Alan R. Arvold's Divided Ground Vietnam scenario conversions
Posted: Wed Dec 06, 2023 9:48 am
Good day groggies!
Here's a set of three scenario conversions by Alan from the old and at its time quite popular Vietnam game mod for the Divided Ground game.
As those familiar with Campaign Series Middle East know, Alan did a full conversion of original DG conversions for that game engine. He considered the same for CS Vietnam as well, but after these three test pieces decided - at least for now - that it is not worth the effort. Among many reasons, mainly due to fact that the old DGV orders of battle are not of quality we'd expect to have here.
Scenarios included:
- Battle of Black Virgin Mountain Oct 15, 1966
- Ap Tau Ambush June 8, 1966
- Bastard Bridge Oct 14, 1967
These are not scripted, there's no CSEE lua files included, I for my part considered adding at least rudimentary SAI on top of Alan's work. But never got to doing them, not yet at least.
Anyhow, here they are, enjoy them for what they are! Any technical issues let me know.
Installation:
1. Unzip the contents of the attached zip archive to a temp folder
2. Copy "Alan R. Arvold DGV Conversions" with all subfolders to your MODS folder under game root
3.. Enable with JSGME, and ...
4. Off to battle you are!
Thank you Alan for your effort here. A good few oldie but goldie scenarios transferred to our new game engine!
