Where is the mod folder for Blitzkrieg? To use the load mod

[steelwarrior77]

And how to install a mod that is supposed to be installed in Blitzkrieg/Run/data I do not have that folder - thanks a lot!

[Adonaiis]

Blitzkrieg/Run/mods/name_of_your_mod/data/...

And you can create this folder... ;-)

[steelwarrior77]

Is it the same folder from where I can load mods within the Blitzkrieg settings? Because the realims v4 mod does not say that it should get loaded...so maybe only run and data for that mod and others the long way you wrote?
And do I have to create the same folders for the addons or are they all running from Blitzkrieg - sorry kinda confused here

Steamapps/common/blitzkrieg anthology/blitzkrieg/ mods, thats the correct path fo modding the steam version.. You have to create the Mods folder, and after that you can put all of your mods there.
If some mods have an installer, simply install them to a fictive place, for example Program Files/Nival interactive/Blitzkrieg/Run, or if the mod really needs an installed nonsteam blitzkrieg, you can install it to a pirated copy and then copy paste the mod to your steam blitzkriegs mods folder.

Thanks

Ok - still struggeling with the installation - if I put the Achtung Panzer campaign (all .pak files) in the mods folder it says unsupported mod and I cannot select it - if I put the realism v4 mod .pak file there it does not show anything - like no mod in the mod folder....

I think Achtung Panzer is a special thing, and you should put the files to the data folder, instead of mods. After that you will find your new content under new game, campaign. It overwrites the old campaign.

Edit: yeah, correct, it works only from the data folder. Move all Achtung panzer....pak files to your data folder.

Thanks - and the realism v4 .pack - it does not appear in mods at all - it says it should be put to run/data

Realism v4 is not a content mod, it's a balance mod for the game. It adds:

- infantry is better in combat.
- realistic armor values, gun penetration, damage and reloading time.
- new sounds.
- artilery has lower ammo and can't be detected.
- AT and AP mines are better.
- binoculars are more usefull.
- recon units (like armored cars, jeeps and other scout vehicles), scouts and officers have longer LOS than regular soldiers or tanks.
- planes, cars and trucks have armor to make them better in combat.
- changed a little the Japanese tanks and guns to make them a little diverse.
- wrecks stay 10x longer than before.
- entranching takes 10x longer.
- armor for area damage increased to 30 (from 15)

So you don't need to load it via "Load mod", it works hidden and changes the above things while playing any mission.

Yep - but where should I put it so it works hidden - in the description in says run/data - does that work in the Steam version?

I don't know that but easy to check. Put it to your data folder, and play any mission, if the wrecked tanks stay on your screen almost forever, it works.

[steelwarrior77]

OK - I´ll try ;-D

[steelwarrior77]

A gameplay question - somehow my guns do not get deployed in missions - why - I am playing the Allied campaign third mission and already the second time my guns do not get deployed at all - only my tanks - any reason for that?

And how do i know which units are my core units?

[Cpl. Burden R 3294]

What units are deployed depends on the map. Sometimes you don't get your artillery.

Your core units are the ones with rank insignia and individual names
