General GideonX

A lot of view but no replays thoughts anyone?

Thank you everyone and more is coming (not just more media but more features) such as the hall of fame (which will honor those who help me or win Crimson Dawn compitions)

well anyone been there and looked around?

webpage: CRIMSON DAWN Everything is up and running, ingames of the new mars terrain, movies, all sorts of media and the beginning of the story. There are also forums for more info just read the new section of the page. Hope most of you have fast connection I only have the flash site done which is ment for high speed the frame should be along at some point. Enjoy!

No need I could not stand the idea of ads so I bought my own domain and it should go live on servers in oh 2 days or so once the name servers get updated.

There are alot of those around but I'm not sure if there are any that are free because the one I'm using is not, its called sound forge. But go to downloads.com and see if there are any there its worth a try.

Sorry I been gone for a bit life has gotten busy but the site is all but done I just have to workout something with my host because I don't want a add banner on every page of my sight so I have a way of getting ride of it and i just need to get permission from my host or i my end up just moving it and releasing it right away. Anys for you questions: 1. To query multiple build command only works for a line build in which the same building is produced over and over again seperated by a curtain level of space. Not useful because after it builds the first you have to manuly tell it to start on the rest. So you can't que buildings that way, that can only be don in unit production. 2. Voice are easy just save you voice as a *.wav file then put it in the data/audio/speech folder then reference it in the speech.ini then make sure you assign that speech set to you unit. 3. PhotoShop, 3DS Max, and Vue de Spirit. Are what I used for those that is just some of my software suite.

Don't rush perfection I've had to do alot of debugging and trying get the page to run smooth on as many different computers and browers I can. What I see may not be what others see so I have been spending alot of time to get it just right it will be much better then having it rushed and the way I'm doing it will allow me to add to it later with ease and I need my host to approve it, but is they do not get back with me soon I will post it anyways.

I always have listend very closly to the public and tried make the games and mods as best I can to give people what they want. Over a year ago I made a mod the was completly designed out of the publics requests and I had the skills to do it.

Yes the webpage is almost done it has integrated flash and alot of very nice features it is not your avg webpage. The verion I working in is more on the high end I'm going to also make a low end page but that will not happen for awhile but I think most people have flash players and the lates web browers.

What I'm doing is similar in mannor (not the same) to other mod except it will be a complet replacing of all code there will not be *.big files to add or other folder with graphics and code to add it will look very much like normal generals except all the code and graphics will have been changed with no extra files added. Also there will be addtions in the code to allow burrowing units, jumpjets, Zero Space, Forcefields and more later to be reviled to the engine which was not possible before. There will also be addtional software with it to make it run without CnC installed but that will be part of the intaller. The only reason you will need to have the CD is to ensure you have Generals I don't need to get sued for given an instance of the sage engine away to someone that is unauthorized. Also as you will see all my code and graphics will be copyrighted meaning knowone can taken them or use them without my permission, that will also include the pictures seen on the webpage which should be up by todays end or tomorrow IF all goes well.

The old code is no useable it would be nice but the code structor is much different from the past CnC games one because its was the first 3D CnC and two it is all OO this time.

Well I'm 23 but you could do this stuff maybe at 20 or so I've been coding since I was 13 so for 10 years now. I have programmed alot of time for my young age. But if you want to get good games learn OO thats what they all are any more.

I can hack all the other CnC games but the code is not compatible. And yes a demo will be relased around that time. I'm getting close on the webpage I wanted ingame shots of the new mars map (all new map textures and objects.) and there are two issues with the buildings system 1 the radious from the CY and 2. you can not make other buildings add you your build radious as it was in the prior games.

it would be nice to make such a thing but you all are awhere that there are serious coding issues resulting from making it this way. 1. You limit yourself to 12 buildings max (forever!) 2. the best you could hope for is to increase the distance you can build from the construction yard, note you can not build any farther the code does not support building off of othere buildings like the old systems did. So if you want to make very small bases unless there is some way to trick the code that your conyard extends the whole map but then you could build a building right in there back yard...
