Didn't even see the darn link for Pac Mod above, thanks Shreken... however, when I downloaded the pacmod coi beta, it basically acted the same when as when I tried to convert .pln to .cc3, it told me it didn't think the PacMod.cc3 was the correct file. What am I doing wrong here? Should I try again, those shots from Edward look like hes got it working.

Ok downloading full file now. I'm switching between a macintosh to my laptop (which isn't receiving wifi right now) so this is all very annoying and time consuming. (Esp. because the girlfriend is not a friend of Close Combat.) Regardless thanks for trying to help me out, I'll get this to work soon.

Shreken, is there a website or post you can direct us to that can show us how to convert .PLN to .cc3? I'd love to check out some of the CC3 mods that I never got around to back before the revisions came out. ( I always had 56k and missed them the first time around).

open install.txt in notepad (found in *.pln)
open mod.ini with notepad (found in *.cc3)
you can easily see how mod.ini relates to install.txt
basically
put all the files for the mod in one folder
create a mod.ini file with notepad or copy it from another mod.
edit it so it reads
filename place in destination folder
Elements.txt=\data\base\
Do this for every file in the mod
save the mod.ini file
zip all the files together and and rename it modname.cc3
voila
ready to install with modswap

I got the Pac Mod beta for COI. Working OK. Thanks.
One of the best things about Close Combat III was that you could play almost any theatre of WWII with the various mods quickly and easily. Converting over all the CC3 to COI would be great for h2h games at Gameranger. Play an Op with a friend of 1940 France vs Germany. Mod swap play Western Front 1945 single day battle US vs Germ. Modswap, play Pacific Mod USMC vs Japan Guadalcanal Op.

Of the Mods that havn't been ported what five would you like to have for COI most?
My Picks:
TT's Veterans Mod v1.2
Real Read 0822
Afrika v1.2
Panzerjager II
Overlord v110

CoI is just about RR0822 - Ron gave his permission for his data changes to be used for CoI

Right, I understood that. But if you are a player or a modder and want to play RR0822 or study it in its "pure" form you have to go back to CC3 and deal with all the issues of CC3. For someone with Vista it's a real pain to get everything to work right. For example when I play CC3 now, I can't move left right up down on the map, I have to click on the mini map to look around the battlefield and the scroll speed is all whacked. When I switch between mods the files stick. Its a mess.
A solution for me would be to have RR 0822 converted to COI so that I could play it h2h and use it as I would any other mod. If someone converts RR then many of the sub mods like RR SS Mod RR with Iron Cross Sound would be available as well. I understand that COI teams and GCs are meant to be RR v10 and thats cool (assuming at some point the AT gun issue is fixed) but RR would be great to have for posterity on the COI platform. Some nice artwork (the original had none) with the Colonel's name on the Main Page. That would be a fitting tribute to Ron's seminal work.
In the same vein, having the original Close Combat III Teams & Graphics, including the dreaded Wurfs, etc. Would be fun to have on the COI platform as well.
