Title: Star Wars: Rebellion
Post by: Brutoni on November 02, 2015, 04:57:24 AM
Hey guys,

Just a shout out. Anyone playing Star Wars: Rebellion (Supremacy if in UK) now that it is out on GoG? I've picked it up and while fun I can't get Rebellion reloaded to work (lack of disk!) and the AI is........ basic. However it was always fun against humans and I am wondering if anyone is around who fancies trying to make a few games work?

I actually still play the GOG version as well.  However, it just takes sooooooooo long to play, that I'm not sure I'd have enough time to actually try to play a whole game with someone.

This is my concern as well... I'm not sure I want to promise that level of investment. :(

Fair one! It is definitely not a short game.

Has anyone managed to make rebellion reloaded work with the GoG version?

Haven't tried myself, might attempt tonight simply since you asked and I should have time while I wait to get my VCE's from my instructor.

VCE's?

Yeah I basically fall down in that rebed thinks the install is a partial install without encyclopaedia and card DLLs. Therefore you can't install the mod due to the huge amount of card and model changes it makes. Not found a work around yet. I suspect using a disk image to create a virtual disk would work.... except I have no disk lol.

Or perhaps I have just been a numpty and done something wrong. I am running Windows 8.1 which does complicate things a little but at least the GoG version runs relatively stable on it.
