Installing Empire at War Mod: A Step-by-Step Guide

Are you a fan of Empire at War: Forces of Corruption looking to enhance your gaming experience with mods? In this guide, we'll walk you through the process of downloading and installing the popular Empire Expanded: Fall of the Republic 0.5 mod for the Steam version of the game. Additionally, we'll provide tips to optimize performance, especially when playing on large Galactic Maps.

Installing via Steam Workshop

To kickstart the process, head to the Steam Workshop page for Empire Expanded: Fall of the Republic 0.5. You can find the mod by clicking here. Once on the page, simply click the "Subscribe" button to begin the download and installation process.

  • Click "Subscribe" on the Steam Workshop page for the mod.
  • Monitor the download progress in your Steam library.
  • Copy the mod ID from the bottom of the page.
  • Right-click on Empire at War: Forces of Corruption in your library, select "Set Launch Options", and paste the mod ID as shown - steam mod equals 1976399102.

Launching the game through this method ensures seamless access to the mod without any hiccups.

Installing via Mod Database

For those preferring the Mod Database route, download the mod file from this link. Save the file in your game's installation folder - typically named corruption. Next, create a folder named mods if you haven't already and extract the mod file into it. Ensure your path looks like this - ...mods/fall of the Republic/data.

  • Download the mod file from the Mod Database.
  • Save the file in the mods folder within the game directory.
  • Extract the file to the fall of the Republic/data structure.
  • Set the launch option by right-clicking on the game, choosing properties, and setting the mod path as mods/fall of the Republic.

Launching the game post-installation will now grant you access to the mod's content seamlessly.

Improving Performance

Empire at War struggles with performance on large maps due to its limitation of utilizing only one CPU core. To alleviate this, follow these steps:

  1. Open Task Manager while the game is running.
  2. Locate the game's process (e.g., Star Wars G.exe) under the details tab.
  3. Right-click on the process and set its priority to the highest.
  4. Set the CPU affinity to two cores for optimal performance.

By tweaking these settings, you can significantly enhance the game's performance, even on modern systems with multi-core processors.
