[MOW:Vietnam]New missions

[Man o' war]

Hey Men Of Peace!

I was wondering now that i have the editor working if I can give you some ideas, maps, etc.

Of course, I will understand if you don't want me to do that.

(I'm also using the singleplayer MOW:V maps, but I will try to create a few of my own, and I will gladly accept all of your ideas and try to get them to work if you don't have the time and/or don't want to make 'em )

[Men Of Peace]

Update :

The second mission is up .

In the second mission you play on the US side , assisting and leading
assault on a village ,and dealing with other sort of nasty surprises .

If you always wondered if it's a good idea to use a flamethrower as
a weapon in the jungle ,play this mission and find out !
hope you enjoy .

here's the download link for the new version :

or

here's the read me :

1. Extract inside MOW:Vietnam main folder .
(or drag the mods folder to MOW:Vietnam main folder .)

2.open C:\Documents and setting\%USERNAME%\My Documents\My Games\men of war:vietnam \profiles\player
backup and move the options.set file to other folder,and then replace it with the options.set
file that came in the zip .

3.open MOW:V go to select campaign and start playing.


If you all ready installed previous version of this mod,
repeat step one and confirm overwrite previous files in the mod folder.

man o war ,glad to hear that you found the answers and it works for you,
feel free to send me ideas but dont get offend if i dont use them .
you probably found that by now but you press space on direct control
to take off , i think you should definitely make some missions/maps of
your own and release them ,variety is a good thing ,you have experience
with the gem editor ? you made missions in the past ?

I did everything twice to make sure including deleting the old mod folder first, but I am still seeing the same mission " Smell of Napalm" that you did last time. Can you double check that the old mission isnt inside your new rar file? I'm pretty sure I did everything properly. Looking forward to playing it!

hello force10 , Smell of napalm is the name of the campaign, click it and you
should be able to see the old mission (final stand) and below it the new
mission (killing fields) .

[Force10]

Final Stand was the only mission listed after clicking on the campaign. I hope it's not a deal where you have to complete the first mission for the second one to show up because that first mission is rough! I did get it to show up by deleting the first mission in the resource folder and renaming the folder like the first mission. I guess we will see if others have any issues getting it to show up. Thanks!

I know that it showed up for some others so I'm guessing it's exactly the deal
"where you have to complete the first mission for the second one to show up",
of course you can go around it like you did, or the more conventional way by
editing the game_progress.set .

Completed the first mission. Good game, just the helicopter is difficult to be controled.

Don't worry, I won't get offended cause I'm not very good with the editor; I mean I know the basics and the triggering (not all the triggering but the basics ) and waypoints, zones, etc.

I did make a few missions, but I only played them in the editor as I didn't know how to put them in the game... (those missions are now gone as I had to reinstall the game and I didn't keep my saves)

About the helicopter: I know how to take off, but there are a few problems with the editor: the helicopter flies like an airplane (it doesn't take off vertically) and you can't land it (eg. I'm flying it in direct control, press space and it just appears on the ground in a blink and it won't stop moving. If i cancel direct control, it just moves in circles very fast...)

The 2nd problem is that the special soldiers (John Merril, Carl Dillan, etc.) have no names in the bottom left corner of the screen; it's just their picture and it doesn't write "John Merril" or some other guy...

The 3rd problem is that all soldiers have no breed; It says: desc/human/singleplayer/etc...

I think I'm gonna need your help with the editor once again...

Also, I started making a new map, I'm still working on it but when it's done i'll get a few pics here...

Sorry for the long reply but I was out of town for a while...

Ok but now i have a new problem. After the village battle something odd happens: men who patrol the base and those wounded stand up and don't move also if attacked. I'm looking for the trigger error.
