Marvel Adventures 2 2 Installer file

Ver. 2.2
"Marvel Adventures" is a mod for the greatest superhero game of all time, Irrational's Freedom Force vs The Third Reich. Marvel comics and all related characters are the property of their respective copyright holders. This is a work of fan art for free distribution and used without official permission from Marvel comics, Disney, or anyone else. It's just for fun.

This is a gigantic mod that encompasses large swaths of the Marvel comics universe. It attempts to capture the classic feel of a large assortment of characters with new stories set during the heyday of such icons as Captain America, Thor, the X-Men, the Avengers, Spider-Man, and the Fantastic Four, as well as a bevy of villains and guest stars.

Included you will find a total of ten campaigns for a wide variety of characters and teams. You can face the villainous Hellfire Club as the X-Men, or struggle to save all of the Nine Realms as the Mighty Thor!

This mod is akin to my massive DC Universe According to Grey, though on a much smaller scale. I have not tried to capture the entire width and breadth of the Marvel Universe, just my favorite corners thereof. You'll still find a very large mod here, with most of the classic heroes and many of the classic villains of the Marvel Universe. On the other hand, this mod embraces a similar design philosophy to the DCUG, not trying to completely capture any single interpretation of the Marvel U., instead trying to create an idealized version, something of the best of all worlds, in my opinion. It is most closely based on the Bronze Age, but I took liberties to clean up continuity, for the sake of the story I wanted to tell, or just to include a character or al look that I liked.

Keep in mind, not all of the campaigns tell complete stories, and all of these are intended to be expanded and continued. In the future I have plans to add campaigns for Dr. Strange, and perhaps Captain Marvel, Hulk and others.

-------------------------------------------------------
Expansion One
-------------------------------------------------------
This release includes the first major expansion for the MA mod, adding a ton of new characters, both heroes and villains, including the big names that didn't make it into the mod the first time, like the Incredible Hulk and Spider-Man! It also includes new campaigns, as well as expansions for several of the originals. You'll also find fixes and tweaks for a great deal of the original content. New/expanded campaigns include:
-X-Men (1)
-X-Men (2, mini-campaign telling solo stories)
-Avengers
-Fantastic Four (completing their arc)
-Spider-Man and the Marvel Knights
-SHIELD (mini-campaign)

This should be completely save-game compatible, but obviously the tweaks made to extant campaign missions won't be accessible unless you play back through them. These are mostly minor balance issue tweaks, so that isn't a necessity.

-------------------------------------------------------
Version 2.2
-------------------------------------------------------
-Fixed problems with several campaigns, including Iron Man, X-Men 1, Avengers, Thor, and others
-Fixed a ton of graphical glitches
-Replaced some of the .exes to fix some errors
-Fixed numerous typos and missing dialog
-Fixed balance and AI issues
-Included save files for each campaign to allow players to skip around and so they don't have to play back through everything to see the fixes

-------------------------------------------------------
:Known Issues:
-------------------------------------------------------
Here are some possible issues you may run into.
-Some anti-virus programs will find false positives on the .exes of this mod. These are nothing but batch files I compiled myself, but because they copy and replace the campaign files in the background in order to switch campaigns out, AV programs tend to freak out about them. If this makes you uncomfortable, feel free to use the included shortcut instead and switch the campaigns manually as outlined below.
-Saves during missions will load, but the mission will not work properly once loaded. This is the nature of EZScript, and I'm afraid I can't do anything about it.
-You won't see balance and other fixes unless you start new campaigns. That's just the nature of FF's saves; they carry a snapshot of everything, so no changes will show up in old campaigns unless you restart them. That's why I'm including saves.
-If you've got certain video card and driver combinations, certain characters, like Iron Man, may have helmets/hats/hair that bob up and down on their heads when you have full video settings. Just turn off character shadows and that will stop.
-The game suffers rare CTDs in Windows 8 and 10. I have no idea what's causing these, and they aren't reliably recreatable. They don't seem to harm anything, but be aware.
-The dreaded pink texture issue seems to have reared its head again. This is when character textures show up bright pink. It is apparently being caused by the number of similar meshes/skins that the mod contains. With the help of Cyber Burn, I've fixed some of the biggest offenders, but this may still occur. Restarting the game or your computer tends to help for a time. Extended play sessions tend to be the culprit. This should be much less common now.
-The last mission in the Iron Man campaign is bugged and won't end properly. I can't figure out the issue, but as it is the last mission, you can still play the entire campaign.

:Installation:
---------------------

FIRST DELETE ANY PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF THE MOD!

Then, simply run the installer and point it to the proper directory, where FFvTTR is installed. The default data path points to the Steam installation of the game, so you'll need to change it if you have it installed in a different location. This is the default directory:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Freedom Force vs. the 3rd Reich\MA

Note the "MA" at the end. That is the mod folder. Don't forget to add that if you change the directory! Do NOT install the mod directly into your FF directory, as it won't work and it will likely mess up your game installation.

---------------------
:Campaigns:
---------------------
This is not your average mod. It has a total of 10 campaigns, 7 full length and 3 mini-campaigns (which might get expanded in the future)! Playing them used to be a bit complicated, but thanks to Abenavides, it's now just a matter of clicking on the appropriately named .exe included in the mod folder. Each of these launches the game with the appropriate campaign loaded. The rest of the game is the same, so you can play in the RR with the full cast of characters with any and all of the game modes. This just changes the campaign missions available to you.

If for some reasons the .exes don't work for you, you can still access all of the campaigns manually.

Simply choose the campaign you want out of the 'Campaigns' folder, copy it, rename the copy to campdef, and drop it in your main MA folder, rewriting the exiting one. Don't forget to copy these, or you'll lose campaigns!
