Scenario Editing Question - Ocito80 - 10-03-2006 I'm looking to start doing some editing and creating new scenarios, my question is. Are there blank maps for the games to work with or am I stuck having to remove the units/obstacles/mines/trenches etc...etc..? Presently I'm looking at Moscow 41, Kurks 43 or Stalingrad 42 as a starting point. Ocito RE: Scenario Editing Question - Engelbrekt - 10-04-2006 RE: Scenario Editing Question - Ocito80 - 10-04-2006 ok, got that. What about adjusting Fatigue and losses to units, do you need to do this for each individual unit or is there a command/way to adjust it for all. Would stacking be the best way to do this? RE: Scenario Editing Question - Richrd - 10-04-2006 You have to do it unit by unit or stack by stack. RE: Scenario Editing Question - JonS1 - 10-04-2006 If you intend to use the whole map, there is no requirement to create a sub-map. Just go through the motions of creating a new scenario, and when it asks for which map you intend to use specifiy the main *.map file. The scenario will be created with a "naked" map. Mines, impassible, etc are all scenario-specific (not map-specific), so if you create a fresh scenario you start with nothing. As for editting fatigue, etc, stack by stack is it, although you can also edit the *.scn file directly (although to edit more than a couple of units that way would probably be difficult than using the game scen editting GUI), or you could use the "PzC NEW Scenario editor" available at Glenn's site. Be a bit careful with it though - it seems to me that with very large scenarios (in essence: full campaigns) it gets confused and arbitrarily deletes chunks of the file. Regards JonS RE: Scenario Editing Question - Ocito80 - 10-04-2006 With adjusting each unit, does it have to be such a click fest or is there a shortcut key? I could not find one. :( RE: Scenario Editing Question - JonS1 - 10-04-2006 click fest. Or, get a text editor which can handle regular expressions (Notetab Lite is my editor of choice), learn how to use standard expressions to perform elegant 'search and replace' operations, and edit the scn file (or an OOB file) that way. Or use the tool I mentioned in my previous post.

I could not find one. :( There is HOT keys too but unfortunately there is not thought commands :) As for the scn editor you mentioned - it doesn't just delete chucks at will. What happened is the scn file format has changed and new more advanced scn which have new features are not supported in the editor. Once it runs into something it doesn't recognize, then it stops writting - hope that takes some of the mystery out of it. Glenn |
