The efile has been updated with many new units and a handful of icons. Most notably the Weltkrieg campaign has been updated and you can play more scenarios. Efile version: 04 February 2023.

You'll find the link to the dropbox download in the first post. Have fun :howdy

I started creating the initial 4 scenarios for OPERATION SUVOROV. On Gustlik's efil. Such an introduction to the conflict. I am using maps: 1398, 1065, 1416 and 1064. Although the action takes place in late December/early January, you have to settle for a summer landscape (by the way, these maps taking into account a few more of those Arctic environs from the set of maps you created appeal to me the most - because of the color scheme). It looks a little strange against the winter colors of the units.
What surprised me both maps of Arkhangelsk have differences between them, the location of forests or additional villages. Why such a difference?

PS. on map 1065 I found an error - field 21,38 is clear instead of town.

What else I miss - as there are blown-up fields in the game, or rather graphics, I miss a separate graphic for the blown-up field in the case of a city. For example, in the form of some ruins.

In general, I will agree with what you wrote in the post. Yes, OG is a very big simplification, but I believe that some objective comparable values can be found.
When i started with the efile i was dreaming of an efile that goes from WW1 until late Cold War. But that is not possible. PG2/OG was never made for something like this.
I keep dreaming of such an eiflu or OG-style game where this will be possible.
When there are no new German units in the 50s, the player can never upgrade the core units because everything is there already? Even in 1948 or 1949 the German would have all these powerful prototypes.
The campaign takes place in 1955 and only in that year so too much choice for upgrading will not be great. In Gustlik's efil, the Soviets get only a few new units during this period. And they don't have any amphibious transport (like the ZiS-485).... The German side, on the other hand, will get Marders and Leopards, FH70, LARS-1 and a few other Cold War units later in the campaign. But a big choice is not available.

As for yet differences between the efifls, in the case of Efile Gustlik the selection of equipment and units for the Spanish sides 1936-1939 is very small - practically overlapping 1 to 1 with what was in the original PG2. In the case of Efile Atomic is much more attractive so such a Condor Legion campaign would be more interesting in this respect. And let's not forget the Italians, they have more too.

You also have very strong attach:

Special Munition -> +3 dice to hit
Fast Entrench -> +3 terrain base trench
Forward Observer -> +4 attak to guns firing
Air Defense -> +3 AA/AD
Anti Tank -> +3 HA

Especially FE (he seems to give plus 7 ent for infantry in the city after the first turn) and FO. SM also rather quite strong. AD and AT moderately strong.

It is your choice. If you want the campaign to take place in the winter months, using winter icons, but no winter maps, it will look strange. We will hardly get any new maps nowadays, so we have to make the best out of the maps we have. Personally i'd use default icons under these conditions (and do so in the winter one scenario that uses a summer map).

The difference is, because one map was made years after the other and got some updates. Like the airfield on Yagodnik island. The trees are just artistic impressions anyway :lol

That is not a big problem. Many maps have small errors in the mapx files, but everything can be reparied in the scenario file :yes

But that is on game level an not efile level? The craters simply show a blown hex, no matter the terrain. I guess it is much to late to change anything here. Maybe at the start of OG development it would have been possible to add more variety to the blown hex. But there are also many different city grafics and the various maps, so it would not look good an all i guess.

If i set the values to 2, the effect would be barely noticable in the game. Csaba also said that these attachments should start with 3 or 4 because otherwise the effect would be too small.
Forward Observer got 4 because nobody ever uses it and so it must be more attractive for the same price as the others.

Keep in mind that not the unit with the Forward observer attachment gets the bonus, but your indirect fire units (such as artillery) that shoot on the enemy that is adjecent to your unit with the attachment.

So it is not easy to bring the attachment into battle. And since a player often wants to take out enemy AD and artillery with own artillery, you have to get next to these enemy units first. But of course enemy AD and artillery is often positioned behind other enemy units.
A recon with a lot of movement and superior movement leader is helpful, but otherwise it is hard to make good use of the FO attachment in my opinion.
But yeah, for a small airborne team with a airborne mortar is can be also helpful i guess (Even if the overall effect is not the biggest).

Aha, now I understand, up to now I tried to use the forward observer like a [C] unit. But this is great news for me because my normal attack procedure is nearing AD and artillery defended e.g. :grumpy airfields by bringing one of my far reaching guns into position to attack the AD then attacking it and bringing in the airforce and the Brandenburger. Done this in appropriate order will be very helpful for me.

I worked on graphics for the campaign. Since I do poorly with Gimp I work in Power Point, where the advantage is that the program always shows me picture location and such. And the fact that I can have a graphic in one slide, and a description of the introduction to the mission in another, and descriptions for the victory in a third.
On the right the intro to the last mission in the Legion Condor campaign - here the work on all intros is practically finished. I have added the status of the Franco's Force. You can also see the entire campaign trail. On the bottom right is also the commander's current military rank.
And on the left is the first draft for Operation Suvorov.

And suddenly it turns out that in the place where I placed a field airfield in the first mission in the next mission (on a newer map) grows a forest.

Probably at the game level and at the file level. The graphics are in hex_marks, but you would probably have to implement at the game level an exception handling the CITY area. Since other exceptions can be made it is still possible to implement this one as well.

Is the reason for not using FO is that a large portion of players don't know exactly how it works? Besides, with more units with FA next to the target this bonus scales up as far as I know.

Probably so. But also because it is not so easy to bring the attachment into battle on a tactical level. I guess the player often wants to engage enemy artillery and AD with own artillery. But most likely the enemy artillery and AD units are defended by other enemy units and you have to get past them with the forward observer :dunno

I disagree that it is so hard to use this addition during a battle. FO work on all enemy land units.

Have you perhaps reviewed this topic on the behavior of different versions of AI? - https://forum.opengeneral.pl/kampanie-w ... je/3335/0/
And my later comments and conclusions after a short testing of AI version 3.0?

As I will soon have 1000 posts on the Polish OG forum I would like to celebrate this by playing with short descriptions of either of your campaigns: ATOMIC BLITZKRIEG or ATOMIC WELTKRIEG. Which one do you recommend?

Since there was never a official post about the features of AI 3.0 i will stick to 2.0. Personally i don't think it matters much anyway. Maybe there are some changes, but i doubt it will add to the fun :dunno I never had more fun playing OG than these days!
Generally i read every post in the polish forum. It is the most active forum :cool

I would always recommend the WELTKRIEG campaign. It's my best campaign by far and makes best use of the efile. But of course it is very long and big.

(I have to play Blitzkrieg myself on day again when i have the time. I have to check if everything is ok after so many changes to the units in the efile. I swapped around many units, i hope without mistakes :lol )

EDIT: One question, why do you wanto to use two Arkhangelsk maps instead of one?

Just for fun :lol For those who are at Discord. You can use the Midjourney AI to create pictures. Just google it and join the channel. In few years an AI can create all missing icons :lol
The AI is pretty good, but most pictures look like videogame artwork. I gave some prompts for pixel tanks and as comparison i'll add "cuban colonial style warehouses".

Indeed a question of personal tactics style. What works for me is having 1 better 2 far reaching guns in reach of the target, find an appropriate place to land the Brandenburger FO near AD and/or another valuable target, then eliminate the AD and let the airforce do the rest on now uncovered units. Normally the FO will survive especially when they get assistance from other Brandenburgers. :grumpy

Do you know the Command & Conquer series of games? It was there that such a solution was introduced in several missions: at the beginning only a small part of the map was available, and in order to unlock access to the rest of the map (it expanded) then you had to complete certain objectives and tasks. I refer to this. In the first mission, during a snowstorm, the player infiltrates and destroys the German fortification line, and then in the next mission carries out a general attack.

It used to be more active than it is now, but now only a few dozen people remain. But at least something is happening.
In general, sometimes I feel that the AI on version 3.0, that it plays generally better than earlier versions. But it also has a downside, the computer does not always want to attack. Still, it would be useful to improve the intelligence of the computer in the game. I heard that through computer teaching, the AI was taught to play Sstarcraft 2 in such a way that it always beat the best players and used previously unknown unit combinations. I wonder if this could be tried with Open General. For it to play better, not necessarily to be unbeatable.

I know and know about Midjourney AI. Very interesting things can be created. Only Midjourney requires you to have an account on Discord, right? How does it work in practice?
Maybe you've also heard of NVIDIA Canvas - https://www.nvidia.com/pl-pl/studio/canvas/?

I think that such AI solutions can be primarily used for the generation of new maps. Maybe more options appear with it: one map but in several versions: winter, summer or spring/autumn. All you need is hex information and a set of graphical elements like houses or trees.

These tank graphics are very reminiscent of the pixel-art graphics

I played C&C as a kid, but that was 25 years ago or something like that. I don't remember anything :lol
But i understand what you are doing. The grand scheme of things is revealed to the player after the first mission.
Personally i would always use the same map though.

Yes, Midjourney requires a Discord account. It works like any other channel you can join, like the OG / ATOMIC channel (link in first post). There are some sub-channels where the AI is present as a bot. Then you can give prompts and the AI creates the picture. It is also possible to feed the AI with a picture, so maybe i will try to feed a map and then see what happens. But i don't think the results will be useful. The AI don't know what a video game map is, it just sees the picture. Guess i have to try feeding the AI with a map and it should create versions for winter and autumn.

Results with human faces are much better because there must have been a lot of training data.
I don't know the NVIDIA AI. The only other one i tried was Stable Diffusion.
But generally i was only looking for some input for the two LEGO role playing games i play, Star Wars and Pirates :lol :lol

Okay, so i decided to create 6 new 3K maps for the grand allied campaign. Three maps will be entirely new and 3 will be bigger versions of existing maps. Hope to finish these maps by the end of the year :ihope

- Ruhrgebiet, Germany
- Mareth, Tunisia
- Nordwind/Strasbourg, France
- Arnhem, Netherlands
- Emilia-Romagna, Italy
- Liepaja. Latvia

If new 3K maps from other map makers :howdy emerge miraculously, i will be happy to use them as well :cool
Okay - if I were to help you make these maps --> what would you expect?
I wrote "help" because I see that some of these maps have already been made/improved in the 2K version
That's why I see it this way --> You prepare the basics --> you define the area, drawing/map which will be the source/basis for further work (e.g. original map from World War II, etc.)

I also stipulate that I can withdraw (not finish the work) - I will try, but you can't count on me to do all the work for sure
Will you take the risk and accept these conditions?

Thanks for your post :howdy

The maps i mentioned i'll make myself. The Ruhrgebiet map i already started long ago a the map is like 40% finished. I just have to take it up again. For 3 maps i can use other maps as a base and i just have to enlarge it. Only Mareth and the Northern Italy map will be all new, but i have them planned already and studied the map resources and created the initial files.

My question would be: Is there a map that you think is missing from the game and you would like to play as a player? Or is there a map that you always wanted to create as a map maker? A 3150x3000 pixel map that you will have fun creating in classic style?

It's nice that you will make these maps yourself --> I thought you wanted help ...
I don't know if there's a map missing in your campaign - I can't judge that
Would I like to make a map?
On reflection - it seems that Alberich wrote about the winter maps of Arkhangelsk
If you have layers (cities, rivers, forest and others) for maps 1398 and 1065 - I'd love to use them --> creating from scratch - classic style - probably not an option
I had developed a procedure for switching from summer to winter map - however, the new version of Gimp has changed the menu area (there are different filters, there are new ones, some are removed) --> I will have to work out the procedure from the beginning ...

I meant, if in the time i work on the campaigns new (3K) maps by other map makers are released, i am happy to use them and integrate into the campaigns.
Maybe it was just a bad joke because i know nobody is working on 3K maps :lol

For example i made many maps of areas that i finde interesting, that have a interesting coast line for example.
So, for example, if you say "I want to create a new map of Casablanca" just for fun, i will see if i can use it in my campaigns. Like with the other 3K maps in my list. I think there are 4 by you and 2 by Spasteur if i remember correctly.

The 3K map of Arkhangelsk is a enlarged version of my small Arkhangelsk map. So there are two photoshop files with layers. I have to look into it when i am at home again tomorrow.

If you decide to share these layers with me as separate png or jpg files - I will be grateful - it will show your maps in winter version --> if you would like to see your other maps as winter - you can do that too --> I just need to develop a new one procedure for Gimp
Of course, as you wish

I just uploaded the file of the smaller map to Dropbox and sent you a pm with the link. Gimp should be able to open the Photoshop files. Please try it. The file is almost 50mb. The bigger map has almost 100mb.

Thank you very much
I'll start work

Of course 100MB is a lot --> you can upload only the layers you need --> forest, cities, roads, railway (map 1065)

For me, the Internet was a big obstacle (I had a portable LTE) - now I signed a contract from March for 400/40Mb fiber

Ok great!
Maybe you ask Alberich what he needs, but he uses both maps in his campaign. You will also notice some small differences between the maps.
I guess it is easier to start with the smaller map and see how it goes. Of course i can upload the other one later.

This is what the end result would look like. Do you have any comments?

It looks good for a conversion. Did you try grey roads like in the other winter maps?

As you wish - it can be grey. Bridges have to be done separately (road) ..
Something else?

It is not my wish. It was just a question if you tried it. If not, it is also ok.
Maybe Alberich can tell you what he needs for his campaign. And maybe this talk can be relocated into the maps thread :cool

If everything is layered --> the work itself needs more time to decide - what setting to choose (several settings seem good) --> then decide whether a little more contrast, color, etc.
Since there are no exactly the same maps --> converting each one, it's decisions again (despite using the same procedures - different color saturation will result - different distribution of white saturation after conversion)
I sent Alberisch a message - when he answers, not necessarily soon
Yes, if you can, we move this conversation to the topic of maps

Hello! There was a problem at the end of the "New York, New York" scenario. The game does not find the next scenario and crashes. I don't know how to attach a screenshot here. Sorry for the text I write through google translate

Welcome to the forum ward70 :howdy

Which campaign are you playing? Do you use the newest versions of both, Open General and the ATOMIC efile?

Wow nice! I am happy to see that you made it all the way to New York :cool

The next scenario after New York is still missing as well as the following scenarios. The campaign is still under construction and New York is the last scenario that is finished. It will take me some time to create the needed maps and scenarios.

ward70 wrote: 2023-03-31 11:11, Friday I play for fun, so the settings are as simple as possible. First I got to 59 campaign scenarios with the old e-file. After the update, I started over with a new e-file, but the history was not updated and it turned out to be the 60th campaign scenario.
It happens when the campaign is under construction and the path is altered. Then some connections between scenarios get screwed up and it even can happen that the campaign starts again. For example, i will add a new Scotland scenario between London and Scapa Flow and that will change the scenario number of the following scenarios.
Since the campaign is so big and long construction takes 2 years or so. Once the campaign is finished, everything will be fine :cool

Which are your favorite scenarios/maps?

I like scenes where both land and sea units are at the same time. For example Sevastopol, Africa, New York. And I'll tell you honestly, I liked the old e-file with prototypes more. There was a point to fight for a diamond victory, now it doesn’t. But nothing needs to be changed, I want to finish the campaign)))

The availability of prototypes is decided on scenario level. So it can be decided for every single scenario if there will be protos or not. For the Weltkrieg campaign i decided against protos because it is such a long campaign and with protos it becomes harder to balance.

A new version of the efile has been uploaded to dropbox. You'll find the link in the first post of this thread.

As always there are some new units and icons, some efile tweaks and most notably there is the finished Weltkrieg campaign with 74 sceanrios (for now), the biggest Open General campaign ever :deal :yes

Thanks again @Dimitris for his playtest of the Weltkrieg campaign :bow

So what are the planes for the future? The Weltkrieg campaign will be enlarged and gets 3 more scenarios. Bydgoszcz 1939, Perekop Isthmus 1941 and Pantelleria before Malta/Africa. I resumed work on the Bydgoszcz map and will start playing/updating the campaign once the map is finished.
I might add more scenarios in the future. Maybe one new map and scenario every year. We'll see.

Dimitris resumed workin on his campaign as well :cool

Ok, change of plan (for the 100th time :lol ). Bydgoszcz is out and Hel Peninsula in. While i made a lot of progress on the map in the last days, i came to the conclusion that Bydgoszcz is just too big of a map for such an early stage in the campaign and the core army will be too small for such a big land mass.
Hel will wil perfect with half the map ocean and the player can also use the core ships :cool
I think i can finish Bydgoszcz this month and then start with the Hel map.
(Of course talking about the Weltkrieg campaign.)
