EaW: Total Realism v1.1 (gold) - Page 2

kimballkinnison · 03-27-2006, 02:56 PM

Looks to be a top mod, could I just ask about bombing runs though...I see in the changes log that the figure for damage is higher. The bombing runs seemed way too overpowered beforehand so is this even more of an increase??

Any help with what all the bombing run values equate to would be much appreciated, they are the main bone of contention in my multiplayer galactic conquest games!!

Thanks,

Kim

Yes, bombing runs have been slightly increased, but since all units health has also increased, they cannot take out heavy units (ATAT, T4B, M2 and T2B take heavy damage and so on) and buildings (turrets, production facilities) with one pass. Mind that bombing run range has decreased as well.

As for MP, i hope that when both players have the exact same mod installed, then they can play with it online. If not, Torpid told me that they're working towards this mod-support in coming patches (if not compatible already). I really want to play the LAN campaign with my brother too, but with EaW:TR installed, not the original game

Btw, im posting a new thread about the upcoming EaW:TR version 2.0 . Major changes.......stay tuned

Well the LAN campaigns we've been playing are with MistenTH's space realism 3.0 mod installed on both our PCs. Works fine with latest patch 1.03.

Hence the appeal of your mod, as the space battles we have are great but land battles are decidedly in the empire's favour...hopefully this way we'll get the best of both worlds!

Try it out tonight anyway, thanks for the info on bombing runs, if these still feel overpowered I may try to tinker with them a little

YEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Ok ppl.

Little update on the next version.

We redone GC map and this is what you can excpect in the next release.

Now we changed how traveling is working.

In the original game :
Let's say that you have planet A and planet B. In order for your fleet to travel from planet A to planet B, the planet B had to be within the range radius of the planet A.

Meaning that you and AI were able to hop from planet to planet and that the frontline was materilized in very rare occasions.

Now we wiped out such system. In order for you to travel from planet A to planet B two planets must be connected with the hyperspace route. No connection no travel even if the planet B is within radius range of the planet B.

The good thing about this system is that now you have key planets which will give you the possibility to travel from one rim to another or which are simple crossroads.

The Empire is starting with coreworlds under its control whereas rebels are having only the Datooine.

We tryed to stick as close as possible to the SW galaxy map used in movies and SW lore.

Units are all rescaled as well as structures......

Athanasios · 04-02-2006, 04:20 AM

Lobster, version 1.1 of EaW:TR was taken from the site, since the newer version is ready to download. You can check the relevant thread here

Enjoy

SGT Lobster · 04-02-2006, 09:05 PM

again how do u start the mod... do u just play the normal EAW... cuz i tried that and nothing changed... i moved all the files into the rite spot...

i have the newer version...

Athanasios · 04-03-2006, 06:53 AM

Lobster, what do you mean by "nothing changed".....and we guess that the installation instructions are way too intuitive, so, you shouldnt face so many difficulties.

Place folders, run game, play. Simple

SGT Lobster · 04-03-2006, 04:27 PM

nothing changed as in the game is no different from the way it was b4...i place the folders in the rite spot... no change....the first thing i noticed was i had no tie advanced picture and i have lvl 5 tech... and everything else looks the same

Athanasios · 04-03-2006, 04:50 PM

Unistall any previous mods, patch the game (if you havent already) with latest 1.03 and retry. Could tell me exactly which folders and where are you putting them?

SGT Lobster · 04-04-2006, 04:05 PM

awww man i to uninstall every mod... i cant do that... i have like 1000....................... and i dont wich files are which

Master Leffe · 04-04-2006, 04:24 PM

Just take out your XML file (copy and paste elsewhere if you want). Then create a new one and put the TR files in it. Presto!

SGT Lobster · 04-04-2006, 04:50 PM

if i take out the XML files wont my game be ruined?
im afraid if i presss the delete button my gamewill just like die

Athanasios · 04-04-2006, 05:11 PM

Lobster, under Data path there should be NO other XML and ART folders. All mods out there use these too (basically). If you got any other too (like Audio etc), this doesnt matter a lot.

So, delete the current ones you might have (or back them up) and place what TR asks you.

If you'd like to wait, the newer version v2.1 (coming this Friday hopefully) will include an installer to make your life easier.

And no, the game won't die nor you hard disc will be formatted when you delete XML folders

. We do it all the time in our tests.
