JB007, thanks for your prompt reply.
I still get the wrong icons for the Ukraine Assault Squad (see the screenshot for Turn 1).
I tried deleting .sce and reloading everything in the appropriate folders, including a 2.0 Ukraine on fire2022 folder in the Graphics Override. I still get a motorcycle icon for the Ukraine Assault Squad w/AT4 LAW, etc. I note that some are labeled 2.0 Ukraine on fire2022, others 2.0 Ukraine on fire 2022. but consistently naming them did not seem to help.

It is easy enough for me to fix the icons in the editor, but I am concerned there may be others.

But great scenario! I am on T12.
Robert

Notice same icons appear with the Ukraine Assault Squads in the development scenario Ukraine 2022. I suspect this a typo in the .eqp file. Easily fixed.

Hi, I think you have not correctly loaded the scenario file and correctly created the folder to be included in the graphic overrides. You have to download the 2.0 Ukraine on fire file where everything is.
I am attaching screenshots of my inventory and replacements, the first thing that stands out is the color of the masks, blue not green and the weapon system icons all appear.
You are the only person reporting this issue to me.
Check and let me know.
Good day, regards.

I think you are using .sce file Ukraine on fire version 1.0 with folder in graphics override of version 2.0.
You must use version 2.0 of both the scenario and the graphics override files.
I'll reattach everything to you.
Greetings

I have the same problem as Ranger and I'm definitely using the 2.0 version of the scenario and other files.

The eqp, nqp and col file are named '...fire2022'. There should be a space between 'fire' and '2022' so that they are the same as the scenario name: '...fire 2022'.

Thanks for your observation, '98. I have checked everything, including scrubbing my drives of everything with Ukraine 2022.
However, reloading only the 2.0 version files (.sce plus the other three into Override.) did not solve the problem. I had a similar problem with one of my Road to Moscow scenarios, and the editor with open with an old .eqp buried in another file. It took forever to find.

Thanks, Steve, for your suggestion. I have run into that problem before. I have changed the .eqp etc., to a space between fire and 2022. I also tried the other way, by removing the space between fire and 2022 in the .sce file.
Still a motorcycle icon with the Ukraine Assault Squad w/AT4 LAW...

JB007. Thanks for your suggestions. And posting a screenshot of the correct .eqp. I am looking forward to seeing it on my screen!

Hello, I can't understand why on my pc if I modify the .col, .eqp, .nqp files, leaving space between the scenario name and 2022 it no longer recognizes the files while if I leave it as I posted, i.e. scenario name and 2022 without space everything works correctly.
By inserting the .png counters and equipment256 files in the folder that goes to graphics override, it seems to have solved everything, it's just a problem of displaying icons and naming weapons.
I've already edited previous downloads.
Thanks for the contribution.
Greetings.

Hi, I modified and inserted the files counter and equipment256 in the graphics override folder as well as the .col, .eqp, .nqp files.
Everything looks fine whether I load it as a game or in the editor.
Try and let me know.
Thank you,regards.

No Motorcycle Icon for Ukraine Assault Squad w/AT4 LAW!!
Thanks for the fix, and looking forward to the scenario. Maybe an AAR...

Thank you for your contribution.
I'm happy to have solved the problem.
Can you see the other weapon icons as well, now?

All of the five Ukrainian Assault Squads icons are assault rifles. I assume others in the .eqp are also correct.
Thanks again for the scenario and for solving the .eqp issue.
Cheers

Thanks for this scenario, your research on the end of 2022 / early 2023 reinforcements for Ukraine is quite good. I do have one question regarding the Ukrainian 5th Tank Brigade. It was said that this brigade will be reequipped with T72M1 from Poland and YPR-765 from Netherlands but I don't see them in your OOB. How is it handled in your scenario?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5th_Tank_ ... ite_note-6

Same question for the VAB from France that are supposed to equipt the 46th Air Mobile Brigade. And the AMX-10RC for Ukrainian marines former VDV. And, the Leopard 1 from Germany?

Also, this 45th Air Assault brigade was disbanded in 2020 according to wikipedia. Since the 46th Air Mobile brigade is in your list of reinforcements, I wonder about the presence of this unit in your OOB. Maybe wiki is wrong.

In your OOB, I don't see this unit 61st Jager Infantry Brigade i.e. 61st Jager Bde according to your naming convention.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/61st_Mech ... _(Ukraine)

In wikipedia, it says the 12th Tank Battalion was "Stationed in same town as 1st Tank Brigade, it is an Independent Battalion" and later "Battalions mission is to protect northern part of Chernihiv Oblast with support of 61st Jager Infantry Brigade."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/12th_Tank ... _(Ukraine)

It may help to place the 61st Jager Brigade.

In your Reinforcements table, I am not sure 13rd Jager Bde will be combat ready on March 19. It was only an HQ without battalions in February 2023.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/13th_Jaeg ... _(Ukraine)

A last general comment, I wonder if the proficiency of the TD units (Territorial Defence Forces) should not be distinguished from other Ukrainian units since reservists were not necessarily all trained. Today, they are all flagged veteran.

Thanks for your comments.
It appears to me that the 61st mech/ jager does not appear in the OOB (https://www.battleorder.org/post/ukraine-tanks see video from min 6.32) and in any case also here (https://militaryland.net/ukraine/armed- ... d-brigade/) its role should be specified and located not to the north but to the south, currently it is not deployed (see maps https://geo.parabellumthinktank.com/ind ... ct_updates
https://militaryland.net/maps/deployment-map/).
For the 45th air assault brigade it is given in the OOB (see above video) and deployed see parabellum map (instead in the militaryland map it is not deployed).
As for the other formations mentioned, wikipedia is not 100% reliable on many info, I cross referenced its data with those of https://militaryland.net/ and https://www.battleorder.org/
For equipment of the 5th Tank, the vab and amx10rc the information is what I found on the web net.
There are no 100% certified sources, the situation is fluid and constantly changing, to be sure we will have to wait years after the end of the conflict.
Feel free to make any changes you see fit if it meets your expectations.
In any case, for the purposes of the scenario, also considering the time coverage, it doesn't change the outcomes and playability, in my opinion.
Greetings.
Best regards.

2.1 Ukraine on fire 2022 this variant introduces some changes due to events following the publication of version 2.0, in particular from 25 June 2023 the total withdrawal of all Wagner units.
Other changes concern seasonal atmospheric events with the possibility of more pronounced rain and/or snow.

Thanks for this scenario. Good idea about this war in TOAW. I'm pleased to see it uploaded so soon (war is not finished).

3 of the files in the folder don't have the same name as the folder itself or the scenario file.

Despite that thanks for the update.
