Alex's Freedom Fortress - EZ Danger Room

EZ Danger Room v2.0
The original skirmish mode add-on for Freedom Force by ABenavides

DOWNLOAD IT!
EZ Danger Room v2.0

 


HOW TO USE:

1. Run the Install EXE and follow the prompts to install (should be installed to your FF Missions folder, the default path is in there for those who have used the standard install path)

* If you didn't use the standard path, just add "\Data\Missions\" to where you installed. For example: if you installed FF in G:\Freedom\, the path to missions is: G:\Freedom\Data\Missions\

2. Run AFFDR.EXE by double-clicking it. Select background music, difficulty, time of day, or "watch only" from the pulldown lists.

3. Click on foes in the "Foes Available" list and use the "Add" button to put them in your danger room. Also, you can check the four "Hero" boxes to turn members of your selected squad (selected in FF itself) into foes.

4. Use the "Objects Available" list to add objects you can use to your danger room (powerups, tnt, etc.)

5. When you are done, Click the "Save" button. This creates a file called AFFMAP.PY in your FF Missions\Scripts folder.

6. Start or switch to Freedom Force and Create a new MULTIPLAYER game. Once you have installed the EZ Danger Room Tool, you will have 13 additional multi-player maps to use (All the Danger Room Maps begin with "AFF"). Select any of the "AFF" maps.

7. IMPORTANT: If you try to make another danger room, you will WIPE OUT your previous one. If you wish to save it for future use, rename the file AFFMAP.PY to something else. To use it again, just name it AFFMAP.PY.

8. CO-OP PLAY - In order for co-op play to work properly, each person in the game needs to use the identical Danger Room settings. You can either both create them exactly on your PCs ("add two thugs and three troopers", etc.) or have one person create the settings and give them to all other players. The settings are stored in AFFMAP.PY in your Missions\Scripts folder. NOTE: If all players except 1 get all their heroes knocked out, the level will end (the way multi-player games normally end).

9. USING WITH IRRATIONAL'S DANGER ROOM - Enter Irrational's Danger Room by clicking "Danger Room" on the main FF menu (you just have installed FF patch v1.2). Choose one of these two modes:

  • Danger Room - Alex's Freedom Fortress : foes act a bit more aggressively
  • Danger Room - Alex's Freedom Fortress : Watch Mode: sit back to watch the carnage
