The Original Tiberium Mod - New Update

[dbjs2009 25]

A new update of the Original Tiberium Mod for C&C3: Tiberium Wars has just been posted by Helge129 and it's available to download by clicking here. This update replaces the blue and green Tiberium and their "hubs" with a brand new model which you can see in the pictures below.

 

More information can be found right here.

While it does look better than the original C&C 3, I think it's far from looking as good as it did in TS.

[dbjs2009 25]

I agree..

[Gben 20]

At least in my opinion, I think it because the old style tiberium field was more tightly compacted where this newer style is wider spaced.

And because the old style was creeping aggressively, you got the sense that it filled in every gap.

The Tiberium in the second picture looks a lot better than the old one, It's very cool actually..

[BioBen 3]

but it looks way too under control.

It's also supposed to look semi-organic. Tiberium should be something that almost looks and spreads like a living creature.

I just think a simple re-coloring of the tiberium of would have done a big difference.

 

I'n Tiberian Sun, the tiberium was acid like green and glowing in it's respective color as well. In Tiberium wars, the tiberium is colored dull bluish green with an immense amount of bright light shine from it.

I've never understood why the tiberium needed that change. It didn't improve anything.

Liked the mod, but unfortunately Helge129 isn't releasing the model source code for this unlike what Carnius did for his version of Tiberium models.

What they essentially seem to have done in TW was to make Tiberium look like kryptonite. I actually don't think it looks bad, but I agree it deviates from the theme that it is almost a life form in itself. The new look might have have been more acceptable had it not been for the fact that they got rid of the tiberium environment and mutants.

 

In terms of the mod though. I personally think that the Tiberian Sun Rising mod does a better job of reimaging the Tiberian Sun version of Tiberium

@PurpleScrin: How do you know I'm not releasing the model? I've just not gotten to do so yet.

 

@Topic: I've not actually tried to directly copy the Tiberium from TS with this new version, however it's based on the Tiberium crystal concept art from Tiberian Sun.

Does that mean this is the second part of that file? Or what?

[Helge129 1]

It means, it includes all textures and w3xes used in the newest version, also the refference XMLs for the textures. Not the XMLs for the Tiberium itself tho.

[PurpleGaga27 40]

Thanks for releasing the source code, Heige129.

No source code, only source art files actually.
