Mods & Development / SaveLoadFix on single player?
« on: July 31, 2024, 07:18:05 PM »
I've only ever played single player campaign mode, and now that my kids are old enough, I'm trying to get them into the game.
I've tried running the dos version in dosbox and also the latest War2Combat version I found here, but in both cases, as soon as we start saving/loading the game, the AI keeps breaking and enemy units stop attacking, stop researching, etc. Reloading or restarting the game doesn't fix anything. We're on a level now with our base built, resources collected, ready to attack and defend but the AI is just idle. Just takes most of the fun out of the game when there's not much of a fight
We're all just very, very casual players (and not even very good ones at that!) and as much as possible would like to recreate the same gameplay experience that was originally available
I've downloaded and tried playing Danny's DAIFE and while I think it's much better in many ways with various enhancements and fixes, the difficulty is just far too difficult for casual warriors like ourselves. (shoutout to Danny for all the hard work!)
Is there a mod or a patch available that addresses JUST the known save/load AI feature? Or even a mod with some enhancements and fixes with no increase in difficulty?
I realize many of you more experienced players are looking for a more challenging gameplay experience (and maybe someday we'll get there), but for now I'd be content with just being able to play the game as I used to play it with the original, much easier level of difficulty
any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thx!
