Make couple of tests and everything seems to be in order so here the download: http://www.stonyroad.de/forum/downlo...do=file&id=188


Here how to install:

Ok remember we do not need to overwrite and HSR works and worked always as moddir. Just copy paste the extracted folder replacing armageddon vanilla folder for our armageddon folder included in the rar file. Nothing will be overwritten but the in game credit file which is the only thing that does not work in moddir.

Then if you open the vanilla armageddon file you will find the HSR 2.11 ARM folder in it. That means everything is right. Ok until there the first step. Now as second important step you need to be able to initiate HSR . To do that you need to make a shortcut of the hoi exe file on your desktop (please a short cut not a copy paste of the exe file on the desktop). After that you need to define the target of the exe shortcut, which is what the not so experienced people usually do not know and Tjaja was always doing with the installer. You need to define the path of the new shortcut on your desktop. To do that is very simple really. You right click on the hoi2 shortcut you just created and go to properties. you will find upon opening it the target definition (which is actually the path to find and initiate the programme) obviously will vary according to personal folders and OS but is similar to this:

Vista shortcut target
"C:\Users\Documents\My Games\paradox interactive\Armageddon\Hoi2.exe"

XP shortcut target
"C:\program files\paradox interactive\Armageddon\Hoi2.exe"


Now you need to modify the path so that the shortcut finds the hsr folder:

Vista modified shortcut target
"C:\Users\Documents\My Games\paradox interactive\Armageddon\Hoi2.exe" hsr_2.11 arm

XP modified shortcut target
"C:\program files\paradox interactive\Armageddon\Hoi2.exe" hsr_2.11 arm

As you can see you only need to add the name of the folder of the new hsr version. In our case now you just include hsr 2.11 arm on the end of the target and thats it. very very simple really. Then it will run hoi but from the hsr folder instead of the armageddon one. No need to overwrite anything and you can have this way as many mods as you like or even play vanilla hoi when you start the game from the respective exe shortcuts.

what folders are there?
In most cases one means the parent/root directory of the game with the Armageddon folder, so this can be the "doomsday folder" or "hoi2 folder" depending on your version

That beta two sounds sexy. I'll have to download it.

[GeneralDisarray]

For some reason, my install didn't get the special Stony Road desktop icon and loadscreen. Are those in there? If not, where could I get them?

[bestmajor]

well ther is no load screen afaik. if there was in earlier versions you'll have to dl those maybe?

[GeneralDisarray]

Humm, it was in the first HSR install I had, but I have no idea which version that was...
Maybe Aregorn knows?
What about the icon, though, it's usually there...

[robertglaub]

Any word on when you are going to update to the latest beta???

Was created by Tjaja for the installer, so 2.08DD will have it. Now you are manually installing HSR so the icon will not be there unless you put it there.

Sorry no time for testing the new beta yet but I did not see any breakthrough for HSR there anyway.

The only issue I encountered so far is a message featuring an "unknown string wanted" which (it's simply an educated guess) probably has to do with:


- Added new messages for spy missions against the player (from the Beta 1.3 (2) changelog)

[Niome]

I downloaded this and followed the instructions fine, but I continue getting an error running the game between 3-11 days.

I thought it was the Rhineland at first, than I tried SU happened there, and I just don't know.

What does the error say?

[rcole3438]

hmm, I've tried everything listed above, but every time i try to load it, i get the Armageddon 1.3b on the load screen with ARM 2.11 underneath it, but when i go to the main menu, there are no scenarios. I know i'm not doing something right, any idea on what it is?

Thanx in advance for any help!

[Armia Rezerwa]

You probably had a corupt download.

Try again, in the scenario folder of HSR (if installed correctly) will only have ONE scenario (that being the current GrandCampaign (1936))
