loading maps to eastern front
« on: December 31, 2010, 08:52:54 PM »

I've run into a problem trying to load new maps to my eastern front folder. 

I can get maps into standard coh, but they don't show up when EF is loaded.  The map installer seems to only install to COH folder(I can't find any options), and just pasting into the ef folder doesn't seem to work. Oddly enough, I have a 1v1 duclair that does show up in EF, and I'm wondering if that is because I may have had that already loaded in my coh folder before I ever patched EF onto it. a friend of mine has the same problems with getting duclair to work as I am having with egletons. 

any advice?

You need to enlist them into "eastern_front.module" file, [data:common:01] part of it, or just place them C:\Documents and Settings\[your user name]\my documents\My Games\Company of Heroes\ww2\scenarios (that's for XP)

Best wishes!!!

Paste them on "Documents\My games\Company of Heroes\WW2\Scenarios".

I think that's the path, I'm not at home so i can't confirm it but perhaps someone could do it :).

Seems like I already did.  ???
