JTCS vs. Expansion disk 1. - Big Ivan - 01-29-2010 Hello Blitz folks, Somewhere I thought I read a while back that the scenarios given in Expansion disk 1 for EFII were not compatible with JTCS??! If I'm dreaming tell me to wake up and have a cup of coffee! If I'm not dreaming can anyone thell me why they are not compatible?! I assume loosely at this point it has something to do with unit coding but I'm not sure as I'm not a frontline computer guru. There were some good ones there in Expansion 1 like Bake to the Rescue and Boxberg to name a couple that need to be converted to JTCS. Is this possible?

Is this possible? See if some of them are in the download section (Talonsoft version) & see what happens. Good question. Jason will know. RE: JTCS vs. Expansion disk 1. - Big Ivan - 01-29-2010 Doesn't appear so BD. Everytime I hit the download for these two scenarios I get an error that the file can't open. Thanks Ivan the Big:smoke: RE: JTCS vs. Expansion disk 1. - Jason Petho - 01-30-2010 Mainly because they use different platoon##.obx files, which are not compatible. I am updating my scenarios to release with the 1.05 or 1.06 UPDATE. Jason Petho RE: JTCS vs. Expansion disk 1. - Huib Versloot - 01-30-2010 Anyone with enough time, could also manually "copy" these in the current version. I assume the maps are compatible, so you just have to remake the org and the scn file. The scn description can also be copied. It's a bit of work but I'm sure it doesn't take more than a day per scenario. RE: JTCS vs. Expansion disk 1. - Big Ivan - 01-30-2010 Thanks Jason and Huib, I may get to work on one or two of these Expansion Disk scenarios to see how it converts in JTCS. I'm assuming the maps would be OK as I haven't seen any map issues when crossing the systems EF;EFII; EFFotR and JTCS.

Depending on the scenario, it might open without issues. Otherwise, it is merely a matter of rebuilding the ORG file, then remaking the scenario file. Of course, there is a method of adjusting the files manually, but is extremely time consuming and has potential to add a lot of errors if done in haste. Jason Petho |
