Current scenario: Operation Egypt: El Alamein At HQ i upgraded two recons into HQ units and bought attachments. The player also gets 3 free para units and after few turns a battleship by trigger. The enemy army was no match for my core units and victory would have been possible in turn 13 or 14 alr...

I play for fun, so the settings are as simple as possible. First I got to 59 campaign scenarios with the old e-file. After the update, I started over with a new e-file, but the history was not updated and it turned out to be the 60th campaign scenario. It happens when the campaign is under construc...

Weltkrieg Company. Of course, I downloaded the latest e-file from dropbox. Wow nice! I am happy to see that you made it all the way to New York :cool The next scenario after New York is still missing as well as the following scenarios. The campaign is still under construction and New York is the la...

Hello! There was a problem at the end of the "New York, New York" scenario. The game does not find the next scenario and crashes. I don't know how to attach a screenshot here. Sorry for the text I write through google translate Welcome to the forum ward70 :howdy Which campaign are you playing? Do y...

Is there a consensus on how to proceed?

It has always been like this in the efile because i think Panzers (and other vehicles) crossing rivers everywhere is unrealistic. Even the small and shallow river where i live is impassible in most places because of the steep riverbanks imo. A general has to choose his units wisely and there are sev...

Hello everyone

Just want to let you know that i will have only little time in the next one to two months.
I'll try to read everything and answer asap

What about one of the paratrooper mortars? They cannot fly and jump like the Brandenburger. So I would have to drop them first and then position the Brandenburger near to the enemies units. Looks even more complicated for planning than it is already for me. But perhaps I should try!? :grumpy I see ...

What about one of the paratrooper mortars?

Thank you Grzegorz for such extensive and detailed test :yes So, If I understand it properly, the best solution is the one I used to do: 1. Get the .pgn and convert it to 256 colors if 24 or 32 bpp 2. Run the set of tools to further optimize its size 3. Use my standard script to create JPF images (...

The solution for me was to turn weather animations off in the user interface settings.

I had a simmilar problem on my old laptop. It was impossible to run the weather animations for rain and snow while playing because the laptop was overheating.
The dimensions of the pictures for rain and snow are very big, so i guess it was related to them

How do you want to proceed?
Should i send you the png file only and you process it with your program?
Then you can upload the jpg you created to mapfinder and dismiss the png.

I don't know which is the best option, but surely we can save space when we dismiss the png files.

I always save the jpg files in photoshop using "save for web" with 50% quality :dunno Maybe the different progams recognize the quality differently? I don't know. But i guess we don't need to upload the png to mapfinder to save space. (I will always play with png because it is better quality and png...

Looks like I made a real mistake praising the usefulness of this Wunderwaffe in my input from Dec'21. :lol Probably so :lol I am sorry that i have scared you ;) I always think that it is too hard, playing with a small core. But it just a different playing style :cool (Btw, i have not played Atomic ...

Mikaela Shiffrin is the GOAT.

I understand, thanks

When CCs were played 'on time' when were originally issued, with participation of many JP Panzers community members, then on CC Forum was usually created one separate thread to report players' progress status for running CC. All participants answered to that thread starting CC, and then edited thei...

Good point !!!, honestly I do not remember which solution we did for last king-size map :huh Of course I can send by email to you, so you can upload it to .pl repo, but if anyone remember what we did for previous one, it would be nice to follow the rule (if any) :shock Csaba added the XXL map pictu...

Great you keep all the reports. It's been almost 18 and a half years! Btw was there no list of played scenarios in the PG2 AAR?

Ich denke auch, dass ein Ende mit Schrecken besser wäre, als ein Schrecken ohne Ende

So here is the plan: Additionally to the maps i want to create for a grand allied campaign (and which i mentioned in my efile thread), there are some other 3K maps that i want to finish or create out of enlarged old maps of mine. One map, Taganrog and Rostov, was halfway done and i finaly want to fi...

Current scenario: Operation Egypt: Sollum At HQ i upgraded 3 towed AT guns. I chose the Marder because it is a little faster than most of the SPAT units. The rest of the prestige i put into attachments for the tanks. OpenGen 0.93.5.0 * 16 Jul 2022 * AI version: 2.00 (2014) Efile folder: D:\Games\Op...

Hmmm okay. Ist ja dann fast schon ein Jahr her seit dem letzten Szenario, wenn du irgendwann in ein paar Monaten weitermachst. Dann müsstest du doch die ganze Kampagne nochmal von Anfang an spielen weil du völlig raus bist. Und z.B die "Forward, Comrade" hast du ja auch nie wieder gespielt.

Hello

I need to book more numbers

1585 - 1590 please.

I always was under the impression that one side can only have 400 units max?

Na, wie sieht's aus? Hast du noch Pläne die Kampagne zu Ende zu bauen? Oder eher nicht so?

Current scenario: Tobruk under Attack Buying is limited to 3 units and i took the opportunity to buy 3 units because in the upcomming scenarios is is not possible to buy new units. I bought a recon, SPAT and bomber. The player also gets a free fighter and bomber. Fighting took place almost everywhe...

I have problems in this scenario (13 Gergovia) of Caesar Campaign I have reach the objetive VH in Gergovia on time for a victory (brilliant victory must be imposible¡¡¡) but the game didnt end at the moment i conquer the VH If i continue playing the result is a loss because i "diddnt take all the V...

A bit frustrating when you have to see the British take half of the VHs in the first moves while you cannot organize resistance. Was it really frustrating? The scenario is build like this. The Spanish auxiliary forces are overwhelmed by the enemy invasion army and the player's core army comes to re...

No, i don't plan to do summer - winter conversions. I just think that a converted winter map does not look as good as a regular winter map. There will be always something lost. Be it quality or graphics. I just think it can't be done. Also, winter maps play not a important role for me. It is nice to...

Hello

A new map is finished. I'll submit the jpg file only because the png has more than 6mb. If somebody needs the png for map making, please let me know.

Please do as you like, it is your map

In your e-file - custom = snow?

No, i don't use the custom terrain.

Maybe the forests could be a bit darker. What do you think?
Once thing why summer/winter conversions are tricky, in this case the swamps and rough arctic terrain is lost.

If everything is layered --> the work itself needs more time to decide - what setting to choose (several settings seem good) --> then decide whether a little more contrast, color, etc. Since there are no exactly the same maps --> converting each one, it's decisions again (despite using the same pro...

It is not my wish. It was just a question if you tried it. If not, it is also ok.
Maybe Alberich can tell you what he needs for his campaign. And maybe this talk can be relocated into the maps thread

It looks good for a conversion. Did you try grey roads like in the other winter maps?

:howdy Thank you very much I'll start work Of course 100MB is a lot --> you can upload only the layers you need --> forest, cities, roads, railway (map 1065) For me, the Internet was a big obstacle (I had a portable LTE) - now I signed a contract from March for 400/40Mb fiber Ok great! Maybe you as...

If you decide to share these layers with me as separate png or jpg files - I will be grateful - it will show your maps in winter version --> if you would like to see your other maps as winter - you can do that too --> I just need to develop a new one procedure for Gimp Of course, as you wish I just...

I meant, if in the time i work on the campaigns new (3K) maps by other map makers are released, i am happy to use them and integrate into the campaigns. Maybe it was just a bad joke because i know nobody is working on 3K maps :lol For example i made many maps of areas that i finde interesting, that ...

Okay - if I were to help you make these maps --> what would you expect? I wrote "help" because I see that some of these maps have already been made/improved in the 2K version That's why I see it this way --> You prepare the basics --> you define the area, drawing/map which will be the source/basis ...

Changed my plans again and dismissed the Charleston scenario, while Harpers Ferry will be added again. I can finish the Harpers Ferry much faster and made already some good progress today

Campaign path in the first post will be updated. Harpers Ferry and Petersburg will also switch places

I don't take any responsability for events and occurrences that happen at such prestige levels

(The AI might buy a plane every now and then when it has enough prestige, because planes are the units that it can deploy)

Good luck and have fun

Current scenario: Battle of the Gulf of Sidra At HQ i sold many attachments. Then i bought a tank, artillery, fighter and a bomber. I also upgraded a lot of units. Got a nice [C] leader on an artillery and one of my Wespe self-propelled artilleries took the leader trigger. OpenGen 0.93.5.0 * 16 Jul...

So today or tomorrow it will be, I invite you. Unfortunately, this will probably be my last campaign description for a very, very long time. Why will this be your last report in a long time? PS. Truppenluftschutzkraftwagen - a rather long name :D Hehe yes, we can have very long words in german. I c...

Indeed a question of personal tactics style. What works for me is having 1 better 2 far reaching guns in reach of the target, find an appropriate place to land the Brandenburger FO near AD and/or another valuable target, then eliminate the AD and let the airforce do the rest on now uncovered units....

Just for fun :lol For those who are at Discord. You can use the Midjourney AI to create pictures. Just google it and join the channel. In few years an AI can create all missing icons :lol The AI is pretty good, but most pictures look like videogame artwork. I gave some prompts for pixel tanks and as...
