Smolensk XP1 and XP2 - GerryM - 07-20-2013 Hello All: When you add these packs to your Smolensk folder do they change the OOB for the original scenarios or do they just do this for the XP scenarios. Also thought I saw a reference to some art work included. Again that would not change things for the original scenarios? Thanks, Gerry RE: Smolensk XP1 and XP2 - Compass Rose - 07-21-2013 If I was a betting man I would bet that the new art units are new additions to the game and using the new OOB's would not affect the other scenarios. I would be very careful though and make sure to either use JSGME or backup all original files before loading up these extra packs, just in case.

I am 99% sure that the XP1 pack just adds additional scenarios with no other changes. I just looked at the XP2 pack and that has additional scenarios, revised OOB (the main change being German company level units) and revised art work, i believe that the art work in XP2 will overwrite some of the original art. RE: Smolensk XP1 and XP2 - GerryM - 07-21-2013 Thanks for digging deep; I know it's the oldest title. Any idea if XP2 changes the OOB for the original scenarios. On another note I am using JSGME but did not realize I could use it for XP1 and XP2 types of things (they are .exe files I think). I thought it only worked with mods. Thanks again, Gerry RE: Smolensk XP1 and XP2 - Ricky B - 07-21-2013 XP2 does not alter the stock scenarios in any way, including the OOB - it has its own OOB, map and pdt files for use with its scenarios. The art with it is optional and as Foul stated will overwrite original or VM art - there is a download for just the scenario related files, no art, for those that don't want to use the art that comes with it. Rick RE: Smolensk XP1 and XP2 - GerryM - 07-21-2013 That's very helpful. I will find the XP2 w/o the art work then and I can always add mods later. Gerry RE: Smolensk XP1 and XP2 - Mr Grumpy - 07-21-2013 Here is the page you need http://members.shaw.ca/gcsaunders/smolensk_bp2.html the download links are at the foot of the page and as Rick said there is a seperate link for XP2 without the art work. RE: Smolensk XP1 and XP2 - GerryM - 07-21-2013 Thanks. Gerry RE: Smolensk XP1 and XP2 - Liebchen - 07-26-2013 All XP2 scenarios have XP2 in their titles. Figures, don't it? :-) |
