B Coy 11th MEU Campaign Fitting on to transports.

[Aukel]

Hi,

In the campaign B Coy 11th MEU, the first scenario is a pick your method of ingress, either Helos or LCACs.

Which ever I pick I can't fit the Marine Company onto the transports, I am always one unit over, which drowns.

I can't work out how to mod the campaign to add another LCAC or helo and I can't work out if I can split an element (like the mortars) into smaller groups to spread them between the transports (I can't actually see this is possible, but there is a join split crews back up button, so I went searching for a split crews up button and couldn't find it).

When I look at CampaignHack, I can select the campaign, but when I try to unpack the scenarios it tells me it can't find them so I can't edit the scenario.

I have the game installed on a different drive to C: it is on A:\Shrapnel Games\...

Any assistance in editing the scenario or splitting the unit, or just confirming that the units will fit (and how!?) would be appreciated.

I would like to be able to fix this myself so am looking for info on to fix it rather than a here's an edit file fix. That way I'll learn and not keep asking annoying questions.

For some reason the carry capacity if the LCACs in this campaign have been set to x40 vice the x50 they are suppose to be (in the OOB). Ans due to this change you are correct the units will not fit into the provided transport.

P.S.
There's no way to split units in WinSPMBT, and splinting crews off from weapons/vehicles is pointless EXCEPT for para/helo drop situations.

I will look into this

Try this..extract to your MBT campaign folder.....all should fit now BUT it may also need the OOB's that will be issued in the next patch and that's only a week away ( maybe)

The one that's there now is verB....I missed a couple of helos the first time around

Works like a charm.

Thanks for the quick resolve.

Fixing that revealed a bug that had been lurking in MBT for an unknown length of time.....map text was not displaying properly, not the same as spww2...Andy tracked it down to two lines of code that had been changed in WW2 sometime in the past, but not to MBT......now fixed
