Steadily on the road to TSR 2.0! A welcome to a new team member and a new structure for Nod. Tiberian Sun: Reborn August 2016 Update Hey everyone! We have said TSR 2.0 was happening, and it is! That said, the team has a couple of updates they would like to fill you in on. New Team Addition First and foremost, a welcome to our newest team member. An experienced and talented artist, @Sentry has come on board to contribute to the project. Sentry will be providing new models and structures to Reborn, and is already showing quality work! As you can see, new buildings are planned to be included in 2.0. Purchase Terminals In more contributions, @Mauler has provided new and modified Purchase Terminals for Nod and GDI. As part of the visual overhaul for 2.0, every thing from vehicles and buildings right down to the PCTs themselves will be seeing improvements. Not only that, but Mauler has something else to show! Although you may already have a good guess from looking at the Nod screen. Nod Tech Center Another new building which you can expect to see in the upcoming version - the Nod Tech Center! Modeled by @Mauler, the Tech Center will be tied to Nod's higher-tier units such as the Cyborg Commando, making this a vital structure on full-arsenal maps. The layout itself is done, both interior and exterior. The model has been provided and will be seeing a full texture soon. More to come! Great things are in store for the new version. There is much more happening behind the scenes, and we're excited to show you those as they finish! Tiberian Sun: Reborn 2.0 will be worth the wait! Stay tuned for more updates and news from the team.

BATTLEFIELD 2: PROJECT REALITY A free standalone game with great cooperative gameplay! Some of us W3D Hub staff members (and our friends) have been playing Battlefield 2: Project Reality these last couple of months every now and then, and would like to invite members of the W3D Hub community to join in on the fun and play with us! The game is a standalone total conversion of Battlefield 2 (2005) and is completely FREE! You do not need to own Battlefield 2! Thinking about joining us? Already have the game set up? Want to see Wallywood attack an enemy tank with a shovel? Leave us a reply and join the fun! GAME SETUP INSTRUCTIONS: Download and install Battlefield 2: Project Reality! (click the image under "Mod Downloads", then get the "PR:BF2 v1.3.5 Full" client) Set up an offline account (choose a nickname). (decline if the launcher first asks you to make an online account, then you'll see the offline option) Make sure your game is up-to-date! (the current game version is 1.3.9.0) Download and install Zee's mod! (this changes a few things so that the game is easier to play with less people) Download and install Evolve! (a simple LAN program which we use to connect everyone to our server) Add AZ-Stalker and ZeeHypnotist to your friends list on Evolve. (so we can add you into the party's room) Join AZ-Stalker's Party on Evolve. (one of us has to invite you there first, so don't worry if you don't see it yet) Connect to the W3D Hub TeamSpeak server at ts.w3dhub.com! (you don't need a microphone as long as you can listen in and respond via the in-game text chat) Join the Zee Hive channel. (because that's where all of the awesome things happen) PLAY! Here's an alternate download for Zee's mod if you're having trouble with the individual archive overwrites: [ Zee's Mod 09-08-2016 ] This version is installed by just dropping the folders into the designated location (easy!) but the download itself is about 450mb in size. EXTRA NOTES AND TIPS: - We do not intend on playing with people who are negative or have been causing trouble around W3D Hub or its game servers. We always try to keep up a positive, fun and relaxing atmosphere while playing, so please act accordingly if you do get in a game with us. We have cooperative fun, we do not play competitively. - You will not be able to play online or with anyone who doesn't have Zee's mod, but we do keep backups of the original files so just ask if you need them. - When setting up Zee's Mod, you'll have to open the game's individual archive files and then drag-drop-overwrite the mod files into each of them (about 4 times). - Don't update your game after you've already played with us. That could brake Zee's mod and you'd be one version ahead of the rest of us. - If you see AZ-Stalker, Zee Hypnotist and Wallywood in the Zee Hive channel on TeamSpeak, we're most likely playing so join in! - Make sure to download the game via the torrent link, it's much faster that way. - We have a Skype group going for notifications about when we'll be playing. Do NOT use that group for chatting. We do not want constant notifications. - Feel free to ask for help regarding anything in this thread! - Did you know we can build base structures and defenses in game?

I will joining in on this as well.

Why not just make the MAD tank slightly faster? It's has the power to damage a whole base. If MADs win allies could lose most their base. I don't think a demo can knock out multiple structures. Also there's response time of the allies. I had a successful MAD rush because we we were far away from the main allied rush. Sure we lost FTs and a CY. But the allied rush couldn't retreat fast enough and they lost barracks and WF. The MAD is not a rush vehicle (neither are demos). They are best a sneak attack vehicle. Basic Blitzkrieg distract and push. I've used a MAD as a distraction for a rush and also a rush as a diversion for MADs. The idea is that all the allied focus is on killing the mads, often that escorts are ignored. Allies lose a lot of meds and phases just to kill a mad. Either way if MADs are killed or survive the escort force is often ignored. Also consider this if mads are escorted by mammoths wouldn't leaving the mammoths alive after a successful MAD attack be game breaking? --------------------- Bottom line If you want the MAD to be more tactical Just boost its speed and allow it some hill climbing so it can be versatile.

I was pondering at some point, if the APB models and maps could be accessed in Gmod, so I could make Red Alert style "Vicious Cycle of [map name]" videos.

Some more from yesterday.

Looking into it, I used to be quite the pilot in Battlefield Vietnam and BF2 so I could probably at least be a bit of an asset.

Roommates suck but they beat the shit out of being homeless, if you do decide to try and get some roommates try and get people you like at least, also make sure to print off some housing contracts that way you can kick them out if they start driving you nuts. Here is a basic template: http://www.dca.ga.gov/housing/specialneeds/programs/documents/C-2SampleLEASE.pdf It might be a good idea to include things like "If you have someone else living with you for over a week that they have to start paying rent" beings they'll be draining your utilities then.
