite, or at least from a different place than previous game engines If you look at the drawing in my previous post https://forum.open-general.com/userfiles/Sym_core1.jpg - you will see tha...

:howdy There is a problem with the last engine from February 2025 It consists in the fact that in a large part of the campaign in the Gustlik e-file - core units in the first scenario are replaced with aux units I will show this on the example of the G05 BLITZKRIEG campaign by Gustlik v.5.4 First, a...

Are you considering - editions in the wrong Suite? (recent confusion with versions)
Can this be run normally in previous versions of the game?

I can tell you how it was when Win 7 was no longer supported First notifications that the system is not supported, then security messages Not much later, information from installed applications "Change the system because it cannot be updated" - e.g. browser Next - "update the system t...

You're right Luis set some game windows to permanent, and others can be scaled The problem that Semkot writes about --> is the problem of a monitor that is too small (screen size expressed in inches) at native resolution (Full HD) If we assume that on a 24-inch monitor, a 1920x1080px image is clearl...

Luis,

Do I understand correctly? A player can only have 15 leaders at most First thing to understand clearly is that we speak about leaders somehow ambiguously. Each player has 15 leaders slots, but that player can have more than 15 units having a leader, if several units share the same slot. When do uni...

Thank you very much for your patience with me

Do I understand correctly?

If one player - plays 2, 3...

:howdy Oh, these language barriers The question was --> whether using .map and .scen files (included in CC) you can download them and play in a "clean" PG2 (of course, having the files in the right directories - including - .shp files) I also understand that you intend to delete files that...

:howdy ... Regarding the CC Pack subfolders, I think that I'll simple add the converted cam/scn/map files to OG format (xcam , xscn) so no more issues due to missing .map files, and the package will also be useful for anyone wanting to play them with PG2. I'll also add the custom .map files (not inc...

Looking back, it can be said that it is not PEG, but OG as a continuation of PG2 that is alive ...

Luis, if you are already reminiscing about the old days - please - tell me --> How did it happen that you started making a new game engine, an alternative to PG2?

sympatyk

Thank you very much Luis for such a comprehensive explanation
I've seen unfinished campaigns but the last scenarios were missing (not in the middle of the campaign)

sympatyk

The three .map files are missing the most.

And the campaign in Suite looks like this --> missing names of some scenarios
Each CC is a mini e-file

Suite set up like this

sympatyk

:howdy Yes, it works for "normal" PG2 campaigns However, some campaigns (e.g. CC08) have ns_name.map prefixes and there are no such files --> with a "clean" installation, some scenarios will not start http://www.opengeneral.pl/sympatyk/brak_mapCC8.jpg http://www.opengeneral.pl/sy...

sympatyk

:howdy Maybe you want the previous version of the Suite? I forgot that I already shared it before This Suite is from 01.01.2024 (it should be compatible with your game engine) It is best to save it under a different name ... and copy it to the main game directory https://drive.google.com/file/d/14-C...

The map problem, it recurs from time to time and concerns old e-files Campaigns with .cam files cannot download maps in .jpg, .png format on their own ...

I mean anyone who wants to play campaigns that reference PG2 (.shp, .map files) I forgot to say - you also need the MAPFILES directory (with all the .map files) For a specific campaign --> all = needed for this campaign (applies to .map and jpg) --> so if you have all --> you can open any campaign m...
