I would hope that maybe some kind sole might be able to help you with the dreaded
"red circle" placement on the map preview screen.

Make stone walls provide atleast good or even better yet great cover.
It would make playability much better.
Is having the Pistol facing the opposite direction by choice?

Level 2 buildings in town maps like Chania and Galatas do not have Level Markers (numbers) on both interiors and roofs. At first I thought all the buildings were Level 1...but some of them are coded as Level 2.
Great looking maps, BTW!

Not really bugs but just advice on things that might improve the looks.

1) Change the Next button on the Soldier screen to not show a white arrow.It just makes it look like that is an option when it isnt.

2) Cover up the tiny yellow dots on the zoomed out map.

On one battle I destroyed a Tank and as soon as I did the vehicle crew text showed up many many yards away.(Look by the Bridge)

Please dont take my graphic advice the wrong way.I can be very anal about things somethimes.

Hi All,

Thanks for the feedback, i'll check into the issues when i have some more spare time.

@flick:

-Did you unzip the maps in the correct CCIV maps (standard C:\Program Files\Close Combat IV\Maps) folder.

-Check if you didn't have the "subfolder" option on.

-Did you first unzip your maps before installing the mod?

You do have to install the maps for any CCIV mod "Before" installing the plugin.
If you didnt thats why and it's ok.
Just use the CfgIV27 program to uninstall the mod,then reinstall and you will be ok.
Assuming you did put the maps in the right folder and they werent sub-foldered.

Where would I see it as sub-folded? As far as I can see it, I've done everything correctly.

I put the new maps into the main map folder, then I installed the plug in. But the maps won't load.

You would see a folder inside your CCIV maps folder,thats all.
I got my version from Aetius's ftp site but I assume it;s the very same files you guys have.

Are both of you getting the same error message?
Or is it one of you has no install txt for the plugin and one of you cant view maps?

Maybe try deleting all the Kreta files and unzip them again.

Hi Desertmouse,

Have you had problems with your CC4 config manager before?

When an install goes wrong the best thing to do is uninstall the game, and delete all remaining files that where "left behind" by the uninstaller in the default CCIV folder (C:\Program Files\Close Combat IV).

A manual install is very tricky, avoid it at all cost.

This is the procedure which should work to install the CC4 Crete mod:

-Install the CCIV stock game into the default path on your C drive
-Install the official Atomic patch for CCIV
-Click the CC4.exe, enter the mainscreen, click the options tab and disable video’s
-Install the CCIV Config Manager (CfgIV27) by Zeppo
-Unzip the mapfiles in your mappack into the C:\Program Files\Close Combat IV\Maps directory
-Unzip the CC4-Kreta v1.0.zip and put the CCIV Kreta v1.0.pln plugin file into your Plugins directory of your Config Manager install.
-Run the CfgIV27.exe
-Select the plugin in the “not installed” window, click your RMB and select install
-Wait until you get a message box, and click OK.
-The CCIV Kreta v1.0mod has now been installed

Could you tell me during wich step of the above procedure you are experiencing difficulties?

It sounds like he has enough pc knowledge to do a manual install. Most mods were manual install a one time, Vet BoB, GJS, Okinawa etc. I have seen trouble with Cfg manager before, when there's nothing wrong with the install.txt file.

However, Desertmouse, you say you had olive trees in Bastogne. It sounds like the elements file and the data file is in the right place, but you shouldnt be playing a Bastogne game. If you do a manual install it is unlikely you removed the original CC4 games.
Is there a Keta GC or OP or single battle available?
If you try to create a game does it show the Kreta strat map / units?
If so try to create a single battle on a Kreta map.

Good luck....

Hi Aetius
I have some questions after 2 battles in GC.
I have started GC and marked the time in 15 minutes, it remains hidden (very well is an option for veterans, I want to know how to do it ') but I have played for more than 15 minutes about 20 then I asked truce.
In the post ad, speaks of "Use the standard installation for H2H play and for the vetmods play against the AI", but there is just plug in h2h files however Ai play hard.
The Jager Luger with no scavenging perhaps this is a problem of the game.

congratulations Smile

Hi,

I did a few manual installs in the past, nomather how carefull i was i forgot to install files or overwrite files that shouldn't be overwritten, and when there are vetmods or other "subplugins" it got really messy.

Config manager never gave me any troubles, but that could be PC related.

@desertmouse

I honestly don't have a clue why your CC4.exe won't install.
Ill check the install text, but i don't think i will find something since most people don't have problems with it.

-I'm not sure if i understand your question could you explain with a screenshot if possible?

-The CC4 Crete vetmods haven't been added to the download section, i'll ask mooxe to add them.

-The jager team with lugers should indeed scavenge, i'll check it out.

Thanks for your comments

I forgot that in CC4 there is a slight difference in the setting than CC5.

When force morale gets too low can not be set and I have not checked when time expires, this means that the time has never end?
I find that not to see the time remaining in the game is more difficult for the person, so that it can not do calculations maybe waiting a few seconds before the order to occupy a vl for example.
You think possible to have this option in CC? That is not to see the time remaining until the end of the game? Razz

It is possible, one can replace the time digits with blank (white) images so no time disply is shown.

Yes Smile

thx
Here an first example.
I apologize to Aetius for the image of another mod
This is to say that not knowing the remaining of the time, in this case is hazardous to an approaching vl to conquer in the last seconds without having a reaction dell'ai.
In this case, after the Russians conquered the southern 2 vl, I attempt to regain the "alleged" end of the game, but it was too early and Ai react and destroy my men.

#35: Can't install the plugin Author: Knecht,

Hello all,

I'm looking forward to trying this Kreta mod but have come across a bit of a poser. . .the Kreta plugin was unzipped and is sitting in the Plugins folder but when I run the Manager (CfgIV27) there is nothing to install. It's as if the Manager doesn't recognize there is something in the Plugins folder. I deleted and reinstalled both the manager and the plugin but still get the same result. Any ideas in how to correct this?

Thanks.

Hi knecht,

-Is CC4 installed in the default directory?
C:\Program Files\Close Combat IV
The plugin manager gives troubles if this is not the case.

-Verify that the *.pln files are visible in the config manager plugins folder without being in subfolders.

I think I found a small bug:

on first day of the campaign the bg shown in the screenshot had a strange team in it called "dummy". As you can see, the team has a picture showing brits and they are armed to their teeth. I suppose this is a test team that somehow slipped in. Perhaps aetius can fix this for a upcoming patch.

Hi GS_Schimpf,

You can edit the force pools for each difficulty level in the CC4 BGedit tool, but it would be a lot of work to do this for each seperate turn.
To save time i only did the veteran Vs Veteran difficulty and created vetmods for a tougher challange.

TT already used this system in his VetBoB mod, i just copied it from the CC4 modding master.

Playing on any difficulty level besides Vet vs Vet will cause weird force pools, so don't.

Hi,

I never played the CC4 VetBoB mod on anything but Vet Vs Vet so it could be only an "image error".

The CC4 Kreta force pools are only entered for the vet Vs Vet level so playing on other settings might give strange results.

I remember that BGedit has a function to copy all force pools from one difficulty setting to another chosen difficulty setting, i might try this and make light changes to battlegroups in a future version of the mod.

Great mod Aetius, being a pure vs. AI so far it's the best I played! Smile

But...
A) -Anybody else noticed that German soldiers that surrenders disappears from the map, or is just my graphic file that is messed up? (They are there, but you can't see them... None mentioned it so I get a bit uncertain... Confused

)
B) -The overall AI is great, but is it possible to do something about its "street fighting skill"? I'm having my own Arnhem up in Chania and the AI's attacks is like the charge of the light Brigade! Rolling Eyes

Only two reasons that I loose ground/soldiers; -his artillery and my lack of ammo.

Keep up the good work, you and the other have created a masterpiece here! :ok2

Mmm, nice mod; I played a little and looks excellent.
My notices: the greeks didn't have any Hotchkiss M1924/29. They had the Hotchkiss M1922/26 instead.
Additionally, they had a couple of Mannlicher carbines and a grenade launcher as well in every squad. This second comment of course is valid for main greek army, and the greek forces in Crete weren't such, so I suppose one can assume their composition was simpler.
A bug?: I nstalled the greek voices plugin, but that changes the voices of all allied troops into greek. Is that a problem of CCIV or of the mod only? (-cause in CCV more languages can be used for the same side)

Info on the Greek army and it's equipement was really hard to find, especialy since i can't read Greek.
So any info you might have would be more than welcome.

I didn't know more languages could be used for the same side in CC5, i'll have to check this but it would surprise me if this is the case.
In CC4 there is only 1 allied voice file and 2 german voice files (1 in german and 1 in english with german accent).

Quote:

The arty observers in the Greek force pools are the same teams as in the other creforce force pools.
Are you playing the vetmod?
If so, the creforce arty teams are devastating, to make it very tough for the german side

I'd like to help, but I don't actually know much myself. I'm Greek, so
I know some details of the Greek army, but not more than that that many people already know. Depends on what you seek.

Have been playing the mod, and I noticed that MMGs are quite ineffective. To be honest, I relied much on them when playing regular CC, and makes me feel slightly out of my waters.

Aetius, please. Does Kreta's mod work with the same ports of CCV or it needs more or different ports? I can't connect via IP. First, the connection (a good ADSL line) is aborted a few seconds after the connectiont. In the subsecuents intents, my friend didn't see the game in his screen (doesn't appear the game creatted for me: I'm the host) At the end we tried with the Close Combat WAR and we played without problems...

Hi Von Manstein,

The mod hasn't been tested H2H via IP and i personaly never played this way either CC4 or CC5.
It should probabaly work the same way as stock CC4, can you unisntall the Kreta mod and try playing stock CC4 via IP.

Don't know if this is an error, or just a flaw in the CC4... :what2

My first experience of this was when I placed an engineer squad in the building by the prison entrance vl with a Twisted Evil

smile;
-Just to see what felt like 200 maori rifle coming from the north-east...

Have a picture of this "super-Bren": -this is the THIRD time it drives over a L3 wall!! Smile

Have also noticed the same phenomena at the castle on the Castle Hill map; -The brave defenders just moves right of the walls if you have them on defence or orders them to move...

Is it possible to make these walls "real walls", that is impassable except at the 'right' places?

Don't know if this is an error, or just a flaw in the CC4... :what2

My first experience of this was when I placed an engineer squad in the building by the prison entrance vl with a Twisted Evil

-Just to see what felt like 200 maori rifle coming from the north-east...

Have a picture of this "super-Bren": -this is the THIRD time it drives over a L3 wall!! Smile

This is not CC4 but a coding error made by me.

I'll add it to the bug list.

Thanks for posting the bug.

You really apreciate how tough para troopers are, when you rely on their MG teams keeping calm and accurate.

A little late to the party, but just wanted to say that this is a great mod, I've been playing it for the last 3 days and been having a lot of fun. It is challenging as is with out the vetmods, I already lost a BG(!) and have another on a tight spot. I like the huge variation of teams, it is refreshing. As for bugs I have not found any crippling ones, only the ones mentioned here and of course the crewed weapons without crew assigned. I should make a little fix for this for all the mods.

Hello,
I was just curious,Are these maps still available in the original full size?

And is there any updates on the horizon?

Hi,

The full size original maps where not coded when i started the Crete mod, only the cut up maps where coded.

But i might have the original maps in *.pdf or *.jpeg somewhere on my backup CD's i've made years ago.

No, No updates on the horizon.
I stopped playing(modding) the classic CC games when i bought my 24" screen, i can't seem to find a screen size that works for me.

However i've often thought what a good platform LSA would make for the Crete mod.
The ability to merge BG's is ideal for Crete, depleted units/regiments/sturmgruppen could merge to KG's as they did historically.
Unfortunately i don't have the time anymore to do this.

If you want i'll see if i can find the full size originals and mail them to you.

Hi Aetius - long time have not seen you around. I have the same issue trying to find good screen size for my 23" LED monitor...and have issues running all the classic CC games on Windows 7. However all the re-releases work fine on the wide screen monitor and Windows 7.

Yes maybe there is a way you can share your great work on this mod and one day the CC community can convert to LSA / TLD / PitF. I bought PitF on sale for only $20 and it works especially good on larger monitor.

Weren't you working on other mods also as I recall?

I still lurk around, playing the Kharkov mod on WAR now.
max screen resolution setting on the re-releases also work fine for me (i own WAR and LSA).

Original full scale maps where made by Moloch and Dom, if someone is planning to convert the mod to the re-release games, please feel free to use anything you want from the CC4 Crete mod.

No, i wasn't working on any other mods.

Link isn't working? Best documentary I saw on Crete invasion was the Discovery Channel "Wings of the Luftwaffe". Was that what you found? Not many left remaining on YouTube. Also Wings of the Red Star was very good.
