Mod Installation - A Bridge Too Far
STEP 1
Make a full install of Close Combat 5 Invasion Normandy to
your harddrive, into the default folder. (C:/Program Files/SSI/Close
Combat Invasion Normandy/)
STEP 1 COMPLETE
STEP 2 Download the following file from CCS:
CCVPatch501a.exe
Run this EXE file and DO NOT change any settings. Just
keep pressing next no matter what it says. As long as you installed
Close Combat 5 into the default folder, this patch will patch the game
without you having to change anything. Once the patch is installed open
up CC5 and look in the bottom right for the version number. The picture
below is what you should see.
If you do not see 5.01 in the bottom right then you either do not
have a full install of CC5 or you changed something while installing
the patch, or you do not have CC5 installed to the default folder.
STEP 2 COMPLETE
STEP 3
Download the following file from CCS:
CfgV13.zip
- This is Config Manager v1.3. Its used to install plugins into
Close Combat 5.
Unzip CfgV13.zip into "C:/Config Manager" If the folder does not
already exist, create it. Refer to the image below to what Config
Manager should look like on your harddrive after its unzipped.
Once Config Manager is installed to your harddrive right click
Cfgv13.exe and select Properties from the menu. Now select
Compatibility. Ensure you check the box that says "Run this program as
an Administrator" and press ok. Windows XP/Vista/7 sometimes will not
let this program install files into your C:/Program Files/SSI folder.
Running it as administrator will allow it to. If you do not do this you
may get an "Error Code=3" message when trying to install a mod.

Optional Sub Mods
Included with ABTF v1.05 are four additional sub mods. These will
modify the voices you hear in combat. Refer to the descriptions on what
they do. You can also right click them and read the included readme.txt
file for more info. Additional, you
should not install more than one submod at once. If you wish to hear
other voices, uninstall the other submod, then install the one you wish
to hear. Installing more than one submod will corrupt your installation
and may require you to reinstall CC5.
You are now ready to play A Bridge Too Far.
If you have any problems with your install post them here
in the Invasion Normandy Forum.
