CoH - Modern Combat! "Patch 1.014" (April 17th 2013)

[jalle4554]

also happens for me

[Darkbladecr]

install process overwrites LuaExtCore.dll and lua-io.dll and I'd like to know if this will affect the vanilla game or any other mods?

Those are universal .dll used for the lua library, unless your mods use a custom one, which is highly unlikely then no it shouldn't cause a problem, likewise if you are really worried don't overwrite and it should work fine.

in the launcher appear me this: "there is an error in XML document (1, 2)."

This is because our site is down and it can't read news or check for patches

[[]inveigle[]]

"there is an error in XML document (1, 2)."

Same issue here. I am going to update my .NET Framework and see if that helps. I will post my results.

This is because our site is down and it can't read news or check for patches

So everything should be working once the site comes back online. Thank you for the information.

I just played a skirmish on Dragon Valley 1v1. I have to say that overall it is a glorious experience. For an initial release it is quite stable and plays well even on max settings. I was worried about the AI but it actually felt as if I was playing against a real person. I used the "Air Superiority" doctrine and loved it. the blackhawk squad drop is sublime. I did have a little problem with getting the Apache to work but I believe this to be an error on my end as I did not employ "Designate target" before using it. I want to thank you for this amazing mod. I look forward to the updates you have instore for us. Until then I will be fighting my heart out, Hooah!

its missing a file

[Darkbladecr]

its missing a file

What is missing a file?

[jalle4554]

you mod

[OnkelSam]

@Jalle
The xml file is located on our server. Once the server is back up, all xml related problems will be solved

[jalle4554]

[paradamed]

Im having no problems playing the mod. Maybe you guys had a wrong install or maybe lacking a coh patch. Thanks for this release guys. The mod rocks!

[Finalizer]

Just playing against AI so far, but it's still been a blast. That said, I'm mighty scared thinking of all the poor 3v3/4v4 Ami folks who will never see the end of "Hack Attack... Hack Attack... Hack Attack..."

[jalle4554]

reinstalling it all no help

------------------------

same fatal ai error

[chimie]

Getting same problem as Jalle it seems, fatal ai scar error when trying to multiplay.

[Destraex]

[OnkelSam]

people hammered refresh before we were able to release. Now the server host wants to talk to our global admin before they unlock it again.....

[bangalor44]

Just dled and played a little.very good job guys I encountered no problems.

[DrCh]

Error! Error! Error! bad
where uninstal???

[DMz]

Excellant stuff guys, like it a lot, though the strykers with continual engine damage get on my nerves, im assuming they were coded and animated based on the old puma anims, which had the same problem ?, that said i can tolerate it . First time in ages expert cpus gave me a challange, may even try it against people who knows lol .

[Savage Noble]

Question for you guys, are you planning on recording new dialogue for the US Army and possibly the Chinese aswell? Just some little things like "Sherman" dialogue in some of the armour.

[Halftrack]

great work guys, refreshing setting, tons of astonishing work and not many bugs. AI is quite good as well. Love the sniper model.
had a few NoKeys in the german version. personally I find the US inf a bit weak.

A small letddown are the chinese speaking english. hoped you guys would have done it like EF with the russian voices. If ther IS a chinese speech version.

[OnkelSam]

unfortunately there is no chinese version =( otherwise we would have done it. But you know, recording 15k new voice files is a bit much to ask

[Halftrack]

Ah, ok, I was suspecting that. The mod is much too polished to miss a point like that.
Alway thought that there is a chinese version, as ( if I recall right ) CoHO was released in China or sth like that.

Fantastic job you did with the maps, btw.

[Jaffar]

Looks like your site is down - overwhelmed perhaps - its says its been suspended.

Anyway I got this error when starting the launcher: http://screencast.com/t/wzocoK2mop1q

The game still starts so not sure if its just the news feed that's broke or if it was trying to check for an update.

[Niftyeye]

@Gernsback: I had that as well, but the game still started up for me.

I must say Chaps, very, very well done, both sides feel very unique, Iv yet to see an Abrams in action but the Apache is freaking boss

[Savage Noble]

The Abrams is the undisputed master of armoured warfare. I am not sure how a ZTZ fairs 1 on 1 but T-59s and T-96s don't stand a chance.

[[]inveigle[]]

Just played another skirmish on Semois in the rain. Amazing animations. I was pushed back to my base mid game and deployed javelin's(sp?) and set them up, they own all. Then when I had the resources I called out the Abrams "Tusk". It led the way as I pulled all my infantry from my base to follow and win with glory. I do have an issue with my engineers queuing orders up (you know, when you hold down shift and click on various items for them to repair and then build)? They seem to get sidetracked at times and just stop.

[Darkbladecr]

Alway thought that there is a chinese version, as ( if I recall right ) CoHO was released in China or sth like that.

I checked the coding there is no chinese version, at least never compatible with vCoH also couldn't download the chinese version of CoHO because I couldn't understand the instructions. We could always put it in a foreign language that is compatible, like french, however we do not know which files link to custom unit names and then again, people playing the game that are french would think its bad, it is just best to leave it neutral

[chosen40k]

Dling now!

Hmmmm for the Chinese voices, why not just use voices from other games like C&C Generals? Or are there legal issues with that?

[srhim]

Scar Error?
How to fix this problem? Please somebody....

[paradamed]

A nice screenie

Agree. As a Chinese, I should say many games' "Chinese voice" are very strange, not a normal Chinese speaks like that. When BF2 was on sale on steam, I intended to buy a copy, but after watching the trailer, watching the other gameplay videos, I saved my money. I have a copy of RTT "The Day After", I love the modern-combat Blitzkrieg, but the Chinese voice……very awful.

[Squab66]

as for additional factions could it work in the reward menu by e.g swapping green berets call in for royal marines commandos call in

[DMz]

Crist guys lol its only just been released, play it a bit before you ask for more units lol.

Again i love this mod, puts a totally new feel to coh, its just brilliant.

[solh7]

Installed and re-installed twice coz after installing nothing has changes the game is as it is World War 2. Coh/Opposing fronts version 2.300 ( non-steam). Windows 7. Also ran into the regular (1, 2) xml error.

[Darkbladecr]

Coh/Opposing fronts version 2.300 ( non-steam), Cracked.

You need the real game for this to work as it uses the most latest version 2.602

[solh7]

so even if i update it to 2.602 and managed to get it working, the mod won't work?

[OnkelSam]

First of all, thank you all for you patience! Despite running into problems with our website and subsequently our original game launcher (which is depending on our website) you already have downloaded the mod more than 6000 times in 12 hours.

The overwhelming interest in our mod and consequently the refreshing of our homepage while we were still working on the release lead our server host to the impression that he was the target of a DOS attack! We hope to get in contact with them soon to get our service back up.

Once our website and forum is available again we will be able to give extended support for all of you who still have problems. Just visit our technical support forum and provide us with the requested information. We'll also immediately start working on an easier to install version than the manual installer that is currently available, once our developer forums are available again. Until then our communication is limited!

[Destraex]

congrats on an excellent mod!!! outstanding!

[Darkbladecr]

Try running the game with admin rights if you get a scar error

[Jagdpanther]

My first crash report (the important part as a snippet): :\

SIM -- Attempting to query bag not associated with this group type.
Group is of type 8.  Query is for type 1.  Group name: 'sbps\races\amer\soldiers\amer_riflemen_squad'

[Destraex]

Just played coop with a mate on normal. The AI seems to get a lot of perks. Every 5 seconds we were getting hack attacked. When we changed sides we realised how much it must have been costing them.
What a challenge. Good fun. Mine froze and then crashed on the second game we did though.

help!!!

----------

now it works

how can i get the Cheatmod work? (fixed)

[TheVole]

Great mod!

@Jalle: just place the scar files from the cheat-mod folder in the data/scar folder of the mod. It works fine, used the cheat mod on a custom map last night with no flaws.

[seb4771]

First impression :

+ Good idea of this mod
+ Models is good
+ textures is good but needed more detailled units
+ Maps is good
+ No crash for me

- just 2 army
- no building reinforcement or Health restoration
- no most upgrade (armor upgrade missing for tank)
- no defensive opération (MG building)
- more tank needed

[TheVole]

there is health restoration for both sides:
-China at the Hq (If I am right)
US at the barracks.
-There are MG's for both sides, and the TOW for the US on top of the MG.

not the cheatmod.scar
its already there.

[OnkelSam]

For steam users who run into the problem of non working "Start" buttons in the launcher, community member Mr.Shotgun brought this to our attention:

Ok I figured out the problem of the start button not working.
It seems that installing "Tales of Valor" from Steam messes up some files of the original COH.

I bought it all from Steam and to fix this you must "verify integrity of game cache...". of the original COH.
You can find this by right-clicking COH in Steam, Properties (bottom of list), Local Files, Verify Integrity of Game Cache.

I hope this helps some people out.

[Jaffar]

I suspect there might have been some other issue/corruption for Mr. Shotgun during his install. I bought everything from Steam as well (on two accounts/pc's) and mine both work fine.

[Zupadupadude]

I have COH on steam as well and i don't have any problems.
