All the units that have been zapped by chrono legionnaires... where do they go? How come an MCV is affected by a desolator's toxic waste, but not when it's deployed? Glitch: No matter which color I pick, my sentry gun and tesla coil on my side bar are always red, as well as other soviet structures like my warfactory, barracks, reactor, depot and naval yard. Glitch: No matter which country I choose, when I hover my mouse over the units/structures on the side bar, the currency is always in dollars. Why doesn't it change to euro, won or dinar when I'm using Germany, Korea or Libya? Shadows of buildings point north-east, suggesting that the sun is at the opposite; south-west. But shadows of vehicles and infantry are directly below, which suggests that there is another sun directly above. What planet is this??? And V3 rockets don't cast shadows at all.

You can win lots of games without desolators, but you can win even more with them . The weaker countries don't need those^ specific weapons, their special units just need an upgrade. Whether it be an increase in speed, armor, fire-power, cheaper cost... etc., or a mixture of several upgrades to make them worth building/training. Tesla tanks make great anti-infantry/light armor, so will the demo trucks and terrorists if their values are tweaked. Why don't you tell us so that we can see more of them on the battle field, or maybe a more effective way to use them.

Like Palacio (Mikoz) this month on xwis for example (a really good player, despite people complaining about him having more dogs than tanks, but that's another story). If you scroll down the list of matches and click on a game number on the left (for those who don't know) you can see some screenshots of each match. I'm having trouble finding any of those four units^ in any of the screenshots where he 'uses' Libya, Germany....

Yeah yeah quit showing off . Did you use those four^ units I mentioned above though?

A lot of top ten players did use random factions, but did they actually use those four units (tank destroyer, terrorist,demo truck, tesla tank) much?

I wasn't actually suggesting for the staff to include that specific mod in the YR client, I only mentioned it because that was the mod that Iran suggested a while back when the YR Client was still in beta stages. All I personally want is for the four units that I mentioned above to be buffed, if ever a "Balance Mode" (or whatever it may be called) was to be available one day, alongside RA2 Mode.

Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un will become best friends before this topic is ever resolved . But one thing that I think everyone will agree on is the fact that nobody has ever dominated the xwis ladder month after month, or any organised tournaments using the following units: Tank Destroyers Demolition Truck Terrorists Tesla Tanks People do use Germany, Libya, Cuba and Russia, but I don't think they actually use those mentioned units much, if at all. So if the CnCNet staff ever decide to add the option to play using a balance mode, which was suggested years ago by Iran if I'm not mistaken (the unofficial version 1.007), I don't think anyone will mind if those units get buffed up.

Ah ok.

Yeah I forgot about your previous post : What's the other rulesmd.ini (inside ra2md.mix) used for?

Oh wow, there are differences. Like for the Rhino Heavy Tank for example: rulesmd.ini from expandmd01.mix says: BuildTimeMultiplier=1.3 rulesmd.ini from ra2md.mix says: BuildTimeMultiplier=1.5 Which rulesmd.ini does the game use?

Are you making maps or just drawing? There's a program called Paint you know.

It's weird that different anti-virus programs give different results. It's like a doctor telling you that "You have cancer!", but another doctor saying "You're perfectly healthy!"

That video has been deleted, I think because he has already split the large stream up into each of the separate matches. It's all still on KinKys3x's YouTube channel. Everything is there except for the pre-match streaming where they talked about swapping pics of their girlfriends, choosing servers, doing a test match, talking about how the Greek PM and Trump are gonna get together and tag-team Kim Jong Un, greek style (I'm paraphrasing). Stuff like that. I think Marko and Buffalo should do another one to give Marko a chance for revenge, and then maybe a rubber match/session if Marko wins the second set of matches.

Solid argument here. Well I guess that settles this debate. I never looked at it that way, it's all clear to me now.

I've rarely ever used the sides of the screen to scroll around, so correct me if I'm wrong (anybody), but I think this is normal. The sides of the screen and arrow keys are only used for slower and more precise scrolling, which would have been perfect back in the day when people were still using 640x480 screen resolutions. But once you get used to right-click scrolling, it will be just as accurate. But again, I could be wrong, although my game is exactly the same as you describe above.

I had a look there (as well as several other book sites) earlier today for an ebook version, but sadly there was none available. I don't think they'd care about a book that hardly anyone buys, which is why they didn't bother converting/scanning this one like they've done with their more popular books. Which sux because now I have to do it . But like I mentioned in my first post; if any of the copyright holders do get pissed (which I highhhhly doubt), I'll remove it immediately, that is if I even get around to scanning it!

Found it!!! -+ Official Guide to Command & Conquer +- (my desk needs a bit of a clean)... I was thinking of scanning the entire book myself, but I think 450 pages (including front and back covers) is a bit much, so I decided to search for a digital version of it online... but with no luck . I'll keep searching, but it's not looking good. I'll probably get it professionally scanned one day so that my digital collections are complete.

Can anyone recommend a good antivirus?

This is the first time I've seen someone complain about the server being too fast

@Barrowwind Hi, welcome . Yeah your first couple of posts (I'm not sure exactly how many) need to be reviewed first, which is standard in a lot of forum's out there.

I have/had one a long time ago but I can't find it .

This line seems to contradict itself. If the game is running at 900 frames per minute, wouldn't that be equivalent to 15 fps, not 50-55? (900 frames / 60 seconds = 15fps) - which is really slow and almost unplayable.
