Applying a new mod to an existing game?
Anyone know if there's a way to apply a mod to a game already in progress? When I started the game I had no mods applied and thus can't just append the content of the mod into an existing .dm file so that's out.
Anyone know any way to apply a mod to a existing game that was started without any mods? If anyone has any ideas it would be much appreciated.

Re: Applying a new mod to an existing game?
The mods that are in use for a game are decided by the host when the game is created. I understand the desire but if it was any other way we would have a BIG cheating hole.

Which means that the hunter of heroes bug will simply destroy MP games until it's fixed.

Not abit. I dont see where some opinion bug has anything to do with this. Maybe you should post that to some other thread?

I haven't seen a single HoH eating yet. I've played just a couple of games, blitzes started from the #dominions irc.

I lost a Paladin commander with the heroic ability of extra hitpoints to the horror. And I did verify this paladin did not have any horror marks at the start of the battle.

Re: Applying a new mod to an existing game?
I lost some heroes to the eater of heroes but nothing that I would consider to be a "bug". But I didnt see where it applied to the original subject. If the person was trying to install a patch to change THAT in midgame (which wasnt mentioned) then its true that the answer locks THAT game until a patch fixes it. But it doesnt mean that it destroys all MP games since a new game can be started using a mod.

And besides, I didn't notice it in the blitzes I played. So it doesn't ruin all blitzes either. One of them was with the HoH nerf mod enabled, yes, but even in that one I didn't notice any attacks.
