[MOD] Fall from Heaven II

[Chalid]

@Old Saves: No they wont work with 0.12

@Patches: Thats what i have told Kael too. Most of the things do not change. I would prefer if he would offer an "Upgrade" without the terrain, the introduction screens (those that load at the beginning), leaderheads and music. Of course offering such an upgrade would need that the people can copy the files themself but i am sure most can

Patch a posted to address an editor problem that causes some units to have incorrect resource requirements.

This is a very very beta version for playtesting. Players looking for a less changing codebase probably want to play Fall from Heaven I.

In general I release patchs to fix problems and full releases when new elements are added to the game (if i patch in new elements i risk introducing ctd's which frustrate everyone and take a lot of time to track down). The general plan is for a new release every 2 weeks, though I will patch faster than that if serious problems are encountered.

Since FfH2 has only been out for beta for 2 weeks that means we have lots of issues to work on and lots of versions to go through. Im hoping that this becomes better over time.

I dont have a problem releasing a "thin" version of the mod without some of the big music and art resources but that will only be done with a release version, not with the betas we are going through (doing that for each beta version will take up time I would rather spend fixing problems).

Kael and Crew,

The mod (.11) is fantastic, but the download for the new one is not working. I am getting some kind of InstaSearch Finder page instead...any suggestions?

No, FallfromHeaven2012a.exe already has the patch merged.

Where do i load the patch? (Which folder in FfH2)

 

[PeterW78]

Instead of downloading the patch can I just down load the whole new version?

 

[Kael]

Yes, in fact you have to download the whole 0.12 version (the patch is for those few who downloaded 0.12 before 0.12 was available).

What is the preferred map/scenerio to use for this mod? I want the best results in a Huge/Large, 13/14 (and sometimes up to 18) civ type quick game??
