New Patch

I just downloaded and installed the new patch and noticed a few things slightly amiss.

The briefing displayed when selecting Operation Bagration is named "Barbarossa" June 22nd 1944-August 31st 1944.

The USMC University scenarios mention a document called WarPlan_Edits_MCU/pdf which can be found in the manuals folder but there is no such document.

Also in Op Husky when starting in Hotseat the Turn Report text is cut off at the top. Not a big problem as the full text can be accessed in the Reports section.


Just a heads up.

Thanks for the new patch. Just curious why the units in the Ardennes art folder cannot be modified like all of the other scenarios? If you try and replace it with alternatives it immediately reverts back when you load the scenario?

To clone a scenario....

open it in the editor
save it as the different name
go to the MyGames\WarPlan\Campaigns\ ... and copy paste the contents of the ORIGINAL scenario folder to the NEW scenario folder of the custom name.
Edit the new scenario and save

The game auto updates the main scenarios to prevent cheating.
Also some security software will botch up the install and not install new scenarios.

In the past it was suspect some players would start a game say as the Axis and change some stats for their units to give them an advantage.

This said, in the Ardennes scenario briefing is stated that no units can be built. however the axis player can build new units. Is this a bug?

Thanks for the tip! Except I only have this issue with the new Ardennes scenario. Will do for this scenario. The new Bagration scenario as all of the others works just fine putting modded art in the documents/mygames/warplan/campaigns section.

That's because there already is modded art for the Ardennes scenario in the base files.

You could replace them in the base folder for the game. But then you have to each update as well as it will reset.
