how do I update an old mod with the new version?

Post by duffus »

I am in the process of putting 8 races together with factories as the commanders. when I updated to the new version of Spring (because units where getting stuck in factories) i get an error reading of bad start script. It was working before but unfortunatly I no longer have an old version of Spring so I can not reinstall. Anyone have any suggestions.

p.s. ill get the exact error message tomorrow (its installed on another system)

8 races...ever heard of 'balance'
factories as commanders, would be novel if u didnt intend on 8 races!

Drone_Fragger - Ill try it. ill find out if it works tonight. I hope that is all it is. thanks for the suggestion.


Min3mat _ I knew someone would say something about that. all I can say is that my friends and I have always played TA differently than the way it was designed (no starvation). I use the commanders because multiple race commanders are not coded into the game, it only looks for arm and core. It was the only way I could even remotely get this to work. balance is something that I was going to worry about when I am finished tring to get all the races in the game. If people want me to release the mod then they will be welcome to balance the game however they want to. Now it is very intense and very much like AA. Hope you would like to give it a try.
