LitFuel, no real update on Pac except to say that the adaptation to CoI is underway.  Thanks for your interest.

PacMod is running under Coi...just a few tweaks, which might mean a few (short) weeks. :)

hate to revive a dead thread but is anyone still working on the pacific mod or is it already available? If its still not done, is there anything we can do to help it get back rolling again? Still waiting very patiently for the COI version [:D]

Hi Andrew,

Can you please provide a bit more detail on how can I go about this? I noticed the CC3 pac mod comes in a .pln file and the rest of the COI mods are a .cc3 file. Other then that, I'm not sure where I can find the mod.ini file?

thanks!

Re-name the .pln file to .zip and unpack it.

I'm not sure about the .cc3 file, try googling ".cc3 file". I think you need an unpacking tool, check over Close Combat Series. http://www.closecombatseries.net

I've tried using the config manager to directly put the cc3 .pln files with COI but i keep getting an error saying config manager cannot find the location of close combat III. Any one have any ideas/suggestions on how i can get this to work?

thanks!

Thanks for all the help! I got it to unpack now so time to start playing with the mod.ini file! After i finish the edit, do i just re-zip it and rename it to a .cc3 file? Also, which cc3.exe do i include in the zip? the cc3.exe from the original pac mod download or the cc3.exe from one of the COI mods?

thanks again!

You put the .cc3 file in your "C:\Program Files\Close Combat\plugin" folder. Install the mod through ModSwap, if you have another plug-in installed uninstall it first.

Thanks for the help guys! I finally got the mod working without crashing. However, the rank images aren't showing up during the battle phase. Is there something I need to do to get these images to show up?

Schrecken's right, you can associate the .cc3 file with your archiving program, or re-name it to .zip. After you do that you can extract it's contents. Not sure why you couldn't do it, it worked for me. I use IZArc http://www.izarc.org
