Stronghold: Crusader - SHCPlayer v.1.8.1 - Game mod - Download

SHCPlayer is a mod for Stronghold Crusader, created by JuGGerNaunT

Description:

SHCPlayer is a game launcher that inject plugins (mods) in Stronghold Crusader game. It works as a background service and automatically injects plugins when it finds a game process. It doens't modify game files so after you close SHCPlayer and restart the game, non modified game version will be launched.

1) Hub

This is fundamental plugin of this launcher. It patches the game to version 1.x.2. The patch fixes most common bugs and exploits. Full list of changes is available in ReadMe's changelog

2) Replay

This plugin records every skirmish game you play as a replay and save it to path_to_documets\Stronghold Crusader\Replays directory. Then you can play those replay at "Custom Scenarios/Play Replay" menu. While in replay mode Numpad+/Numpad- changes game speed up to 1000. You can share your replays with each other, but for nonstandart maps you need to share map file as well, since replay doesn't store map information.

This plugins records only skirmish games, both singleplayer and multiplayer. History mission, custom scenarios and castle builder aren't supported.

3) AIVEditor

This plugin was supporsed to be an ingame castle editor for AI, but I abandoned this idea and stoped just on AI castle viewer. Go to "Custom Scenarios/Vilalge Editor" to select AI castle to view. While in edit mode press Numpad+/Numpad- to switch between AI build steps.

4) Hotkey

This plugin add configurable hotkeys in the game. Under [Hotkey] section in Config.ini file there is a list of all available game actions and correcponding hotkeys. Some actions may override another. Specific actions (i.e. buy unit) has more priority than global (like select granary) so you can assign same key for them. Hotkeys works only in skirmish match.

Besides that plugin adds multiplier for some actions such as Shift+Click to hire x10 units or x5 market products.

5) AdvancedMap

This plugin makes minimap more convenient to use. Plugin disables minimap scrolling and downscales the image so it fit entire area. You can adjust landscape color and unit size and disable civilians on minimap in config file.

Requirements:

Stronghold Crusader HD v1.41 or Stronghold Crusader HD v1.3 (Extreme isn't supported)
