Steel Fury 1942 (New Mod Versions and Forum)

[-budd-]

I reinstalled the game and went through the process again, no luck, same thing all the way around. I have a question about the patch file download, why is there 2 patch files in the download with different dates, does it matter which one you use? Is one for the shell and the other for the starter? just wonder why there are 2 of the same files with different dates in the patch download. I also tried all the other resolution that work for my computer, nothing it always just drops me to desktop and when i check process manager after it drops me to desktop there no process for Kharkov running.

This selection screen comes up when i start the game


Ok i pause the timer and select english, no luck, select default, no luck this screen comes every time i pick any other language but russian.

Remove the box by:
Deleting/renaming this file:
...Steel Fury - Kharkov 1942\root\default.engcfg

Disable all mods and try to play a default mission.

Make sure that the the STA folder you place into the MOD folder does not contain the same folder within it. This can be because of the way you extracted it. The folder should be "STA1.x" Inside it should be several other folders and files. The same applies to the GMP mission files.

Also check that the "Shell" and "Starter" files have not been deleted. If they have then you can use the backups in the same directories. They are called:
shell.exe.Backup (C:\xxx\Steel Fury - Kharkov 1942\bin\rel)
starter.exe.Backup (C:\Games\Steel Fury - Kharkov 1942)

To use them just rename them and remove the ".Backup"

I am sorry you are having issues. I have installed this on several systems and no issues. Maybe I'm explaining it incorrectly.

Let me know how you get on.

Well dont know if it was renaming that file or what but it all seems to be working now ;D thx for all your help Asid. Just tell me one thing, how do you drive these damn things ;) i cant get past the driving tutorial once the tank stops it wont move again, the gas shows on the meter but no RPM's show on the meter once i stop, tell me theres a good youtube video for tank driving for dummies. thanks again

Hi Budd

Glad you got it working  :)

The driver can have an automatic or manual gearbox. See the drivers controls. Game options > Control settings. Then pick "Driver from the RHS list.

There is a lot to STA. It might look simple but it has depth  O0

Will do, had a hard time with SABOW though. I just want to be the tank commander or the gunner, someone else can drive, hopefully.

SABOWs controls are spaztacular. Theres so many videos where i lose control and start swearing.
