[edit] Overview
HConfig2 / HConfig.NET is a replacement for the normal HConfig application included in the Planets 4 package.
As the name suggests it is a .NET program, so you must have the .NET framework installed.
[edit] Installation
- Make sure that you have installed .NET Framework Version 2.0 [1]
- Download the Zip-file [2]
- Unzip anywhere on your computer.
[edit] Alternative Installation
this will allow hconfig2 to always be used when you select the hconfig button from your host window
- Make sure that you have installed .NET Framework Version 2.0 [3]
- Download the Zip-file from above
- Unzip anywhere on your computer.
- Rename the orginal HCONFIG file located in your planets folder to HCONFIGORIGINAL or something to your liking.
- Rename HCONFIG2 from the downloaded zip file to HCONFIG and place it in your Planets Directory.
[edit] Running the Program
- Press the "Select File" Button to choose the Universe file, that you want to configure.
- You can also pass the Universe file as command line parameter
- Press the "Undo" Button to discard all changes since your last save.
- Press the "Default" Button to use the default values (same values as in HConfig.exe).
- Press the "Save" Button to save the changes to the universe file.
[edit] History
[edit] V2.06 (April 2nd 2008)
Added support for the changed Victory Settings in Host 213 (Victory Point Scoring for the following values are now configurable via HConfig between 0 and 500 instead of just being an on/off switch: VictoryPop1Million, VictoryPop5Million, VictoryPop10Million, VictoryNativeVote, VictoryNotAtWarVotes, VictoryAtWarMinusOne. In other words, you'll get the value set for these as victory points instead of just 1 VP.)
[edit] V2.05 (February 17th 2008)
- Changed WingChargeDivisor default value to 50 (reflects change in Host 212f)
- Hopefully fixed a bug, that occured when making changes with both HConfig2 and host.exe
