The AI doesn't offer a 'choose save path' command and in some situations this can get the AI in serious trouble. It can also happen if the AI tries to retreat from an attack or tries to support a distant enemy.


Most of those situations are caused, because the AI tries to capture a strategic/critical point and since the check routine for threats on path is bugged, the AI thinks the way is save and runs into the open arms of an enemy army. (In other words: The AI really sucks in those situations)Here's probably a Relic pathing problem involved. It attacks with single squads which don't seem to attack back and are hopeless sacrificed. From experience there are two other things that could help to avoid or at least reduce the problem:Ĭ) Switch the server host to another computerĭ) Exclude low performance computers from the sessionįAQ6: On some maps the AI seems to have a very strange behaviour. If you've still problems, it doesn't look too good. DOS AI 2.1 has some performance improvements, but if this is not enough then try to:Ī) Activate AI Highspeed option in the game mode panel at the setup of a gameī) Deactivate AI Donations option in the game mode panel at the setup of a game A short duration after the start of the game, one or more of the players loose the connection and are dropped from the game.When it comes to multiplayer synchronisation, DOW seems to react very sensitive to the increased performance hits of the AI mod. Is there a description anywhere?Yes! Just look at the readme file in the AI config panel section.įAQ5: I get strange synchronisation errors when playing with my friends in a LAN party or online.

Where do I have to look?In the Start -> Programs -> THQ -> Dawn of War Dark Crusade -> Dawn of Skirmish AI Project section of the windows start menu, you'll find links to the readme file and the AI config.įAQ4: I don't understand the options in the AI config panel. (Just like Take and Hold, Assassination, etc.)įAQ3: I can't find the AI control panel or the readme file. What should I do?The AI donations are by default deactivated (We didn't have a choice here.), and you have to activate it for the first time in the game modes section when you start a new game.

Note: Although there's still no AI mod info shown at the main menu or the game manager, the mod SHOULD BE active!įAQ2: The AI donations doesn't seem to work. If you want to switch back to the default AI, you have to remove the 'RequiredMod.2 = dowai' line in the DXP2.module file. The mod should now always be active, even if you only use the DC shortcut to start the game. RequiredMod.2 = W40kat the bottom of the file. But you can try to avoid the replacement mod manager and manipulate the two module files dowai.module and DXP2.module yourself.Īdd the following line to the bottom of the file:

Download it here and copy into DarkCrusadeDirectory.Ĭould be a write protected problem of the DC folder or maybe you don't have admin rights. If you get an entry in DarkCrusadeDirectory\warnings.log : "Failed to load mod dll 'WXPMod_DCMod.dll' then it is possible that you are missing a file called msvcr71.dll.

What should I do?Okay, seem like the replacement mod manager doesn't seem to work on your system. The Skirmish AI shortcut doesn't seem to work either and there's no AI version info shown at the main menu. Okay since some people seem to have the same problems with the DC 2.0 version of the Dawn of Skirmish AI mod, it's probably a good thing to start an FAQ section to offer a quick solution to all common problems.įAQ1: The ingame mod manager doesn't seem to work, although the mod installed correctly to the Dark Crusade folder.
