Original Revamp

Description
This mod improves the Russian campaign and adds a skirmish mode. Now also available in actual multiplayer.

Requires patch 3.0.9.268

The campaign part involves all Russian missions except Alliance, and features better AI, many bugfixes, new or expanded secondary objectives, and many new lesser features.

The skirmish mode is a generic multi-like game, available on 10 multiplayer and 4 campaign maps.

Each map has several settings similar to those in multiplayer, including amount and skills of people, crate spawn, deposits, people respawn and apes.

It also allows to set technology level for a given map. There are five, which include:
- Light weapons: Only some basic tech and Gatling are allowed.
- Medium weapons: All basic techs, medium weapons (Gatling, Gun, Rocket and Flamer), all non manual vehicle controls and only weapon upgrade 1.
- Heavy weapons: the above + Heavy gun, Heavy Rocket, Laser, Remote explosives and all special soldiers. All upgrades up to level 2. Also most of nation specialised technologies from Sib, Space-Time, Bio and Opto labs.
- All except bomb: the above + all the special vehicles (morhling chassis, Behemoth, Time Lapser, Double Laser and Self Propelled Bomb) and all level 3 upgrades.
- All: adds only the siberite bomb.

Each map has a number of positions to which you can assign bots or the player, as well as freely setting their nation, color, team (all teams have shared vision), difficulty and ai style (for Bot), and main character (for the player).

There are 9 Ai strategies which apply depending of the settings of nation/tech/difficulty:
- Easy: This is restricted to easy difficulty of the bot. The bot will use lighter weapons than the technology level allows.
- Offensive (normal): Bot will use a balanced weaponry, and focus on making vehicles more than bunkers/turrets.
- Defensive (normal): Balanced weapons, and will focus on building up it's defences first, before atttacking.
- Lasers: Bot will prioritise using lasers. Also include some rockets due to laser low building damage.
- Double Lasers: Bot will prioritise using double lasers, otherwise normal lasers and rockets.
- Self propelled bombs: focus on SP bombs, supplemented with guns and rockets.
- Heavy Guns: Hg spam of morphling Hg or Hg + time lapsers. Only available on technology level 4.
- Behemoths: focus on making and attacking with behemots, supplemented with Hg, heavy rockets and time lapsers.
- Siberite Bomb: Nuclear War like play, where the Bot focuses only on making a bomb.

Each bot can have it's own difficulty level set, which are:
- Easy: Bot will use the easy level strategy.
- Medium: Bot will have all the resources same as the player and will use a strategy other than easy.
- Hard: same as medium + will have more starteing resources and double crate spawn in it's base.
- Extreme: same as hard + will have more and better skilled people.
- Insane: same as above + more and better skilled people again and starts with half of it's base.

I have an issue getting skirmish to run in ReVamp mod. Skirmish option is either greyed out (classic interface) or no options appear after choosing a map (new interface). I have tried running a skirmish map via multiplayer menu, but to no avail. I used to play it in 2022 and it was just fine (saved games from that period work). Have I become dumber since then or something broke with one of OW's updates?

@Odd1 - in mission with destroying Omikron base, prof. Schulze does not appear at all - or appears directly in Omikron :D but I can't get him. Any clues?

If you cannot play the mod after OW update:
(Stucuk/House): goto <Original War>/Mods/RV/ and rename or delete the lua folder

Bonjour @Chazalbat1995 quel est le message d'erreur ? Peux-tu appuyer sur "Hide" et jouer sans que ça ne soit un problème majeur ?
Chazalbat1995 13 Jul, 2022 @ 9:44am 
Je ne peux plus utiliser ce mod, car dès que le lance le mod et que j'arrive sur le menu principal du jeu, il y a une fenêtre de message d'erreur qui est ouverte. Que faire?
