Im not a computer person and need to know what to do in order to play a mod after I download and extract all the files? thanks.

go to where you downloaded the file - it is zipped - usually, normal zip can open it and is included in windows xp or vista, so you can just double click and the file will open. If not, it may need a program to do it.

Then copy the contents - which should be a folder and a file both with the name of the campaign. select both - click, hold shift key, click the other one, then use ctrl-c or select edit menu: copy.

then past it (ctrl-v) or edit menu: paste to the following folder:

this is default install - yours will be different if you installed it somewhere else:

c:\program files\battlefront\SC2 - whichever version the game mod is made for\campaigns

paste it in there - you will see the other campaigns there too the game comes with

then when you run the game, the new one will be available when you pick your game

I extracted the files the copy and pasted them into the SC2 folder, its still not showing up in the "new games" folder. what am i doing wrong?

bontemps,

Let me ask you a question so I can narrow down the issue(s).

Is the file you downloaded WinZip?

Robert

[Nupremal]

did you put it in the \campaigns sub-folder?

[carverrt]

Yes, it is in the campaigns sub-folder.

Just use the extrtact command. This will place all the files and folders in the correct spots.

So, copy/download into the campaigns sub-folder, right clicks on the winzip fike and select "Extract All."

Let me know if this works....

What campaign are you downloading?

Robert

[bontemps]

yes it is in winzip, I downloaded Nupremal world campaign and 1939 world historical.

I extracted then copied into the appropriate folders, I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but I just dont know what it is. I'll try again and let you know. Thanks.

[carverrt]

Great.

Once you extract the files, they rearrange themselves into the configuration that they were aggregated.

Once you unzip you’ll see a new ‘Campaign’ folder.

Take the folder labeled ‘_1941-42 Battle for Moscow’ and the file labeled

‘1941-42 Battle for Moscow.cgn’ and move them to your Campaign folder.

So, you unzip and the extract gives you a new Campaign folder, inside it is a folder and a file, just move those two items into your WaW Battlefront\ Strategic Command 2 Weapons and Warfare Expansion\ Campaigns folder.

Let me know how that works.

Hi, I also downloaded the file for the new campaign and extracted it into my campaign folder. The 1939 historical is in the folder with all the other folders. I started the game and it didnt show up on the list for campaigns,

thanks

[Hubert Cater]

Huhr, there are two items required the 1939 historical folder as well as the campaign file. Are both of these in the 'Campaigns' folder?

Also, can you be sure that they are the correct mods for your version of SC2? For example there are modded versions I believe for the WaW expansion as well as the PDE expansion.

Niko,

There are campaigns on CMMODS for all of the different versions of SC2, i.e. Blitzkrieg, PDE, WaW and you simply need to make sure you are downloading the right campaigns for your particular version, otherwise they may not show up on the list of campaigns.

Hope this helps,

Hubert
