@Bucky699 It is real easy. Just open the UniqueUnits.xml with a text editor such as word pad. Yo will see stuff that is readable. Search for "Jedi_Cruiser_R" that is the Rebel one. Below that about page down is something like <credit co...  [Read More]

The shutter shield did not really work in th edemo. It did not stop reinforcements from landing, it did stop a bombing run. The regular shield can be upgraded to a particle shield to stop all projectiles. The one good thing about having the Shutter...  [Read More]

I would like a longer more Epic feel. I want smaller fleets more tougher ships that last longer so tactics would be of use. It is too arcadish and just a bum rush tactic. Space travel should be way slower. It would take a quite a bit of time to make...  [Read More]

Technically, it is all over the place. Much of it self evident. Such as SINGLPLAYERCAMPAIGN.xml or SCRIPTS/STORY/EP_01_M3REBEL.xml and txt files. It is not in one spot. Look at the EAW_XML file for download here in the thread "Expanded XML Re...  [Read More]

credits accummulation factor I have not tested. It is 0.95 for Rebels and 0.85 for Empire faction. I think it may only apply to Skirmish games though. So it will not work in Galactic Conquest? In GC mode, the income is computed per day, so I do not...  [Read More]

The patch 1.2 does not affect the config.meg files, or the patch.meg file or any XML. It is purely for multiplayer. So the 1.1 XML and 1.2 XML is the same. EDIT: Sorry it does change a very bit tag number of the TEXT for multiplayer dialog message...  [Read More]
