Editing GAME


The Glest Advanced Modified Engine is an experimental version of the Glest Advanced Engine fork of Glest.

It was created by MoLAoS.

GAME contains support for an ever expanding set of experimental features which appear to be bug free. New features added to GAME can be accessed by modders using the unit xml file.

GAME comes with a modified version of the Magitech Tech Tree and the Magic and Tech factions. These versions have the new tags added to each unit for you. In order for you old mods to be run on GAME you will need to add the new tags with values set to 0.

The new features currently operational in GAME are:
