New Steam version issues Thread - NHC Mod for Company of Heroes

Recently I've downloaded the NHC mod under the new Steam version of CoH because I only play this mod with friends and the new Steam version is the only one with online now. However whenever I go to customize a skirmish I can no longer mix allies with axis and when I launch a game everything on the map is invisible.

I can't even get the mod nhc to play, how can you do that ? I just play skirmish, have 300 maps, 8 mods, nhc my favorite, but all that seems lost now,UGH ,HULK MAD.

I had the same issues but have got it working. Make sure your maps are in the "relaunch" version of the same and when the game starts if you want to play with your friends, you now need to host a multiplayer rather than skirmish. Password protect the room and then only your friends can join. Have just been playing and all good.

So you managed to play online with my old version of NHCmod?

Any status update on this mod for the Steam version compatability? Can you speak to whether there is a plan to update the combiner for the Eastern Front mod?

Thanks!

From what I can tell the mod works fine for skirmish and campaign. Multiplayer is bugged so that I can't see any games whatsoever even when filters are off, but other than that I havent had any problems with the mod itself in skirmish.

I play just skirmish , this is my favorite mod NHC but the A.I. seems not to be working very well now. I can play expert like it was on regular. any ideas on what might be happening ??? I'm on steam playing skirmish.

I am planning to work on a new version with combiner for the next 2 weeks. I am finally on holiday.

probably no one is reading this. I installed nhc christmas version into program files 86 steam steammaps and so on. i can start the game but when i play skirmish only stock (vanilla) version comes up. ALL THE NHC STUFF IS MISSING:(:(:(:(:(

The path should be something like C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Company of Heroes Relaunch
The .bat file can be used to launch the mod.

I recently installed the Steam version and one of the first things I noticed is that changes made in Customize Army/Rewards only persist for that session, so you have to reset them every time you start the game. Kind of a pain, but this happens with the unmodded game too. I'm guessing those settings were stored on the old servers. Figured it out quick in the first skirmish I played after restarting the game when all my favorite customizations weren't there! Not sure if there's a workaround for that.

One NHC issue I've found is with the 205 Tiger Ace. When HE rounds become available, it always shows the AP icon, implying that I'm using HE rounds. However it's clearly firing AP, and clicking it doesn't appear to toggle between AP and HE, though you hear the commander order the switch to AP. The toggle and icon graphic work properly in the Tiger Ace campaign in the unmodded game. Also noticed that the secret lab appears as a light blue box, so somewhere the graphics didn't load properly.

Continues to be my favorite mod!

Hum, that is strange. It seems that the files got corrupted. Have you tried to reinstall it?

I have the same problem....Re-installed steam game and NHC mod and still no joy. Any other ideas please?

UPDATE:It seems to be a random bug. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Just been testing on the Tiger Campaign and 2 out of 4 loads it has worked. Hope V2.7 will not have this bug

No, maybe fully uninstall the mod manually first by deleteing the folder NHCToV in your Company of Heroes folder and then reinstall the latest version?

I have downloaded the mob (NHCmod_v2.700b) and skirmish now doesn't work, it says 'relic servers are down'. Surely I don't need the relic server on 1 player skirmish?I'd appreciate some assistance, killing me not being able to play...Ta

Your issue does not seems to be related to my mod.
If you are on steam, you need install and use the version Company of Heroes New Steam version. To play skirmish you must be connected to steam. Playing CoH off-line is no more possible in the latest version. That's stupid but my mod is not responsible for that.
