Used the dll's that i am using in the 1.13 mods and it runs like a dream. Playing it on Expert mode but not as many enemies as in 1.13. Well, it retains the vanilla spirit, so it's good and still a bit more challenging than the pure vanilla setting. Had a glitch with Elliott, waiting on Deidranna to enter the room so he can report and got an endless stopwatch, which i got rid with either Alt + Enter or Ctrl + Enter. Not sure which but it worked. Other than that, the game is very enjoyable and brings back nostalgia from 1998. The maps are rich and detailed, the enemies still dumb as bricks though. In 1.13 they can think and look for you, try to flank you,etc. Overall, it;s great work !!!

Glad you got it working. But it needs no dll's.

Players should use the "Tons of Guns" setting only. "Normal guns" may work but I never tested it and it'll probably have odd merc loadouts.

Hello

I am not so familiar with JA2 Stracciatella.

I have clean copy of original JA 2 Gold

How can I install this mod over original?

Thank you

A.

You download and set up straciatella, following the instructions here: https://ja2-stracciatella.github.io/how-to-run/

Then you unzip the RtSA mod in the mods folder and enable it in the Stracc launcher. Now you can play.

Hi, there's a new version of my mods available:
https://www.mediafire.com/file/e3bpas86qmnytak/az75mods.zip/file

The archive also contains my initial map mod on Stracc alongside RtSA (now called Arulcan Summer)
There are more weapons than in UB now and all known issues have been solved. I wanted to give you guys a reason to play Straciatella, the hundreds of new maps and the weaponmod should make replaying JA2 wworth it.

Please start the game on TONS OF GUNS and REALISTIC settings.

@Shanga: please host these babies on "Kermi's" if possible. You can delete the initial Azmaps on Stracc mod that is already there methinks, it is now Arulcan Summer and it is closer to what I wanted the playing experience to be.

Hi! Great maps and weapon balance! Enemy encounters are also more challenging probably because of the new maps! Thank you!
