Wow, congrats Don. I set some pretty severe traps in the CV series and figured most mortal beings would flounder big time. Even OUR Sarge bitched at me for making some of them too difficult, but I held my ground, Sarge persevered and the traps became part of the CV adventure. :evil: :)

I agree that you made some fantastic traps. It took some psychology and more than a little bit of logic to decipher some of them.

Is this still a thing?

I'm a bit curious as I'm nearing completion on the Gettysburg scenarios, so I figure if it is, I might as well do this.

Also, how does it work, if at all, with the expansions and map packs in the 150th Edition? I can't seem to locate custhighscore.dat.

Yep - it's an ongoing challenge:) I need to check what files are required from the 150th edition, but Gettysburg is probably included in the HighScores.dat - hold that thought.

I checked with the other guys on the team - the files you need will be "Highscore.Dat for the scenarios, AddOnHighScore.dat for the map packs, and CustHighScore.dat for custom scenarios."

So you won't need the custom high scores file.

Good luck with it!

Cheers!

The cavalry scenarios are kicking my butt so I may arrive at the objective late. :)

A follow up question if I may. I don't really feel it's worth starting a new thread over and seeing as it's related to scoring I figured this might be a good spot in any case.

In the Three Times Not a Charm scenario I can't figure something out. It says in the description that 8000 points are needed for a major victory but in the high score list it says you need 10000 points for a promotion.

Is the promotion the determinant for the getting the stars in this case or is it the major victory at 8000?
