Title: Operation Kutuzov (beta) in progress
Post by: Rends on June 14, 2011, 01:46:53 PM
I´m working on the Operation Kutuzov (July 1943) campaign (Orel area) and nearly finished the first 2 missions from german side.
It will be playable from both sides and i will upload mission after mission when it´s done.

The missions are beta so feel free to comment them . Next i plan to tweak the missions depending on your feedback before it goes gold.
So check this thread from time to time for updates!

beta 2 is out. You can play one mission from the german side and one from the USSR side now!:
Get it here:

Be sure to uninstall beta 1 before you install beta 2 and you need to add 2 lines to the camp. file now. For more information check the readme file!

Thanks Rend will download , test and report! :) 

REnds just for clarification; does it come with a new map that needs to be generated? Better ask before we get a flurry of posts from people who either don't read the Read Me or don't know how to get a map into the game.


Cheers!

frinik, yes it comes with a new map .I´m not sure what you mean with generated?

And people need to follow the readme for installation instructions. Otherwise it won´t show up in game.


Title: Re: Operation Kutuzov (beta) coming soon
Post by: frinik on June 19, 2011, 01:16:29 PM
  I mean usually when missions come with a new map the map has to be generated separately into your game through the editor_map function otherwise the game won't start,That's how most Russian-made missions work.If your is built-in your mission then great no need to worry about it.

  Hi Rends! I have got a baffling problem! I can't make your campaign appear in my games no matter how many times I have tried????I have extracted your mods into the mods folder, enabled it through the JSGME, added the 2 lines into the camp list mission but no. nothing!I have tried moving the lines up and down the list but no difference!

BTW I generated your map are there lakes in it????

frinik.
First make sure you copy&paste the folder next to the readme file into the MODS directory (and not the extracted zip file)

And here is my current camp.file:

//ÒÔËÒÓÍ Í‡ÏÔ‡ÌËÈ
camp_list()
{

   //Ù‡ÈÎ, ·ÎÓÍ, ̇Á‚‡ÌËÂ+ÓÔËÒ‡ÌËÂ, ͇ÏÔ‡Ìˡ, ÒÔ‡ÈÚ Í‡ÚËÌÍË

   camp\main_camp.engcfg, teach,          txt_cm_camp_teach,         false, img_t34;
   camp\main_camp.engcfg, rkka_2,               txt_cm_camp_rkka_2,          true,  img_mk2;
   camp\main_camp.engcfg, rkka_3,               txt_cm_camp_rkka_3,          true,  img_user2;

   camp\main_camp.engcfg, single,          txt_cm_camp_single,        false, img_single;
}

_vars() {}

BTW: Why did you generate it? It Should work without doing this and no there is no water on the terrain.

Hi Rends!This is precisely what I did! I tried several positions in the camp_list at the end , in the middle etc to no avail

I generated your map hoping itt might make a difference?

I installed all your missions previously without any problems and dozens of mods and missions without any problem.Unless my download is faulty???

Has anybody reported the same problem?


Title: Re: Operation Kutuzov (beta) in progress
Post by: Rends on June 21, 2011, 02:10:24 PM
I suggest to redownload the map !

Hi, Frinik,

I think, with multiple installs, could the campaign have been activated on a different one?
You'll have to check which game installation you're using. Just a small suggestion  :)

I tried generating it myself; no lakes,  ;D

   Thanks Kyth for suggestion but I activated Rends campaign on one installation first which I immediately set out to play.Then tried on another one after it didn't work on the fisrt one and finally on yet another one .Same results...
I have a little problem with the BSSR2 map from Deviator which I generated previously.It seems to overwrite some of the new maps I try to install.No idea why???It does that one several different installs.

Rends do you ahe  your misisons in datapack format by any chance?


Title: Re: Operation Kutuzov (beta) in progress
Post by: Rends on June 21, 2011, 04:04:25 PM
I want to create the datapack version when for the final version but i can upload it earlier if needed.

 If you could I'd be grateful so I  can enjoy your missions! :)

Post by: Rends on June 22, 2011, 08:17:22 PM
Frinik. I just installed the mission pack beta and my Orel campaign entries disappeard from the campaign list.
I suggest to deactivate the mission pack and then add the missing lines to the camp file and try again.


Title: Re: Operation Kutuzov (beta) in progress
Post by: frinik on June 23, 2011, 05:53:58 PM
  OK Rends will try that and hope to be successful!

Cheers!

  Victory at last!

I know what happened.When I extracted your mod it seems I extracted and installed into my mods folder the entire folder including the read me and insall instruction.But the real active mod was the folder inside called Rends_Orel_beta2 rather than the Steel Fury_Rends_Orel_beta2 which seems to be the whole mod but not the one that actually makes the missions appear in the game( I hope my explanation does not sound too confusing).Once in uninstalled the Steel fury oen and just pasted the Rends_Orel instead it worked!Your 2 missions are now in my game menu and I can look forward to playing them!!!!

Thanks Rends for your misisons and assistance and Kyth for the suggestion!!!!
