Gents-

Where would I find the Target v2 Mod? I have seen screen shots of a green map; is that the Target v2, or is there another map mod?

Am now officially on Christmas Break; and plan to add the mods then fire up the game and play!

Thank you for your help!

cohimbra-

Thank you for the link!

I downloaded the "each nation has it's own color" version of the map; but the green only map (post #1) is just one file that windows does not know how to open; not a zipped collection of map files.

Thanks Again,

Mac

mmm...maybe you downloaded the .gif images?
Have you tried the link in post#1?
Downloaded it just now, is the .zip collection of (green) map files you're looking for. [;)]


Can I suggest the "BtR Map Names & Borders v1.02" mod?
I've uploaded it in MediaFire, here's the link:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/2ln5t ... s+v1.02.7z
Give it a try.

There's also the "BTR Mini Map Weather Zones", here's the link (MediaFire too):

Enjoy!

Is this mod compatible with the new patch?

It also seems to contradict what I saw a mod say the other day (in another thread whose name escapes me now), who clearly said that B-29's could not be modded into the game, at all.

I'm not sure if it is compatible or not, I would have to dig into it to see what it changes and I don't have the time or inclination to do that right now. I would venture a guess that as long as the mod only changes start times and characteristics and doesn't change the ID of any of the aircraft or devices it should be OK insofar as how well it stood up with the pre 1.03 versions. Backup your stock data files, because I think this mod changes the locations file, which we spent many hours fixing to match historical.

Adding new plane types like the B29 requires modifications to the AI routines so that the AI can find and use them. They also need to be added to the correct slots within the database. I'll let warshipbuilder chime in about the why and why not.

The why for the mod was that it is an alternative to Jet Age scenario. It was a good idea and Nick put a lot of work in to it. I suggested the B-29 to him as a B-17 upgrade. I mean it is a what-if scenario, so what the hell, WHY NOT<g>. How well it all works I do not know and nobody has ever chimed in about it.

There are 400 slots for aircraft in the game. The first 200 are for the Axis and the second 200 for the Allies. Theoretically they are all "live" and you "should" be able to add any aircraft you want. Theoretically.

Bottom line is go ahead and add an aircraft to an empty slot and see what happens. Assign the type to a squadron and see if it takes to the sky and does anything. There will be no new aircraft added to the official game, so you are on your own if you wish to diversify you choices.

Sir, may I ask for this mod to be updated to work with ver. 1.05? I have found it truly interesting and enjoyable to play. Having such a mod updated simply adds to the pleasure of playing the game.

thank you

Did you test to see if it wasn't compatible? it just changes the aircraft and location data so i would be surprised if it isn't.

I did not even think of that, I was expecting changes that would be cancelled out by copying the DAT files from the mod into the game. I will give it shot. Thank you.

I did have to reinstall the game, then transferred the files. Started the game and it is working. Still do not know if there are ver. 1.05 data that has been replaced by the mod dat files but we shall see. It will take some time before I can determine any effects.

I can guarantee that many 1.05 data files have been replaced by the mod, bit that is unlikely to have any adverse effect on the execution of the game program regardless of what version you are playing.
