Trying to mod new version

[Acid81]

I have EW version 1.0.0.9040 downloaded recentnly from steam servers. Im playing in offline mode at the moment.

 

Iv tryed everything, hex edited the EW exe to force read the ini files, didnt seem to work. Added entries to system host file to block game from "phoning home", that didnt work.

 

Has anyone successfully modded this version ? Im trying to do a simple mod to the charecter soldiers mobility.

Yes, it can be done.

 

Open XEW\Binaries\Win32\XComEW.exe in hex editor, like HxD and find:

• decimal offset 21576620
• or hexadecimal offset 0x1493bac

and change hex 58 to 57. Basically it changes

XComGame\Config\DefaultGameCore.ini

to

WComGame\Config\DefaultGameCore.ini

 

Next open XEW\XComGame\Config\DefaultGameCore.ini and change:

iType=eItem_ArmorKevlar, iHPBonus=1

to

iType=eItem_ArmorKevlar, iHPBonus=10

so you can confirm it is working.

 

No need to disable phone home at this moment.
