Replace the light aircraft tech txt in db/tech with that one above.

Also the Austrian defeat events have been altered now - previously they didnt work well, with chunks of it going independent and other bits under Russian occupation.

Might be a bit too difficult to explain exactly what you should do to get the map looking "historical" but at least the game won't crash now. I hope.
 
thanx

thank you very much ,, and forward to solve all the problems ...

Tech Support?

Well, after reading StephemT's great AAR, i decided to wrap up my WWII game and take a step back in time by a few decades.

After struggling to get it installed (Thanks Allenby and StephenT) I am having trouble loading the game up. Rather than clutter individual PM boxes with my whining, i thought i'd whine about my techno-deficiencies here.

WHen I start up TGW, I get
Critical Error
--Excel File not Found
Do you still want to continue?--
ABort Retry Ignore

I, like any stubborn technophobe, I ignore. IT loads up, I choose teh scenario, choose my country, hit start, then it happens again, same error exactly, only no matter what option i choose, it ends the program.

What have I done wrong?

To prove I am tech-tarded, I would also like to know how to replace teh HoI desktop icon with the TGW icon that came with the install. Hey, stop laughing, i'm serious!
 
I got that the first time I tried to patch the original file.

Some thing you did in your patching went wrong. Best to just start over again, or look closer at the directions and try to retrace your steps.
 
I hate to say it

I hate to say it, but the Readme instructions that came with the download were not terribly helpful. For one thing, I am using the Moddir version....yet i still had to install it to a cloned HoI folder. I will strip it and reinstall it. Fingers crossed.
 
Ok, i'm up and running after a new install. Can't imagine what would ahve been wrong. THanks Henry for pointing out the obvious! I'm glad i have a game to play, cause I needed to think about somethign besides all thsoe unanswered posts i have int eh Modding forum ::weeping::

To the Great War I go!

Click to expand...

Some more comprehensive instructions will probably be provided with the next version.........with pictures as well :)
 
Havn't found an answer to this..

I did a search for this, but couldn't find anything, so here goes. Does the stacking limit of 12 for fleets apply to this mod? I'm asking because of the insanely large fleets I'm seeing sailing the world.

I just wanted to find out before I get my navy butchered.
 
If it applies in standard HoI, then it applies in this mod. We haven't (and couldn't) change the basic underlying program, only the datafiles.

Blame the AI for big stacks :D Or include lots of subsidiary leaders in the same stack as the main fleet.
 
Subsidiary leaders won't do much good actually, as the limit is per seazone, not per stack. But anyway, HOI v1.06 shouldn't be that far off, and word has it that the naval combat system is being changed (maybe using the Victoria one?).
 
Corps Set Up

How do you set up your Corps. Do you use all Infantry or all Cavalry. Do you do 1/2 and 1/2. Base this on a General that can have 9 Divisions.

I set mine up with usually 8 Infantry and 2 Cavalry.

Also do you research alot to get Tanks and how much research do you put into Airplanes?

Huh? Are you asking about an ideal Corps setup for the game or start-up corps? Also why the double thread post?

As to research: I research enough into airplanes to get a decent defensive fighter. Tanks are superior if you ask me, but that is just my opinion.
 
Double Post of Doom
 
Can someone please tell me how I install this game, and still making it possible to play the other scenarios?
 
:D
