SE:V v1.33 Patch Available!

[Captain Kwok]

Greetings!

The v1.33 patch has been posted:

The patch is a few days early - so I don't quite have the next Balance Mod version ready yet. Hopefully tonight I will have it ready to go. Your v1.03/1.04 copies will cry about missing entries in settings.txt when you load the mod - you can get around that by adding the new fields from the standard settings.txt to the mod's settings.txt - I believe they're just entries regarding UI element colours.

Awesome, thanks!

I think I'm going to hold off on trying it until I have the latest copy of your mod. So, hopefully you can get it out tonight and I can try to get on the SE5 bandwagon again.

Thanks again!

Awesome to see the patch out already. Hope to see it soon on PBW.

Can't wait to try it out. I know there aren't that many mods out for SEV in comparison to SEIV, but I was wondering if a mod launcher had been created yet. I'd love to try the Balance Mod, but I'm not sure how to launch it.

SEV doesn't need a mod launcher, as it has one built-in. All you do is put the mod folder into your GameTypes folder, and then you can select it when starting a new game.

I'm not certain how it worked for SE IV, but in SE V you just put the mod folder into the GameTypes folder and you can load up the mod from inside SEV

You can select mods from the 'Game Type' option in the set-up I believe.

Ok, thanks for the info. I guess I'll have to read the manual one of these days to get all of this good info. I'll try that when I get home.
