EaW and FoC Mods / How to edit game files for small adjustments and enhancements.
« on: April 03, 2013, 01:45:34 AM »
Okay I first picked up this game in 2006 and Corruption in 2007, but then the discs were destroyed and I later picked up the Steam version, so I am asking about the Steam version.
I would like to find the game files so I can modify the game directly myself. Namely I would like to adjust accuracy, firing speed, range, etc for various land and space units. I would also like the Z-95 Headhunter Squadrons buildable for the Rebels, and the Venator Cruiser buildable for the Empire during Galactic Conquest mode. I can't find the XML files anywhere to be able to perform these tasks. (I know the Venator is somewhere in the code because it is directly referenced in the game itself.)
However there is something additional I would like to do that I think is beyond tweaking the files. I would like to give the Mon Calamari Star Cruiser, and Home One, hangar bays with limited air support. To me it makes sense that these two units be equipped with air support with them, because in every other story they have hangars.
This is for the original Empire At War, not Forces of Corruption. I posed this same question on Steam but the community told me to come here.
EDIT: I would also like to raise the population caps in space battles to 60.
