Installation:

• Mod Loader (required for all EDF mods) is already included with this mod.

• Simply extract the zip within your game directory:

◦ "Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\Common\Earth Defence Force 6"

◦ The following 3 items should now exist within your game directory:

▪ “Mods” folder

• OBJECT Folder

• WEAPON Folder

▪ modloader.ini

▪ winmm.dll

• If you already have Mod Loader installed from another mod (and thus already possess the files above), simply move the contents of the “WEAPON” and “OBJECT” folder from this mod's zip file into your preexisting “Mods” folder.

Uninstallation:

• Remove the 'Mods' folder, the 'modloader.ini', and 'winmm.dll' files from your game directory.

Mod Compatibility:

• This mod only modifies the allied AI object .sgo files and allied AI weapon .sgo files within the OBJECT and WEAPONS folder respectively.

• It is compatible with any other mod that does not affect these specific files.

• This mod is Lootmaster compatible.

• For this mod to work in online play, all individuals in the lobby must possess the EXACT SAME mod files. Otherwise, you may risk de-syncing or crashing.

◦ It is best to set your lobby to “private” and use this mod only with a premade group of friends. (Again, please ensure everyone has the same mod files).

◦ If trying out other Allied NPC Mods from the Nexus, it is strongly recommended to clean and delete the contents of your WEAPON and OBJECT folder each time before installing, to avoid conflicts or differing files.
