Hi, I'm playing CC5 by stream.
At the time of creating the campaign it does not leave me more than 4 days.
A steam colleague told me that modifying the Campaign.txt and fpool.txt files can be achieved.

The first part (Campaign.txt) I have succeeded but the fpool.txt does not work for me, it seems to me this screen I have tried to modify but I can not do it, any idea or experience.

Thanks

First, check that you have the correct forcepool count in the upper left spreadsheet cell (A1). This number should be one greater than the index number for your last forcepool because all CC index counts start at 0, not 1.

If that isnt the problem, zip your Campaign.txt and fpools.txt files and attach that .zip to a post in this thread. Use the "Post Reply" button. Quick Reply doesnt permit attachments.

I see three problems -

You repeat the day count in column B starting on row 24. It should be:
4
4
4
4
4
5
5
5
5
5
...
24
24
24
24
24

The second problem is that there are 25 days (x 5 difficulty levels) of forcepools for 501 / 101st Airborne but only 4 days (x 5 diff) of forcepools for all the other battle groups. If your campaign is to be 25 days then all BGs need 25 days (x 5 difficulty levels) of forcepools.

See the Meuse mod for TLD for an example of the fpools.txt file in a 25 day campaign.

The third problem is that rows 42, 82, 122, 127 are incomplete. There are 25 unit 'slots' in each forcepool row. Unused slots should get -1, 0 in their two spreadsheet cells.

If you dont already have it, the workbooks for all the re-releases are invaluable for editing. They define every different column in the various Data/Base files. These are found in the Downloads>Tools section for each version.
