653N Mod

[JagdFlanker]

ok, i see - there's no scripts for 'N' so it can't be played? any way to copy just the scripts from 'H' to 'N' to fill in for now? i'v got a copy of 'H' i can steal from

[sPzAbt653]

Delete 'N' and re-dl it from the link in Post #1.

[JagdFlanker]

perfect, it worked - phew!

thanks again!

One of the 'AI Helpers' that was added was an event to replace the DAK in Afrika if it is destroyed there [the AI would always replace a destroyed DAK, but would never send it back to Afrika]. I just played a full game and this event worked poorly, putting TWO DAK's in Libya EVERY turn no matter what the situation was. My bad, lol.
Some adjustments have been made and a new version is posted, but for prior versions and in case the adjustments fail to produce acceptable results, if you see this happen you can navigate to the in-game options screen seen below and uncheck the highlighted Event on Page 4 of the Unit Scripts.

I'm playing with the mod 653H which is very interesting for land operations.
BUT for maritime operations, I find it less interesting than the Vanilla version.
Playing on the Axis and having arrived in the year 1943, my submarines in the Atlantic did not have a single loss ... They are nevertheless positioned on the convoy roads.
The destroyers are missing and the submarine warfare and ASW is not well done.
Does mod 653N correct this?
If so, can we continue the campaign with this new mod?

[sPzAbt653]

Sorry but H and N are two different worlds so you can't switch in mid-game. The Naval Model for N is totally different from the stock version. See the Notes contained in the zip file for details.

Hi sPzAbt653. Any chance for update to SCW 1.6 in near future?

[sPzAbt653]

I don't see anything happening right now.

I downloaded from Dropbox, extracted everything in the correct Campaigns folder, but when I try to open the .cgn file in the editor it comes up with a little box stating 'file read error'. Why?? I'm running the latest version of the game, v1.16.02.

[sPzAbt653]

Yeah I apologize about that, I should fix it. Hubert explains it all here, in Post #3:
tm.asp?m=4639101

I've been discouraged by file changes and version changes and having to go thru extra work, here and in my other favorite [TOAW]. It is my responsibility though, I'll have to get myself motivated one day.

I've just used the conversion tool and now I can open the .cgn file in the editor but it doesn't appear on the list of scenarios when I try to play it.

What's the reasoning behind the German PB's being so strong? One PB unit in the Irish sea did some serious damage to 2 BBs and 2 CVs.

Is there a summary somewhere in regards to what the 653[X] series of mods is all about? Im intrigued but can;t seem to find what the basis of the mod is what it tries to achieve and how it differs from vanilla etc.

Thanks

Grr! i just can't get this mod to appear. I've unpacked it several ways, in the end, step by step manually to my Desktop into a temp folder to ensure it has unpacked correctly.
I have deleted the old 'H' version (to see if that was interfering), I have copied the 'N' files to 'Documents ../My Games / Strategic Command /.. War in Europe', also after this didn't work I copied the files to 'Campaigns' in my SCII Steam library and after this also failed to show up, finally into the Community Pack .. /Campaigns folder. Nope..


All I have achieved is losing access to the 653H mod, which I may have to get round to re-installing eventually.

Other mods show up fine.

It should be automatically installed through the Community Pack.

I've re-instated the 'H' mod from the community pack, but still unable to get the 'N' mod to appear via manual download and install, as described above.

Then that's not 653N [:)]

Then go to post #1 of this thread. Also see the '653ModDNotes' doc included in the zip file.

Grr! i just can't get this mod to appear.

See post #170 above.

[sPzAbt653]

I have updated the link in Post #1 but even with help I am still not getting it all working properly. I think this mod might only open in the World at War version. I think it doesn't work in War in Europe anymore.
