Just looking at an older build:
The radar should look like that, but with the same style as the current one. (If that makes any sense :huh
Slightly transparent green/red background, but solid opaque outline. Deffo looks better with the pics of the weapons. Just size them down to the current size!

Dude I agree with your post 100% !
If you look at this: http://www.renegade-x.com/Forums/index.php...post&id=390
I prefer the structures to be on the side and the money etc where it is now.
I think one should reduce the transparency slightly like you pointed out on the radar, but it should be almost translucent when it comes to the health.
Also, I was thinking for the weapons, we use little images of them instead of outlines. That way you can see it clearly no matter what map you're playing on. -

:lol:
As weird as this sounds, some people who play games actually cannot see very well. They see most things but not everything.
The HUD atm is alright I think. I do like the yellow for GDI and the red one for Nod. I prefered the older health bars where it was just one bar instead of many blocks. Maybe if you unified both factions HUD's but keep one or two features like the radar with it's respective faction colours, it might do the trick.
I can understand that in the brighter maps especially Hourglass, you can't see a damn thing. I think the HUD needs more translucency (Opaque) so that you can see it clearly, but retain it's cool see through effect. -

QUOTE ((NE)Fobby(GEN) @ Sep 27 2009, 01:45 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Beta Version 0.35It will be a Wednesday, so expect the mod download to go up sometime in the middle of the day eastern time (GMT -5). If you live in a timezone far ahead of EST, the mod will be available to you on the morning of October 1st.
As for servers, we will be talking about that on our release post. We will have 2 US servers available and 1 UK server on September 30th, ready for the release. We will also have at least 4 download clients available for you all.[/b]
You guys should read the pages a little more slowly.

QUOTE (AsgarothXc @ Sep 29 2009, 06:07 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>This mod works on steam, so I assume it will work on linux; obviously with the wine utility, correct?[/b]
Any private beta testers who use steam, can you please explain how you installed this?
Just copy to installation directory like normal? -
QUOTE (Mighty BOB! @ Sep 29 2009, 05:18 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>It's "Nod" not "NOD."
I think hosting a LAN game is going to be essentially the same as hosting a server or firing up the mod, although I haven't tried doing that.[/b]
I know!
I was merely iterating the error ingame! -
Relax! :lol:
The mod isn't going anywhere, not unless NOD freezes time! :blink:

QUOTE (Demigan @ Sep 28 2009, 09:59 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>how about it stands for the biblical 'land of Nod'? I'm not sure what the hell it means for holy christian things but there are lots and lots of references to the bible in the C&C universe. Pictures of Kane and Abel and other simbols. Kane himself actually has a great resemblance to the biblical Kane figure, who was described almost the same as the Kane we see in the game.
Yours sincerely,
Demigan.[/b]
Definitely agree there. I'm not too clued up about the bible, but I can see the similarities between those two.QUOTE ((NE)Fobby(GEN) @ Sep 28 2009, 10:36 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>I think the original idea behind Kane was that he would be the son of Adam, brother of Abel, aka the one who committed the first Biblical murder. Apparently he was doomed to the land of Nod because of that murder, which is supposed to explain his immortality. But this was just their idea in 1995, this could have [and probably did] change either by Tiberian Sun or after that.
Other religious references include the Marked of Kane, Seth crucified in the Temple of Nod, etc.[/b]
Yup, hence their full title is "Brotherhood of NOD."
Isn't Tiberian Sun a different universal from the regular numbered Command and Conquer series?

Quite an interesting read at the bottom. I didn't think games could have this level of depth when it comes to the story lines. -
QUOTE (=HT=Duro @ Sep 28 2009, 08:03 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>well when i read NOD or Nod on a C&C website or forum ,the first thing i think isnt national organization on disability so if its write with or without cap .. i dont really care, cause i know what it mean[/b]
hah
I thought Kane thought his baldness was a disability. Hence NOD
GDI stands for Global Defense Initiative, I'm pretty sure NOD does stand for something. -
Nod = National Organization on Disability :lol:
(not laughing at disabled people btw)

QUOTE (Doomgiver @ Sep 28 2009, 11:54 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>I have a question for the release of the beta at September 30th, when I saw at your Moddb page the new screenshot of the Renegade X menu:
Will the beta already contain full bot support or do you plan to add it later?[/b]
Read the update...
No bots are implemented yet, but in the future its a possibility. -
QUOTE (Mighty BOB! @ Sep 28 2009, 03:49 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>No, it's just UT3 and the most recent patch and the Titan pack all bundled together. [/b]
Cool cool!
Bought it today off steam. Cheap as chips! :lol: -
The one thing that's bugging me atm is that outline of the units. It's great thats it's finally been wrapped properly but I'm not sure about it sticking in the foreground. Ie, the green lines should be behind the engineer. (not visible where the engi is)
Although this can easily be avoided if you switch to the 1st person view.
I could be wrong though, just my opinion!

Btw, is UT3 Black a special edition or something? -
Brilliant Update!
I just cannot wait any longer!

That's because I was a n00b back then and didn't know what cool gaming aliases you can use.
I now use "BLaZor"

I noticed how jagged and edgy the HD trailer was, hopefully this fix will sort out those issues! I can't wait to Play Ren X with smooth and detailed textures! -
QUOTE (Demigan @ Sep 22 2009, 09:20 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>It's the small yellow boxes (black stripes on the lid I think) that turned around in mid-air. They were so useless in the game as it only gave you either money or refilled your ammo, that practically no-one knew what they were for or where they were. Only when money was an issue people tried to find a crate.
So on most servers they now have incredibly big gray boxes which give a shitload of various things, example:
Random weapon crate: you'll receive a random weapon, from sniper, flamethrower to railgun it's all possible.
Beacon crate: you'll get the beacon of your team in your inventory, no extra charge. Unlike in the first crate editions it doesn't go off in 10 seconds
Money crate: get a random amount of money up to 1500 I believe. I usually get a ton of money on maps I don't need it and then 8 credits on maps that you do
Death crate: sucks to be you, your dead. If you are in a vehicle, your vehicle is dead
Nuke crate: big badaboom a nuke explosion where you stand, killing friend and foe alike.
Random character crate: gives you a random character, usually from your own team, basic infantry excluded.
Spy crate: the crate everyone hopes to get, you'll get a SBH trooper but with the added ability that the base defences don't fire at you untill you specifically have destroyed a building. There's lots of paranoid tactics (justified paranoia, but paranoia all the same) to keep one of those out.
Vehicle crate: damn handy at the beginning of a game, you'll get a random GDI or Nod vehicle, this vehicle doesn't count to the limit and it's so usefull to have a flame tank checking for SBH in islands
Yours sincerely,
Demigan.[/b]
Awesome! Thanks for your indepth reply mate!
I never played on servers that had those types of crates. The only way I knew how to get credits was by either; waiting for the harvester to return to base or keep on attacking the opposition.
Also, you said release date is the 30th. What about the time difference? I'm about 5 hours ahead of the US as I live in the UK. Is it the 30th local time? -
QUOTE ((NE)Fobby(GEN) @ Sep 22 2009, 03:32 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>You mean crates? Yeah they will be included. I think we're having only money crates in the first release, and then adding the other random crates in a later release.[/b]
I haven't played the game in ages, but I don't remember there being crates? Was that boxes you destoyed to gain credits and ammo? -
UT3's AI is awesome. I don't know what crap that dude was talking. :huh:
Besides, the only thing we can actually change movement wise is the movement scripts for the characters.
