KKnD2: How Many versions Exist? what are the Differences?
MapDesigner replied to MapDesigner's topic in General Discussion
Well i want to get the game so i want to know whoz better. Also, Is it just 2 games or there are more versions? -
I think yes. you have to download CNCnet client. not sure what it exactly does. its either server you connect to or it tricks your PC to think other are connected to your lan. I forgot whre I got it from though lol. but when you download him, he will ask you where is your red alert 2 directory, just tell him where your game is and you are good to go. Edit: FOUND IT https://cncnet.org/red-alert-2 its at the top of this page (downloads up there) Edit: do you want to play with me?

Hello, 5.) I think they should be 3 teams better than 2. each team is 2 kirovs and total attack force is 6 kirovs. why not? I think 6.) should be changed: kirov should attack base from 3 sides (2,2,2) while at the same time he attack with tanks. the tanks will force the flaks to be microed. ummmmm, still if the player is good he can protect flaks with some rinos, so maybe im wrong. but I think you should re-consider this bit anyway. maybe you can also split the attack force, one on the MCV, one on the factory, and one on the base defenses (towers etc or power) NO I will have to ban libya then I plan so surprise your AI with kirov attack from the ocean. I think you should make your AI send his scorpions to hunt my kirovs. WAIT! I have typhone attack subs. but you still can make scorpion/patriot boats guard the shore Edit: should I replay the campaign now? does it work there?

I suggest you do some changelog and hide it in the OP. its for you before anyone else. I personal enjoy scrolling through my changelogs time and time again x) anyway, I came here to tell somethings about AI that should be edited, but i can see from the OP that you did exactly what I was thinking of asking LOL (that V3 launcher shouldnt stay in middle of my base)

I have 2 version of RA2 the original version and a version with your AI

How to make RA2 & YR maps - Final Alert 2 Tutorial
MapDesigner replied to [CC] RaVaGe's topic in RA2/YR Maps
why does final alert tell me that I should make my map as big? (im making map with 200 hight 200 width) he says it may cause problems. I tried it in game and it works with no problems at all. also side question (not sure if this second question must be asked here): how do I open campaign maps? -
hello, I think most people have version 1.06 for ra2, and version 1,01 for yuri

Hello, I cant find the map file (but I can still find it in game). why is it not in my map list? or maybe it has wierd file name different from the name in the game? im I want to edit the map ?

KKnD2: How Many versions Exist? what are the Differences?
MapDesigner replied to MapDesigner's topic in General Discussion
hmmmm I think that too sometimes it seems to me that PS version is better and simpler in some aspects. For e.g. upgrading power plant gives 50 more RU in PS1 as far as I recall, but in PC version, it gives 20 more RU only (so 1 upgrade in PS1 give 450 in PC gives 420 RU per load). it seems the PS1 version is better thought in this case. -

infantry units are too underpowered compared to tanks!
MapDesigner replied to MapDesigner's topic in Red Alert 2
That will be unfair for the AI xD I think I will just install a mouse clicker before next game LOL -

MapDesigner replied to MapDesigner's topic in Red Alert 2
becuz only 30 tesla trooper isnt enough for anything. same with conscript. if he was meant to be massed then we need 1 click gives 10 conscripts or something. -
COOL

MapDesigner replied to MapDesigner's topic in Red Alert 2
yes that may well be but I can only maximum click 30 units queued for training maybe thats enough for tanks but surely not for infantry -
KKnD2: How Many versions Exist? what are the Differences?
MapDesigner replied to MapDesigner's topic in General Discussion
well then, for you and the other lazy guys who wont bother to check (I will also add this to the OP) Here is a video on how the campaign map looks like in PS1 version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7mDhdacqhw&t=20s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2px9UhRN9nY&t=14s while the PC version campaign mission selection on the other hand looks like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgkUbSP2L7w&t=0s Here is you can see that max 4 upgrades are available always https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7mDhdacqhw&t=5m26s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJXTK1J55d0&list=PLR09fnk-GyfAadkyI4aN0z8dfup4qRRRE&t=11m5s while the PC version, you can see the max is 5: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDHw_HFPH-w&t=15m52s So, to summerise the differences I am aware of so far, Campaign selection menu looks different in PC and PS1 version Campaign missions are not in the same order in both version; for instance, the PS1 evolved mission 5 is actually mission 1 in the PC version. Also, in the PS1 it has max 2 upgrades while while the PC version it has only 1 max upgrade PC has 5 upgrades while PS1 has only 4 upgrades in the PS1 version, only 2 buildings of the same type are allowed. a player cannot build more than 2 power stations, 2 machine shops, or solar collectors. same applies to all other buildings. some buildings do not exist in PS1 version including: Armoury, Repair bay thermal exchanger,, lazer destroyer tower, force wall, Barricade and all their equivalents. only the PC version has them In PS1 version, tower are available when the outpost in upgraded. in the PC version, the armoury has that function. both versions have number of towers limited to 4. There may well be more differences. -

MapDesigner replied to MapDesigner's topic in Red Alert 2
I just want them to be more useful ? they just seem most useless and everyone can win withough building a single one. it feels like engineers are the only useful and the super guys (tania boris yoris seals and crono man) -
infantry units are too underpowered compared to tanks!
MapDesigner replied to MapDesigner's topic in Red Alert 2
but I usually only see ppl build tanks instead of the soviet infantry. maybe they need to walk faster or maybe they just need to be massed more easily with clicks. but I dont think that, I can easily raze a full base with 30-ish tanks, but with infantry even 100+ and they still die. hmmmm, maybe its the weakness against walls ? -
Hello, it feels like 30 units max build queue is way too little. maybe there is a way to queue infinite units in the build queue? I had this idea while I was buildng 30 infantry units and found them to be too little. infantry units has to be much more massive to be effective. I also think there should be a key to build a chunk at once (e.g. 1 click is 1 unit, but ctrl+click queues 10 units at once) so, is there a way to edit the INI files or something to make it better?
-
Hello guys, so I just played vs 3 brutal AI. I challenged myself to only build soviet infantry units. it seems like tesla troopers and conscript as well as all infatry in general are too underpowered. I think they need some sort of buffs. maybe they should be cheaper or something, dont you agree?

if your still in doubt, watch these 2 vids and you see how the map looks a lot different, but the game is still the same. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7mDhdacqhw&t=5s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2px9UhRN9nY&t=16s @FReQuEnZy -
