Many years have passed since my last game of Iron Cross.
Now, thanks to this MOD, I just started a new game.
Good MOD, graphically clean and enjoyable.
But I found a bug on the technology tree.
Speaking of Tank technology, the "Focus on Balanced Quality and Production..." does not deactivate the option "Focus on Mass production...".

Yes, that is a bug. I wanted to return to Iron Cross/Cross of Iron modding and fix it, but I had to reinstall system some time ago and I can't access the game from GamersGate anymore, because of the corrupted download on their part, so it apparently translates into the project staying vBETA18 forever.
What a waste. The forum is dead (or it gets truly uninspiring posts only), the only developer is visiting once per year, and now even the link to the game on GamersGate is dead.
Even Chinky stopped posting and that's telling.

hmmm....JUST tried to download ironcross from gamesgate and had no issue....2 things to keep in mind...and you most likely know this...some anti-virus dont like downloads from gamesgate (for that matter window 10 might put up a hissy fit) so you got to manage your anti-virus to enable download to complete...second thing is...the game was released in a state unplayable and you need the patches to make it playable. I usually get the first patch from gamesgate and after patching get the current patch from this forum. HOPE YOU can solve your issue and keep modding. ty for you work.
So it's up for sale, or it's available to you because you already have it?
Link please?
hio....if you got you get it...but if you want it you dont get it...in otherwords...if you bought you can in download it (maybe)...but if you dont have it you CANNOT BUY IT. BUT...it seems there is an error trying to download the installer from gamesgate...turns out besides having to fight windows 10 and avast anti-virus to get the download started there is an error claiming its being blocked by my isp.
Hey, if you people are still around - I compiled the more finalized version of the mod and it's now available for download. Plus, it's the exact same experience as vanilla Iron Cross, so if you usually play on normal/normal - choose the same for this mod. Cheerio.

Maybe it would make sense to unite efforts and blend this mod into the official version of the game.
Hi Czudak X,
will this work with Dr. Bob`s AI mod?
If yes should it be installed before or after installing Dr. Bob`s?
And sure, I`m an IC die-hard finally back to where I belong.

Hi Czudak, hi all,
I have been quite focused since 2010 on AoD and CORE mod, but I just installed IC over Arma with Cross Of Iron. I don't know whether I did it correctly or not. I followed your instructions:
1 - Install HoI Anthology which gives Arma 1.1
2 - Patch to Arma 1.2
3 - Install directly Iron Cross 1.0 over Arma 1.2
4 - Patch Iron Cross to 1.4rc2
5 - Unzip Cross of Iron 1.0 into mods folder
6 - Select the mod and check options in IronCross_Setup.exe
The checksum for Iron Cross Arma 1.4 is TKPS.
Please could someone check and confirm both procedure and checksum ?
Anyway, HoI 2 was crashing when intializing global variables (W10 and AMD card here) but as soon as I edited the registry there was no problem any longer. I think both Iron Cross and Cross of Iron look really great, I played very smoothly so far and considering what I can see, I think I will enjoy them much.

The installation procedure seems all right to me - you can play smoothly, as you say. So, welcome back to the community! Any AAR to post?
No AAR to post now, as I play quite slowly, maybe later
I play CHI with 1933 scenario, odd to see Independant Hunan with He Jian leading and capital in Huaihua, Shanghai japanese territory is a little bit too much also ^^ I suppose it's intended for game mechanics (AI tweak) rather than historical accuracy
Anyway, it's very different from the same scenario in Darkest Hour, very interesting
For DrBob's AI mod, I don't know, you should make a try with a copy of the game in a new directory, choose some non-influencial country (Afghanistan as an example) and see how it turns out.
However, the modification by both Iron Cross and Cross of Iron is so big and deep, I don't think it should work well.
Hi all,
I suspect Dr. Bob`s SHOULD work as Czudak stated he did not touch the AI and that is what the good Dr. works on. There is an AI folder in CoI though, that`s the reason for my earlier query.
My checksum on ARMA is VCAO with CoI activated. That`s what I see on CoI starting picture. Without CoI it`s TWMR. I have some misgivings though:
- playing as New Zealand I have not got any MP events like refugees arriving or mobilizing female workforce and auxiliaries. So I`m a bit unsure although the game runs smoothly indeed.
I should say that when activating CoI in the IC setup I was notified by Win7 64-bit that "the game may not be properly installed". I disregarded that as I could not think that I made some installation mistake. But who knows...

1. To all, on DrBob's AI mod: Cross of Iron WILL work with that modification.
2. To Tontonseb, on installation procedure: it's correct. The checksum is irrelevant to anything as it's different for almost everyone, because of the multitude options you can select in the IC launcher that change said checksum.
3. To OldTimer, on "not installed correctly" and "no MP events": the first problem is your Windows is 64-bit OS, while IC is a 32-bit program, thus the warning. Also, it displayed because you activated IC launcher, not because of Cross of Iron installation. Also, if you would read the whole changelog for Iron Cross, you would notice that random events (like the one you have mentioned) are popping up less frequently.
@CzudakX
THX for the clarifications. But I´m not aware that "less frequently" equals "not at all". I`m in Aug 1943 and have not had one MP event .

To clarify Dr bob made some events i think can i put those in as well or just the AI folder?
Well, I lied. I have not had any MP events until summer 1944 when I got Man-o-War. Still, I think that they should appear a bit more often. Just a litle bit...
