TiberFCSL

I don't think the word "ignorant" as some kind of insult, to me just means that someone doesn't know something about a matter, just that, maybe for you is some kind of "tough" or "violent" word, and that's understandable because we all post here without even knowing from what place in the whole world the other person lives... so thank you for telling me to cool down, it helps a bit to keep this conversation like a conversation.

Again my friend, you're wrong, I don't know where did you get that information but it's fake in part. I'll explain myself. What you wrote in the first paragraph it's right in this part: "Tiberium spreads through contact with other susceptible material." It's right, because the so called EALA's "new" tiberium spreads this way, just by touching any other material and turning it into tiberium. What you don't understand is that's the way the C&C3 tiberium spreads, not the previous one. The concept of Tiberium was different as Westwood stated: they said that it spreads by pods and roots, looking very similar to a plant, leeching valuable minerals from the ground and condensing them into the green crystals we all know. If you don't believe me, try to investigate more, there are even FMVs from Tiberian Dawn in which you see clearly roots growing out of pods under the surface, then they "suck" the valuable minerals and the green crystals start to grow up from the pods. EA in C&C3 created something new and very different, and Renegade X is based on Westwood's tiberium. Just look at this video at the 8:00 minute and forward, that's exactly what I tried to explain. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7956943927480713200#

I didn't say that because of they not knowing the color of the pods, I said they are totally ignorants cos they said this: "the pods were just where the earth had been pushed up" and if you know well and have played Tiberian Dawn and Tiberian Sun obviously you can realize that's not right. And anyone who haven't played TD and TS is an absolute ignorant about C&C, don't you think so? Sorry if I was a bit "violent", but my intentions were far away from making some kind of "fight" or "insulting".

Dear R315r4z0r: The second way tiberium spreads was first introduced in C&C3, and Renegade - Renegade X too of course - are based on Tiberian Dawn or a bit of time after it, the point is, bringing C&C3 tiberium to this mod doesn't make any sense. And BTW, you forgot to say that instead of using spores from mutated trees, they appear with the help of giant holes in the ground with big subterranean tiberium crystals.

Sorry to tell you guys, but both of you are totally ignorants about C&C. The pods are not the earth being pushed up, the pods are actually part of tiberium itself, in fact, they look darker than earth, being almost black or totally black. Just play the first C&C and Tiberian Sun, or watch in youtube any FMV from Tiberian Dawn (sorry if you don't know, Tiberian Dawn is the name given to the first C&C) where there's tiberium on it. If you want more proof, I don't think that great mods that want to bring this both games to life in a new engine are ridiculously wrong, I'm talking about Tiberian Dawn Redux for Zero Hour or Tiberian Sun Rising for C&C3, for example. There has been a big debate about this fact being ignored in C&C3 by EALA, and that's why there are lots of mods that turn the "new" tiberium into the "old" one, Tiberium Essence is one of them. It's part of the fiction, and makes the difference between an ordinary crystal popping up from the ground and a strange alien lifeform-like thing that reproduces with the help of mutated trees. I may seem like a stupid man trying to talk about something stupid LOL!!!!!!! but that's just the truth.

Why nobody talks about the problem with Tiberium?!!!!!! It's also important to say that in the current beta 0.55 the tiberium it's allright, it has its pods. This BIG MISTAKE can't be forgotten and it has to be CORRECTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everything is perfect, but the tiberium. Tiberium has PODS, don't do the same mistake as Westwood did in Renegade and EA did in C&C3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You can't make tiberium without pods, and it's not a little problem, IT IS A BIG MISTAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry if you find this post offensive, that's not my intention, it's what I really think and I'm just trying to help the most I can.

I had that problem too, maybe you don't have the .NET framework installed, you can download it from here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...19-81da479ab0d7

So what's a ramjet?

BTW I understand this mod it's still a "baby", and the team has to do lots of things before even thinking about making new game modes. But I think it's still good to make suggestions for the future of the mod, it's helpful. For what I see, the mod is doing pretty well!!! Thanks for your answer and keep up the good work!!! PS: Because I'd like to contribute to the mod I was thinking about learning something, maybe some programming, if I have time to do it... so what can you recommend to get started? Of course by learning programming doesn't mean that I'm already in the team, but it can be useful for a good amount of things, maybe for making another mod, I don't know...

QUOTE ((NE)Fobby(GEN) @ Nov 22 2009, 09:06 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You know what? I'D LOVE TO DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!! But I don't know anything about programming But the good part of this, is that you are the founder of this great mod, and you liked the idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That makes me very happy and full of hope that one day this feature could be in Renegade X!!!!!! Man you made this mod and you liked my idea!!! It's such an honor and a pleasure what you just wrote. I absolutely love your mod, it's just in beta stage and it's so freakin' good. I'd love to contribute in any way possible!!!!!!! And giving ideas I think it's a good way to help. If there's anything I could do to contribute to Renegade X that doesn't involve programming, I'd do it for sure!!!!!!!!! Keep up the good work!!!!!!!

QUOTE (Cofeeburrito) Basic communication skills and mutual respect are not enough to have good teamplay, a commander would make this a lot easier. If I want to rush the base it's really difficult to get other people follow me. The commander has more information about the money they have and a minimap maybe, so it's better to follow its orders. But maybe somebody has a better idea to something on its own, well, he still can do it. But these people will be just few.

I have been reading other thread called "Lack of leadership" and some people talks about possible problems with Commander Mode, well, I've replied to some of them and I'm giving a possible solution. QUOTE (Vipeax) The commander can be chosen reandomly, with no voting. QUOTE (GummiBear) I don't think so, if they already know the advantages of a good teamplay, or if they are noobs, I think they'll listen to the commander. If they don't want to listen to the commander, they're still free to go and play the normal C&C Mode. QUOTE (other people) I think giving rewards to the players that follow the orders isn't good, that it's against free will and again, if they don't want to follow orders then they can go to play normal C&C Mode.

I have an idea, a suggestion, of a new game mode, of course it's too soon to make such a thing right now, but maybe in the future... if you like it... I don't know... C&C Commander Mode In every game, there is a "commander", I mean, a player who can give orders to the other players of its team. These orders could be given in form of private messages. This commander can be chosen before the game by voting or ramdomly. The commander in every game has to create strategies and suggest them (every player can follow them just if he wants, they still have free will). The commander could have some extra information about its team partners, like the amount of money they have and their position on a mini-map. The idea in this mode is to secure that in every game there is good teamplay and to make sure that everyone is crucial to accomplish victory. Sometimes happens in a game that you buy a vehicle and go to your opponent's base to attack, of course with one or even two players driving a vehicle to the enemy base it's very difficult to make a real effective attack, but with a commander these attacks could me more numerous, more well organized, more well thought. It happens, at least to me, in Renegade or Renegade X, that in a game most of the things I do are useless to the team, very few times I do something really useful. Maybe that's because I'm a noob. Well this game mode such things wouldn't happen, even noobs would do useful things. Think about it, every single noob would be useful and important to achieve victory.

If you want a C&C Renegade-like game in the Tiberian Sun universe, you have to play C&C Reborn http://www.cncreborn.eu/ It's a mod for Renegade but you don't have to have Renegade to play it. Unfortunately, the only playable beta has no vehicles yet.
