This Mod looks GREAT - however I am having an extremely difficult time getting it to work. What kind of a file is a "7z" file??? My windows can't recognize it. The first link doesn't work and I can't download the zip file.
I have JSGME in my DC folder installed, but it cannot recognize the "7z" file either!

What am I missing here? [&:]

here the link to download 7zip http://download.cnet.com/7-Zip/3000-225 ... ag=mncol;1
use 7zip to unzip the mod into the mod folder in your main WTP game directory.

http://www.file-upload.net/download-406 ... 01.7z.html
I downloaded it again the link seems to work fine, just make sure you hit the right download button. the small looking download button, not the big green one.

Once you unzip the mod into your mod folder start up JSME and enable it and you should be good to go.

I tried your 7zip download link and that worked - now I got the mod working!!! so thanks a lot for the help budd!!! [8D]

Great Mod by the way! [;)]

glad you got it working, its a great looking mod. I havent play WTP yet busy playing Case blue right now. If you don't own case blue i'd give it a look, great mods for it by the way and JSME makes using them easy.

Clean isntalls etc but I still get the text box, and "Mod File Caused an Error" [&:]
I uninstalled and then deleted the folder. Did a fresh install of basic game, and followed your example on the forum.
I think I will just copy over using the mod files. Given the comments above I'm sure I'm doing something wrong but would rather play the game - with the mod - than continue tp uninstall/reinstall/swear at screen on start up and repeat the process.

understand completely. If you want to have another go at it using JSME i'll try and walk you threw it. Your right its probably some small step your missing. Just ask you if you want to give it go. Your right though it is more fun playing. Enjoy.

Hi guys,

For JSGME install/ For those who don't know how to use JSGME
To install my mod via JSGME is not absolutely required but recommend. However, whether manually install or via JSGME, you need to decompress that 7z file you download first! OK, pretty simple, here we go!

1. Download JSGME
2. Copy "jsgme_setup" or something like it into your game root directory and double click it to begin setup. The directory should be something like this: C:\Matrix Games\Decisive Campaigns The Blitzkrieg from Warsaw to Paris.
3. Once, a yellow JSGME icon show up, execute it!
4. Once, a popup doalog box asks you to create a "mod" folder. Do it then close that box. JSGME setup complete!
5. Download my mod, unzip it somewhere/desktop, there are three subfolders in that folder and they are:
* Kiddytoto's terrain mod (the main)
* Kiddytoto's Nazi Flags mod (historical accurate, your option)
* Kiddytoto's German air units graphic mod (instead of the cartoon style)
6. Copy these three folders into that mod folder just created by JSGME
7. Now double click that yellow JSGME icon , you will see that tree mods list on the left side of that box.
8. Select and enable them!
9. Start your game and enjoy!

Hi joeyeti,

No idea why I have a strange alert message from the administrator " You are not allowed to post links for 7 days from the date of your tenth post".[:@]

This means I can't edit my post for a while. I'll maintain all the links as soon as possible. Thank you for reporting that. [;)]

Thx!
Meanwhile I sorted the issue I had with file-upload.net, so downloaded the mod in the end

Guys, I'm working on Case Blue since I purchased it last week. Hopefully will be released in the near future. [:)]

Would really like to use your mod but, none of the links get me to your file. Have tried all the buttons, none of which direct me to the file. The linked sites, also, bare no resemblance to your included picture of the site with a button circled to download. All I get are links to film players and the like. Can you possibly provide some assistance at your convenience?

Thanks very much.

Reuploaded! Keep reporting broken links guys, thanks! [;)]

Kiddytoto.... just stumbled on this mod and... this is a great mod!

Reminds me of the TOAW graphic mods which I installed and greatly improved that game. Yeah, with your mod installed really gives the look and feel of TOAW with the graphic mods there and, that is good!

I didn't want to go with the installer and I already had 7-Zip on my computer so I just DLed and used 7-Zip to unzip. I then copied the FWTP graphics file and renamed the copy to Graphics_original. I then copied your two mods (didn't go with the nazi flags for now) into the FWTP folder and replaced the original stuff (again, I copied the original stuff so I can always go back).

With these graphic mods, there is a matter of more artistic artwork but there is also the matter of better contrast so the different terrain types stick out clearly and you don't have to look twice to see what the terrain of a given hex is and, from my first impressions your mod brings both the more artistic artwork and the better contrast.

Oh, one thing you should do is put your mods in a zip file and upload to Vic's community site. For big files, I believe Vic had a FTP site that you uploaded to and then executed a command to get them there from the FTP site. It's been a while since I uploaded the mods I made for AT so not sure things are the same way there now.

Again, thanks for a great mod!

Hi just a question is it still compatible with the latest patch 1.51j?

The download is now an .exe and my AV software really doesn't like it. Can't get this to unpack into an archive or anything else.

Sorry have been quiet for a pretty long while here, the download link has been fixed thak you guys [:'(]

Well, I have just found out what I was asking about at the DCII forums a while ago - again, yes, the download link is working, I am downloading the mod as we speak.

Downloaded, installed with JSME and it's working great with the latest version 152 - thanks a lot, I have unstalled all of the components and the difference can bee seen right away. I'll soon find out about DCII

Works great, thanks. Especially for the historical german flags, the vanilla ones were too similar to French and caused confusion.

Looks great. Unfortunately when I click the link for the download, I get an error message stating the site can't find what I am looking for. So does anyone have the correct link or have a copy they can generously share? Thanks all.
