Thank you Peter! My modlist will most likely still take some changes due to high pertinent suggestions here, and because still working on Veko's R.S.D. to include it in the list, but with more relaxed hitpoints and armor levels (currently I adjust the Zones.Cfg file which is a behemoth of a work...)

Coming back to this game, and found this, nice. I found TWoS too complicated for me as it is now. A couple of clarifications/questions though.

One way to 'purify' these files is to install TWoS first, backup these files and de install everything afterwards. Or get your hands on these files...

So if I understand this correctly you need to apply the same modifications to these files as TWoS does? So couldn't I just copy the TWoS snapshot file:

Code:

TWoS 2.0_Snapshot.gps

to the TDW and apply that? Or does it mess around with other files as well?

No, you would either need to have the files I mention above and not comming from Steam or: install TWoS and backup these files after a successful TWoS installation.
After that, you would need to re-install all the game, patch to 1.2.0, and overwrite your game with these files. If you don't, then TDW Generic Patcher will not work, and you cannot mod the game like in my modlist (more precisely: you can but my entire mod will not work.) That's what I said above, sorry you didn't understand.
My future download could overcome this problem with a one-click JSGME mod installation, but we are not there yet.

Well, I'm on UPlay so it's already 1.2.0 ready so no issue there. No I understood you perfectly fine, just that I instead of doing it like you did, I applied a modified version of the TWoS Snapshot to only change those files mentioned, and nothing else. Was a lot easier than install TWoS, reinstall the game again and copy the files. Looking forward to the complete list.

EDIT: Except I couldn't find 'Dark_Observation_Scope_from_TWoS' at least not by that file name.

@MrGeeBee,

But to have a TWOS snapshot you did have to install TWoS first...

Whatever, you need all files returned to v.1.2.0 of the game. If you have that, try to apply the TDW Generic Patcher. If it works you will be able to install and play my modlist certainly.

No the TWoS installer is just a zip file so I pulled the gps file from it and modified it a bit to fit the correct files. But it's almost the same anyway, just less hassle for reinstalling.

Well, sort of, albeit a bit unclear.

The observation scope in the command room is now dark and not white anymore. Taken from TWoS.

Great work!
