Matrix Games Forums

I just picked up CCIII: Cross of Iron from GOG. Trying to install the old mods I used to use. Picked up modern versions of them via closecombatseries DOT net to run.

Here's the downloads I've added to try to mod the game:
COI_DerOstFront2_Plugin.exe
COI_DerOstFront2_Maps.zip
ModSwap_v1.2_COI-WaR-TLD-LSA.zip


Modswap does not work. I've uninstalled all other CC games from my hard drives, and I THINK I set the routing up correctly in the modswap.INI files.

I do not know if this is the issue. Here is a copy/paste of the altered file.

So, did I mess up with the pathing? Or is the GoG version incompatible with modswap? If so, I want my money back so I can buy it from matrix games instead where it appears the mods work okay. If not, how do I fix it?

(I'd ask on the other closecombatseries DOT net forums, but I can't register because I have a yahoo email account, and that is auto-rejected when trying to register due to spam problems.)

Thank You

welcome to the forums, just make a google email address and retry, as tbh i also have no idea on the modswap part, so only advice is to ask where it's made and supported tbh

Hi, i just posted a similar topic. I dint see yours.
I have the exact same issue as you do. Bought the game on GOG and i cant for the life of me get modswap to work.

I guess the GOG version of the game doesnt support modding? [&:]
