Swaps all of the units and visual effects around so that all three factions can be played. The balance changes included in the mod address numerous long standing complaints about the original game while the faction swap provides a fresh experience to the gameplay. The mod has been built from scratch with full compatibility on all maps and missions in mind: Any map that worked with the original game will work with this mod. The campaign can also be played either as it was in the original (with the new balance changes included), or by using the previously inaccessible Terran units instead.

Report RSS Version 3 Nearly Finished

Version 3 of the Reversal Mod is nearly done and ready for release. Aside from the gameplay changes, a new user-friendly launcher program is also in the works.

Posted by on

As the title says, the long-awaited and much needed Version 3 of the mod is almost ready for public release. It wasn't originally going to happen and it has been two years, but looking back I have to say the new version makes my old ones look amateur and unfinished by comparison. Game balance feels spot on now, not to mention all of the graphical improvements I wish I could have made back during the first release.

As of this writing the gameplay and graphical changes have been completed and only some more thorough testing remains to be done. The biggest remaining hurdle is working on getting a launcher program made so that you folks won't have to fight with those archaic .bat files anymore. I'm also planning to package this stuff into a proper installer, so hopefully once its done the only steps needed to play the mod beyond installing and patching your game will be to run the mod setup, start the launcher and select which mode to play on. As a quick note, the launcher will be optional and not required to run the mod. It should just make getting started much more user friendly.

I'm planning to release as soon as everything is wrapped up. Hopefully that will be within the next couple of weeks or by the end of the month at the latest. It depends on how quickly I can learn some basic GUI programming!

In the mean time there are a bunch of new screenshots and I've updated the official change list, so go check those out if you haven't already.
