  1. Motorsports, particularly car racing games for when you're driving in stick shift mode. But obviously not a cheat in this genre because it's part of the game .
  2. Unless you don't have any arms, I can't see the point of using pedals for rts games; no advantage whatsoever, and therefore not cheating.
  3. I spoke to the insurance assessor earlier today and it looks like all our stolen items will either be replaced with brand new ones or the newer version if they're unable to find an identical one! Thank you burglar(s), thank you for my new stuff and new car, MERRY XMAS!
  4. One of the scariest times in my life... A few days ago (Friday, morning to be exact), my house was broken into and robbed. Here's the super scary part: what they took was RIGHT NEXT TO MY WIFE AND ME WHILE WE WERE SLEEPING!!! FFFFUUUUAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!! My wife and I are both fine, thank god/allah/budah, but all sorts of scenarios are still playing out in my head (even as I type this) of what could have happened had I been awake and tried to defend ourselves. He/they (I don't know how many) took our wallets, phones (iphone 7+, iphoneX and Samsung S8), sets of keys to entire house and two cars (stole one of them... my fucking Holden Commodore SS VE V8... AAAAARRRRGGGGHHH!!!), then made several hundreds of dollars worth of purchases. All that was done in the morning between the hours of 6:30 am and 10am! The burglar(s) managed to quietly break into 3 locked doors, including our bedroom (again with my wife and I sleeping in it, and tv was turned on quite loud, as usual, which is probably why we never heard anything). I've never once been robbed in my life, and the first time happens like this... jeeezus. The police found my car yesterday, but as expected, with several damages. Why couldn't they just take it for a joy ride but leave it intact so that they can steal it again at a later date... stupid asshole(s)). Forensics found no fingerprints though . We've reset all our bank cards and the bank said that all our stolen funds will all be reimbursed, we've disabled the IMEI numbers on the stolen phones, and all the stuff that was taken from inside the house will also be replaced by insurance and I've purchased a new vehicle. So we're slowly recovering, both the stolen goods and emotionally. It's all partly my fault as I live in a fairly wealthy area where most houses are double-storey, including mine, and have a fairly large block of land with a swimming pool (those thieving pricks probably went for a dip first before taking off with my car ) which should have been a good indication for me to upgrade the security (which was practically none). We've lived in this house for over 6 years now with no problems. I guess we've just been lucky. In conclusion, Christmas is coming and burglars want free presents and free money to go and buy presents, so make sure to stay safe and alert guys... RED ALERT! We're now going to go into maximum security : double locks, alarm, cameras (connected to our phones) and roller door shutters on all windows. I'm also thinking of getting a dog again, but I never really wanted to after my last one passed away. Or I could move back to America where guns are a lot easier to get, then I can just shoot them (oh wait, my green card is expired ). But what if they shoot us first.... :o Nah, I think I'll stay in Australia and just go into hyper defensive mode like some C&C players like to do .
  5. First of all, thanks again for another big update with all the new missions, units and fixes; my weekend is all set . But just a couple of things... Weird 'Restart' button error and bug: 1.Main Menu -> Load Game -> (choose saved game) -> Abort Mission -> Restart -> internal error. BUT Main Menu -> New Mission -> (choose mission) -> Load Game (of same mission) -> Abort Mission -> Restart -> no problem. 2. Main Menu -> New Mission -> (choose mission) -> (load a DIFFERENT mission) -> Abort Mission -> Restart -> loads up the PREVIOUS mission . Could 2 be related to 1 perhaps? I'm not sure if the previous versions had this problem. Requests: I know that I probably should have asked for this before the release of the latest update, but I only remembered now : Any chance you guys can make the 'invisible', for a lack of a better term, waypoints (currently defaulted to Q) changeable? I'd like to be able to change it to Z, like in RA2/YR, or SHIFT like in Starcraft 2. I don't really use the 'fixed' waypoints (currently defaulted to Z) except in Tiberian Sun when making flying units patrol areas. Also, same with the attack-move hotkey (currently defaulted to Ctrl + Alt), can we have this changeable as well please in the next update if possible? I'd like to be able to change this to just ONE key instead of two, like A or something.
  6. You can release the latest version now because it's December 1st somewhere in the world right now
  7. Is it any of these maps: http://mapdb.cncnet.org/search.php?game=yr&age=0&search=hammer
  8. I'd prefer Dune 2 - The Building of a Dynasty to be made into a fps, only because it's the original. But Dune 2000 would be cool too. Although, I would rather see BFD:WOA completed first because of all the work that has already been put into it, and also the fps version of RA2, which is looking pretty damn awesome so far.
  9. I've just tried both donate buttons again (here and main page) using Google Chrome and Internet Explorer; they both worked (I didn't actually donate this time, but it went into the payment page just fine). Only Firefox doesn't seem to work for me and keeps giving me the error message: "Sorry - your last action could not be completed". I've already cleared my cache and cookies, restarted the browser, googled a little for a solution, but unsuccessful. No big deal though, I'll just use the main page next time.
  10. The 'Donate' button at the bottom of the forums don't work for me, and probably others too. I was able to donate via the main page a couple of weeks ago though, but I doubt that everybody knows about that or would bother looking for another donate button. Some people have probably clicked on this one down below and thought "Hmm... doesn't work. Oh well, more money for smokes and beers ".
  11. No offense to MustacheX who looks like a good player, but Marko (if that was really him) was just messing with him, probably just killing some time while his Heroes of the Storm game was updating , I mean, he was using IC'd tanks to scout ffs! Not to mention not expanding his base, among other things. Btw, Yuri moving down to mid on Heck early in the game is like taking a Nuke to a fist fight . I was waiting for the brute dollars to start pumping out right after mid gems were gone because apparently they weren't enough . Still a fun watch though, thanx for the upload.
  12. Shouldn't tesla troopers be immune to tesla coils, lightning storms and other tesla troopers? If anything, these things should make them even stronger.
  13. You don't really need a radar screen in RA2/YR (not even a small one) because you can scroll around the map so fast. But if you really want a larger one, you can do something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wu0SspVsAJk I used a tool called Real Time Zoom but I'm sure there are others out there. Windows 7's Magnifier doesn't seem to work for some reason; it doesn't refresh while you're playing.
  14. I can do it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eV-PZVzN6do
  15. Bug: The ejection-seat mechanisms on the jets don't work. You can even hear the pilots trying to eject when going down; "EJECT, EJECT!", "BAIL OUT!". Probably the same people that made the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 made these eject mechanisms.
  16. The 'Donate' button works on the main page but not here on the forums.
  17. If two yuri clones mind-control the same person at the exact same time, will that person have a split personality?
  18. Ah yes, yes, of course, just like in Stephen King's Langoliers! I like this explanation.
  19. I like using allies, not because I'm good or I suck with them, but because they have more fun toys to play with. (I haven't voted yet because this option wasn't available)
  20. 1. But energy can't be created nor destroyed, so the victims of the chrono legionnaires must have gone somewhere. 2. How come siege choppers are affected, and GIs too when deployed? 3. Oh ok. Well it is called 'RED Alert 2' after all and the old communist Russia loved red and saw it as a color of beauty. 4. Ah yes, true. The allied campaign ending was the canon ending. So yes. 5. Really? I knew it! Just like the supposed spherical shaped earth. #partiallysolved
  21. Who's this guy buying everything? You just click the '$' button on your building and he instantly buys it. He's even involved in human-trafficking and buys people (inside an ifv on an allied service depot - only doable in RA2, not RA2-mode).
  22. I know right? These bizarre things keep me awake at night... smh.
