these are the commands for starting mods and I assume the folder names inside the mods folder.

its just an example of what folders and commands are used.
for example terminal in the warzone top folder "./src/warzone2100 mod=<modname.wz>" will start a game using what ever mod you choose from the global folder
In terms of one instance of the game running, I don't think so, but I assume you could probably have individual shortcuts to the Warzone app that target each directory (Sorry, I'm not completely familiar with Linux).c++noob wrote:Is there a way to do multiple?
YES, you can run multiple instances of the game, I did it just for fun, trying to play against myself...xShadow421x wrote:Greetings,In terms of one instance of the game running, I don't think so, but I assume you could probably have individual shortcuts to the Warzone app that target each directory (Sorry, I'm not completely familiar with Linux).c++noob wrote:Is there a way to do multiple?
Either way, if your ultimate goal here is to use the mod/s for both campaign and skirmish/multiplayer simultaneously, you would just use the global folder (*applies mods to everything) and then target that directory exclusively as explained before.
Just be aware that you can't play online unless the person/people you play with have identical mods installed when you do this.

In LINUX, after you install Warzone2100, the first time you run it, the game creates a HIDDEN FOLDER, named:
.warzone2100-3.1 or .warzone2100-3.2, depending on which version of the game you are running...
Like if you have version 3.1.X, or 3.2.X installed.... (where the X can be 1 through 5 for v3.1 and 1 or 2 for v3.2)
The hidden folder is created in your HOME (user) directory.
To see hidden folders in Linux, open your HOME (user) folder and press CTRL + H on your keyboard. This will toggle view hidden folders ON and OFF with each CTRL + H key combination pressed....
Open the hidden .warzone2100-3.1 or .warzone2100-3.2 folder and create a subdirectory (a new folder) named "mods" - all lower case characters. Open the newly created "mods" and create 4 more folders inside it, named autoload, global, campaign and multiplay
You wil then copy/paste your mod in the desired folder, example: multiplay, for a multiplay mod, campaign for a campaign mod, etc.
Now open a Terminal and run one of the following commands to launch your mod:Code: Select all
warzone2100 --mod_ca=<NAME-OF-CAMPAIGN-MOD>Code: Select all
warzone2100 --mod_mp=<NAME-OF-MULTIPLAY-MOD>You can create menu entries (Fast Launchers), or add those launchers to the desktop, but I won't get into that here.Code: Select all
warzone2100 --mod=<NAME-OF-GLOBAL-MOD>
PM me if you have questions or need further assistance.
I'm using Linux Mint MATE, various versions or several computers, both from the Mint 17 and Mint 18 series.
