Galactic Conquest Mod V1.2
---------------------------
by Troop5

Empire at War Demo Mod
----------------------

This Mod lets you play Rebels and battle the Empire across the Entire Galaxy
in Space or Land.

In addition to starting on hoth, you will have Dantooine and Tatooine. On some planets you can find Heros (Red Squadron, Han-Chewie, Admiral ackbar, etc.) divided among your planets. You can build Mon Calamari Cruisers, A-wings, Marauder Cruisers, etc. The Empire of course has a few Heros of their own.

I would recommend you play this mod on the slowest speed setting, otherwise you might get overwhelmed by attacking Imperials.


Have Fun. :)

Shouldnt be any crashes
Although sometimes the game slows sometimes when you use the speed up function, probably because the Imps are building many things.

Let me know if you find a bug.

the mod is gd but we really really need a save game mod! i cant conqour the galaxy in an afternoon!

Thanks Jamie!

Vader, i'm not sure its possible to enable saving, i'll look into it.

thanks would be g8 if u found a way

First off, let me say that this is my favorite demo mod. Next, a question which is killing me:why isn't the hypervelocity gun available for construction by the Empire, as it is in most other mods?

Didnt think it was needed since i didnt include the empire as a playable faction in v1.2. I enabled it in v1.3 where you can play as the Empire.

Installation

Just extract folders to Gamedata/Data

It is defaulted to play as the Empire

If you want to play as the Rebellion, use the folder i included called Rebel Files
and put the contents into Gamedata/Data/Xml after you extracted everything else.



----
Bugs
----

Although sometimes the game slows sometimes when you use the speed up function,
probably because the AI is building many things. I would recommend normal speed
settings.

I did catch a bug, when you have more than one Star Destroyer and use the Tractor
Beam on the same ship the game crashes. I think its a game flaw, i never touched
the properties of the Tractor Beam. So just try to remember not to do that.

As always let me know if you find a bug.

Try to stick to one thread. If you updated simply edit your first post and change the thread title. Thanks!

the hypervelocity gun wont fire but still good

where do I extract the swmod.exe file? I put it into my gamedate/date and gamedate... But it still doesn't work. Any help would be nice. Thanks in advance.

I decided to take a quick looksee and noticed some things on the Empire side.
Player can build a Power Generator: This isn't required, one is automatically given on the Tatooine land map.
Player can build Comm Array planet side: This structure does nothing in Campaign mode.

BTW does Empire have any way to counter Speeders besides building AA turrets when defending/invading?

EDIT: Tehe, I missed the thing bout the hacked exe in the readme. Bad Grey_Ghost bad! :jab:
What I said about the Comm Array and Power Generator still stands though.

actually, you can build those turbo lasers, I have been able to do all of this, as for the Speeders I have not found a way still, unless the At-At might be able. I have been able to build an officer academy, are you sure you are using swmod.exe?

Well Darth_Extas without swmod.exe my game will crash evrytime when il try to run normal sweaw.exe so i quess evryone have same are they?

actually, I have been able to run the demo without it crashing everytime, I have as well been able to modify the unit companys to have what I want. The Problems that Grey_Ghost was describing were specific to without swmod.exe since it can run without the mod(i.e. swmod.exe).

Hi and thnx for a good mod but it still gets an exception while playing as empire.

please!
where do i get binkw32.dll i havnt got it and it means my swmod.exe wont work

please!
where do i get binkw32.dll i havnt got it and it means my swmod.exe wont work


the binkw file should be in the lucasasarts/empire at war/gamedata ....if not reinstall the demo

JUST GO TO the GAMEDATA folder STOP THERE AND paste THE SWMOD.EXE THERE......not in data and not in xml folder....need i say more :P

maybe you and Bryant should work on this together, lol

I think I found a bug. When playing as Imperials, I got caught in a space battle over one of my planets. I had already built a Hypervelocity Gun, but when I went into the battle, the Hypervelocity Gun icon thing wouldnt load, or fire. It was just shaded out. If this was explained in a different version, then sorry for bothering you with this

oh, I almost forgot. I also found that the Rebels can build two Ben Kenobi's (Home One's), possibly more

hey i can seem to build research facilities i use swmod.exe :P but i cant seem to build them :S realy strange also i cant build stardestroyers :S

Ok for the problems, the hypervelocity gun work work on the new maps. I dont know how to edit the maps, so in the meantime you could replace the planets.xml with the one from my 1.3 version. That way it will use the same space map that the hypervelocity gun worked in.

For the duplicate heros, i have worked on limiting the creation of heros to one, but no matter what i did, you still could create a second after the first hero perished, possibly more.
There were references to build limits in the xmls, but nothing i did could force limit creation to 1.

The star destroyers can only be build on 4 planets. See the Readme file.

As for speeders, i will look at them, i know i fought them as the imperials, it was pretty cool, and AT-AT's can take them down. I dont believe i made any counters besides AT-ATs. I would make more counters, but as for modding the demo i am done.

The errors you guys are getting, i dont have a clue, as i can say it delete everything and start over.

Once we get our hands on the full game, and more modding tools come out i cant wait to see the great mods that will come out. I hope you guys enjoyed this demo mod i put together, it was nice to share what we modders did.

Thanks to everyone.
