Open General Forums

I am trying to play but the first message is:
"Missing Mapfile C:\OPEN GENERAL\MAP\sb2stal.map ...
and I have not found on the NET either ..."

And then:
"Error ...
cannot play without the map, as map size is unknown
Aborting ..."
I try to download CC-06 again, but still the same message.

Hi Luis
There is something I don't understand ...
Why are CC campaigns causing so many problems?
I remember that in PG2 campaigns, maps always consisted of 3 components - a .map file, a txt file (for names on a map) and a drawing.
All .map files were placed in the MAPFILES file, and the names in the MAPNAMES file - having these files, you can play PG2 campaigns without any problems.
I understand that CC campaigns are specific and have frequently modified files. map (also other names for these files) - so they are not in the MAPFILES file.
Then why - aren't they featured in the campaign? - you have to download them ... You can also create one collective file for these specific files. map (like MAPFILES)
Is there a problem with that? - the weight of the file will be small ..
I can put such a file on my google drive and provide a link ..
I do not play any PG2 campaigns, and I have MAPFILES and MAPNAMES files ...

If you want to play CC_06 and you have a problem with the maps - there is a workaround for this.
1 - Open Suite and load this campaign (CC_06) - remember, change the file type to PG2 (then you will see the cam file)


will ask for conversion - if you choose yes - it will convert all scenario files to xscn format -> save and you can play


2 - if you chose no - you will have to go into each scenario ...
The first map is Map 41 Stalingrad

I will add one more

3 - if you want to have city names, you need to add (in suite) files for individual maps of this campaign
4 - this campaign includes music and smack files.
You must have them - to play them ... (what files can you check in Suite)

Thanks but did not worked. I make the conversion and now is tiled map (sure not stalingrad). In the suite still try to find sb2stal.map

You don't have the Mapfiles in the right place ...
I will send the file faster than in a language I do not know, I will explain ...
you need a maps

cc06 campaign

Thanks!!!! This time worked. I notice that your file is bigger than that i ve download from open-general.com

In Scenario - you have additional files. xscn - for each scenario
This is not in the original ... that's why the CC06 - it's bigger than me



.scn files need a file. map to properly load the map and open the scenario -> .xscn files have this information in them (additionally names of hexes on the map)
Therefore when converting from scn to xscn you can skip the .map file you don't have ... provided you have a MAPFILES folder with the corresponding .map files

Thanks once more. Where can i find the music and smack files? Smack files are the mp3 fron panzer-general.com?

Smack are short videos (didn't you play PG2?)
Most of the (cc06) used here are from PG2 (original)
Can't find just ruwin.smk ..
Of course, it won't work in this format (only works for PG2, windows 95)
All songs were converted ...
----------------------------------------
Here I showed a few that I did ..

Are you interested only occasionally?
Music and smack are available on our server - however, the compressed files are 600 - 700MB each
There you will find almost everything PG2 was done ...

So I wonder if you just want for this campaign?

I played so much PG , i remember some of theese but i wanted to know if there is something new.
Thanks for the infos again!!!!!
