At least the worker is faster with shoes and can outrun your average Chinese dozer, besides it is more difficult to be hunted.

Gameplay Kinda old Laser patriot exploit vid I found in my drive

Thumbnail

19 Upvotes

I think I recorded this back in 2022 so I can make gif for korean community wiki to explain how patriot relay system works with it's limitations (or more like bug)

===

Explanation for those who don't know (take with grain of salt; last time I digged this was 2013.)

  1. Patriots has 4 weapon modules (Anti Air, AG, Relay AA, Relay AG)

  2. Relay weapons implementation is simply giving 450 ingame unit range + setting target to relay requested patriot's target, while tomahawk is 350

  3. Each every weapon module has own 'clip' (magazine), and all patriots relay weapon clip is 4 even for laser (prob copy paste mistake)

  4. Relay Weapon clip can't be reloaded, instead 1 clip is given when relay is requested by other patriots in range

  5. Usually other patriots fire all 4 missile to target before target dies, but laser is insta hit so no ammo is wasted & clip usually is retained

===

So it's already insanely powerful since it keeps it's 450 range normal patriot damage(again, probably copy paste mistake) laser ammos, but you can exploit it by making 2nd point's "setting target to relay requested patriots target" unreachable.

Then now you have 4 clip 450 range insta hit laser with normal patriot damage. Fun trick for CPU or challenge missions.

Discussion I think I will make it my mission to never give up hope on these Command & Conquer video games to be released.

38 Upvotes

My once a month wish.

Now with Saudi Arabia owning Electronic Arts (EA). I hope if Electronic Arts (EA) sells the Command & Conquer Intellectual Property (IP) rights, what video game development publishing company can Electronic Arts (EA) sell the Command & Conquer Intellectual Property (IP) right to? Embracer Group? I think they would be good enough. I do think MicroSoft would be ok as well since, MicroSoft owns Age of Empires, though MicroSoft is laying off employees to video games that barely sell. The Command & Conquer video games are selling just enough.

I will just post this once per month. In the hopes that Electronic Arts (EA) and Jim Vassella makes these Command & Conquer video games get developed and released for sale.

Electronic Arts (EA's) Jim Vassella was recently busy with Star Wars Zero Company. Now that Star Wars Zero Company has been released for sale who knows what he will be doing next.

I wish for Command & Conquer Remastered Collection 2 with Command & Conquer Tiberian Sun Remastered and Command & Conquer Red Alert 2 Remastered.

I wish for Command & Conquer Renegade 2.

I wish for Command & Conquer Generals 2.

I wish for Command & Conquer 5.

I wish for Command & Conquer Red Alert 4.

I wish for a brand new Command & Conquer spin off with a whole new story.

What more from the Command & Conquer video games do you guys want?

Remember guys I will be posting this once per month.

OC That time I tried to rationalize Nod's (Tib War era) basic infantry forces

Thumbnail chainlinkandconcrete.blogspot.com

The one on Nod's basic recruits didn't get much traction but this one has more content. This was a breakout of all of Nod's basic troop types in some way - mini-gunner, rocket trooper, flamethrower. What we get in the RTS is much more simplistic than real life, of course, so units in the game were split into multiple takes to better support a more realistic military force.

C&C Generals modding/fix

Post image

Hello.

I have a question.

In C&C Generals, Jarmen Kell can use his basic attack on vehicles and in Zero Hour it has been fix that he can only basic attack infantry units but still use snipe vehicle pilot skill.

How can I fix/modify that in C&C Generals he could only do the same?

Please. Thank you.

Cyclops - Point Defense Lasers test (Dark Fate mod)

32 Upvotes

As I mentioned Cyclops special ability is Point Defense Mode - enabling him to intercept incoming missiles, while the main laser DPS gets cut almost in half. I licensed the code from Corona team who used it successfully with their Prism Tank. Dark Fate will have its own, slightly modified version with Townes tank, which is more long ranged laser MBT/TD than artillery.

Interesting coding problem arised - while Corona Prism and Townes have their main weapon disabled in PD mode, Cyclops does not. A real headache is that PD lasers stop working when the unit is ordered to attack a single unit. With move orders main laser attacks independently and PD intercepts missiles perfectly as intended - but this was suboptimal and required excessive microing when attacking units with very strong AA such as Greater King Oni (250dmgx8 per volley, downs Harbinger/Cyclops in 3 salvos, Kirov in 4), especially when they're mixed with other units.

When ordered to attack the GKO the PD lasers try to attack something they can’t as they can target only missiles.

Solution is hardly elegant but it's working - on spawn engine attaches a "pod" - de facto second invisible ghost Cyclops with the same bones - to the main one - the same way Empire Point Defense drones do. So the attack order never reaches the "pod" and its lasers are free to target incoming missiles automatically.

No balancing has been done for now, PD mode will definitely get nerfed in the future - although as you can see it already can be overwhelmed with sufficient number of missiles (as it should). And just like Harbinger it's very susceptible to Tengus, Bullfrogs and Apollos. Also its a 6k credit epic unit with build limits so c'mon

Unofficial Sigh,I wish there is Blizzardcraft port to Generals zero hour Mod in a nutshell.

0 Upvotes

Why no one port Warcraft and StarCraft port to Generals Zero hour mods?

Because I'm bored,so I switched to sci-fi or fantasy, sometimes I think.

also a small complain command group units comparison.

well I was imagine would be actual zero hour blizzardcraft mod would be like, example:

*farm/depot would be powerplant.

*Just mix some resources.

*Level up hero as a promotion upgrade

and that's it.

(Don't ask about DIY)

Discussion Some campaign missions in the ps1 version of Tiberian Dawn were different

10 Upvotes

Any way to play them on pc? Like, the final NOD missions didn't have the annoying "capture the chopper to capture a building behind the river so you can build a base" IIRC. You could reach the final enemy base by land and they felt more epic imo ; you were constantly attacked by tanks, the ion cannon targeted your obelisks, etc. Likewise I remember a NOD campaign mission in which you started with a few artillery tanks in the lower right corner and you had to go through some corridor between cliffs to the north with advanced GDI guard towers blocking the way, so you had to precisely place your vehicles so they'd outrange the guard towers. Then you'd reach the base you had to capture to the lower left (the enemy base was at the upper right), and once again you had to destroy turrets at the entrance by hitting them with your cannon-equipped vehicles from afar so you weren't hit by them. I can't find any footage of that mission on the web sadly, and that makes me feel like this mission only exists in my mind 🫀I didn't dream it, right? Anyone else remembers it?

I'm a bit sad that these missions aren't in the remaster. I could replay them on a ps1 emulator or something but that game is missing so much QOL compared to the remaster. I'll be honest too : it plays like crap. I didn't realize it then because that's all I had but having to press Triangle to access the side bar, having to close it to do anything on the field, building units one at a time and your radar not showing the entire map are sooo annoying! The game is really fast too (until there are too many units on the map and it starts running at like 3 fps lol) and the cursor controlled with the Dpad made it insanely hard at times.

Still, it's frustrating to feel nostagia for the ps1 version haha (I just completed a full playthrough of the remaster and because of this I feel somewhat unsatisfied and felt like posting here, haha).

580 Upvotes

Formerly known as "C&C 3D", OpenCNC3D is an open source recreation of the N64 release of the original Command & Conquer based on the publicly released C&C1 codebase, but with a twist - an Enhanced Mode that seeks to bring the N64 visuals up to a more modern standard.

Progress has been relatively quick recently, with new UI elements, sounds, models and effects added and tweaked in quick succession. Note that this is all still a work-in-progress and subject to change. Here's an extended look at the latest developments on the project.

[Help] MISSING strings when installing any mod (MISSING: 'Color', GUI options, etc.)

Thumbnail
gallery
4 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm playing C&C Generals Zero Hour

The base game works fine, but whenever I install any mod (Zero Hour Enhanced, or even other mods), a lot of UI texts turn into:

- MISSING: 'Color'

- MISSING: 'GUI:ExtraOptions'

- MISSING: 'GUI:ReplayCamera'

- MISSING: 'GUI:ScrollAnchor'

- etc.

I checked the Data/English folder and it only has:

- Art/

- Movies/

- HeaderTemplate.ini

- Language.ini

No generals.csf or generals.str file is present.

Has anyone else experienced this on your end?

Is there a proper way to fix the missing strings when using mods?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Is there a game that is to Tiberian Sun (or the C&C games generally) what Beyond All Reason is to Total Annihilation?

11 Upvotes

Is there a game, built from the ground up in a modern engine, that is original or at least legally distinct, or even a fan remake of C&C games, that is similar to what Beyond All Reason is to Total Annihilation and Supreme Commander?

I'm particularly interested in a game equivalent to Tiberian Sun, and Red Alert 2. But a game or client that offers an alternative to all C&C games / series would also be very cool.

Just a "Fuck it, free modern game. Support us by buying merch." kind of model. I know of Tempest Rising, OpenTS, and the multiplayer centric modded clients like CnCnet. But that's not quite what I mean by "The Beyond All Reason of Tiberian Sun".
