X-Wing Alliance Versions 1.0 - 2.02 RETAIL Version 15/6/99

This file is an ammendment to the Laxity releases for this game
The instructions are not complete and do not patch the launcher which enables you to switch pilots


> - Make a *full* HD installation of XWA from CD1.                 
> - Copy the complete directory "WAVE" from CD1 to your XWA root    
>   directory, e.g. "C:GAMESXWA".                                
> - Copy the complete "MOVIES" directory from CD1 to your XWA root  
>   directory. This will add some files to your XWA "MOVIES" dir.   
> - Copy the file "DISK2.ID" from CD2 to your XWA root directory.   
> - Copy all "BATTLE*.SMN" files from the "MOVIES" dir on CD2     
>   to your XWA "MOVIES" directory, e.g. "C:GAMESXWAMOVIES".     
> - Install the v2.01 update.
> - Copy the supplied registry setup file "regsetup.exe" to your 
>   XWA root directory and execute it to adjust the game registry 
>   settings for No-CD playing.                                              
> - Remove the read-only attribute from "XWINGALLIANCE.EXE" (if    
>   necessary).                                                    
> - Finally copy the crack file "XWA201CR.EXE" to your XWA root    
>   directory and execute the crack.    
> - Execute "XWINGALLIANCE.EXE" to play the game. 
> 
> - Notice: This complete No-CD installation takes up ~900 megs of   
>   HD space. If you want to bring this down later, you can delete    
>   the big movie files from the "MOVIE" directory.                   

Did you really think that was all on CD2
ALSO

 - Copy "Wavealetta" Directory into "%GAMEDIR%WAVE".
 - Copy "WaveFrontendB*M*" directories to "%GAMEDIR%WAVEFRONTEND".
 - Copy "WaveMissionVoiceB*M*" dirs to "%GAMEDIR%WAVEMISSIONVOICE".
 - Run Supplied "X-WingLaunchCr.exe" in "%GAMEDIR%".
 - Run "Regedit.exe" and edit keys
 
	  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareLucasArts Entertainment Company LLCX-Wing Alliancev1.0]
	  CD Path=%GAMEDIR%
	  Source Path=%GAMEDIR%

Inserting "%GAMEDIR%" as the root of the game installation e.g "C:GamesXWingAlliance".

Now the original icons will work (You can run Alliance.EXE) and you can switch pilots for those of you with friends.
This is the only patch I am aware of that *Fixes* Alliance.EXE.
Without copying additional files you will have no speech after Level 9 (i.e joining Rebellion).

Total installation size ~820mb

Crack built with "LAXiTY´s Ultra Patcher 32" coded by PeeGee
This release is nothing to do with Laxity
I just felt it needed to be done and I would share the results

Happy Cracking and peace to the elite
