Battle of Donesk 1.0

How can i import the mission in the game?

Hi @George Savov -- as a side note, we should have a tutorial (maybe more than one) on this topic in a few weeks. 

The short version of the below is that while you will easily be able to bring the mission into Steel Beasts,  it requires a legacy map, and this makes it more complicated (and is why we will be doing a video on this topic shortly).  Presumably the author of the file can point you to the legacy map, at which point, I would recommend this thread:

For right now, to get the mission in place before you do the maps steps -- go to this folder in Windows:

Extract the file to downloads, and if it makes it easier to find, possibly a new folder inside that one if you are doing a lot of other downloading for Steel Beasts or playing multiplayer games, because that folder is used for multiplayer downloaded missions as well.

@SippyCup Thanks for making this.  Can you point to which legacy map this mission uses?

Thank you for the explanation ! 👍

My pleasure.  I'm still trying to find out what map this goes with.  I'm hoping @SippyCup can address this, as I'm not sure how anyone else can play this without knowing that.

Oh sorry, I'm not very active here. I'll go check, I haven't even converted it myself because I forgot virtually everything I learned with the editor.

Will report back. I'm curious as to how it will play now, since there were a couple of triggers (such as the Blackhawk "landing" on the roof of the building) that were very hack-ish and will probably be broken now.

*EDIT*

Map is Hannover-Weserbergland

Thank you!  I will give it a try when able.

You're welcome / thanks. If I find the time I'll go through the tutorial and give it a shot.

OK, this is starting to come back to me a bit but I have forgotten most of the terminology and workings of the map packages. I had made my own .ter based on Hannover-Weserbergland height map but only have an old draft saved with about half of the elements missing. In other words, I have to make this scenario again as far as I know, which I am currently doing.

So there will be a SB3 and SB4 version of this map which differ slightly in layout but operate the same manner. I've played through it 3 times and everything is working, just polishing it up now.
