Black & White 2 Modding

Re: Black & White 2: Of Gods and Mortals - Unofficial Expansion Pack

Okay,
so here's the thing.
I notice on Kayssplace there's a ton of different files to be done for BoTG OGAM.

Can someone toss me a checklist of what i need, along with instructions to install, what i need to backup, etc?
Would be greatly appreciated!
Also what patches do i need to install?

I was also thinking... wouldn't it be cool to do a remake of BnW1 using BnW2?

A few last things... do the civic bulidings in BoTG actually do anything useful or are they just umm pretty? The manual says they do but i found hospitals pointless... and there was no point to balancing buildings. just slap down altar and large buildng after building and win.

First, I want to say that this mod looks amazing from what I've read, and I really hope it will be released soon. How long exactly until the multiplayer is ready? I've check Kayssplace.com and I haven't seen any updates the past couple weeks, so I'm just wondering since I heard it was practicly completed. If you could feel me in I would be greatly appreciated! job guys! keep it up!

This all sounds very interesting. I have kind of followed the team to see where they are. By fall last year, I was waiting for OGaM to come out.

By now, I was beggining to wonder where it was. Thanks for the update, Dax.

Uh, sorry if I missed a post or something, but when is it expected to come out?

quaseman:
Why don't you have a modder badge around these boards Dax? You did so much for this game. I shell go nominate you for the badge at least.

I nominated Daxter and Oodin yonks ago, but I think that nominations thread thread was useless for while, when it got derailed - call Quaseman

Hey. I intend to post the MP mod in the main BW2 board once its been released just for a reassurance that you can download and play straight away.

Oh and thanks, Ive tried my best to do what I can for this game. Its missed out on so much and still has lots of potential. Im sure even the original creators would be happy to see how long their game has lived for.

This Multiplayer mod should really be made more public, seeing the missing of it was one of the main complaints for B&W2. I'm not so inclined into multiplayer, but I am sure there are a number of people that are. At least a stickied post together with this expansion would be I think. Anybody knowing more about it maybe should make a summary post and let the admins/moderators sticky it!

Great work also on the unofficial expansion!

Ah long waits, dont u just love em.

Anyway, there are 2 things to be said in this post.

1. OGaM progress continues on, land is almost done so sorry if it took a year but the AI scripts and everything were not easy to be made from scratch. Expect a new beta soon.

2. The Big One. Black & White 2 Multiplayer game under development by a member of the OGaM Team has successfully completed it. After some beta testing, it will be for release. Follow the link below to find info about BnW2: MP. If you would like to become a beta tester plz contact iRzilla.

Hey I'm new to the community and I tried installing the Beta version and I fallowed all the manual install instructions and re-checked the paths of each like 10 times and I don't know how to actually play the game, I figured I just hit start new game but it only just started a new game, I know cuz I sat through the the whole aztec slaughter etc. so if anyone could help or give me a topic that I missed that helped this problem that would be cool. Thanks all

Hey, i don't know if its too late too give this idea, but i think you've already thought of it. It would be nice if you could choose your race, and to make it siple just a choice between greew, norse, japanese, or aztec. I definite many people would enjoy that. Having to be greek was one of the things I really disliked about Black and White.

Also,i think here should be more things changing when you are or .
