    Unauthorized Use of Maps

    It's not being concerned that it was edited to be compatible with TS, the problem is that it was an exclusive asset taken without permission. If you'd have just asked instead of helping yourself "assuming nobody would care" there would never have been a problem. Since when was it okay to just take custom assets from mods without giving any credit where it is due or at least asking first? Thanks for the response and the removal anyway. All I ask is that, in future, TI staff are contacted instead of just having it's assets ripped.
  2. Hello everybody. I haven't been active in the Command & Conquer community for some time, it's nice to see that it is still thriving and that there is plenty of online activity, with that being said, a friend of mine has brought something to my attention that I wanted to query with the current staff. In the Tiberian Sun Client there appear to be some maps that are being used that were maps that I had initially made exclusively for Twisted Insurrection. Some of these maps started off as remakes of maps from other games like Red Alert 2 such as the ones titled Rocky Road, Twinside and Redemption. I am not particularly bothered about these for the reasons stated earlier, despite the fact that they were remade from the ground up, but they are still shamelessly pulled from Twisted Insurrection with minor edits to make them compatible with Tiberian Sun, they even use the same alternative name that I gave them as opposed to the names of the maps they were based on which shows they were directly taken from the mod. My main gripe is that there is also the map Vinifera Valley which has been a Twisted Insurrection exclusive map that I created quite some time ago. It appears that it is in circulation at the moment as part of an official update to the Tiberian Sun Client , yet, no credit is given to myself or to Twisted Insurrection itself for use of the map anywhere as far as I can tell. I have checked with the active members of the Twisted Insurrection team as of the moment and, as far as we know, nobody asked permission to use these maps and no credit has been given. May I ask why this is and what has happened here? Thanks.
  3. There's a simple solution to every issue like this: Keep your opinions on others and their abilities to yourself.
  4. Hello everybody. Today we are pleased to announce the release of both Twisted Insurrection Version 0.6 and Volume 6 of our Original Soundtrack!

  5. Twisted Insurrection 0.6 Trailer (Click image to watch the trailer on YouTube) Release Date: November Twisted Insurrection is a standalone game based on a heavily modified Tiberian Sun engine. The game features a completely new in-depth storyline which puts you in an alternate timeline where the Brotherhood of Nod were victorious during the first Tiberian War rather than GDI. Along with the complete overhaul and replacing of the original game's graphics, gameplay and having it's own all new original soundtrack, Twisted Insurrection brings you an entirely new arsenal of units, infantry, aircraft and naval forces to command as either the Brotherhood of Nod or GDI in massive singleplayer or online multiplayer battles. The Twisted Insurrection client allows you to play your own way featuring hundreds of possible option combinations, preset locations and alliances and customisable themes. The game also features multiple full length campaigns for Nod, GDI, & the new GloboTech faction. Play over 50 brand new campaign missions and try your hand at challenge modes, our own reimagining of the Tiberian Dawn (Twisted Dawn as we like to call it) campaigns and more. The fate of the Earth lies dangerously unknown. Do you have what it takes to drag the shattered Global Defense Initiative out of ruin? Or will you crush all who oppose the will of Kane and his Inner Circle? The choice is yours commander. - To keep up with development and for much more information about Twisted Insurrection, be sure to follow us around the web! ● Twisted Insurrection Website: http://twistedinsurrection.net ● Twisted Insurrection Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/TwistedInsurrection ● Twisted Insurrection ModDB: http://moddb.com/mods/twisted-insurrection ● Twisted Insurrection Twitter: http://twitter.com/TwistedIns ● Twisted Insurrection YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/c/TwistedInsurrectionOfficial ● Twisted Insurrection Forum: http://ppmsite.com/forum/index.php?f=466 ● Twisted Insurrection Steam Group: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/TwistedInsurrection ● Twisted Insurrection Google+: https://plus.google.com/+TwistedInsurrectionOfficial/videos
  6. Twisted Insurrection is up for Nomination as Mod of the Year 2012. On the behalf of the team, I apology for not promoting this earlier. Voting for MotY has been going on for close to a month now, and only 7 days and a few hours remain of the countdown! Help us get to the Top 100, and from there - maybe even reach the title of Here's a short recap of our past MotY success: In 2009, Twisted Insurrection was nominated in the Top 100 Upcoming Mods. In 2010, we released Public Beta 1, and Twisted Insurrection reached the Top 100 Released Mod Nominees. In 2011, Twisted Insurrection was voted to the Top 100 Released Mods. This year, we have released the long-awaited Public Beta 4, and while activity may seem to have slowed down since, we assure you that Twisted Insurrection has gone nowhere but forward! In addition, if you are a good boy/girl and help us reach the Top once more, expect a very merry Christmas present from us (as has been a tradition)! Without further a-do, hurry up and go to this link, scroll down and vote! Remember that you can vote for more than one Mod for Mod of the Year, released or not, so be sure to check out our affiliate pages as well! Mental Omega, Project Phantom, Robot Storm, Dawn of the Tiberium Age and D-Day.
  7. We, the Twisted Insurrection team are very pleased to announce that our latest version, Public Beta 4 has been released! Since the Re-Issue of Public Beta 3, we have been working hard to get more of the essentials out of the way. The changelog is also very large and impressive due-to the short amount of time (In my opinion, at least) since the last release, you can view the changelog here! Public Beta 4 includes several new campaign missions (A total of 8 GDI Missions and 13 Nod missions (8 and 9 are palceholder maps) so far), several new units and unit images, new additions to our unique soundtrack, new voices, options, several new and improved maps, coding and balance changes, gameplay improvements, tons of lag reduction, the implementation of Naval units (still in heavily testing phases at the moment) and much more! Public Beta 4 is our most stable version to date as we have eradicated the source of the most common internal errors and hopefully we wont be seeing any more again (or for a long time at best). Online play is now much simpler to commence now too thanks to the new Twisted Insurrection launcher feature similar to the one used by one of our affiliate projects, The Dawn of the Tiberium Age (which we also reccomend you check out if you loved classic Tiberian Dawn!). Sadly as it is still beta, there are still several placeholder images being used, but this will not effect the game-play at all! Pretty soon we hope to get everything finished and finally come out of beta. One of our new staff members, Henskelion, is working on CGI & FMV's for future Twisted Insurrection releases which will be available as soon as posisble. If you are new to Twisted Insurrection, check out our website for more information! Download Twisted Insurrection Public Beta 4 Here! Note: There will be no Public Beta 5, only patches up to this point thanks to the Launcher feature making this easier. The next release will be Twisted Insurrection 1.0. There will be a big patch update based on Public Feedback around Xmas time, as is our tradition. Enjoy, ladies and gentlemen. We'll be looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
  8. Due-to the extraordinary progression on the staff patches and builds of Twisted Insurrection, there has been over 190 changes and additions to Twisted Insurrection: Public Beta 3 which featured 239 Changes and additions since Public Beta 2. With this in mind, we are more than pleased to announce Twisted Insurrection: Public Beta 3 Re-Issue! The Public Beta 3 Re-Issue features major game-play and balance changes along with fixing several bugs in the original Public Beta 3 release (including a fix for the Final TI Map Editor), there are also new multiplayer maps, campaign/challenge missions, several updates and changes to the campaign as a whole, revamped AI, units available and several performance enhancers to specific maps and the mod in general which results in less lag!

Whilst I am making an announcement post, it's an ideal time for me to share with you what has been going on behind the scenes as It has been quiet around here for a while: - My Co-Leader, Lin Kuei Ominae had been working on some many eye-candy tests a while ago in order to improve upon some of our older tests. Some of these tests (which have turned out very successful) will be implemented into the next build for you to enjoy during the next release, which might even be an Xmas present from me to you this year. (Click on the image to view it in actual size) - As some of you may already be aware, I have posted previews of the new Trees that Mig Eater and I have been working on in the Terrain Forum, the Tiberium Flora is soon to be replaced by Droke and Myself too. If you haven't seen the tree already, here are some previews for you of the different kind of tree sets: (Click on the image to view it in actual size) Obviously, the above Image is just to show you what each tree-type is like, here is a preview of them on some of our current maps: (Click on these images to view them in actual size) - Some work from the Mapping side of the Twisted Insurrection fence, which again some of you may also be aware of. Dudeinabox and I have both made a new map each which adds to our huge Map selection variety, hopefully we will reach over 100 Maps (that's one of our main goals) before the Final Release occurs, check out these new maps in actual size by clicking on the Mini-Map previews below: - I have gotten a lot more work done on the Interior Theater, which adds a new Laboratory set and a lot more additional Eye-candy. The Interior Theater is complete as it has all it's necessary components for map-making and reasonable eye-candy, but I'll still be making more bits and pieces for it, just because I can. (Click on the image to view it in actual size) On one final note, the Twisted Insurrection Website is back up and running: Be sure to check it out! And that is all I can show for now. Be sure to keep your eyes open for many more previews to come, I promise you, there is a lot more on it's way. Vote Twisted Insurrection for Mod of the Year 2010! Twisted Insurrection will never die!
