Warzone 2100 Forums

Aims
When playing over and over again you notice that some weapons are just more or less useless or are "very very very special purpose"-weapons while others are just weak and won't harm anything (Assault Cannon ;X).

So the mod aims at creating a balance in the game so every weapon is useful. The difference between AT- and AP-weapons should be more noticeable.. so don't try to kill two Lancer-Cyborgs with a Lancer-Cobra-Tracks.

Further information
The zip-archive contains two detailed readmes, one in English and one in German. The readme-files are in HTML-format and have two CSS-files (style-files), one for screen and one for print, so you can easily print the whole readme from within your browser. The print-style-sheet removes all colours and replaces them with symbols so even people with BW-printers can print the readme.

I strongly recommend to read the readme, at least the first part which is not about all the changes I applied to the game. I stopped counting, but there should be some 250 changes to original values.

Get the mod! But where?
http://files.warzone2100.de/index.php?dir=mods%2F and download the file "kreuvf_rebalancing_20070826.zip"

This is the second published version of my Rebalancing-Mod. It works with 2.0.7 and I do not plan to publish a trunk-version of it. The mod is published under the GPLv2.

Best balancing mod ever

I've installed this mod, We'll give it a try soon. I'll post some feedback here later

[red]It's mandatory to run this mod with a commandline parameter???[/red]

Tell me if it's correct or not, ok 

E.g:

"C:\Program Files\Warzone 2100\warzone2100.exe" mod_mp kreuvf_rebalancing_20070805.wz

I think this is correct:

C:\Program Files\Warzone 2100\warzone2100.exe" --mod_mp kreuvf_rebalancing_20070805.wz

(notice the '--')

Thanks very much 

I've forgotten the "--", and without it, the mod won't work

So it's will be something like this, 'cause the mod is now working to me

C:\Program Files\Warzone 2100\warzone2100.exe" --mod_mp kreuvf_rebalancing_20070805.wz

Sorry about that mistake.

Cheers

Wohooo, I am really looking forward for this one. You really did a great job on the last balancing mod.

Thanks for the feedback so far. Sorry, that I didn't include better instructions for starting the mod in the readme -- it's on the to-do-list now.

By now I am uncertain if it will be necessary to create a balancing mod for 2.1 as I think that Troman (it's mainly him afaik) does a great job rebalancing the game.

Perhaps the two of you could work together on it! I think it would be a waste to not make us of your experience with balancing !

Actually I do comment on some stuff Troman does and I feel that it's enough. As I already said Troman (and of course there are other developers he talks to as well) does a great job rebalancing the game and does it in a way I did this mod, too: By using self-made formulas and calculations.

Hey, does mod work with 2.0.10?

Newbie question, but let's help him:

The Rebalancing Mod works on the 2.0.x Version of the Warzone 2100 (e.g: 2.0.6, 2.0.7, 2.0.8, 2.0.10, etc)

DO NOT forget to run the Warzone in commandline parameter:

It depends of the version of the mod you have downloaded

C:\Program Files\Warzone 2100\warzone2100.exe" --mod_mp kreuvf_rebalancing_20070826.wz

C:\Program Files\Warzone 2100\warzone2100.exe" --mod_mp kreuvf_rebalancing_20070805.wz

It doesn't work in the 2.1 Beta version of the WZ, you'll only receive a crash game

Hope i've help you

Cheers
