It was.

Graphical errors are unfortunately not uncommon in the mod - several show up within this very video. That said, the developer still works on and fixes the mod over on ModDB.

Any version should be fine to install mods on or make mods of your own. As for installation, the developer of Uncommon Valor recommends it be installed in the game's folder. Instructions were included, to my knowledge. Be aware it is a very large and finicky mod. If it does not suit your fancy, I'd recommend trying a different, smaller mod before giving up on the scene entirely.

The AI is somewhat improved, at least. I'm not entirely sure that it really changes its tactics much, but it might be the case. Having worked with the AI some myself in my own mods I can certainly say that some changes like the tank HP increases probably increased the AI's perceived CV/'Combat Value' of those units, and may encourage less blobbing. It is a very large, expansive mod in any case, and though I myself do not much enjoy playing it (given I do not agree with how it is balanced) it has certainly acquired a fanbase all of its own. Worth a try, I'd say.

Have you tried this AI mod?: www.moddb.com/games/axis-allies/downloads/aimod1 I'm not sure I've played with it, but it sounds like this AI mod on the old fan website that was pretty challenging.

I'd like to upload a few more clips later - there are some already up on my channel besides this one if you'd like to check them out, scenes that I always liked or found signifigance in back when I first watched the show.

I'll see about producing a video on this subject over the next few days.

@@RoughnecksSTCfan It will be interesting :)

Yes, at least the ones in this mission. Pink is typically a texture loading error (like, model trying to load two different textures for one mesh, not something vanilla A&A does) and red boxes are missing model (usually unit file pointing to wrong folder). At one point I think I uploaded a fix for these specific issues here somewhere. Edit: if you look in the other comment thread on this episode, I uploaded a fix.

What file did you install? I think this is just the basic 5.0 version, but its been a long time since I downloaded it myself, so maybe they're not in there. If you want I can just upload the whole Campaigns folder somewhere, but I'm a bit surprised they wouldn't already be in. At the risk of suggesting something obvious, did you scroll down when in the campaigns screen?

@@RoughnecksSTCfan i installed the 5.0 version. i added the data and video folder like it told me to my existing axis and allies file. and everything shows up except the campaign missions. if you could upload it somewhere that would be amazing. would i just add the to the same file i added the data and video to? appreciate the quick response.

@@joeshiesty7121 Yeah, it would just be as simple as merging a Data folder I give you with your own Data folder. It'll have a /Campaign and /Maps folder inside. I'll try to do this in about 30 minutes and post the link here if I can. Google drive, probably.

@@RoughnecksSTCfan okay and i would download both campaign and the maps correct?i appreciate it! would you mind if i posted gameplay of this too?

@@joeshiesty7121 I wouldn't mind at all! I love seeing more gameplay of this game, especially modded gameplay. I may even subscribe. In the mean time, here's a link to a RAR archive with the Campaign files and associated Maps. Note I also added in some of my bugfixes including the missing models and texture paths in this video, and the banner icons and minefield fixes mentioned in the video: drive.google.com/file/d/18Lqa-Xj9f4Bcyt3X5RVM7l5GZOF1KoS0/view?usp=sharing Just unpack the winrar archive and then copy or cut and paste the entire thing into your modded Data folder (or just the Maps and Campaign files, if you wish.) That should be all you have to do. I hope this was helpful! I will say: I am not the hugest fan of this mod. While the sheer scope and scale of it impresses me and I am a big fan of the modders' work overall, the balance at times feels a bit questionable and there is so much content that chasing and fixing bugs is pretty difficult for me to do. If you're new to playing mods for this game, and don't particularly enjoy this one, give another a chance before going off A&A mods altogether.

Thanks, I actually have another UV vid coming out today that I'd love to get your advice on too - the Axis Northern China mission. I'm not sure how to approach ot given how easily killed infantry are in the mod.

@@RoughnecksSTCfan if i remember well the strategy that i used to complete this mission was separated by 3 phases, 1st phase being the most important one. 1st phase is composed by building up your HQ regiments and establishing a defese on the bridge of " city center " ( the fist city that follows the train rails ) after that you can move south to tsun-hua and then to the fist city on the west part of tsun-hua, there you will find some chinese HQ regiments that you have to destroy, destroying those HQ will conclude the 1st phase. the orden of HQ that you have to build on the start of the mission is: infantry HQ, industrial HQ, mechanized HQ, then research military surplus and sniper tech, armor HQ. for the defense of the bridge you can use 2 mortar infantry, 2 sniper infantry, for the 1st push south use 2 tanket, 1 mechanized infantry, 1 mechanized ant air. the secret of this phase is speed, you have to do all of this before the chinese can mass produce panzer 1 and cv3 tankettes, for that remember to spam the land lease ability of your general, use the retreat ability to move quickly but keep you regiments on the attack stand

@@RoughnecksSTCfan 2th phase is the battle for the center of the map, for that you will need at least 2 battle groups, composed of: 2 chi-ha regiments, 2 armor/anti tank regiments, 1 anti air regiment, and one more unit that can be another anti air or anti tank, whatever you like. you can also build 8 regiments of type 96 150mm artilhary and divide then on 2 groups, each artilhary group accompanying 1 battle group for fire support. dont let the chinese gain too much experince on their units, always try to destroy then, but also try to keep your regiments alive so they can get levels, when the chinese are retrating remember to use the retreat ability to get close to them, so when they stop runing you will be right on top and can eliminate their units easily. remember to pause the game too when giving all those orders during battles, the map is big and you are using lots of regiments, it can get very overwherming dealing with mutiple battles at once

@@RoughnecksSTCfan 3rt phase is just the final push for the chinese main base. just move south and capture the cities/factures there, and then go south-west all the way to the west border of the map, there will be a lot of chinese HQ and Air base on those parts of the map

That's a good idea. I'll see if I can start one this weekend.

@@RoughnecksSTCfan great. there's a lot of cool missions on the new campaign, like: dieppe raid, eben emael for the germans, battle of Shanghai for the japanese. even the original campaign have some new touch, like the guadalcanal battle, now you have to deal with the japanese fleet, and the battle of berlin is just impossible to complete :v

@@EddyRichtofen I've set a video of the first El Alamein mission (vanilla Allies campaign) to upload tomorrow morning. My microphone doesn't really seem to be working anymore, for some reason, but I'll do some videos of other UV stuff afterwards anyway.
