Wrt to Arulco Revisited, I haven't played too much yet but I like the idea on paper. That said, this is still more variety than vanilla JA2's so we cant complain too much, we still have massive incline like being able to see the difference between an AK, an M16 and a FAL. The LOBOT animations and new sprites are obvious incline, but I will say I'm a little disappointed that there isnt more variety in the weapon models - granted it would be excessive work to make new sprites for every single gun in bloated 1.13 but it's a little annoying when you have something like a semi auto sniper rifle and the sprite is a wood stock bolt action rifle. I never thought anyone would ever manage to make NCTH not suck, but SDO and sevenfm seem to have done it. Or here (official 1.13 repository for mods): If you are interested in Renegade Republic SCI for 2085, you may find it here: To install 2085 modpack, download 2085en + Mods.7z.001 from the link and unpack it into a folder with clean vanilla ja2 game. I also agree that 2085 is one of the best releases for 1.13, it still has a lot from vanilla but at the same time many useful improvements.

Renegade Republic is probably one of very few 1.13 mods (together with Arulco Revisited, which is only available starting from 4870 release) which I ever nearly finished. There is also very good Renegade Republic mod available for 2085 (or 2112 exe which is slightly improved version of the same release), though it's not 100% finished or polished but still a lot of fun if you want new quests and such. Just select required mod in Ja2.ini and run Ja2.exe You may be also interested in unofficial 2085en modpack, which additionally provides possibility to play with some map mods: Steam: If you do all this in the steamapps folder and you rename the new exe into JA2.You can find all kinds of old releases here: Problems: I could not Alt+Tab out and in again If you want to change some other settings (recommended, lot's of fun stuff) you have to use a texteditor: Data-1.13/JA2_Options.INI Start wine INI editor.exe once for Resolution. The adress for checkout is hard to find, look at bear's pit: MODDING HQ 1.13 -> V1.13 General Development Talk -> Instructions for using SVNģ.

Normal svn seems not to work, but RapidSVN did the job. The GameDirectory is managed via tortoise svn. You will find the most recent exe following "Depri's 1.13 Build Repository" on bear's pit. MOST RECENT: You have to get the exe and the GameDirectory seperately. You will download a file containing all the new and externalized files (called GameDirectory) and a fitting exe (GameRevision). EASY: Go to the bear's pit, follow the link to "Kermi's JA2 FTP Repository" and download the version of your choice (look for Releases -> Unofficial for a recent one). You find it under ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/JA2_wildfire/JA2classic/GameĢa. Copy the downloaded files from steam to another folder (not necessary but recommended).
