![[ARCHIVE] Imperial Civil War 2.2.5 (Full Mod)](https://media.moddb.com/images/downloads/1/140/139105/VersionArchive.png)
yea boi
Thanks for all the hard work! :^)
Thanks mod is good
Have the VOs for units been pushed to 2.3?
Thanks :)
The VO is in the Steam Workshop version of 2.2.5. This download is meant for GoG and Disk copies of the game, which haven't received the same official patches so we have to be a lot more limited with the memory we take up, which means we can't include things like VO and the map layout images, or the issue when the game crashes while loading saves (which was fixed on Steam) would occur.
If these measures are required to make the other versions of the mod stable I'm completely content with them being there.
---
It is a shame that a part of the player base gets denied the official patches.
GOG version has patched memory usage, it can use 4GB's of RAM just like the steam version :)
This comment is currently awaiting admin approval, join now to view.
The game crashes on startup without an error, Any idea why?
Same here, When I launch the game, it works until the game menu but 10 seconds later it crash to desktop without any error message.
Before installing this version (2.2.5), I deleted all previous versions of Imperial Civil War.
I looked on the "FOC/Data/XML" folder but I don't have "AI" or "Enum" folders.
With the last version (2.2) I never had any issue, it worked well.
Any Idea ?
EDIT : Ok so, my original game Force Of Corruption don't work anymore... I will try to reinstal the game.
EDIT 2 : It seems to work now :) I will see...
How did you fix the error?
Tombslord had a problem with the actual FoC game and he would have re-installed it.
Try launching vanilla FoC and see if that works?
Same. Every other version worked fine on Steam but this. Whenever I open the game as usual, it'll show the front page of the mod before crashing out without any explanation.
Hopefully it'll get patched up soon
I've updated the download with some XML files that were missing before, which could potentially cause errors when not loose (they were in the config files), so it should be fine now.
Ah ok.
Thanks man
Is there an apropriate place to report you bugs for this mod ?
Cause I find one : I play Eriadu Authority, when I build AA Turret it not fire when an aircraft (or anything else) come at its range. (Even if I tell it to fire in a specific target). The turret follow the target (it rotate) but never fire.
EDIT : It's not only the AA turrets of the Eriadu Authority, it's seems to bug with all imperial type AA turrets (cause the republic type AA turret work well, RIP my Lancet Squadron...)
Corey : "I've updated the download with some XML files that were missing before"
With this update my game crash directly when I launch it. ("An exception has occurred. See _logfile.txt and _except.txt for details.")
This message appeared too sometime when I tried to save the previous version.
So I will reinstall the previous version
It sounds like you may have interfering files from another mod in your base game Data folder.
No, because I deleted all the game (at my post June 30th) and reinstall it, then install ICW 2.2.5 only.
I have nothing else than the base game and ICW 2.2.5
For me it just won't start.
Do you have the game set to run in compatibility mode with Windows XP?
I use Windows 10 and I got the problem fixed yesterday I forgot to move the Batch file out of the mod folder.
This comment is currently awaiting admin approval, join now to view.
IF you're using the Steam version TLau18, I suggest you get the Steam Workshop copy of the mod. This version is specifically intended for people who have GoG and the Disk version, and as such is more limited in some ways as well.
Thanks for the heads up Corey but it won't really be necessary. Mod works fine for me so I see no need to muck about even further
Yeah mine crashes to
I have GOG Empire of War, the thing just crashes
Please help
Did you install the mod by placing it over an existing version, and do you have any conflicting files from other mods installed to your base game's data folder? (RaW and AotR are generally the mods that do that)
This comment is currently awaiting admin approval, join now to view.
Game crashes on start up for me. First time installing so no other mods exist. No "AI" or "Enum" folders exist under FOC/DATA/XML. I'm Playing on a retail disk.
Do you have the FoC ram fix?
I've been having issues running the mod, when I run the BAT file to start up the mod I get the typical "an exception has occured" message the moment the game's executable starts.
I tried a fresh install, with witch I needed to toss in a patch to be able to run even the base game (4gb patch Gamewatcher.com), with that over I extracted the mod directly from the ZIP file to the Mods folder and tossed the BAT into FOC's directory.
There might be some sort of issue with how the patch works with the mod, but I can't get to playing the mod with a broken base game. I'm running the latest version of Windows 10, with FOC being a retail gold pack version of the game.
Finally got some logs for the crash, though it's quite long so I had to get rid of the stack dump.

Unfortunately the crash log doesn't tell us anything. If you have a clean installation of FoC, set to the Windows XP compatibility mode with the mod extracted to mods, it should work. Beyond that, without seeing exactly how your setup is, I can't say where exactly the installation has gone wrong.
Our general advice when people experience trouble with the Disk or GoG version with mods is to get the Steam version, it has received more officiall patches for pretty gamebreaking issues and is just generally more stable, with fewer variables to account for. Releasing for the Disk and GoG versions at all requires jumping through a lot of hoops.
hi i really need help i am having the exception error it crashes on launch i thought it was another mod interfering like what you guys were talking about so i reinstalled the game and deleted all other mod files the only mod i have is 2.2.5 thrawns revenge but it still crashes i checked for any of the ai or enem files in data but there were none and i have a ram fix because i needed to get one to play on windows 10 pls help.
one thing worth noting is that i have empire at war on drive D not C this has caused problems in the past with some mods as they try to go to C drive and wont let me change the path does this have something to do with it?

Releasing for the Disk and GoG versions at all requires jumping through a lot of hoops.
I have installed EaW/FoC on Drive D as well and it didn't cause any problems so far.
In terms of ICW 2.2.5 directly, in my personal case it is interesting that the .zip file ICW225.1 worked on my system (Win 10) even with other mods installed (none of those places extra files in the original Data Folder) while with the ICW225.2-file I get a crash with Exception message on start up as well.
On install I generally remove the previous version of a mod so there's no overlap.
Some further experimenting brought something odd about. I have changed nothing about my FoC Installation or any existing mod.
The configuration is as follows:
- Windows 10
- FoC Disk Version with all existing patches + Ram Fix.
- Compatibility Mode Win XP
- Uses Drive D instead of C.
- Installed Mods (each in its own folder and none of them places files in the main data folder):
- Corporate Addon
- ICW22Demo
- ICW 2.1
- ICW 2.2.5
- Old Republic at War
- Republic at War 1.2 (no longer places files in the main data folder)
- Rise of the Mandalorians
- Battlefront Commander
Under this configuration, when I use the ICW 225.1-zip file (those with the XML-files packed) the mod runs flawlessly.
If I use the ICW 225.2-zip file with the loose XMl-files the mod crashes on start up.

Help; i can't get the mod to start in english, which breaks everything and render the game unreadable with missing texts everywhere. I added the line to launch the game in english in the shortcut which works for every other mods i played but this one. I have a gog version.
Just rename the MasterTextFile_English in Data\Text to your language

Hello the mod doesnt work for me when I'm double clicking the bat it starts the game with a white screen (did that when i got it a week ago but it eventually transitioned to the normal menu} for like 1 second then simply crashes with no error.i have both RAW and AOTR 2.6 but the data folder doesnt have anything from either of these (renamed the AOTR data to something else and copied the vanilla from another folder) so it has the original data.It worked fine with 225.1 but with 225.2 it doesnt.
Are you running with compatibility mode set?
Yes i do,anyways i know i'm a bit late but i fixed it by compressing the "loose" xml file to the config file,just so to let you know that that loose xml causes problems apparently.
When i downloaded this mod it still said 2.2 and was not updated
I Belive it says 2.2 regardless, If i'm not mistaken it was the new one because when i was saving there was a message saying next update 28th June (that was for 225.1 i think )
unlike the old 2.2 where it simply said something about a save fix or something
The overall version number doesn't change with the patches on the title screen.
