Limiting the tech in MP

Post by Im_Useless »

hi, kinda new to this, and as my username suggests im useless :P

i was wondering if anyone could help me out as i was wanting to limit my skirmish games to T1 tech for my own amusement. The problem i have is that i have no aptitude for modding or such, and was wondering if anyone here would be kind enough to help me out. I have searched the forums and unfortunately, i came up with nothing about this or a mod that would do the same thing.

quick edit, if this is posted in the wrong forum, i apologise, i couldnt think of where else to ask this

Kind Regards, Keith

Here is a pretty old example you missed (yeah, no idea how to find it via forum search): viewtopic.php?f=49&t=1985 (probably not working on a recent version). Another example: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=7502

Anyway, the idea is to remove things from prresearch.txt (of mp.wz) - a file that describes the tech dependencies, forming the tech tree.
