1914 West Front Mod (Now awailable)

Post by welk »

How should be the look of ADVANCED TACTICS in my opinion

http://www.cyberstratege.com/forum/view ... 721#p31721

I am using some elements of Boardgamemod (rivers, etc.) and Barbarossa mod (roads). The mod is in work. I will post it here if authors of "Boardgame" mod and Barbarossa Mod accepts I use some of their elements and graph in my own mod.

Nice work. Looks very good.

The link at the top of your post does not seem to work. The one in your signature does not work either.

The most is completed, I will post it in the bank in some hours. I hope that authors of Boardgame mod, Barbarossa mof and Nato counters mod will not contest my use of some elements of their own mods : using their mods elements saved for me a lot of time [;)]


The mod is awailable here (my own page) :

http://imperialism.blog4ever.com/blog/index-184959.html

(I can not place it on the bank because rar.files are not accepted and I do not use Winzip, to complicated for me, I prefer to use winrar, more easy to use. You must first download winrar on the net before to download the mod).

Please, take a look and say me what needs to be changed in the mod.

welk - I think you can create a zip file from winrar as well? I may be wrong as I switched to 7-zip a long time ago...

Nice feature with the attack symbols.

Is it also possible to see/use this feature in the history setting?

Yes, of course. All the graphs of the mod replace original graph and may be used as default graph, as original default graph. The mod changes 100% default graphs of game concerning map and battle symbols.

(note that the bank site does not accept my winzip file, the file is dammaged when downloaded : I do not undertsand why[:(]). Do not us the download link on the bank site : the good link is on my page

The 1.2 version of the mod is now awailable here:

Take care : acces to this page may be long or sometimes unable : in this case, try another time, after on hours or two)

This game editor is incredible...[:'(] Never seen that : all is possible.

added special "no large" 3° level of moutanin + forest mountains

Due to the fact I will include this graphs in a special private mod ("operationnel AT" = adaptation of the game for just operationnel level battles, without research, build, etc...), I will only give them as graph (without masterfile : players will be able to use them for the use they want in their scenarios.

This night [:D]

To download the "beta version" of the mod :
http://www.4shared.com/file/83461356/89 ... e_Mod.html

I builded a little scenario (not finished) with 30 x 30 map to show the possibilities of the new graphs

Thanks for reports (errors, etc.)

Note that this mod is a tool for scenario designer, not for random scenarios, because the IA des not build very good maps with this mod.

I did not place the mod on the bank scenario matrix because I use winrar, and the zip files i create with winrar do not work with the system, it seems. If somebody using winzip want to do it and place the mod on the bank scenario matrix, no problem with that.


Screen of the demo map : (map of the demo scenario). Note that all values have to be completed by the designers using this graph mod : it is a demo tool for scenario creator, not a playable scenario
