DeathSquire36 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Hey, Download the Demo Mod Tools, to extract the XML files from the Config.meg file. When you've extracted the XML files, open the "DATA%XML%FACTIONS" XML file, and look for the lines that show . Adjust them however you like. I'm sorry I forget where I downloaded the Demo Mod Tools, but I'm sure someone can help with that. And yes, the demo tools work on the full version just the same. EDIT: Remember to change the Population cap for both Factions, Imperial and Rebel. Also, I'm pretty sure Lucasarts put the population cap in the tactical battles not to screw with gameplay but to prevent the tremendous lag that would occur if there were hundreds of ships all over the screen. So when you upgrade the pop cap, be sure not to boost it too high unless you have a high end machine. Boosting it up to 40 or 50 should be fine. Unless you have a big rig, it's probably best not to go above that. http://img51.exs.cx/img51/4190/boylecopy0zn.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prophion Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 You need to have something like microsoft office. There is also openoffice, which does the same job and is free. http://www.openoffice.org/ 'All that evil needs to triumph, is for good men to do nothing.'

DeathSquire36 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Notepad or Wordpad will do just fine for editing XML files. Glad I could help. http://img51.exs.cx/img51/4190/boylecopy0zn.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeathSquire36 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Put this in for each faction: 100 That simple. Make sure you do that for every faction in the file, not just the first one. Then just save the file, use the Mod Tools to repackage the .meg file, and test it out ingame. Whatever value you set for will be your new Population Cap in the space tactical mode. Any problems, just post 'em; I'll see what I can do. EDIT: Actually, for me, I didn't edit every faction, just the first two (Empire and Rebels). That should be all you need to do. The other factions aren't playable and never go over the Pop Cap of 40. http://img51.exs.cx/img51/4190/boylecopy0zn.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartan Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Aloha! Can someone post the stock full game file with only this modfication as I can't get the extractor to work for me and I dont want to use one from another mod. I simply want the ship cap removed from the stock file. Thanks in advance. -Spartan "The greatest pain a man can suffer is to have knowledge of much, and power over nothing" - Herodotus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
