Mafia 2 – Empire Bay Mod 1.3.1 Update

A small 70mb update patch for The Empire Bay Mod by Nemesis7675

Included in a separate archive is an in-game English gui patch by m.

Sidenote:

Race locations in Empire bay mod: I had a small jpeg pic in my Empire mod folder, I think it’s for the Empire mod ,so i’ve included it in the archive,could be wrong but might be useful.

I left some text files with the archive ,they are translated from various Russian sites and might be helpful.

Parts of the mod have Russian voices probably added by Nemesis ,would be nice to have English audio but Nemesis said he stopped working on this after the v1.3.1 patch.

Anyway i thought  it would be good to give it a more permanent home here at mafiamods.

Installation:

Installation can be problematic as all instructions have been in Russian .

The basic origianl info was to make sure you have update5 installed and to remove Joe’s adventure dlc folder or mod won’t work.

The problem is the original instructions say to install the “update 5 full Russian” version.

This is what i did to get the mod working before:

I got the empire mod v1.3.1 working with english version.

I made duplicate of two ‘ru’ folders.

1: dlc_datarussian

copy to: dlc_dataenglish

2: cnt_empire_baysds_ru

copy to: cnt_empire_baysds_en

Not sure if that’s the best way but it worked for me.

Someone else said to try editing some text in the the ‘content’ file ,maybe changing names from ru to en or vice versa ,anyway the above

info worked ok for me as far as i can remember ,it was a while ago when i tried it.

There is some more install help on that old mafiasceneDOTnet  link above ,maybe some tips that might help.

P.S..Don’t forget! You have to remove ‘cnt_joes_adventures’ folder from dlc folder.

Backup your game folder(or files) before making any changes ,you can then play around with the ru/en files and see if you can get it working.

Changelog:

general improvements to original mod.
