Dutchman1997 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) I'm new to downloading modes for CM:FB and CM:BS. I just assumed that all you gotta do is download and move files to a new folder that has all of CM:FB. I don't know what all I have to do. Would really appreciate some help.

MikeyD Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 What are they mods of? Buildings, signs and other items have tagged 'regions' so the default art will not appear in [france], [germany] or [holland] tagged regions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchman1997 Posted January 21, 2017 Author Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) The mods are a sound mod for CM:FB along with a a few campaigns, same goes for CM:BS Edited January 21, 2017 by Dutchman1997 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holman Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 You've got to put them in the right place. For CMFB that will be (assuming you're on a PC) "C:[...]\Documents\Battlefront\Combat Mission\Final Blitzkrieg\User Data\Mods". Campaigns are not mods. They'll go in "C:[...]\Documents\Battlefront\Combat Mission\Black Sea\Game Files\Campaigns". Single scenarios will go in ""C:[...]\Documents\Battlefront\Combat Mission\Black Sea\Game Files\Scenarios". For CMBS it will be "C:[...]\Documents\Battlefront\Combat Mission\Black Sea\User Data\Mods". And of course you have to unzip them before CM can see them. All recent CM games follow this pattern *except* for CMBN. Its files follow a similar pattern but inside the main game installation folder rather than Documents. Mods are in "C:[wherever you installed the game itself]\Battlefront\Combat Mission Battle for Normandy\Data\Z". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does one unzip them? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warts 'n' all Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Use a program such as "7-zip" or "bitser". They are plenty of such to choose from, just do a search along the lines of "unzipping folders". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
