Hi Maitrebongo, are you still working on 'LnL'? Any news?

I guess not! [:(][:(][:(]

Hi

First of all thanks for your amazing job

I have a question: if I want to play with all the mods I need to copy/past the game folder every time?

P.S. Sorry for my english

Purchased the HoS last week and now i've discovered your mods [:D]. Haven't played original HoS boardgame but will play the digital version that you enabled it to grow even if it's on "no support" status. Now instead of one game, i have six great games.
Thanks and good luck in future projects.

I've just bought the download version of Heroes of Stalingrad.
These mods looks awesome!
But do I really need to delete files in Heroes of Stalingrad to install the mod for ex. Band of Heroes?

Best regards

Guys, I am lost with this. I opened up the game and it doesn't have anything or the GME. I followed the directions with the snapchat but what game files do I make the snapshot of? I messed it up
In lNl folder structure I have the folders listed with a MODS folder underneath manuals folder
Inside the mods folder I have listed three folders
HoS
HoS original Maps
Vietnam
Help

My fault guys - I figured it out - I think the one thing missing in the directions for GME is that the desktop icon under properties needs to show
Under Target
"C:\Program Files (x86)\GenericModEnabler\JSGME.exe"
Start in
"C:\Matrix Games\Lock n Load Heroes of Stalingrad"

Module #5 : West Front Late War module

I open the game, looks fine, click on new game, scenarios and only one scenario is showing . Is this correct?

I have everything working with GME but some of the modules have maybe 1-5 scenarios in them? Is that accurate? Nice work

Are these mods still being worked on ?

Are the special module rules taken into account (banzai charge for japanese for example) or are all the same rules as stalingrad ?

I am getting the same thing. I assume they should be more than one scenario?

Thanks.

been a while. i just loaded my WFLW and i see 4 scenarios. BIA, LaFiere, Omaha and Pegasus.

i don't believe its still an active project.

IIRC. special rules aren't working for added modules as they were hard coded.

It seems that the modules have only a few scenarios included. There are some that are available from the Mods and Scenarios forum section of the Game.

Maitrebongo did a great job with these modules and I think he has moved over to Conflict of Heroes and is doing some work on that game.

Thanks to both of you. Do either of you have the files for Laska's scenarios by any chance? Many of teh files are not downloadable anymore. Or ASL Maps 1 - 4 files where the LOS polygons is set?

I just got back to this outstanding game, made even better by Maitrebongo's convertions and the H & L mod. But I've tried several times in the last week to create a scenario from scratch. I put in 2 victory hexes on the map, use the tab key to set the victory conditions to 2 hexes. The scenario starts up, does the initial initiative roll, but then goes straight to the victory screen. Please suggest what setting or step I'm missing.

I've watched the IDjester videos on the editor on youtube and can't figure what I'm missing.

Thanks very much.

Hi Gerry,

I will look to see if I have Laska's scenarios. I have a folder full of HoS files and I wouldn't be surprised if I find them there. You are welcome to the whole folder if you want it.

Do you know if Multiplayer still works?

Hi pauldfras,

I wish I could help you but I have no experience making scenarios for this game.

Hi Paul:

Made a test scenario for the eastern front at my first attempt - very simple one with 2 victory hexes. And it seemed to work. I followed Maitrebongo's directions found here:

tm.asp?m=4228406

I am not a sceanrio designer so I don't know how to convert ASL units to HoS. If you have any guidelines please let me know.
