Alter weather and visibility during game .... - Spud - 09-10-2009

Guys,

I was wondering how to alter weather and visibility during a game?

Am currently playing Agony in Huertgen and want change to muddy or winter alternative from WF UserMods and cut visibility.

Am aware I can alter both in Scenario Editor, but an on turn 24 of and don’t want to have to start again. Just want to alter them from where I am.

Spud.

Spud,

There is no way to change them through the normal game engine. Supposedly there is a way to edit the save file, but I don't know the details. I assume that this is a game against the AI?

It can be done, yes.

Send me the file and tell me what you would like changed, and I'll see about changing it for you.

Jason, Mike ..

Thanks for quick replies, but have managed to work it out, or at least I think so.

They may be another way to switch weather conditions mid-game, but .... what I did was open battle file as a word document, and cut and paste the second line of the numbered encoding - which denotes weather conditions - from a winter game into the file.

I believe the top line is visibility, so needed to alter that too.
