Copyright Notice =============================================================================== 1. - *Why should I create my civs with a hex editor? (WSICMCWAE?)* =============================================================================== The main reasons are: -Its more reliable than using the in-built game custom civ maker. -Its much easier, it offers full customizable civ making. -You can edit your civ whilst having Empire Earth running. -Many experts use this method because its far more efficient. Other reasons:         -You can edit or create civilizations without even having Empire Earth          installed.         -You can edit/trade your civilizations with your buddies.         -It's fun.         -You learn the basics of how to edit hexadecimals, whilst having fun.         -Because I'd like you to. :-) Which is why I made the guide.         -Something to do in your meaningless life. =============================================================================== 2. - *Update History* =============================================================================== + Newbie's can even try doing this     | + Fixed the uneven ASCII titles    thanks to the instructions and       | + Added the missing bonuses to the    improved layout of the table.        |   table. + Updated the Copyright and WSIMCMCWAE | + Added the "Hey, I'm going to cheat"                                         |   section. -What's new in 2.1?------------------------------------------------------------   + Added tasks and example civs under  | + corrected a few mistakes.     the table.                          | + instructions improved.   + added hex editor details (to make   | + EXAMPLES AND QUIZZES section added     sure you get the right one)         |   for beginners. -What's new in 3.0?-(30th-April-2005)------------------------------------------   + Empire Earth: Art of Conquest       | + Correct several minor errors.     Special Power Data Table added! :)  | + Pointed out that the latest version   + Added Empire Earth ASCII, so we     |   is always on GameFaqs.com server.     know what game this is for lol! -What's new in 3.1?-(04th-July-2005)-------------------------------------------   + Modified/improved format of tables. | + Fixed some very bad mistakes (sorry   + Updated some articles.              |   everyone).   + Grammar/spellings corrected. -What's new in 3.2?-(27th-September-2005)--------------------------------------   + Reorganised updates section so it's | + Corrected stupid grammar mistakes.     smaller.                            | + Tables spacing is updated for   + Added the EXAM, good if your a      |   easier reading.     beginner at editing civs.           | + Many other updates! -What's new in 3.3?-(04th-October-2005)----------------------------------------   + There's 23 special powers in the    | + All title words now start in upper     table, not 19!

Use at your own risk. I shall not be liable in any way for loss or damage of any kind resulting from using the information contained in this document, this includes loss of goodwill, game stoppage, game failure or any other type of malfunction.     Even though I've never experienced any problems/errors creating OR editing my Civs, I cannot be held responsible in ANY way if you end up damaging your pc/game or anything related to it. As far as I know, a lot of people do this without encountering any problems at all. You shouldn't either as long as you do it correctly. =============================================================================== 4. - *Download a Free Hexadecimal Editor!* =============================================================================== 1. You'll need a hex editor before doing anything else!    A free hex editor can be found at:    hXXp://www.chmaas.handshake.de/delphi/freeware/xvi32/xvi32.htm    Direct download link:    hXXp://www.handshake.de/user/chmaas/delphi/download/xvi32_231.zip ________________________ |Info about XVI32 2.4    | |(C) 2002 Christian Maas | |chmaas[at]handshake.de  | |    chmaas.handshake.de | `------------------------` Other Free Hex Editors: hXXp://www.hhdsoftware.com/hexeditor.html For help on using the Hex Editor go to - C:Program FilesHex EditorXVI32U.HLP =============================================================================== 5. - *Instructions* =============================================================================== When you've got your free hex editor working; 2. Open up one of your pre-made Custom Civilizations e.g. Swordsman.civ    from the following folder: C:SierraEmpire EarthUsersdefaultCivilizations If your editing an expansion Custom Civ, use folder: C:SierraEmpire Earth - The Art of ConquestUsersdefaultCivilizations 3. When you've opened your civ, the first value in the file I don't know what    it is. You then get 3 spaces, then your civ name e.g.                           _______ Refer to B              |bonuses   __|__   ____civ name___|amount |     | |               | V     V V               V _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ |?| | | |S|w|o|r|d|s|m|a|n|?| ````````````````````````````` B_____________________________________________________________________________     The first 4 bytes are an integer value, which tells the game how long your civ name is (and thus where the name stops and where the bonuses start). So for instance if you civ is called  "HelloWorld" (10 bytes) then your file would start with: 0A|00|00|00 (notice that the number 10 is represented in hex as "0A"). - Contributed by barkin (barkin[at]sympatico.ca) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------     That name is the one that is shown when you LOAD the civ, so if you want you can use a special trick to make your civ name invisible. Where your name is, simply replace the CODE not the text with A0, this is ALT 0160 on the keypad. Your civilization name only goes invisible when you have confirmed the selection of your civilization. So the enemy cant see your civilization via the tributes screen. :)     The value straight after your civ name, (?) above, is the number of bonuses you have selected, so if you select civ pop, cit speed and bomber speed then this value will be 03.     The values after the name are your civ bonuses, for example if you see 86 surrounded by zero's, press Ctrl F here, and type 8600 and it will search the table for which bonus it is. Remember, if you just see a 2 digit bonus e.g. 44, just type in search 4400. The zero's always goes AFTER. When you have found your values, just replace them with another value from the table. -What order are the bonuses in?     The bonuses are in the order of which you picked them, so if you pick a tank bonus, then a bombers bonus, the tank bonus will be the first bonus when viewed in the hex editor. =============================================================================== 6. - *Cheating with Hex Civs* (NOPE) =============================================================================== Wrong,     You cannot cheat by adding extra bonuses, if you overspend your 100 civilization points the game will simply reject the bonuses which you can't afford when it loads it. And you'll end up with a crappy civilization.     Also if you hack the civilization (this can also done with a trainer) into tricking the game that you haven't overspent your points, you will get a message like this: "Player 'YOURNAME' has a civilization named 'YOURCIVNAME.CIV' which is not compatible with the server's ('YOURNAME')." And your civilization will not load, at all.     So, don't even try it... Though it is rumoured that you can overspend your 100 points and play other players without that message being displayed, note the word "rumoured". If anyone has any details on how to do this, drop me an email. =============================================================================== 7. - *CIVILIZATION BONUSES DATA TABLE* =============================================================================== ______________________________________________________________________________ Name of Unit                          |Cost| Bonus Type            | Hex Code | --------------------------------------+----+-----------------------+----------| Aircraft -

What is the hex code for civ bonus Infantry - Ranged | 20% Armor? A1. Using the table above in the guide we can see it is "8402". Q2. Does 00 always go BEFORE or AFTER the rest civ bonus code? A2. ALWAYS after, check the Aircraft - Fighter codes in the table. There isn't      a single bonus which starts with 00. The only one that comes close is      Civ - General - 50% Conversion Resistance which has code "1000". Q3. Does it matter which order you put the civ bonuses in? A3. Nope, put tank bonuses first and aircraft after, they'll still load no      matter which order you put them in. Q4. Is it easier to build a civ from scratch, or make one in EE and edit it? A4. ALWAYS edit one you've made in the ee civ editor, it's MUCH easier! Q5. Can I cheat using hexadecimal edited civs? A5. Nope. Q6. Can I put more than one of the same bonus in my civ? A6. Yes, you can increase the speed of your citizens TWICE by simply replacing      two bonuses with the citizen speed bonus. This can be done with any bonus      of your choosing! Q7. How can I work out the name of the civilization with just the hex code? A7. Easy, just type or replace the code into the hex editor and it should      appear on the right as letters. Eg: a = 61, b = 62, c = 63, A = 41.      Keep in mind they are case sensitive! Q8. Who made this guide, and how can I contact him/her? A8. Me, Oblivion.
