	MegaMod v5_3_1.2 Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

MegaMod Info Site
Here is the POST CODE PATCH MOD.

It has GreyMod Pack 2 in it plus updated spreadsheets from older version.

And to reflect such changes as I have made there is a new version available for download from 3 sources.

v5_3_1.2 (No patch, too many files updated, full version required)
MOO3mods.com
cdgroup.org
MOO3.at



The PRE CODE PATCH MOD.
It will not work with post code patch MOO3.

v5

It includes:

New Orion Revolt mod by JeBuS (works only on Easy difficulty)
ImprovedTechDescriptionsGP
GreyModPack Final
GroundCombatTechs
Encyclopedia_Mod_v3
ExtremePumkin's blackhole mod
MOO3StarPack v002
Alhazred's Covert Operations Mod
Sitrep Customized by JeBuS
NebulaMod by UnConeD
Task Force Size Mod by Orion Sector
Orion Sector Flag Packs 1 & 2
Mythik's Flag Pack Addon
Spy Efficiency Mod by JeBuS
Leader Frequency Mod by JeBuS


None of these mods are made by me nor do I take credit for anything in them. The credit goes to their creators whose original documentation is include. Except for the ones by JeBuS though.

Whats the difference between v5_1.2 and v5_1_1.2?
Also, being new to MegaMod, a readme or something explaining the contents would be nice.

hmm... I wonder how many of this thread was created? this is like the 4th I think.

Anyhoo.
The difference is that it fixed some bugs in task force and sitrep.

Here's the general info on the mod.

Thanks for the info page. I've been wondering about those multiple threads too (but at least you've started this one).

I guess what I was really asking about the files is which one do I need to install? Or do I need to install both (and if so then in what order)?

Please tell me what this patch does and can you play saved games?

I cant believe Infogrames would release a patch which wasnt compatible with previous patches and saved games! I never heard of that before!

I think you're confused. These are patches for the MegaMod, not for the game. Basically the patches listed above are just to update the mod. They will only work during new games, like any gameplay mod.

	Got spare money?

You're confusing me. I have never installed MegaMod before. What do I need to do to have an operational copy of the most current version on my PC?
Also, can I install just a few of the mods? Some of the ones listed seem superfluous or just unnecessary for game play. One of the mods I like is the taskforce size change mod.
Thanks.

You're right I'm confusing you, not to mention myself now. Hehe. Sorry.

At this point in time you can not install only certain aspects. All or nothing.


But go to either
MOO3mods.com
or
MOO3.at

and you can download pretty much any of the component mods in the MegaMod. While apolyton has a lot of good stuff, it is by no means the primary or even secondary place to look for mods. At best it's tertiary. (MOO3 dev plan joke)


The only one of these you need to download is the full version one. The patch is for previous versions, it's only to update them to that version.

EDIT:

At the two sites listed above there are actually newer versions of this mod up. The MegaMod series has gotten good reviews over the past few months and I try to keep it updated as regularly as possible, I'm sorry if these posts were uninformitive, I've been working on the mod, the mod's site, 2 new installers for the mod and real life. So time was really short when I posted.

Last time I installed a task force size mod, the Task Force sizes were increased (good) but the various component requirements (mission ships, escorts, pickets) were lost (very bad).

Is this the case with your mod? A little more detail regarding the changes being made would be appreciated.

There was an initial bug with the task force size mod. It has been resolved now in the MegaMod. The sizes are bigger and the ship requirements are working. I'm sorry about the lack of information on this page and on the info page. There's a lot of info that I still need to put up on all of the pages. I'm trying, honest.

I have updated the main post in this thread to reflect some new info. I've also updated the MegaMod Info Page. Sorry for the long delay on info and any confusion.

I never really liked the component requirements.

I think the requirements are necessary to the game though. That was part of a bug in the mod. It was set at no requirements, i.e. =0, and wierd stuff happened. I can't explain any better than wierd though.

Thanks JeBuS27!!! Please don't get me wrong - I just wanted to offer some constructive criticism. I appreciate the effort you are putting into this.

I'll be downloading the mod tonight - I'm getting my back-end handed to me in my current game, so it's a good excuse to start a new one.

Keep up the good work!!

	Full PM-box? Change here!

Ok... I played around with this over the weekend. Very nice collection of mods. The AI threw some REALLY huge task forces at me - very cool!

I only had two problems, and one is more user preference than a real "problem":

1. The Covert Ops mod doesn't seem to be working. My spies are still appearing as individuals, not teams.

2. The tech pace is too slow. I think I'd like something in between the vanilla game and this mod.

Everything else has been cool.

Yeah sorry about the covert ops mod. I'll be updating that sometime tonight I think to fix it. As for a tech slowdown mod in between. There are a couple different ones over at moo3mods.com. I don't remember what section of mods they're under, but there are at least 3 choices, I believe.

And I've put up v5_3_1.2 now.

It's only up on moo3mods.com.

There is no patch to update from v5_2_1.2. There were too many files changed to make a patch worth while. Full version is recommended. (actually forced)


It now has:

Mithyk's Spy Mod
Visage's Autobuild Mod
GreyModPack 2 updated to current
Encyclopedia combination of various mods
*bug in budget/ledger screen fixed.

I haven't had a chance to update the info site yet. I expect to have that done by morning. Thanks for your patience.
