Hi Nighty

That GUI photo, is it a PZKW III with 30 MM low velocity gun?

I would like to start playing your scenario very much, but every hour I check back you have changed something:rolleyes:

When is the more or less "solid" release?

(I know it's BETA, but.......:D )

Looks great anyway!

CANNOT GET STONY ROAD TO WORK

Hey, mightynighty, I have downloaded your zip, read the instructions to unzip and was pleased I only needed to extract to the hearts of iron directory, so I did...................but no nice new GUI and no stony war scenario....:confused: :confused: :confused:

I tried 3 times now, also placed the unzipped files under scenarios, but no go, help!:( :( :(

Some original files will be changed, because until now, maybe this is getting better with future pathces, you cannot change the location of some files.
So you better - i did that here- copy your complete hoi-folder to hoi-2, so you have two identical. Now apply the scenario stony road to the second one and start the game from there.

Works like a charm for me!

No, no Pzkpfw III, it's a IV !
But .. .it's finished :D

As far as if it is solid i can say it is definitely much more of a challenge than the standard scenario and is worth playing therefore.
What will change are some events in the next time.

But i could always need people like holland that play the beta so i can fix it's weak points (like too much ic for germany after france and so on...)
So if you want to be a a help for me, download it now ;-)

After the addition of the events that "regulate" furious expansion by germany before or after poland/france there will be some time of only minor tweaking, no additions then.

hi hendriks.
The gui addon and the scenario itsself are completely seperate things. you can install the graphical addon without the scenario installed and vice versa.
Just be sure that the folders match:
.../hearts of iron/gfx/... is your directory.

you have to copy the gfx-folder in the zip into th /Hearts of Iron/ -Folder and not into gfx ...
Because if you do that you got /h o i/gfx/gfx/

The scenario is like /stony road/X

copy all the X folders into your /Hearts of iron/


should work ..

just had a hands off with stony road and when i looked back it was april 1940 and germany had already built 300 militia divisions ;-) Poland was still alive and kicking, netherlands still sat in antwerpen and belgium was completely intact..

the us which i trimmed for air superiority i kicked in manually into the war va event, oh man, they bombed the hell out of europe with their 112 air divisions

Stupid still doesn't get it

Nighty, thanks for the tank picture, great one!

I am, however, still puzzled how to get your scenario to work, I am computer illiterate, sorry about that.

Can you just, in very plain terms, tell me exactly what to do, I need only the scenario to work.

So, I downloaded the zip, where do I unpack to, to /hearts of iron or what? So please just tell me in some steps what to do, and I see many things in this zip, ai files/music files/etc, I am sure they all need to go somewhere?

Example;

"Nighty's reply to stupid hendriks"

Okay hendriks, you unpack the entire zip into your scenario's folders, so /hearts of iron/scenario's.:p :p

Nighty, when I double click on your zip, I don't see any folders, only 326 files, I can see your ("stony road to war 1936 - ") file, but it's a file, not a folder, when I click on that, I only see a text file with text about the scenario. I tried again to unpack to /hearts of iron and it unpacks, but when I start up the game, I don't see your scenario, so I am still sad and it's a slow day at the office, so I can get some game hours in today ;)

I have winzip32, and I don't see that option anywhere, so, just tell me which of the 326 files to put where, what I can do is look for the .ai files in the ai folder of HOI and just replace everything all the time, I uninstall/install all the time, so that's no problem for me. I can do it that way with all the files, but that's not how it should be of course.

Thanks anyway

Hi Night,

Ok i think its the first time playing HOI i got grumpy hehe. You devil! Poland fell (too) quick but a powerfull Dutch / French offensive created a problem because most of my troops where fighting in Poland. The beefed up allied unit did better then i anticipated. Even lost about 10 divisions lol!

I am happy till now.

I did get work eff 1 for free (didnt cost nothing to research 0 ic 0 days) Dont know if thats a bug or not.

Work eff II researched at 11 dec '37 Am afraid this will lead to the same insane ic after getting France/Belgium?Netherlands. But who knows maybe i get slammed by the French hehehe will let you know.

Cheers

@holland & stony road #b8 final

holland,
thx for the feedback, indeed there was an error in the costs of the we1 that lead to zero research time. it is fixed now.


btw, have a look at the new gui_menu, now featured in the gui_package...


I further announce that i call the version now Stony Road build 8 final:

* fixed we-techs. you should not be able to get we2 before 1940...
* fixed a research bug where the uk wouldn't spend more than 50IC for research ..




Stony Road build9 will feature:

* all the same or better AI
* events that regulate expansion and alignments

A bug in the UK research ;)

They are really putting pressure on me with their 89 org. For the first time i am hesitating on how to proceed. In the south i need to have at least 35-40 div to withhold the French from succesfully attacking from the Maginot line. North is under a lot of pressure from invasions. I have 54 div for the Belgium/French campaign. Facing 40 Begium divisions in their level 1-3 forts (Could be bloody) And thats a first i need to have an armoured central reserve to defend the North. Kriegmarine is hiding after a naval assault of 60 allied ships (UK and France near Rostock)

Sigh Russian front is very very undermanned if they DOW i am toast hehe

Building fighters like crazy. I expect the USA to DOW soon and their hordes of flying missery will have to met with all the IC's i have lol.

For the first time i am glad i got the work eff II without it I dunno.....

Cheers
