@Jugjock: You're welcome! :lol:

I originally designed the Scenario Generator for the MP games I play. Often it was very uncertain to know how much players are playing, so a given scenario might not fit. So 1) I wanted an easy way of adding more units to a scenario. 2) Players often had preferences like "only infantry", or "a small division with artillery", so the Generator allows to choose the unit types. And 3) I wanted to set the starting positions of the armies on the map. The use of 25 sectors is not perfect, but it allows to wage war on parts of the excellent existing maps you would miss out if you only use the stock sandbox deployments.

I get some errors trying to use the scenario generator.

I have the Road to Wagram and the KSN...Large mods (respectively first and second in my mod list).

These are the errors I get:

12:00:00 Graphic not found GFX_ARTY_FLAG
12:00:00 Flag not found while loading unit: 8-livres #1|FR_HORSE_ART_GUNLIMBERED_1

sometimes:

12:00:00 Graphic not found GFX_ARTY_FLAG
12:00:00 Flag not found while loading unit: 6-libbre #1|FR_ART_GUNLIMBERED_1

any thoughts?

It looks as if you do not have the latest KS Napoleon mod. It is currently version 1.705. You can find it here: KS Napoleon Mod 1.705 The links are in the 1st post.

Thanks! I found that I had to log into the KS forum for the download links to be clickable. That took me a while to find out!

There have been quite a few users having trouble downloading from Norbsoft's server in recent weeks, me included. NSD are aware of the problem but can't replicate it though the sheer number of site members having difficulty seems to point to a server problem.

All I can suggest is keep trying, perhaps at different times of the day.
HITS & Couriers - a different and realistic way to play SoW MP.

I've uploaded it to my MediaFire account for you:

http://www.mediafire.com/download/956av ... ATOR_^^.7z

Unzip it into your scenarios folder (found in work folder).

In there, there is a Word document which will give you excellent instructions.

This really is an great tool for putting together scenarios.

Thanks again to Leffe7
