This is the first update of the 9 series, and the decade for the Complex Mod.
Many additions to the game, new units, new features and better graphical aspect, but the more important improvements have been done on stability, gameplay and performance.
Every duplicate ship/subsystem have been removed, redundant functions cleaned, lagging scripts revisited, a lot of bugs fixed.
The game has been balanced to reach the better space battle experience.I hope you enjoy all this work!
Full LOG here.
About the future of Complex, considering that Gearbox is working on the new Homeworld, this release is the last one for Homeworld 2, not the last one for Complex.
If the new engine will be great the new Complex will be on the way.
Thanks to everyone who's following Complex for so long time, Beghins.
early release?? are the AI fixed?...
doesn't matter so happy to see this! :D
Hi the exe installs correct, but game crashes to desk top against AI, either on none or personal screen res.What can you advise?
Same here, and have hw2 updated. Every older complex mod works perfectly fine for me except 9
ughhh Can you upload via torrent? its taken for everrr...
must be your internet took me minutes to download
If you are on WiFi, that may be your issue. I used to use WiFi and it was VERY slow, but when I started using Ethernet, it downloaded in about 4 minutes.
I dont think the cheating AI is fixed, they seem to have another source of RUs because I made sure that the AI only has 1 mining operation yet they achieved the secondary objective of having over 40000 RU. How can that be?
You can generate RUs from your own fleet and cannibalize ships
I think the same, AI cheating isnt fixed. i have just check old vertion and IA is not at this difficulty and not "Always" attack you any 10 minuts.
This is soooo awesome, thanks!
dear complex players i wish to fight but there is no one everyone is on tunngle i cant get it it wont accept tunngle if anyone is out there im alone and only wish to have some fun...
Loving it so far, but then I realised.
If this is the last version, we are never going to see that incredibly beautiful User Interface that was shown a little while back.
That sucks. :(
I write from the translator... I long waited for the 9th complex, but something didn't understand. The uniform destroyer, something didn't see the such. Power plant and capsules, them unless it wasn't planned to move away? Well and still a question where it is possible to read the list of changes? And I while only change of the menu noticed that.
It's really stupid to assume that homeworld 3 will be anything like Homeworld 1 or 2, even if Gearbox Software says so. For all knows well, they may be developing the game to be a tactical simulation instead of an RTS game...
Homeworld 3 still may not be able to come to us for years, so i do not see why you need to stop modding the game because of the wait.
This is a lovely lovely piece of work.
However, I get very bizzare sensitivity change for viewpoint changes - only on this mod. Very confusing but the sensitivity is so high it makes this mode basically unusable without extreme mouse-sensitivity changes in the driver. Only on this mod though.
Is there no .bin file for mac users?
no, but you can get this as a .zip from complex.mastertopforum.com/download-complex-last-release-9-1-vt27.html

Windows 7 said it installed incorrectly, so tried running before Windows reinstalled it and afterwards, but the Desktop Icon only starts the vanilla HW2.
Target properties match the .big file in
C:\Program Files\Sierra\Homeworld2\Data
Target properties are
"C:\ Program Files\ Sierra\ Homeworld2\ Bin\ Release\ Homeworld2.exe" -mod Complex91.big -hardwarecursor -overridebigfile"
Tried removing 'overridebigfile' but nothing. Removed the other mod files, didn't change the screen resolution when prompted.
Any help would be appreciated team!
Ignore that. Apparently the game is installing it to the wrong place. If anyone else has this issue, you need to ensure the Complex .big file is moved to the secondary data folder in
C:\Program Files\Sierra\Homeworld2\Bin\Release\data

On my pc the mod installed fine but the shortcut (not the windows link) came out with the wrong address.
I had to edit the shortcut a remove an extra "\" in between " Homeworld2.exe" -mod Complex91.big -hardwarecursor -overridebigfile"
and it came out "-mod\ Complex91.big -hardwarecursor -overridebigfile"
Oh and the guest saying the same thing is me... I forgot to sign in.. LOL

The install .exe should work for windows and macintosh, the download indicates Windows, Mac and Linux as platforms for which it should work
OMG it even biger than a game :P
Complex 9 is the best thing that happened to Homeworld 2 since it was created
Its too bad its the last update down this line.
why i always dowload error...only for a while then error
ok when i try to use HW2 updated to 1.1 on its own it runs fine, when i try to use complex, or the sister mod (complex simple) i doubleclick the shortcut, the hard-drive starts up, and the mouse changes to a loading icon, but then does nothing, nothing opens.
I have watched the taskmanager in processes, and it starts but then just disappears.
ANY HELP ?
If your using linux make sure your vidio cards are supported and try wine 1.6.0
if windows or mac.. I HAVE NO CLU
While playing online or LAN with my friend, I encountered out of sync error. currently haven't found working fix for it. tried older version of the mod, worked fine.

he y i think ai higaaran and vagyr both use some cheat....
vaygr builds a big fleet really quick dont know how the fish....
as for higaarans
they upgrade their mothership with battle asset really quick (like 30 mins or before) without battle shipyard...i checked 5-6 times using probes everywhere....
nd moreover where do they get so much resources that they keep building so many ships coz a lotta time it happened that ive got them to starve for res. by taking out all their res. collectors...but still (dnt say fusion coz that isnt much helpful without scavengers or refineries ;p)...
so some got any answeres for that???
yep.. they probably handicapped automatically depending on the difficulty

I have some fps drops when there is too many ships. It seems that its coming from the hiigara ships and factions. Example (Battleships, Orbital stations, Etc.) the following ships doesen't have LOD (level of detail), if may, can you fix this? This problem can decrease the fps and may lead to a halt.. Vaygr vs. Vaygr don't cause fps drops.. Hiigara vs. Vaygr it cause a very high fps drop even on high specs pc. I am not the only one who has the problem. I am looking forward in fixing the problem. Thanks in advance. this makes the game unplayable,
Is there Chinese language?
12/10! Absolutely fantastic game. Thanks so much beghins,best mod I've played for any game. Cheers!
Hi, viewed complex in the Mod Hall of Fame, then here, magnificent, what a beautiful job; sadly {very sadly} I never played Home World 2, went to buy a copy... Amazon "3 new from $1,067.76" or 5 used from $105. ... impressive ..I'm a noob-iot to mods , could anyone suggest a more economical place to obtain Home World 2?

Downloaded the 9.1 file but when I click to open it, I get a popup asking me what program I want to open the file with. Win7 OS. Thanx for any possible help.
Is there an installation for the Remastered edition on steam? I tried to subscribe there and the mod wont launch :(
