Matrix CS Question with Blitz Expansion Pack

Tiger 88 · 12-02-2007, 10:44 PM,

I was wondering if anyone out there has copied in the expansion pack scenarios into the new matrix edition? If you did - what files do you copy? I was thinking that one could just bring in the map, scenario, oob and jpeg files - but I did just one and now I get file error when opening the scenario....I did not want to copy in other files for fear of screwing the pooch....thanks much!

Hi Steve,

The first game I copied was the EF scenario ANOTHER LOST VICTORY. I copied all the files & pasted them into JTCS EF folder.

It worked. Which scenario did you try & I will see if I can it to work on my machine.

Good luck.

Hi Jack - I picked off the very 1st one....not sure if I need the weapon and platoon files, etc?

Do you still have the Talonsoft versions installed? If so, make sure that the scenario works with TS using the same procedure that you followed.

Steve,
Give me the name and I will try it.
Thanks. Jack

You can install the the scenario files:

scenario.bmp
scenario.org
scenario.map
scenario.scn

Do not install anything else!!! Especially the platoon or other oob files.

Keep in mind I am redoing/revising the Odessa related scenarios and will include them in an update (1.04?) for the Matrix CS.

Steve,
Sometimes you have to open the map file in the editor and then use the "save as" option and save the file as itself.I ran into this a couple of times and this cured the problem.Didn't have anything to do with the OOB and never use the save as option on any OOB as it will no longer function for the scenario.

Jason and Earl - I opened up both the map and scenario editors, did the save as trick - but still get the file error message, upon opening the CSM East Front - when loading the scenario.

Any other guesses as to what I could do?

Thanks for you help by the way!
