(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!
3b) Ignore the warning of steam for the launcher
4) Do not forget to chose 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 usefull 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" :
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
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 appart.

YO. Thought you guys were gone.
This is mf pog. Thank you!
Thank you!
How do i find unique units (that have been hidden in the mod as easter eggs for nearly a decade) for use in other maps? I can not do world builder. Thanks.
a) Find the secrets combinations of actions to do to unlock them (may take between 5 min up to infinity)
b) Learn coding & modding and then look at the source code (takes about 2-5 years)
c) If a and b fail, you could still PM me (may take more than a year to get an answer if it does not end in the spambox)
I am sorry that i bothered you.
Don't be sorry! These units are too unbalanced to be included in a normal game even with my standards. Searching for them may make it worth it.
I will one day post a picture of the hidden units.
Are the hidden units...
-Baker airborne squad (insane op recoiless rifles and huge respawning squad size with the heal function?
Their 2nd squad smg weilding badasses, more or less a squad of lt. Powels.
The maus near invincible tank that one shot kills everything?
The uberzombie
Hitlerjaged squad or however it's spelt.
There are probs heaps more...
The Baker squad is a hero squad from the airborne tree. Not hidden...
The Maus is from the Propaganda tree. Not a hidden unit too...
The Uberzombie required weird stuff to have so yes it is on the list of Easter eggs.
The Hitlerjugend are in the propaganda tree. Not a hidden unit
Hey, just downloaded NHC2.7e
What is the name of the zombie survival map?
a 2 player map called [NHC] Zombie Survival
Awesome. Thanks. Will give it a shot.
Zombie survival map was really fun! Played as USA. Those airborne commandos are hilarious. Bird bazookas, two uberzombie Gatling guns, boys at rifles and they just keep being given to you as the game progresses. I ended up camping the enemy spawn locations for about half the game. So many dead zombies.
Thanks for all your work. It was great. Great map by Henry too, as usual.
Thanks for the feedback! If you can spawn kill, it means I made it too easy in normal difficulty... Is it better when you try to play in hard or expert?
I will rebalanced it for the next version and update the script for the soviets.
I tried it on hard, but probs shoulda just gone with expert. It wasn't that hard because of airborne commando squad reinforcements. I think i had 6 of these squads by the end of it, + baker squads + lt Powell. The veterancy overall was gained really quick. From nothing to 6 stars in a few kills. I'd probs slow down veterancy and make less free reinforcements to make it harder.
Yes, I plan to limit the these special squads to 3 and double the number of zombies. By the way, you can use that scar script on your maps as long as you put the same markers somewhere.
Sounds good.
Re: using your .scar script. Thanks heaps!
It is pretty much a Stonewall game, but with zombies.
I'd like to make a bunch of Stonewall style maps, but with normal units. And with more than one player. Is it hard to change that kind of stuff? I assume you make every unit spawn in the script, so I'd need to make an 'if statement' depending on the opposition faction. Or just make only one enemy faction for simplicy?
I took a look at your scar code and it was massive!
The script contains all the cases except for the Soviets and Ostheer. I am used to code survival maps in W40K: Dawn of War so for me it is not that hard but if you know nothing about coding it may be hard.
silly question: is it possible to port a Space Marine model into this game? that would be awesome as, say, a 1 time call-in for the axis...with armor stats similar to the tiger, walking speed and weapon of the puma
Technically, yes but it is not easy. I wanted to do that but you need to be able to
1) Extract or make 3D models
2) Convert them to CoH format
3) Animate them
4) Code the rgd
and I am not able to do number 2 and 3 and we do not have any animator left in the team :/
maybe possibly just building one from scratch? idk just tossing ideas around
That's number 1

I've been using panzer elite with different tech trees, built all units but I haven't found where and how to "steal a headquarters" I want to try using the flak bren but it is only producible with "stolen hq"
merci beaucoup
thank you very much
Mod very good
thank you for your work.. LOVE CoH1 and this mod makes it quite fun all over again!!
ab2531 also. i have been hoping that someone will do a mash up of modern combat and far east war to make a VIETNAM version mod for this game..
One of the best mods out there ;)
Hey guys,
This mod not work for me, when I start match, theres no textures..
Strange bug. Can you please give more details? Your CoH version?
Heya. Nice update!
From the zombie test map i found all units exept the Jagdpanzer E-100.
Maybe you can tel us how many infantry units and tanks you have overal hidden in the mod, it could give us a lead as to how many we have discovered and how many not :)
The list of unlockable Easter eggs is:
- US gattling squad
- CW gattling squad
- Axis MAD scientist
- PE special squad
- Oberst Tarlak
- E50
- E75
- E100
- Löwe
- Jagdpanzer E-100
- Schreck the third
- Zombie Ezelschreck

Hi Guys, Love this mod. Just updated from V2.700d. but now when I got to run the game I get this"game is not being run as a known company of heroes product. try again by launching from steam" Any thoughts?
Remove/uninstall any previous version before installing the new version
Thank you so much for your quick reply. I followed the instructions exactly. I have just uninstalled the new version restarted the pc and reinstalled just incase. The same message appears. I can not launch it from steam as steam requires "EXE" files, this startup file is a "BAT" file. Any other thoughts, this is the best game ever!!
The only thing the .bat file do is run the command
RelicCOH.exe -mod NHCToV -dev
It is a simple text file that can be opened with notepad and interpreted as a script by Windows. Maybe you have a weird firewall or antivirus that block bat files.
If 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
This would run the mod. You would have to remove that command for running other mods.
Thank you again for your reply. I did install everything in the correct folders. However, the steam link worked....You are a lifesaver!! By doing this thru steam worked a treat. Thank you so much again. Can't wait to see what else you have in store for the future. Cheers and Good Luck
This looks amazing. I'm trying to launch the mod, but I keep getting a message saying that it cannot verify the media, or that the mod is not a known COE product. Do you know what could be going wrong?
