Does anyone know if you can use Black Ice or other mods if you got you game from Steam?
 
in the BI offical tread there is the explanation how to install the mod... and links to download it

Don't know what I did wrong, but it didn't work. Guess I'll have to give it another try tomorrow.
 
You can UNLESS you have XP. That mod fails to advertise that it is broken (and will not be fixed) for XP. All Black ICE is, is a heavily scripted (heavy is being nice) game with new units. I would suggest going to HPP, or some other mod. You'll get more out of them.
 
Iggel, sorry for taking so long to answer. I downloaded the mod and the patch. I created a folder called black ice in the mod folder and extracted the mod. I did not see what looked like an executable file, so then I did the same for the patch. Again, I checked, and still not executable. I started the game, there was no mod to choose.
 
copy the HoI III folder to some place, install all the BI stuff in the thf sub-folder and try to execute the THF_EXE, that worked for me at least

If there's no mod to choose then that means the *.mod file is missing. Check the folder you extracted, it might be a level or two down, in which case you'll have to copy the entire folder structure up.
 
I have been playing the latest version of Black Ice 8.54. I play as Italy and I used the event build desert corps (don't remember the exact name) It took ~30IC fro 2 years and when I deployed it it was just a corps HQ with no divisions. Is this intended or a bug?
