i hAve a problem with this campaign, its not anything technical its just TOO EASY even on hard its very VERY easy, is there anyway to improve difficulty and make the game harder

Play a few battles and the enemy resistance will become more tougher. Also, in the later versions the enemy do act a bit more clever (although not much, since neither of us are AI-programmers, nor do we have access to the game code). These later versions are still under beta testing, so I can´t say when they will be released.

im sure im probley asking a stupid question :confused: but how do you go onto the second level of the campain iv set up the campain selected my troops for the first level did the thing where you decide where to start off then pushed done and started the level but after i finish the the mission push continue and save the game dosent atimaticly minimize (im unsure if its supposed to) so i ctrl alt delete out the game or alt tab but there isnt a screen to sellect troops for next operation the only options are start new campain edit map edit operations or quit nothing saying select troops or any thing iv tried restarting the level but it just restarts the level and iv tried several other things but none of them have worked :( so if some one has an answer to a step im missing or something im not doing please reply. :-)

Please follow the instructions in this "step-by-step guide" that I wrote several months ago. In your case, since you´ve got the main stuff to work, I think that you can start reading from #3 in the guide.

And you have installed all the three extra programs that is needed (Visual #J, XNA and NET)?

If you have done the above, and it still doesn´t work, then please read the "step-by-step" instruction that I´ve provided in this message and see if that helps you.

1) The first thing you need to do, is to download Visual #J, .NET and .XNA. These are all available for download at Microsofts homepage for free.

(Link to .NET file --- http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
Windows 64-bit users use this link instead --- http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en )

(Link to XNA --- http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en )

(Link to Visual #J --- http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
Windows 64-bit users use this link instead --- http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en )

These 3 files is a "must have" to get the mod to work.

2) Create a "mods" folder in your Men of War folder. Unpack the Campaign archive and then drag and drop the folder named "Campaign" into your Mods folder.

3) Go to your profile folder for men of war and create a new folder named "Result". ( The result should look like this ---> Documents/My Games/Men of War/Profile/Your Profile Name/Save/Result)

4) Start the file named Campaign.exe. If you have done it correct so far, a window will appear with some options. At the option "Save Folder" you enter the correct path to your earlier created "Result" folder (on my PC with Swedish settings the path look like this ---> C:\Users\Zeke Wolff\Documents\My Games\men of war\profiles\Zeke Wolff\save\result. The "Zeke Wolff" should of course be replaced with your own profile name.

5) Click on done and in the next window, click on Quit (This step can be skipped, but it will save you from having to re-write the save path if the next step goes wrong).

6) Start up the campaign.exe again. Click on settings and then click on "Extract All Maps". Wait until it says "Done". Click on the button named "Done".

7) Click on "Start a new Campaign". Chose your Player Nation (German, USSR, UK, USA). Chose your theatre of War (which ones is available depends on which nation you picked. USSR for example cant pick North Afrika etc). Then chose which enemy nation you want to fight against (Germany can pick any enemy nation, USSR, US and UK can only pick Germany).

8.) Click on Start a New Campaign. A new window will appear. Here you buy your units. You can only start the campaign with 3 units, but you can capture enemy units and keep them for as long as you want. When you have bought your units, click "Done".

9) If everything has been done correctly so far, a new window will appear with images of different minimaps. Depending on which nation you picked to fight as, different colored rectangles appears on some of them (named 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc). If you play as USSR, the red rectangles depicts your unit and some allied units (your unit is always named 1st and has the word "PLAYER" written under it). If you want to attack the enemy, move these rectangles to any nearby enemy held minimap (the ones held by USSR has a USSR flag over them, and the ones held by the Germans (the enemy in this case) as a German flag over them). When you have made your decisions, click "Done".

10) A new window will appear. Here you places your troops on the actual map, ie where each one will start. You can only place them within the blue colored rectangle. When you are happy with your decisions, click "Done". You will now hear a "Tada!!" sound and the main Dynamic Campaign Generator (DCG) window will appear. Do not close this window down. It must be kept running as long as you play the mod.

11) Start up Men of War. Go to Mods and activate "Campaign". Then click on Single Player and then Select Mission and then... Dynamic Campaign Generator. Chose which difficulty you want to play on (I recommend to play on Hard since the AI is too easy to defeat otherwise). Then click on Dynamic Campaign Generator Mission. The mission will start to load and then after a while it will be ready to be played. Click space or just click the left mouse button to start the battle. You will see your units, and a very short mission debriefing. In the upper right corner of the screen, click on "Continue".

12) Play the battle.

13) When you have won (or decided that you better have to retreat), save the battle as Result. If you use any other name to save, only your current game progress will be saved. Only when it is saved as Result will the mod engine understand that the battle is really over.

14) After saving the game as Result, just click anywhere on the screen, and you will automatically be taken back to the DCG buy/sell window. Now you can sell (disband) any captured units etc.

15) To play the next battle, do the above all over again, ie hit done, pick map to fight on, place your units etc. After clicking Done after placing your units, you will automatically be taken back to the game Men of War. Go to Options and chose "Restart". This process will start the next battle.

16) Continue the above process as long as you wish.

17) When you have managed to capture the enemy base map (marked with a black and white circle (just like your own base map)), you´ve won a whole operation and will be rewarded by being able to command an extra unit (ie 4 units after the first won operation up to a maximum of 7 units).

If you want to play with the extra addons for DCG (Map Pack, Unit Pack and Infantry Pack) all you need to do is to drag and drop these extra addons into the mods folder and let them overwrite anything they ask to overwrite). Maps, new vehicles, and new infantry units will then be available randomly.

By doing what I´ve described, DCG should work... if it still doesnt, then there is some other error. Please make sure in that case that you do not have more than one copy of MoW installed and also please post a screenshot of your DCG settings (the paths) --- faulty paths happens to be the cause of an error in more than 90% of the cases.

Ps.
There is a new version available, DCG v2.3 which can be downloaded from ModDB ---> http://www.moddb.com/mods/dynamic-ca...-generator-dcg

Hi Zeke...
im a newbie here
i have this problem do you know what is the fault?...

i alrdy have netframe 2.0 as i play TOW as well so i jst install Visual J & XNA.
my patch is 1.11.3,DCG v2.3
all requirements i have followed as order but seems got this problm..
can u help me?.... :(
sory for my bad eng....

Did you install everything in the correct order (ie campaign, map pack, vehicle pack and finally, infantry pack)?

Did you click on the button "Extract all maps"?

Did you make sure that the paths is the correct ones (cause it seems to me that the game cant find some of the files (2nd screenshot)). The DCG_environment file is created by DCG and thus, that file does NOT exist until you´ve succesfully started a game in DCG, so don´t waste any time looking for it).

If you follow the 17-step-by-step guide I wrote above your posting, everything should work as it is supposed to do. But please check your paths, it is crucial that they are correctly entered.

My own paths look like this for example:

Men of War C:\Program files\505games\1C\Men of War\
DCG Mod Folder C:\Program files\505games\1C\Men of War\mods\Campaign
Save Folder C:\Users\Zeke Wolff\Documents\my games\men of war\profiles\zeke wolff\save\result

Ps.
Don´t worry about your English, it was perfectly understandable what you meant and I´m not a native English speaking dude either... :)

yes i did extract all maps...
well i think i reinstall again all 4 package... mayb i miss out something....
will try again...
thks 4ur advice Zeke... :D

after installing patch 1.11.3 and try to start MoW i get this:
MoW.exe
this application has failed to start because d3dx9_38.dll was not found
what to do now?:confused:

How about installing the missing d3dx9_38.dll file? It´s a part of the DirectX9 package which can be downloaded for free at Microsofts homepage (or if you goggle the file d3dx9_38.dll, you will find several other downloading locations for it, but I do recommend that you use the Microsoft homepage).

This question would have been better asked in the Technical... part of the forums as well...

~Zeke.
