PanzerBlitz situations
Hello All,
I've run all out of battles to play and I saw a few ideas about using other games...so I cracked out my ancient PanzerBlitz and thought it would like to meet BA2.
The editor is so much easier to use now, so I've set up some pretty basic battles using the old PB Situations.
=======================================
SITUATIONS 1-4
=======================================
MULTIPLAYER - Situations 1-4
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/81220844/BA2_PB.LST
* Updated : Aug 27th 2015 to version a2 *
Situations 2 & 3 get an overhaul on terrain and objectives. Number signs dropped in titles of Situations to avoid BA2 script issues.
If you've downloaded the earlier versions, make sure to remove them before getting the new one (in Mac under My Games -> BA2 -> Multiplayer -> delete the folder BA2_PB_MP)

Re: PanzerBlitz situations
After some playtesting with Real (thank you very much!) these need some fixes to really make them playable.
Interesting to note; PB offers a _lot_ of mortars and little infantry...makes for an odd mix. So I may deviate from what their forces listed to make these more playable.

Re: PanzerBlitz situations
Thank you sir! Hope you enjoy!
I've tinkered a bit with the forces now so they're not so wildly out of balance and hope it will make for a better MP experience.
Be sure to delete any old versions and grab the latest above.

Re: PanzerBlitz situations
Trying to create a challenge...keep getting "Invalid parameter passed" and the challenge does not show up? Tried all 4 scenarios?

Re: PanzerBlitz situations
Hmmm...that's not good news. Not sure why that would be happening...I am a little rusty though. I wonder why?

Re: PanzerBlitz situations
Well that is odd? Not sure what I can do different to change that, I'm working strictly on the editor (no custom scripting).
I'm going to release another versions shortly (Situations 2 & 3 need better balance...PB has odd force mixes I've discovered)...so maybe I can see if there is something that is causing the problem.

Re: PanzerBlitz situations
Updated Situations #2 & #3 and am not sure if I've fixed anything else to do with the multiplayer posting...so please try again Morge4 and let me know if it is still giving you grief.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Re: PanzerBlitz situations
That's a really good idea. I think that BA and BA2 are really a lot closer to Panzerblitz that Squad Leader in many ways. I'd like to take a crack at that sometime. I'm still playing with Squad Leader mods though right now. One question: is there a way to increase the vehicle count for AFV's, so they represent platoons more nicely that single vehicles? That would be a good thing for doing Panzerblitz, IMHO. That is, to do it in such a way that they would fit in the space allowed.

Re: PanzerBlitz situations
Nope, still can't create a challenge.
Can you zip up the files for me and send them to me? Strange thing is when I download through the game, it shows as 00.0MB in size. Other downloads show an actual files size, like 21.3MB

Re: PanzerBlitz situations
I'm using a straight one to one conversion from the units in Panzer Blitz to BA2, though I am aware that the units in PB are actually meant to represent platoon strength units.makigono1 wrote:That's a really good idea.

Re: PanzerBlitz situations
Hi Guys
File download Ok to My Games multiplayer folder, but I was getting same error as Morge4 when creating a challenge - However if you delete the "#"'s from Text1.TXT file i.e. Situation #1, #2 ,#3, #4 and save it - it now works ok for me.
I seem to remember way back Pip saying not to use "#". but can't remember why, maybe be it something to do with programmimg

Re: PanzerBlitz situations
Single Player Russian and German are now available. Still learning the new editor so some bugs worked out from the Single Player Russian campaign.
I'll likely revisit the Multiplayer version now that I am more comfortable with the Editor.
Feedback on any bugs, or suggestions is always appreciated.
Thanks to Morge4 and Real for helping with the playtesting!
