Title: How good are these mods?
Post by: Revanchist on May 21, 2012, 11:23:24 PM: I have been wondering about a couple of other FoC mods. How are they, and are there any problems when you try to have them along with TR?
The two I'm wondering about are:

1) Republic at War
2) Yuuzhan Vong at War

1) Republic at War
You'll need to rename the AI folder it sticks into Forces of Corruption\Data\XML to something else (I just named it RaW when I had it installed) when you're not playing RaW, because otherwise it will interfere with other mods.

2) Yuuzhan Vong at War
This mod hasn't been released yet, so it doesn't interfere at all.

I've installed it on 4 different machines, and it's crashed while loading on every single one of them through multiple attempted redownloads. I've also heard it puts stuff in the main directory so that it can conflict with other mods.

2) One that I look forward to when it's released.

So, I can have more than one mod, but I can only play one at a time?

2) It looks good. I can't wait for it.

Offtopic: Is there really any other (big) mods out? Phoenix Rising, I guess, but I have never gotten it to work.

By ICW, I assume you mean Thrawn's Revange (Imperial Civil War).
