    Mods compatible with Campaigns?

    It's just frustrating because when I did the missions for Red Alert 2, I wanted to try something new, so I installed the Aftermath mod. It was fully compatible with the missions. I then moved onto Yuri's Revenge where I have always used the Eagle Red mod for as long as I can remember. The Soviets missions work fine, but not the Allied. To make things worse, I have played those missions with Eagle Red ALONG time ago, but I forget how the hell I did it lol.

    What I meant was, being able to run through the missions using the Modifications.

    Funny Generals Reference

    So my friend sends me this random YouTube link of a promotional video for WWE (which I don't watch anymore lol), he tells me to watch and pay attention when the video hits around 2:12 on the timer, so I do and I was like...WTF, Generals...in WWE? Really? Usually they just have punk or rock music playing, but to actually take a song from a video game? I enjoyed it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=819S_tRUU8Y

    Problem installing YR

    OK, cool. Thanks for getting back to me on all my questions. You've all been very helpful and rather fast on getting back to me. I visited here about a year ago and received some hastily replies. I like it. Thanks again! PS: I made another topic for Yuri's if you want to check it out. http://forums.cncnz.com/topic/16350-mods-compatible-with-campaigns/
  5. Anyone know of a good mod that is compatible with the single player missions? I usually play with Eagle Red and I can only do the Soviet missions. The first Allied mission messes up. Your objectives are to capture power plants to power the time machine. Well, once I do capture them all, and I kill all of Yuri's units, nothing else happens. I think Tanya is supposed to arrive, but she never does. Any suggestions?

    Problem installing YR

    Problem solved. My CD had a smudge that I missed the first few times upon examining it. I had some glasses cleaner and a cloth, and it installed finally. Don't you hate it when it's something so trivial lol. Thanks again though. Doctor Destiny, making copies of the CD, I just do the copy command or is there some special process?

    Problem installing YR

    OK, I will let you know the results later. Just curious though, why not run the compatibility in Windows 7? lol And, I have ALL the CD's from C&C, could I copy ALL the contents of EACH CD so in the future if my CD's do get some scratches, I would have digital backup files?
  8. I recently tried installing YR for the first time on Windows 7 and I am getting an error message during the install process. When the progress bar gets to about 66%, it stops and a few minutes later a message pops up underneath where it says "Agent Tanya's report". The message says, "Could not read from file ra2md.mix". In the bottom right hand corner where the "Cancel" button is, a "Resume" button now appears if I want to try installing again from 66%. If click yes, it installs all the way up to 100%, only to give me the error again. How can I fix this so YR installs properly?

    Dawn of Tiberium Age

    Anyone here heard of this new standalone mod called "The Dawn of the Tiberium Age"? Using the Tiberian Sun engine, they implemented Tiberian Dawn into it and I must say they did a very good job. Personally, the working skirmish does it for me as I've been told it is nearly impossible to do on the original C&C. I am not promoting this mod in anyway,( promotion is a by-product of what I am seeking)however the game was designed mainly for multi-player purposes, and because of that, the AI in skirmish is very basic and does not provide a challenge. The game comes with an INI file and I've made some adjustments here and there, but only the small ones have seemed to take an effect. Does anyone here know enough about scripting ini that they could make the AI perhaps better? Build more buildings, mass tanks sometimes, etc? I believe the designer used the ini from TS, at least that's what it looks like.

    Good point, I spent so much time playing this recently I was still thinking in terms of "Dawn" lol. I guess I will copy it over.

  12. I don't claim to know much about coding a game, but if you write up an INI file here eventually, couldn't you set up the AI functions of a skirmish there? I know in Red Alert that all the functions of the AI are in the INI file. I know that's a different game but I was just wondering about it.
  13. What other kind of ideas you have up your a sleeve? A map editing tool perhaps? Working skirmish(as in...AI deploys MCV and builds a base)? Or is that too much code? I was reading a topic of yours here....http://forums.cncnz.com/index.php?showtopic=13910.... and I was interested in the color scheme. Where do I got to edit that? I looked in my directory but I only had one file I could mess with, the "conquer" file which is configuration settings.
  14. Oh really? Well so far I've just been breezing through the game without having to use those files. I did skip 2 missions I think and I turned to the saved files, but I didn't have any problems with them. As far as the CnC editor goes, I don't change much. Just some prices and speed of units. The light tank is ridiculously slow in Dawn and I set it to the same speed as the APC. That's about all I do with that, but it's good that you may include an ini file to work in the future. I've seen your name a lot recently on these forums that are trying to revive this game, you seem to be the #1 guy, so keep up the good work!

    tiny maps - help!

    Yeah that's it Nyer. 62 x 62 IS bigger than I remember. That's cool lol. Brings back memories of doing comp stomps with AI that didn't build bases. Such a shame
