I don't want to disrupt the thread, which is very enjoyable and enlightening. But I can think of no better place to ask this, since Edmortimer, Sevenfm, and Gopas are active in this thread.

The question pertains to v1.13 buddies and relationships in general, and I know that Gopas was interested also in how it was done. I thought I read a lot of how to do it either on the Arulco Vacations Blog by Edmortimer, or in a related post of his on AV in the forums, perhaps via a link from comments on the AV Blog.

Anyway, I'm going to phrase this poorly. Perhaps, Gopas can phrase it better afterwards. I guess both of us were interested in how Edmortimer had found, after what seemed to be his description of some trial and error, how to change the Buddies, and how it used at least 2 of the XML files. I'm interested in an actual complete method of how to change one such Buddy successfully for both the Merc A and his previous buddy Merc B, and not breaking anything at all. Probably one called something like MercOpinions, and also MercProfiles, possible also Backgrounds.xml. I think initially, Edmortimer found this rather involved and not doing what he first thought, which suggests it isn't that straightforward.

Perhaps one of you can either refer us to a good post on the subject that might show us how to do this correctly, change buddies and relationships, or perhaps write up such a method as a post somewhere. For some reason, I recall reading EdMortimer (I believe) describing this in some detail, anecdotally. But neither Gopas nor I could find it again or maybe I just had a dream one night after reading the AV Blog (I much agree with the changes to many of the Mercs, and incorporated almost all of the changes to MercProfiles and Backgrounds, such as replacing many of the Teacher Traits). Likewise, I'm very interested in SevenFM's changes to the A.I., after having seen an old video documenting the huge menu of orders you could give to Militia in tactical (I just love watching the Militia battles, reminds me of how I loved JA1 when I found out I could have Militia).

Anyway, long post. Move the post if you must, or I can delete it afterwards. It is just that I thought I'd ask here about the Buddies, Friends, and changing those since I know much of Edmortimer's Blog goes deeply into it, and was very entertaining by the way.

Thanks for your forebearance.

Oh, and this is definitely one Mod I would like to make another directory for on my disk to play. As I like most of old 7609's balance, the new A.I. and fixes by SevenFM ought to make it very challenging, and having EdMortimer's new Maps, Gear, and Merc customizations ought to be quite a lot of fun. Not sure I know how to do that well and have it co-exist, so perhaps you can refer me to the method for that as well, if I want to be able to play regular v1.13 Latest SCI and AV 1.10 at will by both being on the hard drive at same time.
