3). I cannot get German campaigns to work with the mymenu exe supplied with the Ostpak. I replaced it with the mymenu exe from PP2x, linked above by Brit44 Aldo. This allows me to play the German campaign. Can you tell me which one of them exactly? Thanks.

Download the file from here: https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0BxJHVrUn6TWSc3RNUHFUQmdRVDA&export=downloadOpen the zip file and locate the mymenu.exe contained therein. Drop it into your main Panzer Elite folder, over-writing the one already there from Ostpak.

Mymenu.exe crash explained:
With build 18_1_2d I corrected an error in PE where the player and wingman units did not have any ammo available if the main gun has MG ammo type only. I neglected to consider if the unit did not have a main gun. The Ostpak 251/1 can be selected as a wingman. The unit has no main gun and uses the old work around of making the MG the bow gun. No ammo loaded after the original code and no main gun equaled crash while trying to load the ammo pool with MG ammo for a non existing gun.
I also neglected to enter this bug fix in the change log
Please check this version: brit44.com/pex/files/mymenu18_2a.zip Thank you Aldo - you are a Legend! For the interim period this can be applied as a hotifx - all you need to do is to replace the mymenu.exe with this. I will be re-uploading the entire mod shortly & updating the links.

No offence Daskal, but you are trying to update PE3, not add 3D wheels to Ostpak. Had you told me that to begin with, I would have to told you the amount of man hours is not hobby time. Not only do you have to update Ostpak, but you have to fix all the bugs BobR created by merging 3 mods into one while the game engine mod was in it's infancy.
Maybe in a week we can talk through the ghost tank, but to make that mod fit the game engine still needs HOURS of modding time. I will contine to help, but I am BITTER that this that #%&*$# (s_h_I_t) mod PE3.
A legend, no. I am just that prick al. Always have been, always will be. We would be luck if this POS is in compliance this year. And, I am sick of spending my Brit44-x time on PEPuke (3). But, I respect the man hours you have put into the mod so in for a penny, in for a pound.
I wish that floating truck guy would just mail me a rope and a stool.

Yeah, the German campaign works now. Speaking of which, were the Campaign files also changed with the included mods? I don't recall meeting a squad of M4A1's in the first mission at the first objective (they were M3's or M5's IIRC?)  Edit: Perhaps I remember it wrong as the backup scn file has them too in Platoon Alpha (and I suppose the definitions there are not influenced by the unit csv files like the Zug Falke). But, the first German AK campaign mission seems broken. I'm pretty sure the US infantry used to move around and start retreating at some point. Now, they just stay put inside the buildings so some are impossible to locate, especially since the artillery seems rather weak now and does barely any damage to the Toum Station houses. I've compared the scenario scn files and apart from some unit types, it seems the same. So, perhaps some general AI changes?

Ok, installed, everything runs fine, just trying the first russian scenario in June 1941, but cannot remember how can I enter the gunsight view. I select the gunner with 1 on the numpad, but I get only the inside cuppola view. How can I enter the periscopes to aim and fire?

A quick refresher of the default key commands can be found here: http://pedg.yuku.com/topic/1710/Feeling-a-little-rustyWithin a given 3D cockpit, you can have up to four camera tracks. To access these, move the mouse in the direction of the track or use the F1-F4 keys. F8 is the default shortcut to the gunners optics.

Can you post a screenshot? I have to check at my end as well - I did make some changes to the actual menu - removing the soldier sprites etc. Maybe it has to do with that.

That made the options entry back and useable. Thanks guys!
I noticed the "default" scenarios are not useable now, is there any way to solve that?
