mbjock17 Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 I have downloaded warlords, but I don't get it a zip file, I only get it as .exe file. Is that is how it is supposed to be or did I screw it up somehow. Because my .big file that gets extracted is WARLORDSV0.29.big only nothing else. Can somone please help me figure out what went wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobandrubert Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 No the .exe is new.The sad thing is that the post I made to help install has no meaning anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamakazi Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 I put the .big in the data folder, how do I run the mod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwedhrin Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 i had the same problem, all i get out of the mod package is the .big file, no shorcuts, or anything. so, could someone please deatail what exactly should be in the "start in" and "target" boxes of the shorcut? so that someone who didn't get them could recreate them?

bobandrubert Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 If there is no shortcuts then what is in start in and target does not matter. Target:"C:\Program Files\Sierra\Homeworld2\Bin\Release\Homeworld2.exe" -mod HW2SW_WARLORDS_BETA_V0.29_TEST.Big -luatrace Start in;"C:\Program Files\Sierra\Homeworld2\Bin\Release" Run as "Homeworld2.exe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwedhrin Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 it still doesn't work. i put the .big file in the right place, i put the music in, and it stilll doesn't work. from what i have heard in the forums, there should be another gametype int eh skirmish screen. but that doesn't come up for me.

Kamakazi Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 Ok i got it figured out now. Heres what I did for the .exe: 1.Put the .big file in the Data folder.2.Right Click on the desktop icon for Homeworld2 and select properties.3.As the target type: "C:\Program Files\Sierra\Homeworld2\Bin\Release\Homeworld2.exe" -mod WARLORDSV0.29.big -luatrace4.As the Start in type: "C:\Program Files\Sierra\Homeworld2"5.Click Apply6.Double click the icon to run the game and go to Player vs CPU. Click the drop down for game types and it should say Warlords. Hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
