Hi Nikk,

I am playing the invasion of France and the scenario with the EE paratroops but I am unable to find Eban Emael on the map?  Do you think you can look at it and possibly see if I am missing something?

Is it the little Belgium flag that says "Landing zone"
i have the answer, yes it is

Yeps that's it. At least v1.05 contains a new overlay to avoid the hasstle to find a zone like in this scenario.
(put on my to-do list)

GTPG campaign pack 2 (scenario's 7-11): for Panzer Corps v1.05!

1)If you prefer to start with your DLC40 core (v0.01): http://www.gamefront.com/files/21072671/GTPG2_DLC40_rar
2)If you prefer to start with your GTPG1 core (v0.01): http://www.gamefront.com/files/21072676 ... anilla_rar
3)Standalone scenario pack (v0.01): http://www.gamefront.com/files/21072669 ... dalone_rar

!!!Both campaign packs cannot be placed under \mods together, so you really have to make a choice!!!

Also in the first window of this thread.

I just finished the French scenario and I missed out on the last small objective but gathered all the main objectives.  That last scenario was a lot of planes and fairly balanced.

First scenario of GTPG 3 is done. A few screenshots.

Nikk,

When you state that mods can't be placed in the same folder?  Since I have the scenario with the core unit already made up do i have to delete it and enter the gtpg pack 2?

Well, i meant - will adjust it - that both GTPG1 packs cannot be placed under modes together, both GTPG2 packs and so on.
To play GTPG2 you don't have to delete GTPG1.

Hi Nikk,
I see I dragged the file into my documents\mygames\panzer corps and it shows up

I am using the pre set units.  I let you know how I do,

Nikk, is it difficult to create these campaigns? I would like to try one in the future? maybe a scenario as starters, I have loads of books, over 400 of them on ww2. lots of battles we have never heard of. just bought the grand campaign 41

[nikivdd]

It is not difficult to create scenario's or campaigns. But it is very time consuming. Also everything needs to be tested thoroughly.

Like i did, it is better to begin small. First create a scenario and experiment and learn about the scenario editor as you move on.

I liked betatesting DLC 41. It is a great add-on.

First of all, there is finally the new v1.05. If someone would have an issue with GTPG 1 under the new version, let me know.

GTPG 2 is back on track and currently i am betatesting the second biggest scenario of the pack, Balkans.
I had to make a bit of a choice here, since in the original there is no Balkans scenario, so i decided to add it, and script it with a twist.

The original Malta scenario is pretty much undoable, it made me think of a certain 1 deployment hex scenario. So i decided to replace it with one i made some months ago. A scenario has to be fun/playable and not a desperate search where to land troops, which in my opinion is just plain frustrating and ends with endscn 0.

To come back to the Balkans scenario, i decided to add a bit of stuff for Yugoslavia and Greece. For Yugoslavia i added Me 109, Hurricane I, Blenheim I, R35 tanks and cavalry; and for Greece a couple of polish imported fighters. I also decided for the Axis to add some hungarian troops and added more bulgarian troops than in the original. I'm currently in the fourth test. That leaves me then with one more scenario, which is, not surprisingly , Crete. I was doubting to add it or not but i think most players expect a Crete scenario, surely after Greece.


Last but not least, two brand new screenies from the Balkans scenario.

You are a sneaky devil! I'm on Crete and the Balkns was by far the most enjoyble. Can't wait to see what is next.

Thank you Nikivdd for the work on the campaigns.  You did some nice work and I will get to pack 2 and 3 soon once I finish the other dlc scenarios.

Fortunately Martyward brought it to my attention.

I used the wrong parameter that when you capture 9 or more primary objectives, you automatically lose.

This hotfix corrects that error. From the moment you take 8 or more, you get a DV (+sinking the transports) or a MV.

Extract this file in:

\mydocuments\mygames\panzer corps\mods\GTPG3\ it will ask you to overwrite the data folder and 013.pzloc and 013.pzdat file

This will only overwrite the leningrad scenario! And is by no means a full update at this time.

DO NOT APPLY THIS HOTFIX WHEN YOU PLAY THIS SCENARIO. THEN ONLY CAPTURE 8 (AND NO MORE!) VICTORY HEXES FOR A MV.
A DV IS ONLY POSSIBLE IF YOU FIRST SINK THE TRANSPORTS AND THEN TAKE THE 8th VICTORY HEX.
OR RESTART THE SCENARIO WITH A SAVEGAME OF THE PREVIOUS MISSION TO LET CHANGES TAKE EFFECT!
