Modifying Allowable Division Size

Have followed the read me exactly to modify the 'Events' folder for the 1863 campaign so I could bump the up to 50 and 80 divisions respectively for the South and North. Yet when I start a new 1863 camapign the original allowable division sizes of 30 and 60 are still reflected. Have experienced this with both the 10c and 13c patches. What am I missing?

That's not entirely possible, because the "ACW Updates.rtf" says to look for the "evt_nam_CSA_DivisionFormation" and "evt_nam_USA_DivisionFormation" events, but the "1863 Campaign.sct" contains "evt_nam_CSA_MODDivisionFormationMOD" and "evt_nam_USA_MODDivisionFormationMOD". But these are also the only two events in that script file.

Check if your events look like below, playing attention to the "SetCombiUnits" command lines; these are the only actual changes.


Code: Select all

SelectFaction = $CSA
SelectRegion = $Richmond, VA

SelectFaction = $CSA
SelectRegion = $Richmond, VA
StartEvent = evt_nam_CSA_MODDivisionFormationMOD|1|0|NULL|NULL|$Richmond, VA|NULL

Conditions
  FixedDate = 1863/04/01

Actions
  SetCombiUnits = 0;0;50

EndEvent

SelectFaction = $USA
SelectRegion = $Prince George's, MD

SelectFaction = $USA
SelectRegion = $Prince George's, MD
StartEvent = evt_nam_USA_MODDivisionFormationMOD|1|0|NULL|NULL|$Prince George's, MD|NULL

Conditions
  FixedDate = 1863/04/01

Actions
  SetCombiUnits = 0;0;80

EndEvent

You also have to play a turn before the limits update. It will still say 60/30 on the first turn.
