Company of Heroes Message Board  

I'm not sure if this is coincidence or not, but after the game patched up to 2.300 a few days ago, the FOW_RevealAll command no longer works for me. It comes back with the reply:
"[string "FOW_RevealAll"]:1 '=' expected near '(eof)'."

Has anyone else found this to happen?

they might have disabled it with the patch

I thought as much, but haven't seen this reported anywhere on the web yet. So I thought I'd ask.

User-made maps/mods fix [ 1 Comment ]

Just a reminder for those participating in the official map making contest or those wishing to simply play some of the great user made maps, there is an unofficial fix by community modding genius Corsix that corrects the bug that locks out user-made maps as of patch 2.300. It can be found here:

Download it here and unrar to your CoH folder. RelicCOH.exe has -dev permanently turned off in 2.300, and the RelicCOHUnblocked.exe you just unrared has -dev permanently turned on. Set your shortcuts to use the unblocked EXE if you want dev mode. For convenience, the included batch file can be used to swap the two files over - simply double click RelicCOHSwap(.bat) to swap -dev mode between permanently off and permanently on.

Because this patch enables the -dev command, you will only be able to play online with other players using this -dev fix. If you wish to play online normally, simply use the standard CoH shortcut or used the included .batch file to switch.

very good - works for me, found on planetcoh.gamespy.com/fullstory.php?id=149621
and FOW_RevealAll works again. Even in 2.300

devmode works, but trainer 2.300 does not. My luck never changes.

finally done - works both the trainer and the devmode (RelicCOHSwap(.bat) file has to be doubleclicked and everything works definitely fine)
