    Question Darth Mod

    I have recently read a lot of praise for Darth mod as it would improve battlefield AI without changing the other aspects of the game, however all the versions I found on the TWC did make other changes. So I wondered if someone could answer the following questions:

    1) Is there a version of Darth mod that improves AI performance without changing the game in another way?
    2) Will installation of this mod affect replays or multiplayer?

    Thank you in advance

    1) There's a version of the mod out which is just his formations, however Darth has said that he made many more adjustments to unit stats and so forth, so it's questionable whether the formations alone would make much difference.

    2) Yes, like all mods, changing the game files will mean that replays taken before the changes may end up with different results. In multiplayer, I believe you're only able to play someone who has exactly the same set-up as you.

    Yes, if you go to TWC and the Major Modification Mod Projects section, go to Darthmod and download his formation files.

    Does the formation-only mod come with an uninstaller or do I have to install R:TW twice when I want to multiplay?

    I don't know for sure, but I imagine the formation mod only changes one file in the setup, just make sure you copy the vanilla files and keep it as a backup and swap between them as you will.
