Being able to play Europe maps in Crusader and vice versa

I have created this tread only to let you know that one is able to play Europe maps in Crusader, and the other way around - to play the old Crusader maps in Europe. I haven't realized this by myself - Lord Vetka had noticed that he can run my Europe maps in Crusader. I never tried playing Europe maps in Crusader before, although I believe that I had tried playing Crusader maps in Europe, and that I had failed. One thing is sure - or I am mistaken, and this was possible from the beginning, or this is possible to do until the latest Stronghold Europe patch by Teutonen Ritter.

 

Anyway, if you do put your Crusader maps in Europe, there will still be one illogical thing - in some maps you will find some cacti or camels... For this reason I am planning to edit those maps so they would look more natural. On top of my list are some favorite maps of mine which were made within my family, and some of those great maps created by Firefly, such as Close Encounters, The River, etc... I expect I am going to be pretty slow in this, but I hope I will adopt at least some of those maps. I will be writing about my progress in this tread.

 

And, one more thing. Now when we know that Europe and Crusader maps can be played in both versions I feel need to thanks Chris again for giving us Stronghold Europe subsection in Downloads Central. Thanks to that we will be able to see which maps were originally created for Europe, and which ones for Crusader; and each map will surely look way better in the version it was made for. Besides that, we still don't know for sure if there might occur some problem while playing an Europe map in Crusader, and vice versa - we do know that it works fine on those several computers we tested it on.

 

Regards!

    • How about Stronghold Crusader Definitive Edition?

      Hey, guys, check this out?   Age of Empires Definitive Edition   It looks really cool to me, and in the matter of fact - far batter than many of those HD editions of many games, even Stronghold Crusader. I mean, this isn't only about enabling higher resolutions, and making the game to look better on wide screens and laptops, this is, as they say, almost all new or remastered textures, and improved mechanics. At least so they say.   So then I though, it would be awesome to have a Definitive Ed

      The very first mission pits you against three Nomads with advantage, perhaps the best rusher lord out there. You are given a Rat as a fodder, who is very unlikely to help you out by himself other than providing a staging ground for your troops, perhaps the only pro to save him. How did you survive the initial pressure? I was kinda lucky with a double Nomad attack bothering with destroying the Rat's infinite woodcutters, rather than attacking the naked lord. Without that, I'm clueless a

      Okay so I would play test this map again but it is actually pretty difficult and I somehow can't get past my own mission. For context there were no changes to the specified mission I am talking about. So the premise of the map is that you play as the evil Sorcerer Janibas before the Ice campaign. The map spans 5 missions. Yesterday I noticed mission 2 had an issue-that being you were supposed to kill the blue lord and win but that didn't work since I forgot to set the flag color to blue and
