RE: JTCS meets PG3D mod-upgrade

Post by Dumnorix »

Hallo Wittmann
Schade, hätte wirklich noch Hilfe gebraucht. Na dann viel Glück in Afghanistan !
Ich werde jeden Monat 1 weiteres Multiplayer-Szenario JTCS meets PG3D "WWII" zum download anbieten.
das nächste ist die Normandie.
Bis Weihnachten wird schon viel neues fertig sein - Verkauf, weiß ich nicht. Bisher hat niemand (Matrix) Interesse zusätzlich am Code zu arbeiten. Solange die also faul und unschlüssig sind, stelle ich weiterhin meine Arbeit kostenlos zur Verfügung. Was die bisher an patches abgeliefert haben, erübrigt sich jeder Würdigung.

Hallo Iron Pig
Thanks for your positiv critics, complet is this addon never never- work again in my full live.
Every month I give a new scenarion online for free download, next is normandy.
I will work on barbarossa-map again !!!


Hallo Dali
Also Dein M4 Transporter ist der absolute Wahnsinn, sehr sehr gut - vielen herzlichen Dank.
Ich freue mich sehr über Deine tollen neuen Icons. weiter so !!!!!!

Hi Balck,

after the installation of your setup files I get in both games (Cold war, WW2) by starting a szenario the error code 486

I have installed JTCS without any patches and no other mods. Changing the resolution and the bit deep can´t fix this error.

do you know how can i fix it?

I have still the same problem [&:]

These are my part to install:

- install JTCS
- patch up to 1.02
- install the CW demo in the main directory
- after that i have e new folder called "Cold War". Playing out of this directory isn´t possible
- so I copy the files in the WF directory and overwright the original files
- after that I have the error code 486 too [&:]

I think i do something wrong but what? The editor has thesame error code by starting it [X(]

Balck, can you help me? [&o]

You should use JSGME mod swapping program to play ANY mods, so you don't corrupt original installs. 486 errors are registry errors dealing with passwords and such. If you don't use the JSGME program, you should copy/paste the whole existing WF game into a new folder, then install the mod over to that. you are most likely better off right now to uninstall everything, and start over. Copy/paste a WF (patched) game into another folder called Cold War or whatever, then make sure to play from the exe directly from the directory, or a shortcut to that one, not from some selection screen.

Hope this helps.

Hi Ironpig,

JSGME is a very simple program that you can use to install/uninstall mods with just a click!! The file is too large to post here, click on Warhorse in this post above Matrix Legion of Merit on left side above avatar, and click on email Warhorse, I will send it to you!

What I recommend is to uninstall JTCS, reboot the computer, then reinstall it, upgrade to both 1.02, and 1.02b. Then, just to make sure, double-click on the West Front.exe in WF to make sure that this copy works. If it does work, then unzip the JSGME into this folder, find JSGME.exe, double-click on it, then exit the program. Now you will see in the WF directory a MODS folder, with BACKUPS folder inside that. NOW, install H.Balcks demo into the MODS folder, you should see a new Cold War folder. Find JSGME again, double-click on it, and in the left side you will see Cold War, click on it and choose install. It will take a few minutes/seconds, then it appears in the right side under installed mods. Exit the program, and find in WF the WF.exe files as Dumnorix instructed, double-click it to play!!

When you want to play regular WF, open JSGME, and in the right side click on Cold War and chooes uninstall, when it disappears, close the JSGME and play your regular game!! Let me know how this works out, ok?

IronPig,

i´m playing a PG3D meets JTCS modern test scenario against H. Balck. It works! Mike gives you a very good overview to install the files. If nothing help you should install JTCS new, it´s the best way.

Good luck.

Hi,

now I have fixed the error [:D]
First:
I have make a copy of the WF folder (out of the JTCS folder)and installed the addon in this new folder. The I get the error by starting a szenario

Now:
You MUST have the new folder in the JTCS folder then you can play without a error [8D]

But I have a new "bug"? Some of my infantry units have the skin of tiger and panthertanks [&:] who can help me? [&:]

You´re right. I found the NVA Fallschirmjäger with a bmp file of a WW II tank. But it´s not your mistake. I think H. Balck will solve the problem. If you found more you should tell him this.

I think a Fan is too much but I like the cold war scenario.

I´m searching a long time for a good game with this scenario but only a few peaople like hex strategy I think [:(]

And the problem of the fan projects is that they are very buggy like the WW3 Addon for the talonsoft WF (1999 I think)

why do you ask?

Take a look to theBlitz.org and the Feldzugschmiede.com, there are (enough!?) other people with the same attention for Hex Strategy Wargames. The WW3 Add was indeed a first try, not more. I played it for 20 minutes ... that´s it.
why do you ask?
Look here tm.asp?m=1530779&mpage=2&#1749086 and you know why! [:D]

Good to hear that you like it.

The NVA (East German Army) is playable and at this time only some elements are missing. As next i will start a revised Soviet oob.

Where do you live? Do you speak german?
