Someone posted how to re-enable the original EAW campaigns to work with the new FoC expansion rather easy with renaming the file 'Single Player Galactic Campaign' file XML. I just forgot where I read it at here on this forum....  [Read More]

If the AI is controling the Garm, I used plain citizens to kill him. I massed a bunch onto him, he use his special ability which drains his shields, then a backup contigent of citizens ran up and fired on his exposed shield hard point. Rinse and repe...  [Read More]

ZC is a decent concept, but they seem to be overpowered. The Corruption and endless Sabotage is annoying. The script will allow you to cancel the AI from doing one of either of these two things, or both. I think the AI cheats when it comes to money...  [Read More]

Gallofree is bugged in GC as it is now. You can fix the XML mistake so it will work in GC. I did and I can play with it just fine. IF you meant bugged as you cannot build it after you steal it for FoC version 1.0: yes. But it is fixeable and I mad...  [Read More]

Luke is in the FoC expansion. Mara and Kyle is not in the Foc GC maps AFAIK. I saw Kyle as the Rebels in the Skirmish maps. I have not seen the Gallofree transport unit for the Rebels yet in GC mode, only Skirmish. Even though R2D2 can steal the...  [Read More]

Empire vs Rebel only Mod. for the Equal Footing GC map. http://rapidshare.com/files/5011285/Empire_Rebel_gc.zip.html I do find it interesting how the AI expands, and waits for you to catch up, or how big a starbase it will attack on Medium. I hope...  [Read More]

That will work. Plus you must manually add in Pirates to slow down the AI land grab. I have finished a beta version if you want to try. For some reason I had a problem with uploading it to Rapidshare. It is the above mention file with pirates added,...  [Read More]

OK, let me see what I can do. I assume out of the five or so maps, the big one with 55 planets. Plus, depending upon which side you play, the initial planet distrubution is different. Example, playing the Empire in Origin of Corruption GC mode you s...  [Read More]

Yes, i made a full extraction of the XML and all. You can easily disable any one of the faction in the Campaign_GC.xml file. Just assign the AI player for that faction as none. Then remove all pre-games units for that faction from the xml. I find...  [Read More]

I notice (and in the XML) that if the Consortium corrupts your planet, your unit are 10% cheaper to produce (playing the Empire). I thought that corruption was to make production cost higher, not cheaper:rolleyes:? I notice it does change productio...  [Read More]

Some of the FoC XML files do that to me too if you make any changes to them. They have some real syntax errors in them. I found out using a hex editor to edit the file works, while using wordpad causes thse odd files to puke. Try out Rouge_Squadron...  [Read More]

There are significant changes. Some basic mods will work such as the Free Camera, but a proper one needs to be made so that the bigger maps distances visuals will show in game. So basically, 90% + mods will not work....  [Read More]
