After many years of being away from the LW/FW world, I was digging through my old files I made for Freeway Warrior (incomplete major expansion of Highway Holocaust, mainly) and found my FWAC mods and patches, including my personal bugfix for the rifle ammo issue (see this thread) and versions that provide more (but still logical/balanced) starting gear choices.
I also have a version (v1.1 MOD2) I did to go with the revamped missile weapon system I developed for my "Freeeway Warrior Expanded" project, but haven't posted this yet as it won't make sense until I also post the system/rules to go with it. If anyone is interested in me hurrying up to post it though, let me know.
My tweaks of FWAC are attached below:
FWAC v1.1 - Rifle Ammo Fix
fwac-ammofix.zip (147.72 KB)
FWAC v1.1 MOD1 - Rifle Ammo Fix + More Starting Gear Choices
fwac-moregear.zip (147.73 KB)
I went with v1.1 for the bug fix, and have appended "MOD" for versions that incorporate non-vanilla book changes, however slight. Book purists can stick to my latest version without "MOD" in the title, while those interested in further tweaks can grab any "MOD" (e.g. MOD1 = more starting gear choices) they wish.
I've made sure the "About" box in my tweaked versions give enough info so you can always tell what version you are using.
I'm open to feedback and suggestions, especially for the "More Starting Gear" version if anyone thinks something shouldn't be there or if there's an item you always thought you should be able to start with logically but couldn't. I am tentatively looking at slightly expanding the utility a little to include a few features found in LWAC but not here (the idea of a "safe keeping" store and buttons to easily "drop" items, for example).
I hope everyone's okay with me posting these here, but I've been thinking after finding all my stuff that it is a bit selfish not to share what I've done over the years, and since it seems the original FWAC creator never updated it and likely disappeared as I did in 2008!
Full credit to the original project author for the code this is all tweaked from, and of course the amazing Project Aon for giving me digital versions of such a huge part of my childhood.
