I still don't recommend using that Zip, it might be hopelessly outdated. You should use the SVN link instead. It works, I just installed it a few days ago.

The xmls are provided by the 1.13 install. I tested it on a clean installation and it seems to be working. Of course you might get CTDs later on with strategic movement or some other things. Bear in mind that the map sectors are somewhat different and it doens't correspond 100% to the 1.13 installation.

Nah. There hasn't been anything going towards WF in a long time. Even Smeagol's stuff is nearly a year old IIRC.

As said it could (probably is) very well be problematic in SP. it *should* work for MP though. If i knew what I had to put in the rar (and im guessing its just all the files listed in the svn) I could make it work though

Again thats all i wanted though.. WF maps that work in MP Razz

I have a completely different install for SP

If somebody specifically wants SP WF maps i could try to get it to work

I play the "STOMP + HAM3.5 + AIM + WF" version

I really like the stomp changes but sadly they arnt compatible with the newer versions.. but.. i have some big problems with the pricing of mercs in that version and the way the stomp skills were handed out (Victoria having throwing instead of technical skills???, Grace that expensive??)

So ill prob end up editing the mercs to my own liking Razz

Im guessing there isnt a MERC editor thats compatible with stomp eh? Editing the XML will be a pain Sad

I guess i could write one but im prob not going to heh.

also id actually like to play the same version in MP but its doesn't have MP 1.5 which equals no grenades and more bugs.. *sigh* Razz

I guess this is off topic though ^^

If anybody is specifically looking for a single player version of the rar/zip then i will prob make one. Just PM me or post here

Does it use the XMLs? I think it might use the PROF.DAT. In any case there should be an INI switch to make the EXE use the PROF.DAT.

I created the rar off of my version of wildfire (which is the one i listed above with stomp etc)

So my first version contained all the associated XML's.. Of course that lead to problems with starting merc equipment (possibly because of AIM?). Id get the (what i am guessing is) placeholder graphic: "NADA"

So in short: No. It doesnt contain the xml's. Its (almost) guaranteed that my rar wont work in any single player. So again if anybody needs it ill upload a working version.

edit: ph wait are you referring to the version im using? ^^
It seems to use the XML's yes

So is prof.DAT vanillas way of handling all the data? Im aware that the XML's are a product of community externalization

This one is a more or less official standalone wf map version. Used it for a long time with different mods and it never caused any problems.

Well... This is the most singularly schizophrenic "guide" to using a mod that I've ever seen. Would it be possible for someone to lay out, clearly and lucidly, how one is supposed to go about using the WF maps (and ONLY the maps) with an install of 1.13 v3356 while still using HAM features?

See, that makes sense. Thank you!

Now, will dumping the maps into the Map folder cover things like SAM site coverage, the strategic map, HAM facilities, Militia roaming, and all that?

As far as I know you need the following folders
Interface
Maps
NPCData
RadarMaps
TableData
tilesets

these folders may have subfolders. The zip I provided has all that you just need to paste those folders into your data1.13 folder.

THEN, if you want a truly WF experience you need to download Mapupdate 20090909 from smeagols sky drive, and paste it ontop as well. You might want to throw in the AIM mod as well. All of it just copy pasted into data1.13 overwriting everything.

It cannot get any easier than this I don't think.

And lastly, none of these contain any updated facility files, you can get them from smeagols sky drive as well.

Okay, that's easy enough.

Unfortunately, it's been downloaded more than 10 times, and isn't available anymore.

I most emphatically DO NOT WANT AIM. I'm quite happy with NIV and HAM, thanks. I'm just tired of humping up and down the same old Arulco over and over, seeing as I'm a compulsive new game starter.

He needs all the folders. Maps, radarmaps and tilesets is logical. That's the graphics and map layout. But also NPCData is needed because it contains the updates waypoints for the NPCs. He will run in bugs if he doesn't use the WF ones (I know because I did in the past Very Happy

). Tabledata is needed for definition of garrisons, city sectors etc.

Just copy all the folders from the "map only" download. The only files that he could leave out are the inis if he puts the maps in the "Data-1.13" folder and the "MercStartingGear.xml".

Did all of the above, but there was some weird vfs stuff going on. I think I was just trying to cram 15 pounds of crap into a 10 pound sack. Doing over with a clean install, we'll see how it goes.

nOps is not compatible to 1.13 - you either screwed it or yo are in the wrong subforums

Jinxed, thank you very much for uploading that!

I tried goc_mans single click installer. But even the "maps-only" version automatically installs a lot of mods which I am not prepared to use yet ( http://www.ja-galaxy-forum.com/board/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=240116#Post240116 ). It also introduced gameplay changes ( like very advanced starting equipment, increased enemies, etc) But I was looking only for the new maps. I did not want changes to gameplay, difficulty or starting equipment!!

It seems your upload is exactly what I was looking for, thanks again! Just to make that I use it correctly. Since I assume it should work with any newer version of 1.13 I extracted the contents of your file over built 3049 ( Jagged Alliance 2/Data-1.13 ). I omitted the ini file in your zip for it would probably change my settings.

I started a new game and it worked indeed. Hopefully I did everything right.

there are items placed in the map which are from the aim-mod - as those items do not exist in 1.13 you get a 'nada' instead (otherwise the game would crash) - you can either throw those away or 'sell them to the local mob' for $1 each). if you don't want to do that you have to install smeagol's AIM (which is an equipment mod)

So I tried it, I installed Jinxed's WF map only pack and the latest AIM on top of it and now JA will crash at startup. I also tried a different version of WF map only mod in which mercs didn't have any starting equipment any more, not very encouraging either.

It's a shame but I think until someone makes a complete release that does not have cross references to other mods (which have more references and so on) and writes a proper readme it may be only be useable by the 100 people or so that read every thread and tried every mod.

As far as I could see the maps were fun though, so I can play a bit round without installing AIM and see if I can live with the missing item references.

At least I would not risk starting a real playthrough until that has been done.

IF JA2 crashes on you, there must be a reason to it. Was it an assertion failure, or simply a CTD?

Check if there's a file called game_exeptions.log or INIT_ErrorMessages.log in your profile folder (/Profiles/UserProfile_JA2113). If you find one, check what it's saying.
Above all else, fire up INI Editor and check you've got correct executable and JA2Options.ini selected. Some CTDs can result from wrong entries there.

If all that fails (the game still CTDs on you), report the bug here on the boards. Maybe some help can be whistled up.

I would dig up the logfile but I already deleted the Jagged Alliance folder and replaced it with a backup.

Also I am sure it was not an assertion failure but a access violation.

thanks for the tip though.
