Hi All

For fun, I thought I would convert some Squad Leader scenarios to a V&V format. So for your enjoyment here are the first 3 based on the original SL scenarios 1,2 & 3. PLEASE NOTE you will need the Stalingrad DLC to be able to play.

You can download the files from here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/e4urhuw0bew09kh/SL.zip?dl=0.

For help on how to install watch the video here: https://youtu.be/4zYakNo4_NY

Enjoy!

Lance

Thanks Lance!

I helped out during V&V beta, but just recently (yesterday) purchased the whole bundle and activated it on Steam. How or where do I place these scenarios so I can get at them?

I installed this mod and noticed I had no scenarios listed in the Squad Leader Campaign that showed up in game.
I did notice 3 new maps in Scenario Editor ,so I created a Scenario for the large map and it works good.

I came back to the thread and just read that Stalingrad DLC is required ,I dont own it yet and that probably explains why I had no scenarios listed.

In case someone else wants to try, without DLC it seems you can at least play with the new maps.

I am glad this component of the download worked for me.




New question,
are there any other new maps I can download to play with in the scenario editor?
And in the alternative can I create a new map using an editor somehow or else do a basic change like flipping a map for example in some manner and then renaming it?
Or else maybe copying a map ,colouring it in a different way and then renaming the map number perhaps.
I wanted some more maps to use in the scenario editor.
edit- I did find some great maps by Niederrheiner here,
https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/view ... 0&t=377478
and he makes some other scenario packs that seem really cool as well.
Have any other users also made some interesting maps I could play with in the scenario editor?

I know I can buy the DLC to get new maps to play with and I will ,but my premise is still the same even then ,I would like a way to generate some new maps myself.

Mostly ,I would really like a small group of geomorphic maps so I could emulate my Panzer Leader Board Game days and make my own map combo for a skirmish.(game suggestion)

Hi All

I updated the files to support all languages. Found out it was crashing the game if you tried to play in anything but English. No need to get a new version if you run the game in English.

I am surely missing something but where are the map files in the download?

Thanks in advance.

Hi TomBombadil711

My mistake. Download the file again and the maps should be there. Sorry!
