As it's almost finished, can anyone recommend a good file hosting option?

Dropbox

Edit: as long as you keep the files in your Dropbox the link will never expire.

Really longing for these graphics. Have you come far enough to show some screenies from China and the Pacific?

Well done, I found both my new counters and map!

I need a volunteer to install the mod, which is now finished, to ensure it installs correctly. [:)]

I can do that. If it can be done within 15 minutes. Bedtime in Sweden.

Should do. I will PM you.

Nice.

If you don't get my replies, IronX, I'm at it. The PM system seems odd.

Got it.

No, I can't get it to work, but I'm quite sure I'm not doing it right, and that the fault is on me. Time is closing on midnight now and I just have to retire for bed. I will try again in the morning, but, hopefully, by then you may have found someone better suited for the test. Appreciate your dedication regardless of outcome.

Is there anyone else willing to try it out? I need to ensure it installs correctly before making it public. Thx

you can send it my way, i'll install it.

IronX sent me his mod to try out. I installed using JSME, it's pretty much JSME ready you just have to copy the folder one level down and paste it in your JSME mod folder and then activate the board mod first, then the iron cross mod second letting it overwrite some files from the board mod.

There's only a 200kb file limit, i uploaded to a hosting site to post them in all there glory.

Wonderful! I have only a passing knowledge ofJSME if u want to use me as a test subject, I'll see if I can reproduce Budd's success. Send me the link via hkellogg36@gmail.com if u wish another tester.

They look very...elegant combined with Welk's map mod, I must say. Great job!

I finally got it to work too. Problem was that I had made some changes to the original scenario and renamed it with an additional "2" in the name. When trying to test the markers I downloaded them to the original scenario folder, but loaded a saved game from "2". So, actually, they were there all the time.

Anyway, it looks splendid; a job very well done, IronX.

Who knew?!?!?!?! I'm sure this is old hat to many of you but I'm blown away at how easy it was using JSGME.

I had no idea that JSGME worked on most mods. I thought it was for IL2 - 1946. What a versatile program. I just put the JSGME.exe from IL2 along with the folder JSGMEMODS and an JSGME.ini that was in there, into the particular campaign folder I wanted to mod. Copied Welk's folder and Iron_Cross_Mod_v1 into the JSGEMODS folder and started JSGME. They showed up and I enabled them and voila, it worked! Amazing how it knows were everything goes.

It looks wonderful. IronX

I started to modify it of course for use in the Naval Mod I'm working on.[;)]
