You need to select the correct Game Type in the Skirmish/Multiplayer setup
screen in order for the maps to become accessible. This is because the mod
alters some game files in addition to adding new levels. I can’t guarantee the
results if you skip this step.

DESCRIPTION

A collection of multiplayer maps, as well as a demonstration of my map-making
functions. These maps will only work in Homeworld Remastered.

INSTALLATION

Installation is done by subscribing to the mod on Steam Workshop if you have
the Steam version of the game. For the GOG.com/ModDB version, extract the ZIP
archive and copy the "DataMikaliMaps" folder to your "Homeworld Remastered"
directory, then add "-moddatapath DataMikaliMaps -overrideBigFile -luatrace" to
your Desktop shortcut’s "Target" field.

PLAYING THE GAME

You need to select the correct Game Type in the Skirmish/Multiplayer setup
screen in order for the maps to become accessible. This is because the mod
alters some game files in addition to adding new levels. I can’t guarantee the
results if you skip this step.

skirmish however. These maps are also marked with a pair of dice in the level
