New Apps:
Image ArmyMen Map Updater (AMU)
This is a small app that checks for map updates at a certain time. If a new update is detected, it will prompt you, if no update is found, it will not run. Your antivirus may quarantine this app so make sure you add it to the list of exceptions of necessary. To fix this, disable your antivirus software, reinstall AMU, then add it to the list of exceptions in your antivirus software, then turn your antivirus back on. AMU is located in C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Roaming\AMU

Image AMU Scheduler 1.01
The scheduler allows you to change when you want the updater (AMU) to check for updates.

Image HQ Skinner 1.00
This app allows you change your game HQ skins to whatever you want easily without unpacking anything. It does all the unpacking and packing automatically. It also includes the classic skins made by OMC-Stormer and a couple extra ones. It also has the option to extract your current HQ skins.

Image ModRemover 1.01
The ModRemover will only be installed if you choose to add any of the mods during installation. It allows you to remove mods by reverting the files to their original state.



Improved:
Image The Great Battles Unlocker 2.00
The ability to unlock the great battles has been improved to an app that actually detects the game.

Game Icons
Image
Added new and improved game icons. The colors have also been toned down a bit. The file is called AMRTS Icons is located in the extras folder.



Requirements:
- You must have Administrative Permissions to install and run the apps.
- The game must be installed for other apps to run.
- The game and apps will always install to your C: drive. It may be unable to detect any other drive letter.
- Have at least Windows 7 or newer. The actual game will work in XP with no problems but AMU may or may not work properly.
- Do not manually edit or delete any version.ini files.
- Do not manually edit E]x[F maps because some are compared during the update process.

Enjoy and comment if you have questions or encounter problems.

I have a problem with this package.

Harm me this game and I had to uninstall it manually.

It's good the live update maps, but when I have the game installed on drive F,

So I do not install the maps to drive F, but into your C drive.

And choose a directory for there live Updater isn't working. idk

I don't fully understand your problem but 2 things.
1. It is not harmful but your antivirus may detect the updater as being bad.
2. You should not install your game to the F drive. It should be installed to your C drive. If your game is not installed on C, then the updater will not find your game. It will not search your entire hard drive for the game, it only checks C:\Program Files (x86)\3DO\Army Men RTS

I want to ask.

When will you issue a map to test the map updater? :DD:

I'd like to know how it works. :GAME:
