This fix addresses all of the problems people had with the DLC/Shop/Offline play.
Tested on Standalone install + Steam.
This fix enables 4 DLC packs for game and for editor. Additionally, All original units that were available in Vanilla but were locked in Collection are available in the editor again.
This is a repack, meaning that all of the resources are now available for your modding pleasure.
You can create campaign and multiplayer missions as well! resource.mod folder now has a "map" folder which is fully compliant with the pak map folder structure.
Important! Verify that you have VS2015 x64 redist installed. Otherwise you will get "the program can't start because vcruntime140.dll is missing" error. Get it
HERE.
Also, if you have a fresh install, run the game first, so that your profile folder would be generated correctly in My Documents.
Instructions:
Code:
1. Unpack the archive to any folder on hard drive.
2. Copy "resource.mod", "DLCFix.bat" and "fixdata" to your Majesty 2 Collection root folder (the same folder that has the executables).
- If you have a steam version, your path will look similar to this: "Steam\steamapps\common\Majesty 2 Collection"
- If you have a non-steam version, your path will be whatever your settings were when you installed the game.
3. Run "DLCFix.bat".
4. Go to the "profiles" folder in Majesty 2 profile folder. Your profiles are listed as "0", "1" et cetera. If this is a fresh install, you probably only have "0".
in the profile folder open the "x.profile" file, where x is your profile. In the file, find the following data:
{shop
{login "notblank"}
{auto_connect 1}
{visual_packs
}
}
Change it to (you can simply copy paste from this readme):
{shop
{login ""}
{auto_connect 0}
{visual_packs
}
}

HOTFIX 1:
- Remapped map data to point at correct resource version. This was causing problems for some users.
HOTFIX 2:
- Remapped original, pp, exp1/2 data to point at correct resource version. Now these maps are fully moddable with MK units/buildings.
- Added missing gui file for mk magic bazaar that caused the mk bazaar to appear empty.
- Fixed the spells not showing up/working correctly for mk temple.
Cheers.
