AchromicWhite Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 So I hear FunkyFr3sh has been patching the game up a bit... can we have it on CnCnet now? Seriously, is there a reason. Seems like a perfect place for it to exist. Is it just time and effort? -Liam
Plokite_Wolf Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I just checked the Dune 2000 Online site and it appears to be shut down Nobody used it anyway, too bad.
FunkyFr3sh Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I just checked the Dune 2000 Online site and it appears to be shut down Nobody used it anyway, too bad. yea, the guy who was running didnt had backups of the files and the server provider went down .. thats when the problems started and server is now gone for good i heard not sure when dune 2000 goes cncnet, i got skirmish games working already but i have yet to look up the multiplayer stuff it is on my to-do list and might be finished during the next 10years
AchromicWhite Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 Sweet... just 9 years and 364 days to go! Seriously, I hope it's done well before that time, haha It had a LAN mode built in, didn't it? Would it be maybe easier to just have it hook up through that, much like Hamachi/CnCnet4 I guess it's all a lot of work in any way. Good luck! -Liam
FunkyFr3sh Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 people are playing on hamachi right now, but the built in lan is not that nice i already made a couple of patches for the game http://funkyfr3sh.cncnet.org/files/d2k/Features.txt
AchromicWhite Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 Looking pretty good Funky -Liam
r34ch Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 That's awesome. I saw the high res patch at dune2k.com a while ago, now browsing the forums I see FunkyFr3sh is all over it. Glad to see all the games based on the engine getting so much love so many years on and more importantly, that members of the community seem so eager to band together to get things working. Brings a tear to my eye
BikerScout Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 I love this game but no1 is playing it! EBFD might be more popular since it has more units.. hope you guys add it.
FunkyFr3sh Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 We just added support for dune2000, it will take some time to build up a playerbase just stick around, wait some minutes in the lobby and you will for sure get a game going!
Ferret Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 Doesn't work well with Windows 8.1, but it's possible to play.
AchromicWhite Posted September 26, 2014 Author Posted September 26, 2014 On another note. Holy crap it's Ferret xD -Liam
FunkyFr3sh Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 Doesn't work well with Windows 8.1, but it's possible to play. yea i knew about the win8 problems, should be fixed now turn off all compat modes and try without them
Ferret Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 On another note. Holy crap it's Ferret xD -Liam I've been around.
Nyerguds Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 I've been around. Under about two dozen names
FunkyFr3sh Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 Good news. What about language packs? that is in my to do list, will probably read the language settiong from dune2000.ini and rename the text.uib (string table) to text-rus.uib etc
Nyerguds Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Are D2k languages really just the strings and sounds? Or are there actual graphics changes needed too? I'd imagine the font could be a problem...
FunkyFr3sh Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 strings, graphics and the russian one comes with a special font yes
