Delayed Deadlines

Description
Background

Delayed Deadlines allows players to take on the four major DLC campaigns at their own pace and not be forced to do it (or ignore it) at the prescribed time. Those who have ongoing campaigns/careers past the default start dates can also use this mod to play the campaigns inline with their current save. However, note that the save must have been created before the DLC's related patch has been installed (released September 3rd 2025 for Shadow of Kerensky) in order for the campaign to be offered to the player. This is true irrespective of when the player actually purchased the DLC.

Configuration

The MutePTs configuration variable is provided to remove the Priority Transmission buttons from the Home Screen once they have been triggered. The default value is False. It can be edited through the game's Options menu (via Mod Options[www.nexusmods.com] support).

The variable can also be edited through the DelayedDeadlines section of the user's Game.ini file:

C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Local\MW5Mercs\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\Game.ini

Credits and Thanks

This mod offers similar capability to BobbertModdert's[www.nexusmods.com] Extended Deadlines[www.nexusmods.com] and ljorder66's[www.nexusmods.com] Updated Extended Deadlines[www.nexusmods.com], but includes support for The Dragon's Gambit, Solaris Showdown, and Shadow of Kerensky DLCs.

thank you so much, I would much prefer to enjoy doing every side mission than ditch half or more so I don't miss campaign missions. This will let me enjoy my game so much more

The loaded save must be from before the DLC6 patch release was installed, which came out on 3/14. Otherwise the campaign event will have already triggered (regardless of when the DLC was purchased).

I got the DLC, saw that it said the missions had already expired, I have since grabbed your mod and it says it is running but I dont get the mission start, i got the dialog that says I can start it but I got no place to go to. Is it possible it didnt show up because im in COOP mode?

I haven't looked into trying to reset or 'untrigger' the DLC campaigns so they can be played if already expired. For the pre-Solaris ones I'm guessing most people have already played them or would import their current save into the career start. You could do that with this mod. Import your save into the Solaris career start with the mod enabled and it should let you play the earlier DLC campaigns.

Understood. Is not possible to extend the time? Or making it infinite? Just to allow that old saves to play the skipped dlc's in late game years. Anyway good mod and thanks.
