[Sparatacus]

[quote="italianopribe"]I really like playing 1941, but I just can not get it to download. If you have it downloaded, and would like a match or 2, put it on the challenges. Use the password david and I will accept it.

I will be gone from Dec. 25 to Dec 28. So if you challenge at that time, it will have to wait until I get back.

Hopefully, you can get the challenge in today or tomorrow[/quote


I should be free again in couple of days been working like crazy 1 day off last 30 days!

Try this download

Hi Spartacus,

Will you design an improved version of the standalone scenario to be played versus AI ?

When you have time of course, there is no hurry...

[Sparatacus]

Oh most definitely! Quite a few things to fix so give me a few weeks.

And as always any recommendations, suggestions, comments are most welcome!

[RobertCL]

Take your time since I am testing two other campaigns, I just think your map has a future so good standalone scenarios are really welcome.

[Sparatacus]

Working on improvements for map couple more weeks should have a new version. Thanks

[Sparatacus]

Just keeping update for things to be change in most recent update!

Change log:

Axis unit in north atlantic to be removed
Panzer IVJ Unit to spawn turn 75

I don't get how to download this. I download to mydocuments/mygames/panzercorps but there is no scenario option after that. I cannot find anyway to get this to work. I have never downloaded a scenario like this, so what am I missing?

[Sparatacus]

When you install PanzerCorps it creates two directories one is where main game is and other is Mydocuments etc;

All your saved games etc will also be in this branch as well so you could save a game then search for that file. It should take you to right place! Then just go up one folder to the scenario folder.

Let me know if this works for you!

[Marklen]

The problem is I am downloading it to the correct file, but it shows as a word file. Do I need to do it .pzsav? How do I make is an executable file.?

[Sparatacus]

It will look like a notepad file and it should be type PZSCN and PZloc files. It should work have you tried running it in game i.e via the scenario menu?

[Wildthing]

I think you need to create a folder "scenario" oder "scenarios" (i do not remember) in the ..myGames/PanzerCorps - directory and place the files there. Choosing the 1941-sceanrio from the "scenarios" --> custom ---> 1941 works fine

[Cataphract88]

Just checked this and it is Scenario

[Marklen]

Ok, there is obviously a step that you guys take for granted, but that I, never having downloaded a scenario before, am no aquainted with. Here is what I did.

I created a Scenario folder under MyDocuments/MyGames/PanzerCorps
I downloaded the RAR file above to that folder
I clicked on Play, and tried new game, and it is not there.

What am I missing?

[Sparatacus]

Did you decompress file?

[Cataphract88]

In order to get a custom scenario to work (after placing it in the Scenario file that you must first create) do the following:

Click on New Game.
On the main Panzer Corps screen there is a tab marked 'Scenario' on the top left-hand side. Click on this.
Scroll down selection of scenarios given to bottom, where it says 'Custom'. Click this.
The 'Load Scenario' screen then comes up and should show '1941' - hopefully

Idea is smashing, and map is lovely. Not detailed as i would hope. But i guess, the size of the map has limits?

As for gameplay. Its awesome . Especially hotseat mode. Brilliant stuff man. I do have problems with allies and CTD when i want to buy new cores...

[Sparatacus]

CTD means? sorry not up with the play!

Thanks for comments glad to see people are enjoying it. The map is huge, before I did this one I had one that was 4 times the size but it was just so much work but maybe one day I finish that gargantuan map lol it would be better for the range of ships and artillery and that kind of thing.

This size is lacking details if you mean cities etc; well there has to be some room to move your units about!

Still haven't decided about having a proper core and auxiliary group etc; but you can buy as many units as you like either side at this stage.

[BlackeyeVuk]

Oh sorry. Mostly bug with initial panzer corps game. As ive heard , if PzC goes beyond 1gb memory usage , it crashes . CTD= Crash to Desktop.
Big map = big memory usage. So people should avoid using animations in your map. Should use /nocashe in shortcut .Eg "E:\Program Files\Panzer Corps\autorun.exe" /nocashe

As for thee map. I'll edit it meself for details. Im no guru at this stuff, but initial editor is enough for details. Tnx for excellent map. Me and me girl love it.[Yess my GF is panzercoprs freak.]

[Sparatacus]

Ah yes there is a bit about that in thread but I shall add it in the start! I am going to do another update soon so any ideas etc let me know and I will do my best to incorporate them. Thanks

How can I apply for testing your awesome scenario.?
I love to play on big maps, I 'm currently playtesting Jeff Crouches PGX ETO scenario (A clone of the classic PG).
Yours looks very simular in size.
