Yes, I saw that. Just wondering if the fix can be included in the current version in case someone hasn't seen the other thread. Right now it makes it tough in PBEM unless you have two players in the know, as a lot of people don't frequent these boards. That is why I am not starting any PBEM on vanilla version until the Steam version gets patched.

Unfortunately it's not something I could fix with the editor, the fix is probably part of the game engine.

Seems to be a bug in 17.0. I was in a PBEM where the Axis had destroyed the French forces, but held off taking Paris itself (almost all the rest was taken and the French unit in Paris was gone). Next turn, France surrendered, due I suppose to conditions being met for surrender even if Paris was not yet Axis occupied. But there were no messages creating any of the territories of Algeria, Tunisia or Syria. They all now just showed as Axis occupied. I went ahead and resigned as Allies.

I haven’t made any changes to that effect. It sounds like someone just wanted to exploit the game by not capturing a capital in which case I would quit as well.

I cannot get your mod to show up on the campaign list. The folders/files are all in the correct place but the mod does not show up on the Campaign list :(

Did you extract the downloaded folder into your Campaign folder? Not the game one, but the one in this directory.

It seems I have the same issue than Rodimstev :


"could not find directory_fall weiss II - 17.0\campaign.ini
Saved game will be load without customization"

Any idea to solve this plz ?


I don't think the game comes with the .ini file. Can you open the campaign in the editor?

At a guess I would say you have a folder called FW17.0 created when you unzipped the mod. Now open the folder & you should see a folder called "_Fall Weiss II - 17.0" & a file called "Fall Weiss II - 17.0.cgn" now move them both into your campaigns folder & your good to go. You can now delete the FW17.0 created when you unzipped the mod.

Hello for me install the mode all Weiss II - Version 17.0 it's impossible.

In the game tell: could not find_fallweiss2-17.0\Campaign.init and:

La partie sauvegardée sera chargée sans personnalisation (the game save reloaded enought personalisation (mode)


In editor erreur: could not find_fallweiss2-17.0\scripts\events\convoy.txt
La campagne ne peut être chargée.

Use the zip in the fichier campagne of game.
I use mod 9.1 it's good.


Excuse me my English is very bad, i am french.

Obviously the install is wrong.

Download the zip file and select "Extract" then choose the extract location to be C:Drive > Users > My Profile > Documents > MY Games > SC3 > Campaigns.

If you can not find this location, open the editor, select a campaign "Save As" a new scenario and you will create the folder.

Took me 3 hours to install 17.0, but doubtless that was solely due to my complete ineptitude with computers.

I'm sure it will be worth it as I've enjoyed many games with 9.1. Your continuing support for the mod is impressive, though I hope you won't make any more changes for a long time................

what is the difference between the two links? 7 Majors? 8 Majors?
Do I need both or ar that different versions?

Just don't want to unpack anything that I don't need.
Thanks in advance

12.0 was the last version which had 7 Majors, I have not updated it in some time.

All of the PBEM games I have seen pop up have been with the most recent versions, so I would suggest only downloading 17.0. Enjoy!

already the next question:

I extracted the files to my campaign folder... no result
to my community pack folder (where fall weiss 9.1 is located and is working) but no result
to my campaigns_de (German language folder?) but no result

I'm a bit confused

The mod is not downloaded into the community pack, or where you will find the vanilla game. Find the above folder, if it's missing open editor save a custom campaign and the folder will 100% be there.

got it... the problem was I am using the steam version with this starter screen. Just quitting the game is not enough, you have to close that starter tool too and then start it again. Et voila - fall weiss II version 17 appears.
