DC Kreigsmarine mod problem

Buddahaid · 04-27-09, 12:01 AM

I've made multiple installs of Destroyer Command (a la Pacific Aces/SH2 method) successfully up to 1.1patch and PM1.03. One is DC, the second is Sealords, and the third is another Sealords for modding to Kreigsmarine. DC and Sealords work great, but Kreigsmarine gives Janus errors when entering sim. I'm not certain I'm installing the mod correctly, as the files are from Beltze, and the translations are as poor as my Spanish language skills. Anyone got this right and can talk me in?

Kriegsmarine is its own standalone Mod and shouldn't be written over SeaLords

Installation should be

DC
Patch 1.1
Kriegsmarine.

I see no resaon why it shouldn't work with PM but it was never actually tested with it.

The other thing is it will be buggy ... but not so buggy that you can't load a game.

Thanks Horsa, I'll try that next. Beltza's site says to install in this order:
1. DC
2. Patch1.1
3. PMDC1.03
4. Vicker's mods etc.
5. Sealords
6. Mod Beltza of Realism
7. Pack units
8. Mission Pack
9. Beltza's Bismark (optional)
10. Other files
11. Patch1.1 and 1.2

Follow the Kreigsmarine link from this site to see what I mean. Maybe the files are packaged differently? http://www.navalsim.com/

Here's the instrucciones de instalacion. http://www.navalsim.com/km/instal.html

Well, I did another mod using a copy of the DC install and it ran on it's own. Then I installed Kreigsmarine as intructed, omitting Sealords, and it still crashes with janus errors when entering sim. Oh well, I'll maybe mess with it later.

Ah .. looks like Beltza made some changes and has his own installation sequence.

Thanks for checking Horsa I know you are very busy with the MA now. I thought things may have changed from your first reply.
