Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor Message Board  

i need help with the installition of the rc realism please help me

have you tryed placing the modded files in the CoH directory, and running the game with the target bo as( post mine as example)

"C:\Program Files\THQ\Company of Heroes\RelicCOH.exe"

change to "C:\Program Files\THQ\Company of Heroes\RelicCOH.exe" *mod name*

(not inc stars) - used to work on CoH, dont know if it still does

Just to clarify, that example is for XP.
Essentially its the same procedure on Vista with a slight variation.

For Vista(64-bit):
Change the shortcut's target from this: (everything between the " * " )

* "C:\Program Files (x86)\THQ\Company of Heroes\RelicCOH.exe" *

to this:

* "C:\Program Files (x86)\THQ\Company of Heroes\RelicCOH.exe" -mod xxxxxxxx -dev *

(Replacing "xxxxxxxx" with whatever the mod's ".module" file is named.)

The "-dev" at the end may be required

For older CoH versions, the "-mod" may need to be "-modname"

For the Ewiger Krieg mod it would be:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\THQ\Company of Heroes\RelicCOH.exe" -mod Ewiger_Krieg -dev

Note
As of the latest patch 2.502, there could be more than one ".module" file in the
"C:\Program Files (x86)\THQ\Company of Heroes" folder.
If there is more than one, I would use the "xxxxxxxx.module" file, rather than one of the:
"xxxxxxxx DLC(1,2,3).module" files

can you do it set by set please this is my first time installing a mod for a game of mine please.and how do i make a shortcut please tell me and be excpt

Alternatively;

This will create a shortcut to the Company of Heroes ".exe" file on your desktop.

The shortcut will have the "C of H" icon, and will be labeled:
"RelicCOH.exe - Shortcut"

3. Right click the "RelicCOH.exe - Shortcut" icon located on your desktop, select "Properties"
