Start Date

Post by StuccoFresco »

I only just now saw that Start Date doesn't go further than 1943, is it possible to push it to 1945 somehow?

Hi,

Yes, you can do that. In the install directory:

which will be this for steam:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\WEGO World War II Stalingrad

or this for Matrix/Slitherine:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Matrix Games\Stalingrad

There's a directory called data and in that you can change a lot of things that aren't directly changable via the editor.
So in there there's a "years.csv" file. Just update that and add whatever years you want.

There's a README file in that dir which will explain what the other data files do. You can change the CRTs, the battle intensity, the readines mods, TOEs (number of tanks in a battalion etc).

NOTE that changes to these files only kick in when a scenario is loaded into the Editor. So if you change the CRT for example, existing scenarios will have the CRT that they were created with...otherwise people could cheat ;)

Cheers,
Brian
