AchromicWhite Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 2 Things: 1. I'm looking at this nice little "small infantry patch" 'hires1.mix', made by Nyer, if I'm not mistaken. It mostly works, but even though the mechanic and shok troop are in the file, the game does NOT replace the graphics. Obviously these are the 2 from Aftermath, something about where the game chooses to gather the graphics from... 2. If I add more units to this file, will the game just override those shp files also? Like, if I make a replacement medium tank (2tnk), and just add it to this file (hires1.shp), will the game just read the new file instead of the regular 2tnk.shp? -Liam
Nyerguds Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 I think that stuff in there working or not working is more related to what they changed in the mix reading in the exe, tbh...
AchromicWhite Posted September 2, 2014 Author Posted September 2, 2014 OK, well to answer my own question, yes more stuff added seems to replace anything in the main.mix -> conquer.mix But I assume not anything in expand2.mix -Liam
FunkyFr3sh Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 i have moved these files to expand10.mix some time ago
AchromicWhite Posted September 3, 2014 Author Posted September 3, 2014 Moved what files? I'm just adding stuff to hires1.mix which is just strait in the directory.
AchromicWhite Posted September 3, 2014 Author Posted September 3, 2014 They're automatically in the game now? It wasn't sml Inf when I downloaded it... I had to get the patch -Liam
Nyerguds Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 I believe they made it a configuration option or something.
AchromicWhite Posted September 3, 2014 Author Posted September 3, 2014 Lol, I love how this information seems to be shared pretty much no where... this is like the time I tried to find the RA music... In fact, I still haven't found it. -Liam
Nyerguds Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Hey, I made a full readme, a music pack and a custom config tool when I released the C&C95 patch. RA95's maintenance isn't my project -_-
FunkyFr3sh Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 it is included in the RedAlertConfig as resource white is just using old crap (he even uses the 100year old outdated arda) go to www.cncnet.org, download the game and you have it fully working
AchromicWhite Posted September 3, 2014 Author Posted September 3, 2014 Not sure how old the version is I'm using. It's not the same one I use for CR though. -Liam
Kilkakon Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Hey, I made a full readme, a music pack and a custom config tool when I released the C&C95 patch. RA95's maintenance isn't my project -_- And this is why we love you haha Your documentation in general is amazing. For every question I ask you on here there's 100 you've answered in your docs for me.
AchromicWhite Posted September 5, 2014 Author Posted September 5, 2014 Where CAN I get the RA1 music, BTW? -Liam
Kilkakon Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 Err the original discs? I suppose there'd be a download somewhere though as it's freeware...
AchromicWhite Posted September 6, 2014 Author Posted September 6, 2014 That sounds really annoying to extract, lol. I'm sure I have full RA1 somewhere, it's just outdated. Do you know where in the files it's kept, what mix? -Liam Edit: Found it, got scores.mix, injected it into main.mix I think this is a bit complex for anyone just wanting to have music while they play RA1 online... you might want to make a patch for that, funky.
Nyerguds Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 My main.mix patch for TFD/TUC includes them... but since it's an actual binary patch based on file differences, you need the TFD/TUC main.mix to actually get them that way
AchromicWhite Posted September 7, 2014 Author Posted September 7, 2014 Yeah, that's right, it's packed away in a larger mix file. But there should definitely still be a download for people who want to play WITH the music. Seems crazy to cut the game down and then not give out replacements for those that want to play with the full game -Liam
Tore Posted September 7, 2014 Posted September 7, 2014 You can download the music from the CnCNet client click on settings then click on the game settings tab. Or if you want the full game there's always: http://funkyfr3sh.cncnet.org/
AchromicWhite Posted September 7, 2014 Author Posted September 7, 2014 Oh cool, that helps Well, I already edited the music back in hehe, but that's just me. Heck, I have custom graphics also xD -Liam
