View Full Version : Scenario conversion
Is there a tutorial somehwhere for converting scenarios to ACOW. On RD there's a Hong Kong scen that hasn't been converted yet. I had a family member with the Winnipeg Grenadiers there so I'd really like to add this one to my game

The first thing you need to do is find out which other version of TOAW it uses. Let's say it is TOAW 1. First, make sure you have TOAW 1 patched to its final patch...that would 1.07 in this example. Then open the scenario with TOAW 1's editor and save the file under a different name. Now open this new .sce file with COW and save it again. The final product will be playable with COW 1.04.
I have run into trouble when saving the .sce file with the original version of TOAW. Sometimes once you save it, the file it creates is really small in size. Just delete the screwed up .sce and save it again. Always works the second time.

Thanx Menschenfresser.
I didn't get my copy of TOAW 1 yet but I followed your directions and converted three TOAW 2 scens that I haven't found on any sites. Atlantic Fury V 1.1, Invasion Russia, and Sino-Un War. They all worked good, I'll try vers one when it comes and I get it patched up.
