God Emporer: Need help

javaslinger · #1 April 30th, 2001, 04:00 AM

I have 2 questions. First, which is the newest Version of your mod? That works with patch 1.35?

And second, I can't seem to find clear directions of how to install it. I want to install it so that it works with the newest Modpack which I've correctly installed.

Thanks,

Ken

Javaslinger,
V135c is the latest but all my v135 KlingRom Versions are compatible with patch 5 (v1.35).

The EMP files go into the SE4/Empires directory, the Klingon and Romulan files go into their SE4/Pictures/Races/Romulan(or Klingon) directory and the TechArea and Components files go into the SE4/Data directory.
(I think that covers everything).

Note that I have two variants available, a "basic" Version, which only includes the race files, and a Destroyer/Point Defence Version (which also includes a shortened Research queue for the AI of 2 items) which includes TechArea and Components files too.

Hope this helps,
Regards,
God Emperor

OK, now if you could just explain to me which variant is which. I would like to use the most comprenensive variant. ie the one that makes the best game.

I'm confused at this point which one I have....

All I know is the one I have is the one with 1.35 attached to the title.... (I think...)

Thanks,

Ken

Ken,
The two variants available are KlingRom_v135c and KlingRom_basicv135c.

I prefer to play with KlingRom_v135c because my experience is that the AI does better when it starts off with Point Defence, the filler techs and destroyers (necessary to mount sufficient point defence so that they are not as susceptible to the missile dance).

Missiles can still be effective against the AI but you have to deploy more of them.

Regards,
Neil

PS; As a lot of people prefer the basic game though and dont like their TechAreas files altered, I greated the basic KlingRom set which uses modified Research and ship design (DesignCreation) files.
