**SOLDIERS AT WAR - HEAVY** 1.8

Description
!! THIS MOD IS NO LONGER UNDER DEVELOPMENT !!

!! >> PLEASE READ << !!

DUE TO GAME UPDATES AND CESSATION OF MOD DEVELOPMENT - THIS MOD NO LONGER FUNCTIONS AS EXPECTED

The Steam Workshop Mods - **INFANTRY** and **SOLDIERS AT WAR** will be replaced with a new mod i have been developing.

To run this mod with the latest version of Running With Rifles, it requires a workaround to bypass the steam overlay system for RWR, this process is NOT intrusive and will NOT harm your install of RWR if it is followed closely and correctly.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
!! >> WARNING << !! !! >> WARNING << !! !! >> WARNING << !!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you are NOT CONFIDENT in working with folders and file explorer then PLEASE DO NOT PROCEED with or attempt this workaround, please turnaround and try out the other great mods on steam workshop, I don't want you to encounter a problem with your game and have to uninstall and re-download the game if something bad happens, so please keep this in mind before you make a choice to proceed with the workaround.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Apologies for the mod not working as originally designed, but if you follow this workaround, the mod should work as originally intended from when it was first released a few years ago by running directly from the games 'packages' directory and bypassing the steam workshop overlay system.

Have a look at the steps and get a gist of what is involved before you proceed.

To install the mod, please follow these steps closely:

1 - Subscribe & download the mod
2 - When the mod has finished downloading, Open file explorer & navigate to the following directory:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\270150\919393524
3 - You will see a directory named: soldiers_at_war_heavy - copy (do not cut) this folder to the following directory:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RunningWithRifles\media\packages
4 - Start the game, the mod will appear in the 'Start New Campaign Menu' and the 'Quick Match Mod Menu'

To uninstall the mod, please follow these steps closely:
1 - Open file explorer & navigate to the following directory:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RunningWithRifles\media\packages
2 - Locate the folder: soldiers_at_war_heavy - Select and delete the folder: soldiers_at_war_heavy
3 - Go to the Soldiers At War Heavy steam workshop page and unsubscribe from the mod, this will remove the mod folder from the steam overlay mod system for running with rifles and record the action on your steam client.

Following these steps closely as described above and you will not encounter any problems or issues with the installation and uninstall of the mod.

GUIDE HOW TO MAKE RUN FASTER
you need to go in the path C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RunningWithRifles\media\packages\soldiers_at_war_heavy\factions and find default_base.character, after that u need to change <parameter class="running_steer_amount" value="0.375" on the wathever you want

if you are interested to see some of the work i am doing with the retexture of the vanilla game then head over to my profile artwork page as i will upload some screenshots right now.

I had a look at this mod tonight.

I updated the mod description & installation instructions.

the mod will not work normally through the steam overlay system (ie. subscribe & play)

the mod will work as originally intended when run from the running with rifles packages directory therefore bypassing the steam overlay.

please follow the updated instructions to run this mod

if you are not confident in file explorer or copying folders here and there then please don't continue with the install instructions, i don't want you messing up your game.

i have ceased development on this mod as i am working on the new mod to replace my old mods

sorry for my absence from steam for a year and a half, i am back and i want to finish my work on running with rifles, this new mod will be my final mod for rwr, i am working to finish the retexture of the vanilla game right now and when that is finished i will finish this new mod.

I will have a look at this mod and see if i can get it working again, i have a look tomorrow.

I am working at the moment on a retexture of the vanilla game, when i am finished with that i will resume work on my new mod.

My brother and i have created alot of military vehicles for the new mod, you can see what has been created on my steam profile artwork page.
