Do you have what it takes to be HardCore?
« on: March 02, 2006, 07:04:53 pm »
XenoCorp Strategic Simulations in concert with Firesoul are proud to announce :



This revisitation of the classic OP Plus 4.0 finally allows players who wanted a realistic production shiplist to have it their way!

What's different? All the tugs, scouts, and other ships that were included for the sake of completeness in the original OP Plus 4.0 are now removed. This is a lean, mean  fighting machine shiplist based on what would have been available during the General War  / Federation & Empire era's in SFB. No more relying on uber ships to win a match, now you've got to have the skilz to be HARDCORE.

ftp://www.dynaverse.net/sfc2_op/Mods/XC_MOD_PACKS/opplus_40_hc_setup.exe

The full readme is attached.

File size is 340KB. (Requires OP+ 4)

Do i need to have a mod switcher for this?  I don't have one right now

Oh... and will this be taking effect on the UAW & other servers?

Well, it's easy then, assuming UAW has an uninstall.

1) Copy OP folder, rename to UAW
2) Uninstall UAW - this leaves you with what? Stock or 4.0
3) Do whatever

If UAW doesnt have an uninstall (which would be p00py), you can always uninstall the game and start from scratch.

The batch files bring you back to any version of OP you want - 2552 (CD patched) or 4.0 (which many consider regular). I may add a batch file for the new Hardcore shiplist as well. There's no need to uninstall anything. UAW Operates independently of all other mods and respects all other mods at the same time. You ought to see how many different shiplists I have available on a moment's notice. If you need any help with UAW just ask..  :)

There's a problem with the mod that seems to remove all sounds except the music from the game. Anybody know how to fix this?

Does this mod need to be updated to the 2552 patch first?

Pretty much everything does. If you are not up to 2.5.5.2 you cannot do any multiplayer at all.

Age, in the OP Hardcore, all X ships Orions and I think Freighters have either been removed or set with 999 BPV so that they can not be selected... check the file listed above to see what has been removed.. I did an OP + v4.0 to OP + v4.0 Hardcore comparrison. The list above is what the results of that comparrison provided.

I don't get it, what is the advantage of using this "Hardcore" 4.0 list compared to regular 4.0?
