Hy guys,

maybe a few of you already know, that you can play the Unfinished Business campaign with 1.13 and most of the UB-Mods (Vietnam, Shady Jobs, ...) with the latest features of 1.13. There are more than 40 UB mods that have been ported to work with 1.13.

Here I will give you a step-by-step instructions to get Unfinished Business and the additional UB-Mods running.

1.) Install JA2

2.) Get the latest GameDir files from SVN. You can use the tool "TortoiseSVN" to get those files. Just connect to the following URL and download all the files in a temporary folder.
https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2_v1.13_data/GameDir

3.) After downloading copy/paste the files in your JA2 installation directory and overwrite any existing files. The download from the SVN GameDir already included the 1.13 "Unfinished Business" campaign. Just be sure to have the folder "Data-UB" in your JA2 installation directory.

4.) All the UB-Mods are additional and optional downloads. You can also get them from SVN. Download in a temporary folder. Here is the url:
https://ja2svn.mooo.com/source/ja2/branches/Wanne/UB_113_Addons

5.) Once the download is finished, copy the MODs you want to play from the "Data-UB\AddOns" folder in your JA2 installation directory "Data-UB\AddOns" folder. Once that is done, you also have to copy the profiles from the "Profiles\UserProfile_UnfinishedBusiness\Addons" to your JA2 installation directory "Profiles\UserProfile_UnfinishedBusiness\Addons" folder.

6.) Now you are ready to go. Just start the "INI Editor" (INI Editor.exe inside your JA2 installation directory)
a.) Select the UB Mod you want to play from the "Select JA2 v1.13 MOD" Drop Down List
b.) Select the correct executable (plain 1.13 or 1.13 UB, or you can even select the proper Map Editor executable file if you want to start the map editor) from the "Start Executable File" Drop Down List
c.) Click "Start" and the game (or the map editor) will start

7.) Most of those mods only work with "Old Inventory and Old Attachment system". So if you start a new game, you should NOT change this option in the "Initial Game Settings". Just use the default preselected option for "Inventory / Attachment". See the screenshot below:

Now a few screenshots from different UB 1.13 Mods. Have fun.
