Throne of the Lich King on 1.7 [SOLVED]

Post by jpeart »

I am trying to play Throne of the Lich King for the first time and I'm having trouble. I am running the latest version 1.7. I unzipped the module into my plugins directory. Started Myth and selected New Game. I clicked the plugins button and enabled the Throne of the Lich King. I expected to see a new level called something like "Throne of the Lich King" but all I see are the single player levels. I tested it with multiplayer as well, but I don't see any new levels listed there either.

Am I missing something obvious or doing something wrong? Can anyone confirm that this plugin works with 1.7?

thanks for any help you can offer,
Jonathan

Did you hold Shift when clicking New Game or the OK button after choosing the plugin?

I did hit the OK button after selecting the plugin and it was displayed as an active plugin. I have not held shift when selecting new game. That sounds vaguely familiar, is that supposed to unlock all the single player levels?

thank you for your quick reply,
Jonathan

Holding shift when clicking New Game did the job. Thanks!

Is that what you have to do for most plugins? I am just getting into using plugins so I don't know if that is common practice.


thanks again,
Jonathan

It is what you have to do to see all of the solo maps. Otherwise you will only see the solo maps that you have progressed through in the campaign.

As stated before, holding Shift as you press New Game or the OK button after activating plugins shows all levels. The thing is some mapmakers either do not know or forget how to make their map or the first of a series of maps to show up without using Shift. So you might not need to do it for all plugins. It is only done for solo/coop maps. Also make sure when you activate a plugin to check at the bottom and the top of the list of solo levels. Some are made to show up on the top while others are made to show up on the bottom. Once you have played it at least once, it stays on the list and you won't need to use Shift to make it reappear.

I tried to append [SOVED] to the post subject but it seems to only affect a single post and not the entire thread. Is there a way I can alter the entire thread's subject line?

thanks,

It isn't needed, but if you really want to you could just add something to the original post about being solved.
