And now...to show my complete ignorance and lighten the mood a bit: Is this MP only? I got the generic mod enabler to active the mod, but when I start the game, no mod I can find.
You need to replicate exactly the folder structure of panzer Corps in the Mod structure.
In this thread, with other mod, someone made probably the same mistake you're making. http://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtop ... 4&start=40
I've tested H.Balck Africa Corps with Generic Mod Enabler and it's working.
Stop being so precious.
The work is amazing, BUT.
Arrogance is ugly.
Stop issuing ultimatums.
Few people comment here, because it seems the work still has some flaws, and it's not entirely clear how it plays out yet.
the game having 2 simultaneous forums (matrix and slitherine) doesnt help either.
Just responding with bah- not historical, read a better text book smacks of hubris.
..and yes I expect I'll cop it for writing this.

@Balck
The same procedure as every year Micha? [:D]
Every year another buggy version of you alphastatusmods and after bad feedback you close the threat. [8|][:D]
You called yourself the "God of modmakers" but this sounds like crying of a little girl
How many times do the game makers/developers, encounter absolute criticism everytime they turn out a game. You ain't the first dude.
I think if one wants to make a mod, or add to the game; one should expect that just because you are totally enthusiastic with your idea on a developing mod....you should also be prepared to deal with all types of feedback...negative, indifferent or good. Not everyone has an opinion or is interested in jumping on the bandwagon. Doesn't mean that there is total apathy.
All you are showing, is an immature response. Hell, if developers did what you did, we would all be S.O.L..
You quit, you hurt yourself and have wasted all the time for nothing.....sounds rather absurd to work against ones self, and leave a negative statement on one's own character.
Your choice dude..but I wouldn't let anything or anyone stop me from completing what sounded like a good thing in the long run. I would have finished it, even if you are the only one, who played it out in the end.
Sounds like you expected everyone to be in awe of your talent...and wanted kudo's to your project. You came up short, because of an overly sensative ego.
You got pissed...ok; regroup, shake it off... and just finish it. Aaahhh, so you get teased for a while, because you jumped the gun and overreacted a tad bit. We have all been a bit dramatic at time. You finish it, and I know that most people will play it, and appreciate the overall effort you put forth.

I fully agree. I too would like to have more feedback about my mod, but the truth is most people don't like to give feedback, and we've to respect that.
First and in last place, it's the pleasure in creating and sharing the things that counts.
Some will like and appreciate it while others won't.
I have designed 8-10 TOAW-scenarios for Matrix over the years, my first was finished back in 1998.
I first an foremost create a scenario because I care about the subject and the game, I enjoy doing the research and the creative process and it is a reward to play your own creation.
Constructive feedback is of course always welcome even if players want to nitpick.
Several hundred have downloaded my stuff, but only a few tens of users have actually got in contact.
So do not give up, keep faith in your own work and be assure that enough players will enjoy it when it is available.
I really enjoy the people who make mods and the extra scenarios and battles in all the wargames I play. If I ever start complaining, which will not happen then I better start creating my own if I don't like what I see. I think I have played afew of Erik's scenarios in Toaw3.

Just a FYI, this guy Dumnrix got banned on the slitherine forums for the same kind of attitude. I dont think the mod looks good enough for him to be treating people the way he does.
@dumnorix,
I really don't understand the point to all your posts. It suggests some over-arching strategy of, all or nothing.
Producing ultra hi resolutions in 3D max, is all well and good, but much of the detail is lost when rendered down to a unit scale.
But.
Isn't it time you released all the units to the rest of the modding community, so your work can flourish?
If not, all your work becomes a series of 'holiday snaps' that are pleasant to look at, but essentially meaningless.
I thought the whole point of modding was to create open source resources far all who enjoy a game. Not just a vehicle for perpetual self grandaisment.

Feel free to make your own units and your own mods - I will use my own working tempo and will see my hard work only in Africa Corps - Why do you not play DMP Africa Corps - its only good enough - you must not wait for my mod - its also first only for some german friend test players and for a first version we need more time to test it.
But if you have so many interest - please I can open you my 1st historical Multiplayerscenario Kasserine Pass. Send me an e-mail and we can play a testgame.
