@Greyfox, sorry about the delay. I hope this helps......





Install SC
Install 1.08 patch - run to make sure it works

Downloads

SCX II
SCX IIc
SCX IIc ESM Fix
SCX IIc Update

SCX Install

Run the SCX_Project_II.exe file and install SCX II
Once done (read the readme file) and then run the TWO .bat file

First one - Install_Graphics.bat
Can be found - C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Sub Command\Graphics

This installs all the required graphic files for SCX II
All the files that SCX II installed will be removed from this folder once the .bat file finishes as they are no longer needed.

WARNING - This will take a fair ammount of time. DO NOT close the DOS window that appears !!!!

Second one - Install_Loadout.bat
Can be found - C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Sub Command\Interfaces\AkulaII

This should only take a few seconds to install.


OK, this is SCX II now installed.

Check your install works. Probably the easiest way is to goto the USNI Reference option in game.
There should be loads more Countries in there now. Check through a few to make sure the graphics work ok.

Once your happy exit the game and time for the SCX IIc install.


SCX IIc Install

Run the SCX_Project_IIc.exe file to install SCX IIc.

Once the installer finishes, you again need to run a .bat file.

Install_Graphics.bat
Can be found - C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Sub Command\Graphics

This installs all the required graphic files for SCX IIc
All the files that SCX IIc installed will be removed from this folder once the .bat file finishes as they are no longer needed.

Again check you install works by running the game.

First thing you should notice is on the splash screen. A SCX logo is now on the bottom right.
Again, check out the USNI Reference menu to check the graphics.

Once happy, exit from the game.



At this point SCU can be set up.
The readme for this can be found
C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Sub Command\SCU_Docs
in the SCU_Instructions.htm file.

Follow the instruction in there to install SCU.


Next is the ESM Fixes file.

Unzip this file into your C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Sub Command directory.
This will replace some files within the Bin and Database folders.

Nothing else to do with this file.

Run the game again and make sure things work ok.



Finally the SCX_IIc_Update.exe file

Download and run this file.

Once the installer finishes, you again need to run a .bat file.

USNI_Fixes.bat
Can be found - C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Sub Command\Graphics

Again, only a few seconds to install.


Finally check your game works ok (again).


And that is it all installed.




It has been a while since ive done all of this, so I may have got the last two parts the wrong way around
I checked my install (as im typing this) and all seems ok, but you never know :hmm:
