DarthFelth Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 or you could extract the big file do your hw2 data folder, extract the exe's to you desktop, erm in you normal short it should read   "C:\Program Files\Sierra\Homeworld2\Bin\Release\Homeworld2.exe" -overrideBigfile (think thats more for maps, just add it anyways to be on the safe side http://www.thegamingunion.co.uk/Forum/ubb/conquestBanner.jpgand come visit Galactic Conquest Online Website here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsterXiphos Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 If that shortcut doesn't work, change it to: "D:\Program Files\Sierra\Homeworld2\Bin\Release\Homeworld2.exe" -mod HW2SWmod-beta-v0.26-TEST.big -luatrace 'course, change the path if it's not the same, and remember the quotes.

DarthFelth Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 heh, well, from what evillie told me, if it wernt in it present formate, it would be like 250mb, however, after you extract it, it dosnt increase in size to much, it would be alot more worth it if the bloody resourcing worked right http://www.thegamingunion.co.uk/Forum/ubb/conquestBanner.jpgand come visit Galactic Conquest Online Website here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWR Staff - Executive Evaders99 Posted April 16, 2004 SWR Staff - Executive Share Posted April 16, 2004 Even the most compressed formats yield a 50 meg file. I've tried Zip, Rar, Sitx, Gz, and others. Its a lot of data to edit.. much more than Rebellion because there are full models and so forth.

Cain Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 ....Did you tryed best on winrar ?!...maybe some MB less ?! - The Trivium Organization - Community Manager -- Petroglyph Fan Forums - CoAdmin & Human Resources Manager - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthFelth Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 well irs in big file format which is what it the game uses, i dare say he could use winace, if he has it http://www.thegamingunion.co.uk/Forum/ubb/conquestBanner.jpgand come visit Galactic Conquest Online Website here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cain Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 There is no way I could download 54 Mb at home   Maybe i will wait for the final version and then take 30 diskets and go to a internet caffe and try to convince the dude in charge there to let me use them ore writte a CD ?   Maybe he could use an RebEd archive type ?! but usualy the "best" compres type on winrar is better than the zip one PS...also he can use the selfextract edit option and make the archive go where it wants , overwritte all that it wants ,even start a program after or chose a ico for the download - The Trivium Organization - Community Manager -- Petroglyph Fan Forums - CoAdmin & Human Resources Manager - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trejiuvanat Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 A self extractor has the problem that not everyone has installed the game in the same place. For instance someone running a spanish OS (like me) will have the progs installed in Archivos de Programa instead in Program Files. A Rar file is probably the best choice! http://www.swrebellion.com/~jahled/Trej/banner.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthFelth Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 hmm, dunno much about RebEd so i doubt many people will have it eaither, i dount anything would knock more than like 5megs of it ( then again i guess that depedns on yay connection) http://www.thegamingunion.co.uk/Forum/ubb/conquestBanner.jpgand come visit Galactic Conquest Online Website here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWR Staff - Executive Evaders99 Posted April 17, 2004 SWR Staff - Executive Share Posted April 17, 2004 I've tried Zip, Rar, Sitx, Gz, and others. Its a lot of data to edit.. much more than Rebellion because there are full models and so forth. The quality on Homeworld 2 models is much better than the Rebellion's. There is also a lot of other files that need to be editted to make them run in the game. So there really is no way to compress any further than it already is. I expect this size will continue to increase as Eville progresses on this mod. Best bet: find someone to download it for you and burn onto a CD.

DarthFelth Posted April 18, 2004 Share Posted April 18, 2004 aside the fact you can actualy move your ships in a 3d battlefield, attacking from above, below, head on, behind, the ships like the ISD being like 6000 polied unlike in rebellion anything else http://www.thegamingunion.co.uk/Forum/ubb/conquestBanner.jpgand come visit Galactic Conquest Online Website here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cain Posted April 18, 2004 Share Posted April 18, 2004 ...hmmmm...btw what is the difference betwen the H2 Mod and the Newrebellion H1 Mod ? - The Trivium Organization - Community Manager -- Petroglyph Fan Forums - CoAdmin & Human Resources Manager - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthFelth Posted April 18, 2004 Share Posted April 18, 2004 basicly the hw1 engine is alot more limiting, you are restricted to replacing ships, and only certain ships can go into certain slots, he2 allows you to add as many ships and as many races as you can. hw1 mod is alot more complete, however there is only so much than can be done with hw1 http://www.thegamingunion.co.uk/Forum/ubb/conquestBanner.jpgand come visit Galactic Conquest Online Website here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cain Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 Ok....the dudes from NR have tools for mod .... can you guys do something like RebEd ? - The Trivium Organization - Community Manager -- Petroglyph Fan Forums - CoAdmin & Human Resources Manager - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthFelth Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 i wanna know what this thing about RebEd is cos its starting to worry me You dont need RebE type thing for the hw1 mod as its is alot smaller mate, trust me http://www.thegamingunion.co.uk/Forum/ubb/conquestBanner.jpgand come visit Galactic Conquest Online Website here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cain Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 Well I was curious if the HW 2 mod has a Mod package (Tools) I will like to make new textures for the ships .....from what i've seen in the screenshots.... - The Trivium Organization - Community Manager -- Petroglyph Fan Forums - CoAdmin & Human Resources Manager - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
