Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does this mod require the CoH beta 3. 5?
No, you do not need CoH beta 3. 5 to run this mod.
2) I can't find any werewolves.
Try Fort Nikel (west of Imperial City). It has 4 spawn points:
- There is a spawn point is in the field between Fort Nikel and Weye.
- One spawns near the entrance to the fort.
- There is a spawn point near the lake, west of the fort.
- The last spawn point is in the woods west of the lake past the dead trees.
3) Is there a console command to infect myself and check if the mod is working?
You can enable the debug menu either by editing the ini file or using the
"set cidwwsettings.enabledebug to 1" console command. Then you can use the
debug menu to infect yourself and add the moonstone. Equipping the moonstone
causes you to immediately transform to wolf.
