Yeah so I downloaded those files and moved it to the Data folder of my Homeworld 2 Folder. My version is 1.1 and I'm trying to get the shortcut to actually work.

 

"“C:Homeworld2BinReleaseHomeworld2.exe” -mod Planetpack.Big,SWSOUND.Big,

SWMUSIC.Big,GENHODS.Big,PLATHODS.Big,IMPHODS.Big,REBHODS.Big,

PIRHODS.Big,CORE.Big -luatrace -hardwareCursor" i

 

Is on this page: http://warlords.swrebellion.com/wp/?p=9

 

I copied and pasted it into my Target shortcut but it keeps saying that it's not valid and make sure it's path is correct or something. Am I doing something wrong here?

the first part of the shortcut should look like this, INCLUDING QUOTES

 

"C:\Program Files\Sierra\Homeworld2\Bin\Release\Homeworld2.exe"

 

 

there is then a space, then:

 

-mod PLANETPACK.BIG,SWSOUND.BIG,SWMUSIC.BIG,GENHODS.BIG,SHIPHODS.BIG,CORE.BIG,OLDSHIPS.BIG -luatrace -hardwarecursor

 

there are spaces before the - in luatrace and hardware cursor.

 

 

"C:\Program Files\Sierra\Homeworld2\Bin\Release\Homeworld2.exe" -mod PLANETPACK.BIG,SWSOUND.BIG,SWMUSIC.BIG,GENHODS.BIG,SHIPHODS.BIG,CORE.BIG,OLDSHIPS.BIG -luatrace -hardwarecursor

 

 

that should work, copy and paste. if c&p doesnt work, type it in manually, exactly as it appears, the .BIG files need to be in that order. kind of a pain, but its worth it

 

 

Edit: if you have never played a warlords mod before, and want everyhing to work the same, remove the OLDSHIPS.BIG from the command line. this file adds in more ships from previous versions that have not been completely converted to 0.6. the game still works and is playable, but the older ships are much more vulnerable than the ones that have been converted.

It could also be that the game isn't installed in the standard folder, so you should check where you installed it. Also the best way to modify a shortcut is to create a normal shortcut and then just add -mod PLANETPACK.BIG...
