Using mods #306
|
Is there any plan to enable mod support? Specifically for Rise of the Reds and Shockwave. I tried using individual commands a few times; it seems the standard format is usually BIG, but those mods use GIB (with some modifications). I'm using the Flatpak packages. If anyone knows the correct way to test this, I’d appreciate the help. |

Generally renaming the GIB to BIG + any other mod-specific config should work, e.g. refer the related discussion: #207 |

Thank you very much. Based on the solution provided, the AI helped me create a batch script for Linux. I’ve wanted to play some mods again for a long time, but this time on Linux. I’ll share them here. Place the files for each mod in its respective folder and the scripts in the GeneralsX folder (~/GeneralsX/GeneralsZH/). Change the extension from .md to .sh and make them executable. Rise of the Reds dir: ~/GeneralsX/GeneralsZH/RotR/) |

I got SHW working before even seeing that one by just renaming the GIB files, the Install Final bitmap - and having those in the $USER/GeneralsX/GeneralZH directory, and removing the default Data/Scripts from there. Likewise for Contra. I imagine some other mods should work as well. That linked discussion suggests RotR would work also.
