Posted: Tue Oct 07, 2008 9:10 pm Post subject: Running Mods in XP
I bought the Close Combat Trilogy in 8th grade. I almost exclusively played A Bridge Too Far until High School, occasionally playing The Eastern Front when I felt the urge.
I didn't get into Close Combat I until I was well into my sophomore year. After several campaigns against my friend across town, I decided to find out if there were any mods available (I loved the Pacific Front and WW1 for CC2).
If I remember correctly, there was an Italian Campaign and a revamped Normandy Campaign that I got to work. Unfortunately my friend could never mod his CC1 and I played solo.
By Senior year I had almost created a mod of my own, although I could never get my maps to load correctly. The following year I went to college and joined a local Fraternity, which no doubt has led to severe memory issues regarding Close Combat and all the other fun games I used to play when I was younger.
So finally, at the end of the long winded and nostalgic post, I have one question:
How can I get the mods working for my computer?
Here is some info:
I can't lie, I scratched my original copy and downloaded it off of the internet.
I run windows XP on my aging laptop (which still runs CCI-V perfectly).
I am familiar with the command lines and have several different Close Combat installations.
Can anyone help me with an installation of one of the many mods available from this AWESOME website?
I used to post a lot in the GICOMBAT forum, although I can't remember what I used for an Alias. I know you guys are very good at giving instructions...
Thank you all for years and years of fun, I'll check back periodically to see if anyone was able to answer my question. (And no doubt go back and read the installation instructions within the archives of this fine site.)
