[OBS] Finnmark Mod - Saltfjellet - Beta - Promods 2.63+64 / ETS2 1.46

[AndyTapster]

There's no release candidate prepared at this moment, since I am approximately 12740km away from my desktop atm (some people call it vacation)

Your best bet would be to try and edit the manifest file and see if that works...

I just tried it, it removes place names from large parts of Norway and Sweden (similar to what happened with an earlier PM release)

So we have to be patient, enjoy your vacation

just check changelog for promods, compare and see have there been anything done in this addons area... or try it...check gamelog ... be a daredevil

PM 2.63 had changes to Alta, Bidjovagge, Karasjok, Kautokeino, Storslett, Tromsø, which are all from Finnmark originally

[some-thing]

You might have luck with commenting/removing the cities that have been implemented to PM from the Finnmark city definition file...

[AndyTapster]

I gave that a try, no change. I might have missed something though. I'll try again when I have more time (Probably on 32nd November, the way it is with my spare time)

EDIT:
My first post was written in Norwegian, sorry about that

I have successfully managed to get it working again with 2.63 and 1.46.
As stated above, the manifest must be edited to match version 1.46, and the list of cites have to be changed too.
I loaded promods without this mod first and took a picture of the map, and loaded the city file and commented out all the cities I found on that picture.
Now it seems to work fine.
I have teleported to Setermoen which is outside the Promods area, and the map seems okay to me.

Hope this helps. Enjoy your vacation some-thing =)

@kotelett, I completely failed in modifying the mod. Would you share a little more detail of what files you edited/removed?

Thanks

[Kotelett]

Sure @AndyTapster ....

manifest.sii :

Change the version requirement line to this:

Code: Select all

compatible_versions[]: "1.46.*" # Add a # to the start of this line in order to remove the version restrictions in the mod manager. This might cause potential crashes or unplayable games if used with a non-compatible game version. Do this at your own risk ;)
	

dev/city.varanger.sii:

Code: Select all

SiiNunit
{
# For modders: Please do not modify this file if you want to add a new entry. Create in
# this directory a new file "<base_name>.<idofyourmod>.sui" where <base_name> is name of
# base file without the extension (e.g. "city" for "/def/city.sui") and <idofyourmod> is
# some string which is unlikely to conflict with other mod.
#
# Warning: Even if the units are specified in more than one source file, they share the
# same namespace so suffixes or prefixes should be used to avoid conflicts.

Now Norway (E6) is almost complete

[AndyTapster]

Sure @AndyTapster ....

Thanks! I'd made the appropriate changes, what I hadn't done was make sure the basemod I was modiftying was the correct version! Somehow I'd used the "one older" version that exhibited the problem anyway

There's also "Project E6 Map" which partially builds on the lower part of E6, hoping this can still be compatible in the future.
