JMass Quick Battles Mod

Achtung Panzer:Operation Star is an Eastern Front wargame with solid graphics and sprawling battlefields that really emphasize the scope of WWII tank combat. The gameplay is a remarkably realistic turn-based and real-time operational/tactical hybrid wargame that continues the series begun by the acclaimed Achtung Panzer: Kharkov 1943.

JMass Quick Battles Mod

Post by JMass »

I did a mod to add units to the Quick Battles Platoon List, it is possible to install it with the Game Updater. The link to the new version 102 of it is:

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1613330/jmass_qb_mod_v1.0.zip

It depends from
1) Game core update v5.80
2) Game update may 2012.

CHANGE LOG 1.02
Added command tanks to German PzKpfw IIC, IIF, IIIN and IVG early platoons (but Commander Level is 37 as subordinated tanks, I must search where to edit it to 62, anybody knows what file is?).
Added tank platoons to Russian Tank Brigade and Light Tank Brigade
Added tank companies and tank platoons to Russian Sep. Tank Battalion (eng.) and Sep. Gds. Assault Tank Reg.

Previously I added units to Wehrmacht and SS Panzer and Infantry Division (tanks, tanks destroyer and AT guns) and 1942 Pz II platoons, default platoons renamed 1943.

"Thank you very much Andrey
I was not able to play with version 5.80 because of critical error 001.
Following your advice I enabled 2.15 SFX and I have been able to play two quick battles.
Remember to re-enable 2.15 every time you launch APOS, since the program resets the parameters to the initial config
Thank you so much for that tip".I've always had the 2.15 SFX option setting enabled,and have run error free with the 580 engine.The JMass mod is excellent,I think you will enjoy it once you swithch to 5.80 version and enable the 2.15 SFX setting.

Read that.... Going to try it under 577 with the addons..since i get the error using 577 when I install and play the addons. Funny that 577 plain gets no errors. If that works ill move on to 580....man I hope it works so I can play my addons.

Hi JMass,

Your excellent quick battle mod is no longer compatable with the new engine9v5.81) and update(3.09).
I was wondering if you had any future plans for updating it?

Yes JMass this game is very much a nightmare to mod and I very much understand your reluctance to give it any immediate attention.

Thank you for responding and I look forward to any future efforts you may have concerning this game if you ever get bitten by the APOS modding bug again.
