DMP Add-On "Ostfront"

[Anduril]

you have discovered another bug in GD. You must save the last round from Mius-Mission and than go to main-menu to switch the language to german.
Load the last Mius round and play in german on, than you can deploy all core units.

I have also answered to you here, with picture.

Hi Demyansk,

Hopefully I understand a little bit German (see the DMP link in the other post):

Either you install the patch replacing the previous files (not the full directories) or you download the full Mod 4.11 which should be bug free (I suggest this latest option first and if it does not work then use the patch on top of this).
Personnally I think I did both but honnestly I do not remember anymore.

1. Using version 4.11 (always better the have the latest version of a software, your saved games are somewhere else anyway)

2. Loading the saved game at the end of Mius to see if the campaign goes on normally or not (Kharkov)

3. Using the patch if Kharkov is still there after Mius

You copy-paste the patch content where needed, in the following directories:
files in "Audio" directory for audio part
files in "Data" for Data part
files in "Localization" and so on
files in "UI" and so on

You just replace the files, you do not replace the entire directory!!!

4. You load the latest saved game at then end of Mius to see if the campaign does not lead to Kharkov.

5. If it does not work, use your saved game at the end of the scenario just before Mius, replay Mius then it will be OK.

Normally the whole procedure is not needed if you use version 4.11 of Ostfront.

Personnally I use GME only to test a MOD, when I am satisfied, I copy-paste the full moded game to another directory, this way I can launch an untouched Pz Corps and as many mods as I want. I have also another directory for Pz Corps Afrika Korps.

Hi Fsx,

Hi RobertCL,

if you like, ask your questions at http://www.streitmacht.com (in english or german)
http://www.streitmacht.com/viewforum.php?f=187
The players or the scenario designer would help you.

For the NKWD-unit.
Please, look at my animated battlemap at briefing. You will see the unit and his position on map.

Purchase menu: when you click on the "Fallschirmjäger with canon" infantry unit, the picture is popped up unlike any other pictures. The picture appears of the box during an infinite amount of time.
I see. The update of 1.20 at the end of the work destroyed some changes. I could give you an update, so that you have a bigger unit box in the purchase screen. Please, send me a PM.

PM sent. I shall be glad to have your feedback.

Hi Robert and andrul,

Thanks for giving me the information, I completed this and the game still didn't allow me to place my core but I will go back and play the entire Mius scenario again and maybe it will work?
I am always a little bit confused about where everything is placed for these mods. I have these mods under my slitherine folder in the mods section. Then I use the GME to activate the mods.

I am also downloading the new 4.11 since I was using the (add-on) patch 4.11, I really appreciate your help

Thanks

PS Can someone post a screenshot that perhaps would show what everything looks like in the folders etc?

[RobertCL]

Having a print screen of all directories would be a nightmare.

* Just uninstall your game via GME.
* Download version 4.11 of the mod
* Install it vie GME.
* Install the special patch by copy-pasting the content of each subdirectory to the corresponding subdirectory.
* Then load the saved game BEFORE Mius
* Replay Mius
* Then it should be OK

For your exe file, have this in the shortcut:
Arguments: /nocache

[demyansk]

I made the mistake of deleting all the saved files. Therefore, I installed a fresh version of 4.11 and I guess I will have to start over. If and when I reach that point again, will I need that Mius patch or does the 4.11 take care of that problem?

[RobertCL]

I guess you still need the Mius Patch.
Send me a PM I shall give you my e-mail then I shall send you my saved game: "Mius-Stellung, Turn 25.pzsav.

[Anduril]

In 4.11 the mius-patch is already included and other little bugfixes.


Installation guide for all DMP Add-ons:
Install Ostfront 4.11 in its own folder
Copy the following 6 files
PanzerCorps.exe
PanzerCorps.TXT
Main.TXT
autorun.exe
panzer_launcher.exe
ScenarioEditor.exe
From your original PanzerCorps 1.20 to the folder Ostfront
Run PanzerCorps.exe
Have fun!

Good to know, thank you!

[demyansk]

I loaded up the new version and started with the North Campaign. I really love this game. It's sort of like Battlefield 2 and I get my money's worth

[RobertCL]

If you send me a PM I send you my saved game so that you could see if the Mius issue is solved or not!

[demyansk]

Hi Again,

I was playing the scenario in the Northern campaign and the directions asked me to escort two medical personnel (Riga) units back to a city. I was able to capture all the objectives but I was unable to locate any units for the escort.

Does anyone know where these little guys are?

[RobertCL]

How did you get yours to work?

Exactly where the creators wanted it to be placed: in the following subdirectories of Pz Corps:

• UI
  Data
  Localization
  Audio

You do not copy paste the directories, otherwise you will alter them, a lot of original files (I mean ostfront v 4.1 files) will then become missing!

You select files in UI and copy-paste them in UI
And so on for each directory.

You use the saved game at the end of the scenario before Mius and then Mius restarts properly, it will not lead anymore to Kharkov!

Ostfront 4.1 does not work, Mius patch is mandatory to solve the issue.
DMP should release a new version where Mius Patch is alreay taken into account!!!

The update. Copy the files to UI Folder (mak a backup before).
It will Change the size of the unit frame in purchase Screen.

Thx a lot Fsx, it works like a charm!

fsx UI patch is not included. It is only the Mius patch was inserted and a wrong country assignment has been corrected.

[Cataphract88]

Thanks, Anduril, I was wondering about this too.
