The package isn't just the code. It contains everything that Microsoft used in game (or most of it, at least).
There are audio files (.wav), textures, .ase model files, among many others. You'd just need to do a bit of searching.
Sorry about the communication error.

Also, more gameplay related, is there a way to force MechCommander 2 into an aspect ratio/resolution? I remember you could with Homeworld 2 using command lines, but I haven't been able to find anything similar for MC2.

Edit: XNA build also not needed anymore for that new update. Just a quick note.

If you know how to make AI brains (or if you just use the tool), pay attention to this. You are going to learn custom tactical orders.
- Find the brain file (\data\missions\warriors)
- Open the brain file in Notepad.
- Find this line (it will not be exactly the same as this, but it should be similar):
//// BattleTactics tacticalParams = 0 + TACORDER_PARAM_PURSUE;
- Go to the end (before the semicolon) and add a space, plus, and another space ( + ).
//// BattleTactics tacticalParams = 0 + TACORDER_PARAM_PURSUE + ;
- Paste in your new TACORDER_PARAM code.
//// BattleTactics tacticalParams = 0 + TACORDER_PARAM_PURSUE + TACORDER_PARAM_OBLITERATE;
- If you wish to add another, add another space, plus and space.

From that group of released missions, I suggest maybe taking a look at R30 first and updating all the missions to work with R30 of MC2X, as that allows many extra coding options and additional tools and inventory options (want 300x300 maps?) But if you are releasing before grabbing MC2X then releasing all of them at once in a campaign file would be neat.

Starport
A MechCommander 2 mission designed for Wolfman's Unofficial expansion pack (revision 35) or Wolfman's MC2X Stand Alone (revision 29)
Prepare for the most epic mission of your life! You and your allies control the east side of the Grande River. Your enemies control the west. Your industry and the enemies industry are competitive. The once magnificent city in the middle has become a battle ground. Whoever controls the river will gain a huge advantage thanks to the planet's convenience for space traffic. Although out gunned, you and your allies are now preparing to attack. It is up to you to secure the Grande River Starport!

Variants included in this package:

DISCLAIMER(Read this! For your own sake!):
For the record, this mission is possible. Just... hard. Also, this mission is designed for unlimited ammunition set to on. By the way, if you don't read the disclaimer published on this post, you can't hold me accountable for anything that screws up (it shouldn't, but there is always a chance). Feedback is always welcome!
NOTICE:
Do not, I repeat do NOT screw up which download is which. If you use the expansion, download that one. If you use the stand alone, download that one. If you screw the downloads up, you take ownership of that. Not me.

All I have to do is never assign PBrain as the player brain file. Because it glitches. Other than that, all I have to do is make sure it runs as intended.
For the record, no matter how hard it may seem, this mission is in fact possible. Planning to upload some more soon.

At the moment, I have my loadout as this: 2 Dire Wolves, 1 Cyclops, 2 Mad Cats, 2 Summoners. Both Dire Wolves are Alpha Wolves (if this isn't allowed then I'll change it to Dire Wolf Z or another custom loadout), the Cyclops is filled with SSRMs and Pulse Lasers with X-Gauss, 2 Mad Cats with dual CERLPLs and dual Firewalls, and 2 Thors with dual CERPPCs, 1 X-Gauss, and 1 HFD. My pilots for this operation are Gunner and Wolfman for the Dire Wolves, Ghost for the Cyclops, Nail and DeathFX for the Mad Cats, and Rooster and Volaris for the Summoners. I was tempted to change out Volaris for Psycho, as Volaris has a tendency to go rouge on my troops lol. I know that Volaris should never be given Quake, ever.
So yeah I'm running the mission now. Just looking from the tac map, it looks quite tough and similar to other missions I've played on, like in Mechcommander Omnitech's Exodus (the final mission on Exodus, and also the toughest.)

Actually, it is just a multiplayer map I ripped. Alpha Wolfs are allowed., I would like it if people explored the variants I included. Also, the Alpha Wolf has many more weapons than what shows in the Mech lab.

STOP : [ASSERT 0] couldn't find the variant of a salvaged mech
I'm guessing it's just a slight bug with campaigns and stuff. I ran it with my MC2X R20, though can't wait for R30.
The Alpha Wolf is really powerful, but the Quake was a bit annoying. ECM was also quite annoying. A lot of the variants are indeed hacked/added on with tons of weaponry, but at least it wasn't as bad as when I put 30 CERPPCs on a Locust with the editing of mech variants.
Overall, keep up the good work David, can't wait for additional released missions!

Most of my Mechs are overboard with the weapons because ti gives me the ability to make you be outgunned even more so than normal. They really remove the asset of "walk, shoot"
