Voids DC Balance

Voyds DC Balance Mod v 0.1.4
by: VoydAngel (and Friends)

Claimer:
I have included in this distro a .dll file and module file that will enable your DC game manager. I did not make these files. As a matter of fact, I am using them without permission. They were made my a guy who goes by the name of "Corsix" in the Relic forums. He is an amazing asset to the game, the forums and the modding community in general. As another matter of fact, I used his mod tools to make this mod. So:  THANK YOU Corsix!  If you would like me to remove said files from my d/l, please just ask, and I will be glad to. Also if anyone has any suggestions: you can contact me at: voydangel [at] hotmail [dot] com

Disclaimer:
As far as I can tell, there is a problem with the extra 2 files included in the mod that make the Game Manager work. As I said before this is temporary as I am expecting Relic to fix the game manager in the first patch which will make these files no longer needed and hence fix said problem. The problem is that you may get "sync" errors and therefore not be able to play multiplayer games with those two files installed. To get the game back to normal you dont need to delete the "Voyds_DC_Balance.module" file or the "Voyds_DC_Balance" folder, just the "WXPMod_DCMod.dll" file and the "AAAAAAAAAA.module" file. I have asked for a little help with this problem from the files creator, but havn't heard back quite yet. My apologies for the incovenience.

Thanks again! and on with the show...
