Hello,

I've just installed France 1940 mod (v3.0) and wanted to try it out straight away so clicked on first battle "D-Day France" and... CTD:o I tried it a couple of times and could get only to units deployment and after that... CTD Crying or Very sad

Here's the pic with mod installed:


Btw, I also tried the second map "First stand" and it's the same problem:/

Could anyone tell me please what's wrong with those two maps? And how to fix them?

Thank you in advance:)

ps.
I copied all the maps that I downloaded from this site (the mappack to be exact).


EDIT:
Another problem with this mod Evil or Very Mad



Is this mod playable actually?

Better late then never. The mod has a file with a really strange name. I just copied this file in the data/base directory out of the mods directory (pln file is just a zip file). Only this mod calls this strange named file, so just putting the file directory is sufficient.

I hope this helps you with running the mod.

Hello,

I will try to explain it a bit better.

First you need to unzip the pln file. You can do this easily by renaming the x.pln to x.zip. I aso attached my names.txt, so that you do not have to unzip the pln file.

After the unzip, you will see a names.txt file with special characters before the name.txt . If not, you have to rename the extracted names.txt to the name as shown in your screenshot.

Copy this names.txt to the data\base folder (you can see the name of the file and path in your screenshot). Only the 1940 mod uses this names.txt file.So it doesn't influence the normal and other mods installments.

The most difficult part is to get the special characters. You can do this by using the "character map" under start/accessories/system tools. With this you select the character and with copy and paste you put it in front of your names.txt.

One strange thing. I had the same problem on a different PC, but here the special characters were different. The same holds for the screenshot. here also different special characters are shown. So it depends on your windows version and language settings.

I will check the forum in case there are more questions. good luck with renaming.

With kind regards,

Hapshott
