DESCRIPTION:

If an Emperor's Hammer custom craft patch is installed without first making proper backups of key files, the *only* way of restoring XWA 2.02 to its unmodified version (aside from this patch) is to uninstall it, re-install it, and re-patch it to 2.02. Attempting to simply copy back the needed files from the XWA 1.0 CD will cause corruption, as several of the files on hard-disk were modified by the 2.02 patch.

This patch has been compiled to alleviate this difficulty.

============================================================

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

Extract this ZIP to your XWA folder, overwriting any existing files. Be SURE to extract using the included directory structure. (This means WinZip's "Use Folder Names" option is on.)

If you choose to do it manually, here are the files and their locations:
     SHIPLIST.TXT - main XWA folder
     SPECDESC.TXT - main XWA folder
      STRINGS.TXT - main XWA folder
XWINGALLIANCE.EXE - main XWA folder
  SPACECRAFT0.LST - FLIGHTMODELS folder
   EQUIPMENT0.LST - FLIGHTMODELS folder
