Under Steam/SteamApps/common/star wars empire at war/corruption/mods in whatever file you have your stuff in (mine is ProgramFiles x86) Then, go to steam, Right click and go to properties and set it to swfoc MODPATH=Mods\(Filename) under Set Launch Options. I do not know if they require you to download some files into Corruption data files. Some mods do. THis works for ALL mods as far as I've seen.
A simple question: I don't look at mods in detail often so i dont know if this has been asked, but will grunt squads ever have different weapons at the same time? Like one guy with the needler, 1 with a fuel rod or needler, etc.? (i think i saw the needler once but not sure, been a while since i played the beta >.> I like it though!) and same question with the elites.
Like I said, I have no knowledge on how to fix XML files. Even if i looked it up on Google, I wouldn't understand what to do even if it told me in laymans terms. I'm a hands on learner ^.^
Does this not work for Steam? I played with the files a bit by moving them around so the Steam could actually start it, but when I did, I get XML Guidelogs have an error or soemthing. I have no idea how to fix that.
Well the most notable issue i have with this mod, Is that campaign is a little weird. It's like a cross between the FOC camp and this one's. It starts with Zann in his cell, he talks to Jabba blah blah blah, then he comes out as Mandalore. Then, he speaks to Urai in a different voice, Urai comes up as Nilhus. (Chat is the same btw) I play thru the FOC camp with these different ppl who talk the same. Beat the mission. Then i get to GC map. The units and such are different, the chat however is not. Different voices saying different things about your mods campaign from the original campaign Text which is what shows up along with Tyber Holo image. It gets pretty confusing. Thats MY issue. I played it with Steam Gold, (i modded my way in like i usually do with steam, sweaw MODPATH=Mods\The_Reckoning.) Mod was in folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\star wars empire at war\corruption\Mods\The_Reckoning.
I've realized that your mod is not the issue. My computer just decided that Asian Dynastys can f*** itself and wont let it load. Warchiefs and reg work just fine. Irritates me. I cant use any Aoe III mods now which is irritating cause i luv mods :(
Well i must say, I'm not a huge fan of land battles... But this held me for like 6 hours straight. Kamino + ez AI + no pre-build base = very big infantry war with a lot of mass graves lol. I had to quit cause the bodies overloaded my screen, which is a rather large feat all by itself. Wraith shots look amazing, I kinda wish that vehicles came in platoons, but i know that your trying to stick to the Halo game. Its sad that development is put on hold, but congratz on promotion. P.S. If you did this all by yourself; you are the modding god.
Doesn't work for me. Gets af far as the first load screen before main menu, then it sits there... spinning and spinning and spinning... that damn coin... Anyway, kinda sad that it doesn't work. Steam Collectors Edition
I'm going to assume this doesn't work with Steam Collectors Edition... I got to the loading screen for the main menu but it wouldn't stop loading. I left it there for 2 hours and went and saw Ted. Kinda sad that it doesn't work for me :( I'm a major fan of making huge cities,
Pirates imo are vastly underpowered in space combat. Their first frigates cost so much, but only have 3 weak hardpoints that do little damage. The Venator seems OK, the mass drivers could be up'ed on dmg just a bit. The fighters and corvette both seem good tho. I'm just saying all of this because a lvl 1 station for Mandalorian and Empire can take out a Pirate fleet of 30+ size (player controlled fighters and bombers) AI can take on that same fleet but lose after doing some damage. The only good ship they have is op i know its not supposed to be there. There are 2 versions of the Venator in GC, one has a gravity well other doesnt. The Gravity Well one is so op, its fast, one hits everything, and doesn't take like any damage. 1 of these took out a lvl 5 space station, 9 star destroyers, and a bunch of other random ships. The fleet size was like 95
My hanger reasoning is that the Imperial Bombers can prove quite a nuisance and when the Emps start to bring out Star Destroyers, ur Crusaders or IPV (or w/e the pirates use) cant be everywhere at once. The pirates and Mandalorians should both get hangers with at least fighters imo. In any case, Still fun :D Love the Mandalorian infantry.
Screw it, i give up, I tried everything people suggested to do, i get to the title screen where its all weird, it says Kamino bot left and its blank and it says Star Wars Eaw Foc so, I give up. I don't understand why winRAR puts the mod no where near steam, The instruction are horrible! Someone make a video :(
I wish Keldabe and the Venator had hangers. I also like the new laser schemes, however, the blasters for infantry should not be that big, you could keep it the same, but tone down the size of it just a bit. The Mandalorian Tank seems a little useless to me at close range, i was firing at AT-ST's and the shots would go right thru it with no damage and explode somewhere off screen if u didn't track it.
Ok new problem. I now have multiple mods for this game, and all of them were working fine, now, whenever i start it up and get the first screen, it closes on me and gives me an Except. This is what the except file says...

Oops i forgot to edit this, i figured the problem out myself. For whatever reason, it went PvM folder, PvM folder, Data blablabla. I just moved one out and deleted the other. However instead of swfoc.exe like the instructions say, i had to do sweaw MODPATH=Mods\PvM
Btw, Very impressed with the mod :) I always liked to play as pirates.
I did do the Clone Wars mod for FoC, but i moved the files out of the folder and still didn't work. However, the set properties for Clone wars is sweaw MODPATH=Mods\star_wars_clone_wars_iii whereas this one is swfoc.exe MODPATH=Mods\PvM,
Ok i need help installing this. I've tried repeatedly to play the .85 but cannot get it to work with Steam. I did all the steps correctly, i triple checked it. Does it not work because its the gold edition? I do have the patch for FoC cause it came with the download. Plz help :o
Nvm, I overlooked the option on the chancellor. I'm new to all 3 of these mods so my bad.
Is the diplomacy mod up to date? I can't find the culture selection for my empire.
Great mod, sum1 deserves a cookie....
...wait, let's step it up a bit and make it TWO cookies :o
Love it, Usually i prefer a black background instead of blue, but i understand we are rather close to the planet. Oh well.

It appears no one is going to answer my question : /.

Uninstall everything. Leave no files behind. Complete wipe for the game. Then reinstall.

All good, just had to redownload game
now it changed its mind, It says that surfaceFX.xml has syntax errors. I can't even find the file.

I have no idea what any of that means, I'm not a coder :o
Oh yes.... 236 kb a second... What happened to my 1mb? Anyway looking foward to the mod :D I always prefered the clone wars to Galactic Civil War.
Oops i forgot to edit this, i figured the problem out myself. For whatever reason, it went PvM folder, PvM folder, Data blablabla. I just moved one out and deleted the other. However instead of swfoc.exe like the instructions say, i had to do sweaw MODPATH=Mods\PvM
