Then make a copy of the COH Opposing Front shortcut icon. Rename this icon to "AllAllies Mod" (or use whatever name that you like). Right click on this icon and select Property. Then append the "-modname AllAllies" at the end of the Target Line in the shortcut tab. Your target line should look like this:

To uninstall the mod, simply delete the mod folder (AllAllies folder) and mod file (AllAllies.module).

Note that there is no "-dev" parameter. See point 7 below.

correct - there are 3 i's there.

Revision 1.01:

- Remove a reference to single player mission data in the AllAllies.module file.
The following line under [data:common:02] is removed. It appears to cause system crashes when playing for a longer period of time, especially with maps bigger than 2x2.

"archive.05 = WW2\Archives\OFSPData".

Revision 1.02:

- Reinsert the references to non English version of the game in the AllAllies.module file. This should return unit speeches to those who own non-English version of the game. Everything below the section [data:english:02] was deleted when I was troubleshooting the mod. It's a lost in debugging case. If you still don't have speeches, please compare the contents of AllAllies.module file with the Reliccoh.module file in your Coh/Coh OF program folder. Look at the [data:(your language version)] section. The entries there should point to an existing file. Oh and take care NOT to accidentally change the RelicCoh.module file. Best to make a backup copy of the file and put it in a different folder.
