  1. Looks nice. Are you planning to smooth out the terrain edgeflow marked in red below to be more like the edgeflow marked in green below? The model/alpha blend curves will look much less squarish, giving the map more of a custom/sculpted look (rather than the "I z-pushed a plane" look), and it'll reduce the places where confusion arises from "can I climb here"? I'd also recommend you try working with slight elevation differences within the bases, especially considering they're so spread out. It goes a long way, visually, and that slight uneven feel can make combat that much more interesting.
  2. "Expensive loss" has always been a risk of LSTs and transports in general, but players who want to try it may consider that risk worth it.
  3. #2, King of multiple hills. -Far away from spawns, so it shouldn't be impossible. -Different from current domination maps. -A unique objective.
  4. It's nice that a lot of the map issues have were ironed out so that the map makers can get back to actually crafting new content.
  5. I can also help you learn mapping, MPRA2. Do you have Teamviewer? Send me a PM if you're interested.
  6. The repair tool range was originally longer, which allowed technicians to repair barracks mcts from outside the building.
  7. Actually it was intentional because I wanted to respawn and remove the hedgehogs with an engineer. Funny capture though.
  8. That will probably require creating a completely different model, which will need to be placed map by map on all these maps. That's not a huge task...
  9. I wouldn't mess with the package cache. Try repairing instead. To do this, go to the button that you would normally use to update but hit repair instead.
  10. If you get that error, try installing this. Sorry it wasn't included in the patch. https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/download-visual-studio-vs#d-visual-c
  11. "solved by crouching" If you're wanting to bunnyhop, though, I say glhf.
  12. This one takes me back. Can they figure out how to get up here???
  13. The last time I played C&C games over dialup, I was a teenager, probably half my current age. I remember needing to fiddle with it a lot to get it working. And this was back when dialup was the thing. Nowadays I'd have no idea what to expect, or if it'd even work, considering the patches that the games have gone through to add support for the more progressive internet forms.
  14. If the cell towers are too far away for a stable connection, tethering won't do much good. For dialup to work, you'd probably need a dialup modem and the works. For your GF to access the world, and more importantly, you, she should probably work towards the means to gain an access point.
  15. I've never had trouble, and my ping hangs around 200 the whole time. With mammoth tanks I stick to the road, generally. Everything else I've been able to navigate through tree clusters with relative ease.
  16. Use free aim in conjunction with infantry combat.
  17. If there are a lot of trees on a map, it'll be difficult to remember the placement of every tree.
  18. In close quarters you don't have to lead the target much at all, and the jumping penalties are minute. Tanya is probably better at range than she is in close quarters.
  19. Are you just trolling at this point? knowing the time I invested on this mod, your question sounds like an insult. Not trolling at all. Renegade X is composed of my old staff, if they don't make the switch I will just give them all the source material of the mod to make it happen then. Your original declaration sounds pretty caustic itself. It doesn't come from well-informed reasoning, and in fact none of this reasoning is even present in your post. From one guy who spent a lot of time on w3d to another guy who spent a lot of time on w3d, some people want to keep working on games for w3d and that is okay. They have fun doing it and many others have fun playing it. Let them have their fun. Please?
  20. That would be me I never leaked Gamma though. From what I remember, you leaked an old, not working version of it. RC86 perhaps?
