Are there any guidelines to convert a mod-campaign from War in Europe to World At War?
For example, are the terrain and counter bitmaps directly compatible?
How close are the scripts from on to the other?
And so on....

Thanks for any thoughts on this.

The terrain is not 1:1 compatible.

It will load but some additional files will be missing.
There are missing vegetation and urban tiles, so your map will show a lot of big X-es.

I tried it with the Bleached map pack, which has colors that I prefer.

Same with units and flags, no straight port.

...so either adapt them, or wait for others to upload their work.

Thanks, Simulacra53. Good info - I was hoping it would be largely compatible even if not 100%. I was just trying to get a feel for how big a job it would be.

I've just posted a thread over on the Europe forum that might be of some assistance:
