# Giants Wdefs Importer
|
||||
|
||||
This tool was created to simplify the process of importing custom Wdefs for Giants 1.502.1.
|
||||
|
||||
![Image](readme-img/screenshot.png)
|
||||
|
||||
## What it does
|
||||
|
||||
This tool:
|
||||
1. Creates a backup of your game.
|
||||
2. Downloads the requested wdefs file.
|
||||
3. Modifies GiantsMain.exe to overwrite the expected CRC value (the game won't load if there is a CRC mismatch).
|
||||
4. Starts modded Giants.
|
||||
5. Reverts everything to original state after Giants is closed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Where to find modded wdefs?
|
||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
## What about cheaters?
|
||||
|
||||
Starting 1.497, Giants features a built-in anti-cheat. It works by automatically detecting mismatching clients and kicking them if they don't use the same environment as the server.
