KS MOD questions

It will be great to see you.

I have been reading through the SDK Editor manual to check what might be new - it would be helpful by the way if changes were marked.

It reminded me of a question i have about the KS mod - my understanding is that you cannot have a modified munitions file in multi-player but surely KS Mod does have both because that is what changes artillery ranges so how does that work?

A modified munitions.csv is fine in MP.

Artillery ranges are modified in artillery.csv as well.

Section 2.3.5 of the editor manual says you cannot have munitions.csv file in multiplayer.

That's incorrect. The KS Mod includes one.

We've been playing MP games with it four times a week for 18 months.

With the release of the new SDK we've begun editing some maps. Our group often ports Gettysburg maps over to SoW:WL to play MP games on but of course the American fences and buildings look out of place. We've begun to edit the maps to remove the American themed items (fences, buildings, vegetation) and replace them with more suitable European versions.

Here's the east Cavalry Field map reworked to look Spanish (or Portuguese).

This will be released with the next version of the KS Mod but PLAYERS WILL NEED TO OWN GETTYSBURG TO PLAY THIS MAP since it is only available if you buy SoW:Gettysburg. For GB owners instructions of how to copy GB maps over will be included in the next mod release.

Other maps we are reworking are community (free) maps and won't have this restriction.

Well done. This is a move in the right direction.
