FREEDOM FORCE X INSTALLATION
Freedom Force X is an unofficial expansion pack for Freedom Force, giving you access to 56 new attributes for character creation, as well as four new optional attack types. As of V1.0 it works with
the original Campaign, Skirmish mode (patch V1.1 or better required) and Alex's EZ Danger Room.
I can't make any guarantees about Mod campaigns or multiplayer yet, but you're welcome to investigate.
Read about it here.
Certain patch files have been requested on the Freedom Reborn forums. Get them here.
READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLING!
Freedom Force X is not a mod, it installs files into your main Freedom Force directory.
Doing so may overwrite other data you have stored in there, such as effects from the EZ FX packs.
It will NOT overwrite custom heroes, save games or mod data.
Before installing, you should back up your files and follow the procedure below:
Installation Procedure
-
The following files will be overwritten. Back them up to another directory:
- Data/fx.dat (modified by EZ FX)
- Data/objects.dat
- Data/characters.dat
- Data/res.dat
- Data/powers.dat
- Data/attributes.dat
- Data/Lang/English/strings.txt
- Data/Lang/English/strings.dat
- Data/Missions/Scripts/cshelper.py
- Data/Missions/Scripts/sk.py
- Data/Missions/Scripts/aff.py (from the EZ Danger Room)
-
Now run the Freedom Force X installer, pointing it at your Freedom Force install directory.
-
You'll now have a couple of shortcuts to Freedom Force X and the Freedom Force X Manual in your FF folder. Everything you need to know should be in there, including step-by-step guides on how to stop FFX from changing your mod experiences, and how to recover any effects you'd previously installed.
OK, you've been warned and read all that. Get it here. Save it to your Freedom Force directory (eg C:\Program Files\Irrational Games\Freedom Force) and run it from there.
