Merry Christmas and happy new year 2022. NHCmod v2.700g with an updated version of the Combiner for Easter Front (steam version).
For those who have downloaded the file before the 28 December 2021, please download it again. There was a missing dll in the previous installer.
NHCmod ToV version 2.700g
=========================
By AB2531, Dapz, El_Coyoto and his team, Dapz, Majorcamo, Tarlak501
Major Features
Dead corpses stay, artillery range increased, pop cap increased, new units, each side has one hero unit.
Crazy stuff can be deactivated in the reward menu.
(Ce Mod est aussi francophone)
----------------------------------- Installation ----------------------------------
1) Delete any previous version of the NHCmod
2) Execute and follow the instruction of the installer
3) Just Click on the shortcut created on your desktop to play the mod!
4) Do not forget to choose what units you want to activate/deactivate in the reward menu
Advice: It is recommended to defrag your Disk after installation for better performance.
From time to time, it would be useful to clear the folder
C:\Documents and Settings\[USER]\My documents\My Games\Company of Heroes\LogFiles
uninstallation: just click on the uninstaller
If you have the error message "Game is not being run as a known company of heroes product. try again by launching from steam" :
It may be because you have an antivirus that prevent the bat files to run the command "RelicCOH.exe -mod NHCToV -dev".
To go around that, make sure the mod was installed in the right folder, on the launching options from steam,
In library > on the left menu of your game list, right-click on company of heroes > property > general > define launching option you can add the command
-mod NHCToV -dev
or
-mod Combiner_Beta -dev for the combiner
This would run the mod. You would have to remove that command for running other mods.
If the game crashes with a report to Relic before getting to the main menu. It means that there is a conflict with another mod.
The easiest way to solve it is to delete the other mods. The other is to find the .ucs in the folders:
CoH\Locale\English
CoH\Engine\Locale\English
RelicOnline\Locale\English
that is not made by Relic (i.e. by the bad mod) and move it apart.

Hello and thank you for your mod.
I have been playing for years.
I uninstalled and deleted the old version.
I installed the new version but the game will not start. i just get the cmd window flash for a second.
I have no other mods installed and have not installed eastern front or star wars.
i do not use steam.
please help.
thx
If the .bat file does not work, try to launch the mod manually. If you don't use Steam, create a shortcut to RelicCOH.exe and edit the command to
"RelicCOH.exe -mod NHCToV -dev".
Also make sure you have installed the mod in the right folder
Thx, I installed to the same company of heroes folder as always.
i tried nhctov.bat in the program files folder.. same thing.
i created a shortcut for relic.exe and with properties target then added
"C:\Program Files (x86)\THQ\Company of Heroes\RelicCOH.exe" mod NHCToV -dev
it launches vanilla tales of valor.
earlier versions install and run fine.
thx for your help.
There is one "-" missing. It should be
"C:\Program Files (x86)\THQ\Company of Heroes\RelicCOH.exe" -mod NHCToV -dev
OOOOhh... I found the problem. There was a missing file in the installer. I will reupload it. To play, you must edit the file NHCToV.module with a text editor and change the line
DllName = NHCFactionFix
to
DllName = CombinerFactionFix
It will temporarily fix the issue, until I reupload a new version.
Thx.. I tried it with your shortcut target.. the game still won't start.
the desktop shortcut and the nhctov.bat in program files.. same thing.
2.700f installs fine, so I will stick with that for now.
thx again
merry christmas and happy new year.
Thx!
I'll give that a try,,or will wait for new upload.
cheers!
your temp fix worked btw
cheers
I have reuploaded the fixed installer. Those who have downloaded the file before the 28 December 2021, please download it again. Sorry.
Thanks alot, British AI is abit better now although they don't setup all their field Trucks on point frequently. sometime British AI just spam HQ Truck on expert mode re-setup often thus it won't build any units
As for Ostheer, some minor bug like after purchase a mortar from the supply truck or captured ones. unit icon will show as MG Icon.
Ostheer Tiger Ace 205 have no voiceline , it stay slient all the way
Russian F1 function may need to change cause F4 (Russian Tank hall) only choose one of them but for the another one it have no hotkey to fast travel to build unit, i have to manual cam back to base to select unit
I won't fix EF bugs
Report it to eastern front maybe if enough people report//complain theyll fix it eventually.
ab2531, oh okay thanks for the reply, i will avoid playing combiner mod eastern since it quite bugged to begin with.
I don't know why they don't fix it. I have already reported it to them. It is super easy to do so but I am not allowed to do that.
You can try the Star Wars combiner with the older version of EF. I find it more stable.
Hello, got the mod downloaded but it says I didn't do it right when I launch it have it in folder with other mods under COH in D drive so I'm stuck help would be appreciated.
You should put the mod and all the file in your Company of Heroes folder in D: then
I have installed this mod along with EF but when I click on the combiner shortcut and enter the game, there are no EF maps and no EF factions, there are purple flags in skirmish mode when you select a country, nothing more.
Got it working by starting Combiner_old.BAT
How to ...uh use combiner for non steam version? I have the Eastern front mod but idk how to using the combiner
Use the Star Wars Combiner to combine the old moddb EF version
Moddb.com
Author? When i played this mod, my pc just starts to hang/crash. After the hang/crash, my monitor screen turns black and i can't do anything unless when i plug off the power supply... Is there a problem with your mod or my pc???
Probably something seems wrong with your pc
Hi, is there anyway that we can produce 2 Pershing Aces? Can you make it happen?
You should not be able to have more than one at the same time. A Pershing Ace and a Super Pershing is already more than enough. You can always edit the code or make special maps to change that.
HELLO WHICH VERSION OF EF SHOULD I INSTALL?
The steam version
Am having trouble in the F version I installed modern combat mod and now when I open the NHC Mod it doesnt open the base game anymore
Delete the other mod then
What to do if the desktop shortcut created doesnt want to work? how do I make it work? im using steam
on the launching options from steam,
In library > on the left menu of your game list, right-click on company of heroes > property > general > define launching option you can add the command
-mod NHCToV -dev
or
-mod Combiner_Beta -dev for the combiner
Any explanation as to why multiplayer keeps crashing the two Pc`s are up to date hardware and software wise?
I have never tested my mod for multiplayer but some people managed to run it in multiplayer and posted it on YouTube. I can't help :/
this mod has AI changes on all the campaigns? i was playing the red ball express mission and the AI send me a tiger ace
its more funny and harder anyway
An happy accident :p
This version works with CoH 2.602?
The files of the mod work. The launcher (bat file) won't work. You would have to manually launch it yourself or use one of the very old bat file from the pre-steam version
Sorry I missclicked and deleted your comment by mistake. I will check the terror doctrine of the combiner and this will be fixed for the next version.
question here but when will you decide Infantry only (EXTENDED) gamemode? that there will no Mortars Artillery and even Veicheles?
No
just asking here but do you still decide the next update?
It is scheduled for Christmas
Hi, I've noticed that the AI can construct 2 different Kampf Zentrum as Wermacht that gives additional abilities, but I'm not sure how player can construct 2nd Kampf Zentrum that reminds quartermaster building from the American team.
You can't. It is an AI cheats building. The AI is too stupid to call in my new units like the Maus but it can build it. So I made this building so that the AI can build the new units that players can call in .
I have problem that Soviet Make KV1 tanks while im playing infantry only gamemode
Thanks for reporting. Every time I fix that kind of bug, a new EF patch appears to break it.
Hi, I love your wonderful work.
I wonder if the following can be reflected in the next update.
1. In NHC mode, cannon can fire at an improved range, but in combine mode, there is a button, but the cannon's range is the same as that of ordinary range.I hope to use the cannon's improved range skill also in combine mode.
2. Can't select a German terror doctrine in combine mode. I can't see two ace Tiggers, King Tiger and Mouse sweeping the battlefield.
3. It seems that there is some error of AI or little intelligence in comb mode. Armored unit is not move from there base or troops do not move. That happen both side friends and enemies. I know Algorithm of AI is very difficult issue, but I mention it just in case.
Thanks for reporting
Hi i love your mod
But i got question to ask
While i give guns for my infantry unit by using supply truck unit
When some unit died while welding MP44 guns can be dropped easier
WHile the thompson i give for Paratroopers don't drop more easier
By default in the game, all weapons that can be picked up are droppable except the MP40 and Thomson SMG.
Hi I need a help.
My EF and NHC mod works well, but when I execute combiner.bat, program executes but Soviet and osteer become purple '$19010000 no range'
My EF is by steam and properly downloaded in Company of Heroes folder.
and I also checked RelicCoH.module/NHCToV.module/FactionFix.dll/Eastern_Front.module
exist in same directory.
What wrong with me sir? Do you have any solution for me?
Thx for reading my long ticket.
EF has been updated. The combiner is currently not working for the latest version of EF.
Omg, that's the reason. I appreciate.
I hope new NHC EF combiner come soon. thx
