[Outdated] Enhanced Dat (No Decay)

For now, the data files should change the decay time of corpses to a total of 10 minutes.
Since I'm fairly new to data-editing, please let me know if there are any glitches or the like.
Especially concerning corpses decaying faster than others or corpses disappearing after 5 minutes, Thanks!



Bear in mind that everyone has to use this specific data set for functional multiplayer.

Since the Workshop doesn't support dat-file modding currently, you have to install it manually:

• Backup the empires2_x1_p1.dat and empires2_x2_p1.dat files found in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Age2HD\resources\_common\dat folder
  
• Open the mod's folder (click Open Directory in the in-game mod manager) and browse to the bottom of the folder structure.
  
• Copy the two files found there into the C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Age2HD\resources\_common\dat folder, replacing the original ones.
  
• empires2_x1_p1.dat is used for the basegame whereas empires2_x2_p1.dat is for the dlcs.
  
• Should you want to uninstall the mod, simply replace the files with the files from your backup.
  
• If the mod gets updated, the manual installation has to be redone for the update to come into effect.
