A new addition!

(which needs you to pay attention!)

Now available in the community crate is Conboy's 3d Infantry Campaing. A 20 scenario venture on every front of the Western Theatre!

You can download it from the community crate in the top-right in the main menu.

Once downloaded, please go to Documents\My Games\Order of Battle - WW2\Campaigns\3d infantry and unzip the file there into the same folder.

You should see something similar to the attached image.

Then just restart the game and select SINGLE PLAYER, then hit the Custom Content button on the bottom-left of the window that opens. You'll find the new campaign in that list.

Apologies that this requires a little bit more work than most things from the crate, but I'm sure you'll agree that it's worth it!!!

Thanks

Well done, Conboy, from somebody who knows how long and how much effort it takes to make a quality campaign.

Thank you Bru,
Soon I'll give the free French campaign a whirl.

By the way, I should add that you were a great help on this. You checked the campaign set-up and at least 5 scenarios.

Thanks again!

Did that, conboy. Only thing that shows up under custom content is Nygard's Afrika Corps, which I downloaded earlier, even though the Campaigns folder shows your 3rd Infantry folder in it along with Afrika Corps. Under Custom Content there is only the face plate for Afrika Corps - no list of Campaigns. ???

You should find the zipped file in the My Games....Campaigns...3d infantry folder.
Unzip/extract the file in the same folder.

How much content does Community Crate actually have? Erik2 made lots of custom campaigns, but I don't see them and some other community-made campaigns being mentioned here.

The Crate includes a few samples of what is available.
You'll find a lot more in the Scenario Design sub-forum.
