The Empire at War Remake mod version 3.0, with many overhauls and new stuffs. Enjoy. While technically still the Lite version (it's feature incomplete as to everything I'm planning) that name confused people on the regular, so here is the "full" version of the mod.
If you enjoy the livestream, please consider supporting the livestream on Patreon here: Patreon.com
This allows me to keep modding and streaming instead of having to find a "real" job, I'd love to keep developing this mod and if the patron support allows it, I'll happily do so.

Install Instructions - (Plagiarized from Thrawn's Revenge instructions and edited to apply for Remake)
====================================================
STEAM:
Right click the EAW-Remake.rar and select "extract here"
Place the mod into C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Star Wars Empire at War\corruption\Mods (Default)
To play the mod via Steam:
-Open Steam and go to Empire at War, right click and select Properties.
-Click Launch Options and add sweaw MODPATH=Mods\EAW-Remake

RETAIL DISK:
Right click the EAW-Remake.zip and select "extract here"

thank you, happy holidays!
I just randomly checked and BOOM, added 45 seconds ago when I clicked. What a wonderful christmas gift. Can't wait for the website to actually allow me to download since it says the servers are overloaded lol. Great work lads.
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
Hallelujah
YESSSS YESSS YESSS
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
yessssss YESSSS YESSSSSSS
awesome thanks
It's finally mine!:D THX! xD
I hope the XPgamers statement that this will be out before Christmas didn't put a strain on you to rush this lite version out(cant wait for Validusia station)!
Merry Xmas!
As far as I am aware they made the claim originally and he was simply quoting it.
30 min download then i start enjoying it :-)
have a merry christmas and a happy new year everyone and the mod team thank you guys!
Big thanks to Jer, Niko, the Dame and all others who pitched in.
Already discovered a bug, crashes now when I attempt to upgrade my space station in conquest as Rebels
But you can launch the mod from inside the new mods option the game on steam has, I see it in the mod list in game as "local" and it launches just fine from there, I haven't run into any problems playing the mod from there or it won't work as well?
Well done on meeting your Christmas deadline lads!
Thanks a lot to all the devs who made this amazing Christmas present possible
OH MYYYYYYYY
First of all, thank you to the devs who got this out on Christmas Eve. I appreciate it. But question. Is there a reason why in Galactic Conquest as the Empire i can only seem to build freighters? I got as far as tech level 3, and upgraded my stations all the way, but i dont see how im supposed to be able to win with nothing but freighters?
Try playing around with the filters on the side. Had to do that myself to make normal ships appear
I did same and it worked
You need to take over Kaut shipyards, once you've successfully taken the system Star Destroyers become unlocked.

OMG YES! Thank you guys so much!!! Best Christmas Present this year ^^
Thank you to all for the amazing mod!
Requesting some assistance trying to get the mod to work I dont see the extract here option when i right click on the mod file, I also dont see the mod folder when i get into the corruption folder of the games program files. any tips would be greatly appreciated. Cant wait to play it, it looks amazing!
You may have to make the Mods folder itself. Just make one and name it Mods. Then plop the EAW-Remake folder in there
( Duplicate, disregard. )
If you're on the steam version, this line: -Click Launch Options and add sweaw MODPATH=Mods\EAW-Remake is incorrect. You need to put this in instead.
swfoc MODPATH=Mods\EAW-Remake
I have installed the game as instructed and I still cannot get the mod to run. I can see the mod on my mods section in the options, but whenever I launch it it just goes to normal forces of corruption. I have done as I was instructed with the Launch Options. Still no luck, any help? I'm using the Star Wars Empire at War Gold Pack on Steam.
Just so everyone's aware and you're having issues installing on the the steam version, this line: -Click Launch Options and add sweaw MODPATH=Mods\EAW-Remake is incorrect.
You need to put this in instead.
swfoc MODPATH=Mods\EAW-Remake
I suspect the mod team just copy and pasted the old instructions and didn't bother updating them for Forces of Corruption.

50 min Till boom time boys!
This is the best Christmas gift ever!
this seems intentional. They stated that the Ground stuff is WIP and I suspect not in this version.
Will it be added in the future?
Manifesto states yes.
Thank you for this amazng mod! thank you for your work spend in! its really a new game now!
SO. two things here..
-something goes wrong with the eclipse when jamming their forces, the game never ends after turning it OFF.
-second the list of ships gets cut off the selection on certain planets. Madalore ships disappear unless certain ships are bought first.
Thank you so so so much for this amazing game!! Its absolutely addicting🙏

Has this version fixed the game crashing when you try to save it on the steam version?
having the same problem here.
Saving during battles is known to cause faulty saves. Don't save during battles, only on the GC map. Also don't overwrite old saves, make a fresh one. This should fix the issue.
This might explain some of my issues. Thanks
Can't load my saves in GC . please help.(i am saving on the GC maps,not in the battle
