Ghostly_Substance Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Its a "Modification" for the game and you'll have to download it once it comes out after EAW.

Darkmark Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I aught to point out you don't have to download it. You only really need to download Legacy if you like the things it has to offer and think they'd be in line with how you'd actually like the game. Â Considering it will offer an expanded timeline and ships we all know and love, lots of people on the forums will be sure to install it. If you haven't yet seen the models etc that their team has built, I recommend a look at them.

Foshjedi2004 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Ok. Legacy at War is a Mod which takes over from where Empire at war finishes. We will have TIE defenders up to the Yv Incursion go to Legacy of War for more info. http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa197/knivesdamaster/tags/sith_omguserbar_member.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggernaut1985 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Its an Expansion mod for Empire at War. You don't have to get it, its just a mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gen.Vader Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 which brings me to a questionim not familiar with huge game altering mods besides the customs on bnet, but with mods as big as this, would the mod totally override the current data so it would be set in ROTJ-EU, and i couldnt go back to the pre ANH data without uninstalling the game?

Juggernaut1985 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Typically you'd simply have to remove the mod to play the game again.  While true, a mod overrides the normal game, a mod does not replace game files. Instead the game reads the mod files in preference to the normal files. See? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostly_Substance Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I liked Battlefield 1942/Vietnam/2 how they dealed with their mods. Also look at Homeworld 2 it has its own icon and I can still play the original and Star Wars mod x2 If this does it C&C Style and overrides everything i'd be ticked because i've been spoiled by them two games. -One Empire falls another riseshttp://myanimelist.net/signature/EuroSubstance.png http://miniprofile.xfire.com/bg/os/type/2/ghostlysubstance.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naja Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Alright, just for clarification:Â Is Legacy of War going to first correct EaW's omission of RoTJ type units (like the SSD, Carracks, Interceptors, Lancers, etc) before it leaps into the New Republic-era EU?? Â If it indeed patches this up first, will it release it first, or will it be an optional part along with the entire Legacy of War release?

Juggernaut1985 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Since the mod will release in stages, then yes it would patch up what Petro left out first. Release 1 might look like this: Empire and Rebel units addedCamapign expanded to cover Ep 5 and 6New Republic, Imperial Remanant added alsoThrawn and Cloned Emperor Campaign bits added to the end of the Campaign(we'd put the stuff in between Ep 6 and Thrawn in later) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naja Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 And someone who downloaded it could skip the Remnant/New Republic/Thrawn stuff, so that he could just only play as the Rebels or Imps, right? The only difference between it and vanilla EaW could be the existence of the other Imp/Reb units, and the campaign going to Episode 6? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggernaut1985 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I don't see how its such a hard concept to understand but oh well. I might as well make a mini mod what wil take the LoW stuff but only have the Trilogy stuff in it for the people who don't want the EU stuff.

Foshjedi2004 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 So what exactly is the Problem Naja?? What do you not understand? http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa197/knivesdamaster/tags/sith_omguserbar_member.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makwu Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Alright, just for clarification: Is Legacy of War going to first correct EaW's omission of RoTJ type units (like the SSD, Carracks, Interceptors, Lancers, etc) before it leaps into the New Republic-era EU??  If it indeed patches this up first, will it release it first, or will it be an optional part along with the entire Legacy of War release? What he is asking is this: Can Legacy of War be used to "only" add the units he wants up until ROTJ. Or does he "have" to use all the units Legacy of War will add. The answer is, you have to use all the units. There might be somebody else who makes a "EAW Done Right - Reality Mod" which will simply add all the units up until ROTJ. That is not what Legacy of war is about. They have a much more expansive goal and they are doing a great job of it. Legacy of War is not an EAW fix, its a addon with a new compelling story line, many new EU units, and likely some other tweaks. It will not be EAW anymore. It will be EAW - Legacy of War.

Juggernaut1985 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I'm officially announcing now that I am going to create a mini-mod which will only have the Ep 5 and 6 things in it+ whatever EaW leaves out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makwu Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Bravo. I'll petition LEC to cut you a paycheck for doing their work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggernaut1985 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 No paycheck for me, I'd ask for a job doing something. As for the mini-mod, I guess it wouldn't include much becuase we aren't missing all that much but a few ships and stuff. But hey it'll be good for those who just want the trilogy stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hey it'll be good for those who just want the trilogy stuff. Agreed. You only have about 8 ships to model/skin. I'm sure you'll have them all ready to go long before the game gets released. Thanks Jug, many of us appreciate the work you guys are doing for everybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggernaut1985 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 No skin off my back. I'm just glad people would really support this small mod and it not be made for nothing. I do have a concern over the Petro ships made becuase they are not in the trilogy so do you make a mod to just add stuff in or do you also remove things to make it more like the trilogy but still keeping it balanced?  I guess its time for a poll.

Gen.Vader Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 okay so for LoW i cant have the mod in and the option to play the original game at the same time, need to uninstall the mod to get original ships and stuff right? just clarifying.

Juggernaut1985 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 correct unless Petro does what Dawn of War did and have a mod switcher which automatically activates a mod/deactivates it whenever you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
