Minor bug fixes, player balance changes and optimized performance, the most important fixes are:

▪ Both games have been converted from 32-bit to 64-bit applications, which will solve many out-of-memory bugs and crashes that players were experiencing.
▪ Multiplayer out-of-sync issues have been addressed, which should improve stability.
▪ There have been numerous gameplay fixes addressing balance and incorrect unit behavior.

For this game, a MOD was created --> Awakening of the rebellion2

The first part was quiet good, but this version becomes the feeling of the good old rebellion...

It is based on Empire at war, so u have ur galaxy in front of u, and can battle in space and land... lots of caracters, lots of different ships...

Basically, GameRanger makes it quick and easy to play your friends online.

It has full lobby support for over 500 different games and demos (including EAW, of course), without the hassles and headaches that usually happen with network connections (eg. routers & firewalls).

I'm really excited to be releasing it, and hope it helps boost the EAW community by allowing people to play that were unable to until now due to problems with opening ports, etc.

You can download it at www.GameRanger.com

I recently got a new computer, which of course came with Microsoft Vista (applause). I installed Empire at War, and it ran fine. I then installed the expansion for EAW: Forces of Corruption. I try to run it and I get an "Exception has occurred" error. I contact Lucasarts and ask "what's the deal?" They tell me that my version of the game, which only came out a little over a year ago isn't compatible with Vista, and I have to buy ANOTHER copy of the two games I ALREADY OWN, called Empire at War: Gold Edition.

Unbelievable! I find it hard to believe that Lucasarts cannot write a patch to make the game I already bought compatible with Vista. It's not like EAW was designed for Windows 95! My other XP games work with Vista, such as Battle for Middle Earth II. And again, Empire at War works for it, but the expansion (Forces of Corruption) doesn't??? What kind of crap is that?

My loathing of all things Lucas has reached a whole new level. Now I wonder, if Rebellion will even run on Vista.

I'm back just for one question, has anyone tried Empire at War. How was it, God or bad ?

I hope I am not repeating an old post, but I tried locking for a topic concerning that game and found none.

Just been playing Starwars - Empire at War for the last week or so and think it is a great game but could have been better! This reminded me of a little flawed gem of a game I played in the 90's called Star Wars Supremacy or Rebellion over in the states. So I searched my room and finally found a highly scratched rebellion CD-ROM at the bottom of my dusty chest of drawers.

I remember this game especially because it had a large encylopedia and a great array of characters to put on missions and command armies and fleets, also the ability to name ships and fleets was there.... something which empire at war could have done.

Also I remember taking great pride in my fleets and being very upset if I lost a capital ship in battle because I became attached to them and they took time to build. This is a feeling Empire at war completly lacks as you can build star destroyers with the click of a finger and the auto names assigned to them just dont do it for me..especially since most of them end up being the same!!

Also a major thing that I felt Empire at War lacked was experiance for troops or ships which have seen alot of combat and again the ability to rename them. Obviously if you created a Regiment of Stormtroopers which developed into a crack fighting force you would want to give it a special name to merit it's elite status, you would then have these guys fighting in all the major battles you encountered..or even just name a squad for a great brave defence of a planet. But even more simply how much better would it be if you could just name you armies to say the 31st Fondar Armoured divsion or your fleet guarding Courscant to the Core Defense Fleet.

Empire would have benifited from a wide array of characters like rebellion aswell again further putting pride in your fleets... how great would it be knowing your prize Star Destroyer or Calamari Cruiser was commanded by Grand Admiral Thrawn or Admiral Akbar rather than just an unnamed officer. Also the fleets and armies would get bonus depending on the type of character in command..... say mabye all Interdictors under Thrawn get a speed and defence bonus ect ect

Empire is a great game, espcially the space battles and obviously more dumbed down than rebellion to hit it's target audiance but wow what a great game you could make my merging ideas from both games into one..... I def think a Rebellion 2 should be made!

Anyone else played both games?, anyone else think a merging between the two would make a for a great complete game?

Thanks.

In short, Thrawn's Revenge is a mod for Star Wars: Empire at War. It will add many playable and non-playable factions, units, gameplay elements, etc. There are four main parts to the mod.

Part One: Empire of the Hand: (Empire at War, then converted to FoC)

Set between the end of the Clone Wars and the Battle of Endor. Empire of the Hand adds, as the name implies, the new playable faction Empire of the Hand as well as expanding on the Empire and Rebel Alliance. Also included is Garm Bel Iblis' Rebel Group.

What is going to happen with Tyber Zann and Silri... esp since Silri has found a Sith army?

Edit:Errrr oppps....... OK=Oh my mother of god horrible!

Could anyone maybe make some recommendations as to how I can accomplish this? I would also need some tutorials, as again I am completely new to this.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

The Imperial Security Squandron (ISS) has now taken over Empire at War. We are looking for more members to fill the leadership ranks in the empire. Our temperary command post can be found at http://isshq.9fd.net/ and are Holonet(forum) can also be found at http://isshq.7.forumer.com/.

If you wish to ask questions or would like to enlist please go to are Holonet. Until the War has started there will be no tryouts for enlistment other then general questions.

~Thanks~

I think this goes here. There is no clan forum for EAW.

Okey, we kept silence for quite long while working hard in the backround to boost up the already preferred modification "Empire at War: Total Realism". Due to the wide appeal we decided to get our hands even more dirty and steal some precious free time from our lives to bring you the mod you were asking for.

Anyway, to stop the babbling and get into the point, EaW:TR v2.0 will be uploaded (hopefully) this Saturday, 1/4/2006 (no, we're not liing ) featuring a wide range of new enhancements, from a minor footprint re-scalling to a whole re-configuration of ground & space combat and Galactic Conquest experience.

Below i post some parts of the extensive readme file. Stay tuned in topic, since until Saturday, ill post the images you will be asking for and even more.

So, get ready, load your patience, excercise with some veterans out there, and then come face the real devastating power of some marching ATAT & Star Destroyers, or fulfil your thirst for freeding up the galaxy with more advanced tactics than ever before !

PS: Mind that since the text below is directly copied from a text file, the organisation doesn't look as in the text file; i did my best to make it look nice in this thread, but in the original readme file it's just "as meant to be".

-------------------------------------------------------

"Empire at War: Total Realism" mod (EaW:TR from now on) enhances "Star Wars: Empire at War" original game's realism

and gameplay features on Ground, Space and Galactic Conquest. It was developed for those that wished to lay down more

strategies on the battlefield than amass an overwhelming "doom" force and eradicate everything in their pass.

 

Realism enhancements were based on real-life examples, such as armor penetration law and a talor-made "food chain"

among several classes of units, while Gameplay enhancements had as purpose to provide a challenging, thrilling

real-time-strategy game by balancing all aspects of the game that contribute to this aim. Note that when we mean

"balancing" the game we mean implementing the correct imbalances and not amplify the "scissors-rock-paper" base.

 

Thus, what would you expect to see from this mod?

 

------------------------------------------------------------

||| GALACTIC MAP & MISCELLANEOUS modifications |||

------------------------------------------------------------

 

[*] A brand new re-designed Galactic Map, Star Wars lore based, with strategic "choke-points", trade routes,

hyperspace lanes, apparent core & outer rim worlds and way more, making Galactic Conquest THE challenge.

 

[*] Add to the above GC boost-up, the re-configuration of all buildings & units costs. No more the "every planet and a stronghold"

or the famous "doom-fleet"; you want many Star Destroyers, Mon Calamaris and MKII Frigates? Put the hand deeply in the wallet first...

I have a friend who bought Empire at War in the Best of PC set, and I proposed that if he let me borrow the game to instal it, I'd buy Forces of Corruption, and hopefully we could both use the expansion pack and the game, all for the price of only buying one game each. Will it work?

Please help me

it still hasnt come in the mail. all the other winners dont have there copies either.

But you CAN give names to your vessels if it works.

There are small textfiles installed on your comp listing shipnames per type. You can put extra names in those files to add more names to the whole.

Not very specific but at least it diminishes the chances of having 2 ships with the same name.
