Does anyone know if this mod works with the generic mod enabler?

Yes it works.

Can't download the campaign, as much as I can't register in the following "jerries" forum.
Any possibility to add a link here, mate?

You've to register there to download from their ftp.
Why can't you register there?

Thank you Paulus for your work here. [:)]
You know my english is not so good.

And yes, you can see here the pictures for the Add-on Grand Africa Campaign:
38 Scenarios, 4 Campagnes in German and English

Because I'm getting an error message...!

Riko and the DMP team thank you very much for this, I downloaded and installed today and it works excellently I am happily charging across the desert now. [;)]

Okay, I did it - don't know what happen before (I really couldn't register in the other german forum)...

Now... It's an exe setup. I'm simply installing it? (I have 1.04 ver and both official campaigns installed).

Just do as they say. Install it in a different folder than Panzer Corps main folder.
And then copy these files from Panzer Corps to them folder where you've installed Afrika Korp.
PanzerCorps.exe
PanzerCorps.TXT
autorun.exe
panzer_launcher.exe
ScenarioEditor.exe

Alternatively, if you use Generic Mod Enabler, just copy the main folder of Afrika Korp to the MODS folder, without having to copy the files above.

Definately use the generic mod enabler like vpaulus suggests. You don't have to overwrite or change anything in the main programanything. Just follow the steps here and you can easily switch between mods with a single click.

Afrika Korp

Okay, I did it.
Is it (this new campaign) in the other folder with the officials? Am I running the game and I'll see it?

(Btw... It's very funny the "ranking" system in the other forum; lovely graphs for the Wehrmacht's medals!)

Well, as LUFTWAFFE PILOT fan, I gave myself LUFTWAFFE ranks.

And you didn't told me HOW am I suppose to run this AFRICA CORP mod...

Exscuse me, my english is not so good, i use my school english or google.
And when in answer the questions, which in dont understand 100%, it is better to say nothing, as i speak wrong.
but at dmp we have german people, who speak english as well and english people too.
if i now explain you, how to run africa, it is a fight for me. [:(]

Answer me in GERMAN, "jerrie" mate.
No prob! I'll understand - I can't write, but I do understand quite good.

I suppose you don't use Generic Mod Enable, so its a stand alone installation. You've only to copy those files I mentioned before to the right places where you installed Afrika Korp.
And yes you'll know that you are playing Afrika Korp, because even the main menu is different from the original.

I did what you said; I copied the files in this "different" location (I installed Africa Corps) and I'm running the exe file from that directory...
...and I'm getting ERROR MESSAGES ("HTMLayout.dll not found"... & "Could not find data file")!

That's because you're not copying the files to the right place.
Let us suppose that you have installed it in C:\Africa Corps
Inside Africa Corps folder, don't you have another folder called Afrika Korps? That folder is the main folder of Afrika Korps mod.
Copy those files I've mentioned before and run from there Panzer Corps.

My experience was like so:

I changed drives from "C" to "H" and the installer created a whole new folder named "program Files (x86) and then did the \slitherine\ Afrika Korps thing. This method assures that everything goes where it should. Copy those 5 files over and you're set. I created my own desktop short cut. Be sure to click on the Afrika Korps 1941 campaign as the Tutorial Campaign doesn't work with the mod.

No, THERE ISN'T any sub-directory like that, only a SINGLE directory ("Graphics") and only two files (unins000.dat & unins000.exe)! Nothing else...
