Scenario Editor and Market Garden (MG)

[LucaP]

With great disappointment I discovered that if you include a MG vehicle in a scenario but you do not own MG,

1) you are allowed to save your work with Scenario Editor without any notice;

2) you cannot play that scenario (it appears dimmed in the battle list);

3) you cannot re-edit that scenario again (a popup windows suggests to buy MG by visiting BF website).

In this way I lost a complex scenario I was working on since many weeks...

The obvious answer is to avoid to include units or vehicles that belong to MG, but I am not so skilled to remember exactly the list while I am working with the editor.

Any suggestion in order to revert to my original scenario?

I have CM:BN + CW + Vehicle Pack (v.311 patched).

Alright, I guess I'll ask the obvious question: If you don't own Market Garden then how were you able to add a Market Garden vehicle to your scenario in the editor in the first place?

Market Garden vehicles are present in the list of the vehicles that you can purchase in the Scenario Editor even if you do not own it...

Yeah that sounds bad. I have logged a defect report. Not sure what can be done with your scenario but I think that if you send it to someone who has the MG module they should be able to remove the unit and allow you to work on the scenario again. PM me with a link to your messed up scenario file and I'll have a go. Also let me know what unit you added - I am not sure I can recognize which units come from MG either.

That does not help with preventing this kind of thing in future.

Thank you ian.leslie

I do not remember, I think it was some sort of allied antiaircraft vehicle. Anyway, no problem for the last scenario, I am glad if I have helped the development team to correct the problem in the future.

That sounds like the AA Tank (Crusader III MkII) to me. I know that they crop up in 1 or 2 of the Road to Nijmegen battles.

Press SPACEBAR while in editor and module dependencies will be shown next to the units.

Great!
