Description

This mod adds many gameplay options to deathmatch for Homeworld 2, such as strategic points, bounties, RU injections, fog of war options, ship tokens, research tokens, power-up tokens, dynamic music, and many more. Some options use timers to turn abilities on and off, such as build rounds, hyperspace windows, truces, and invulnerability cycles. The mod also enhances map-making by allowing visual effects to be added to maps and more scripting power is available. Some custom maps that come with the mod include mercenary ships that players can "hire" and use, hyperspace gates that are always on the map and can be captured by any player, and a "victory token" that kills all your enemies if you are able to capture it.

Hi, Having problems getting this to run. I can't use the command shortcut that's specified in the readme file...

what do I change the command line to, to get the mod to run?

Thanks

The command line shortcut should be:

C:\Program Files\Sierra\Homeworld2 \Bin\Release\Homeworld2.exe -mod dynamicdeathmatch.big -GameRules dynamicdeathmatch

If you installed HW2 in a different place, then you should use that path. A good way to make a shortcut for the mod is to copy your default HW2 shortcut and then edit the properties and add this to it:

-mod dynamicdeathmatch.big -GameRules dynamicdeathmatch

You might also need to put the path in quotation marks. The game also needs to be patched to version 1.1 for the mod to work.
