INDEPENDENCE WAR 2: EDGE OF CHAOS POG SCRIPT SDK.
V0.9 Beta, January 2002

***********************************************************
INTRODUCTION
***********************************************************

This Software Development Kit ("SDK" ) contains programs, data and documentation that will enable you to write scripted content in the Pog scripting language for Independence War 2: Edge Of Chaos.

It is not intended to be a complete reference guide, but it should contain all the information needed to start creating your own missions and scenarios.

Before you start modifying ("modding") the game it's a essential to ensure you have the latest patch for the game.

Versions of the game from f14.6 (EOC Patch 2) have enhanced support for modding, making it easier to distribute and install your mods.

You can download the latest patch here.

***********************************************************
SUPPORT
***********************************************************

This is a beta release of the SDK and documentation, and is not supported by Particle Systems or Infogrames.

Pog Scripting queries may be placed on the US Infogrames Independence War forum

***********************************************************
THE RESOURCE.ZIP FILE
***********************************************************

If you're going to be doing a lot of modding, it's wise to extract the contents of the resource.zip file that's located in the folder where the game is installed.

The resource.zip contains most of the game's resources, including 3D objects, textures, graphics, etc, and extracting its contents will allow you to easily change any of the files you wish.

The extracted files in the folder will take precedence over the files in the resource.zip. If you wish the game to use any of the original files in the resource.zip, then simply delete the corresponding files from their folders.

You can extract the contents of the resource.zip by using any standard zip program, such as WinZip.

You should extract the contents to the same folder where the resource.zip is located, and ensure that the pathnames in the resource.zip are used.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Don't overwrite any files that are already there, otherwise you may overwrite updated files previously installed by a patch.

For clarity the documentation included in this SDK assumes you have extracted the contents of the resource.zip
