About this mod
2 lightweight scripts to launch Anno 1800 with/without mods by just one double-click.
- Permissions and credits
Do you play multiplayer with people who still use Vanilla? Does it anoy you to rename your mods folder every time you want to switch between clean and modded Anno?
Here comes a tool that does this for you without a single click more needed than when launching the game the standard way. It consists of 2 files:
Double-click Modded.bat to enable mods (if they are disabled) and launch Anno 1800.
Double-click Vanilla.bat to disable mods (if they are enabled ) and launch Anno 1800.
No installation required. The only thing you need is the original python35.dll. It is included in the modloader's download as "python35_ubi.dll". Make sure this one is in the Bin/Win64 folder and has the filename "python35_ubi.dll".
If Anno 1800 is not installed in the standard location (C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games\Anno 1800), you need to change the paths in the .bat files (you can edit them in a text editor).
The .bat files are simple Windows Batch Scripts. Place them wherever you want on your PC. Open them in a text editor to see how they work. No impact on performance at all.
What they do isn't renaming the mods folder, but exchanging the python35.dll delivered with the modloader and the original one. The one that is inactive is renamed to python35_ubi.dll or python35_mod.dll respectively.
For maximal comfort, you can use desktop links to the .bat scripts (see image). This has the advantage that you can set an icon for it in order to distinguish the two. Two icons are included in the download.
