  1. They all used to be under one roof (BlueHell Productions) until some internet drama unfolded and a few of the developers split and started W3DHub.

     

    They are both communities with the same aims really, make C&C games into First Person Shooters.

     

    So far the games are distributed as follows:

     

    W3D Hub -

     

    Command And Conquer - Tiberian Sun Reborn (This is a full Tiberian Sun conversion to first person perspective)

    Command And Conquer - Tiberium (This is a full CNC 1 conversion to first person perspective. It's main aim is to capture the feel of CNC 1 that renegade did so poorly at) - Still in development

    Command And Conquer - Apocalypse Rising  (Full RA2 conversion to First person perspective) - Still in development.

    There is also a Dune conversion called Battle For Dune that is still under development

     

    BlueHell Productions

     

    Command And Conquer - A Path Beyond (Full RA1 conversion to first person perspective, been around for a while now)

     

  2. Hello Guys,

     

    I'm at work so can't confirm this but did i see a checkbox for "Beta Ladder test" when i was playing the other night? Not sure if i dreamed it.

     

    Is this something we can view at this stage or is it just for the devs testing purposes?

     

     

  3. Hey Funky,

     

    I'm going to caveat this post by saying, I am not a cheater and i think it truly takes away from the game experience but coming from someone who has been programming for years, It wouldn't take much to figure out a way round it. Did you also do this for RA1?

     

    I'm assuming that as you're not offering it up as a download, you'll just be offering a patch? Is that correct?

  4. Hello people. I'm an xwis player. Someone mentioned on our forums about cncnet having ra2 soon, aswell. What is the player base expected to be? You guys have a ladder for clan matches/tourny etc?

     

    In the mean time, why aren't you guys on xwis? it's the original ra2 server, has anti cheating and like 40-50 new maps. Never understood why there are so many servers instead of all being on 1 =P guess it's cuz xwis costs money?

     

     

    EDIT: Ummm, also, can we do something about my status being a minigunner....? Someone plz change it to Supreme Ruler. Thx

     

    We aim for an easy setup here, just download and play. Port forwarding is not required on CnCNet, no one will be locked out. All cheats have been fixed too (there is no need for auto ss). I doubt it is about the money, most people just don't know how to open ports, they expect it to work out of the box, while others use 3g/4g or any kind of shared internet where it is not possible to open ports at all

     

    Yes i use 3G and i cant forward ports so the tunneling server is a godsend. "Cheats are fixed"

     

    Really?  :laugh:

  5. Yeah... so for some reason the cncnet launcher is causing my pc to keep shutting off.

     

    my pc used to do it every now and again anyway but it seems to be happening very regularly when i run CnCNet launcher... it's just happened 5 times while i was trying to get a game going and now i give up 8-)

     

    I'm not blaming the launcher as it's probably more of an issue with my pc.. it just seems to happen when im just about to start a game. It VERY rarely happens when the launcher is not active.

  6. More like equivalent to "There is already a setting in OpenTTD and someone made a NewGRF so you don't need that workaround." but okay. I got it a long time ago. There is also a challenge to work with the limitations of the classics that adds to the appeal.

     

    The best solution may be to just recommend each others projects. I added links to the cncnet.org community at https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/wiki/FAQ#this-is-not-true-to-the-original about a year ago and also advertised it on our social media pages.

     

    I am really sick of this hostility. The recent incident with Graion Dilach on www.moddb.com/games/openra who crossed a line with his personal attacks and wishing us failure, is making me angry and sad. He seems to be agitated by your aggressive and almost religious hate speech against our hobby project.

     

    See, this is the problem, you think OpenRA is to RA what OpenTTD is to TTD and behave as such, but it isn't. OpenTTD reverse engineered the TTD binary and created a compilable version that pretty much matched the original and only then did they start to build upon it with mostly optional changes. It can to my knowledge still use the original data files as they are, any new formats are optional. If you had reverse engineered the original binaries and then built upon them I'm sure many of the qualms people are saying they have would not be an issue. As I've tried to explain, personally I have no problems with your project, I'm not hostile to it, I just think it is misrepresenting itself as a recreation when its really an imitation that uses the original GFX to make it seem more familiar than it really is.

     

    Also, I think you are being disingenuous suggesting this is some kind of "religious crusade" based purely on some kind of ideology like you are the victims of persecution for your strange minority beliefs. The people I see being most against the way you PORTRAY openra (and not against its existence) are the ones most versed with how the original games are actually programmed and who do have some inkling of what it would take to reverse engineer them to create something that could truly be called a recreation and the fact that isn't what the open RA team actually did. It doesn't help when your website suggests that the originals have been "improved" by "more modern RTS features" either.

     

     

    Blade what's the difference between imitation and re creation? You lot are seriously the most pedantic bunch I've ever seen.

  7. does anyone have problems with them getting all confused? Like when a refinery is busy they'll go miles away to another refinery, then the miner at that refinery gets confused and goes across the map to the other refinery, just slowing down your economy?

     

    I seem to get this a lot and it's doing my head in!

  8. Dude the people complaining about how you're "representing" your mod are nothing but keyboard warriors. Anyone with a spec of technical know know how or programming knowledge, would be holding their glasses up to you because you've achieved something awesome. The people who just complain that it's not like the original and that you're "calling it the wrong thing" are really sad people... If they don't like it, don't play it.

     

    I can see it from your perspective, you've created OpenRA, it's been your passion and yes you've deviated from the original, but who cares? I just don't get why people get their underwear in such a twist over the fact you're calling it a re-creation? If anything you've created an RTS engine from scratch, without back engineering any of the original binaries... IMO that's more impressive that just building on the old engine... So many sad fanboys, who just don't understand what goes into creating an RTS from scratch.

  9. LOL i didnt even think anyone would build the fake ones so i put it down to HAX...

     

    so my streak of terrible allies has reached its peak...

     

    he also had a pond outside his base (literally the size of a pond) and he built a naval yard and gunboats  XD

     

  10. So i just had a game and as usual i get the n00b as an ally. The guy moves his MCV right up to my spot, unpacks it, then out of nowhere he unpacks like 3 more... Literally 3 construction yards right next to each other.

     

    It was a normal aftermath map, no mods just standard... Could he have got three in crates maybe??

     

    He got killed not long after and just basically sucked the rest of the game so i'm pretty sure he wasn't hacking...

     

    I tried to get a screenshot but when i pasted it into paint it was all bleh.

     

    Anyone ever seen this?

  11. 1. Most of the games i join are mod maps with unlimited money and symmetrical map layouts. I'm just not interested in a fight of basewalking... it's basically about how fast you can click rather than actual strategy.

     

    2. every game is */8 why does everyone want laggy games with 8 people? 98% of the time they lag and there is no breathing room... far too cramped.

     

    3. I don't get too many people joining my 2v2 games.

     

    I mean, i can understand playing the odd mod map and having a laugh with unlimited money but every single game seems to be one of these maps... why are they so popular? Not really moaning just thought it'd be interesting to hear your thoughts on this.

  12. I simply do not, understand what it is you are going on about... I simply posted a link, to a video, which is surely irrelevant to anything about the previous post... I mean, it must be as irrelevant as the saddest song ever, a song which is composed for the violin, by a violinist. I am banned, how could I, a white male, possibly harass you? And how are these threats, which are so obviously filled with spite, going unnoticed by the administrators? So all hell breaks loose when you see the word "NIGGER", but for some reason, me being called childish, hateful and then being threatened to be  "further embarrassed"  is somehow acceptable? I mean, here I stand, literally threatened, being coerced into whatever fascist ideals you have, and here I stand, slandered... as you throw threats of public humiliation, and other forms of verbal abuse, and I can't even say, a humble word, which for almost fifty years has lost all direct meaning, and has lost any immediate significance. And then you offer me to join your teamspeak... Because it's the nice thing to do... And I won't lie, it's very kind, indeed sir. But you missed something... What if I don't want to be nice? What if I really, don't care at all about you? What if all I want to do, is my own thing, which is to be free to as I please? Who are you to tell me, what I can and can't do, to "guide" me into your greatness. Your holier-then-thou attitude, I have to say is looser talk. It's disgusting. Oh don't worry, I will thank anyone I please, but it'll be done on my own initiative, why? Because it's my God given right.

     

    SO you preach it, you show the awful, racist, who'se boss... You show us, how much better you are then me... Because where I stand, I stand by all previous remarks, comments, and any other previously iterated statements, including any and all verbal connotations, which might or could be taken as a racist remark. There comes a time, when someone must stand up to his bully... And yes, that's exactly what you are. A weak minded, self centered, oedipal complex lingering, titty sucker bully.

     

     

    LMFAO... fucking brilliant. Actually laughed out loud.

  13. Why do i find this kid so amusing? I died laughing reading all his shit above. Im not laughing at his black hatred, but his responses about why he did it are something else.  I think hes infected with the sickness ...

     

    In complete agreement, i'm in hysterics. I am mixed race to a certain degree so never condone racism but he had me in stitches..one of the funniest trolls i've ever seen
