Sonic 295 Posted September 15, 2012 Ares v0.2 has been released and its available for download now. Ares is the next generation of binary-based Command & Conquer modding. It fixes and enhances the Yuri's Revenge game engine in a variety of ways, allowing modders to expand the game with never before seen custom units. Ares 0.2 is the successor to Ares 0.1p1, which was released in June 2010. It fixes many original game bugs, improves performance and adds several new features for modders. Visit the official Ares site for the download and more information. 1 Share this post Link to post
Alex06 39 Posted September 15, 2012 Released? More like, the team abandoned everything and just released their latest, unstable build. No one tests the stable builds and they just keep asking for more features and taking the latest build and using it all the time. The team receives very little feedback. To me, the idea that they've decided to just give up and release their latest buggy version is not good news at all. Share this post Link to post
General Recon 0 Posted September 15, 2012 Yep, I don't think the new version of Ares released for download. Anyway, such a nice time to see Ares 0.2 came out. Share this post Link to post

Just because DCoder left doesn't mean Ares has been abandoned. AlexB carries the project and he does a very good job at it. Share this post Link to post
PurpleGaga27 39 Posted September 15, 2012 AlexB carries the project and he does a very good job at it. He's involved in the RA2/YR project as well? I thought he was busy patching and improving RA1 with Arda. Share this post Link to post
Doctor Destiny 41 Posted September 15, 2012 The current 0.2 release is pretty stable anyway. It has been for quite some time honestly. Been using it for months. Share this post Link to post
Banshee 28 Posted September 15, 2012 They've been receiving more feedback since the creation of the unofficial Ares forums at PPM. This version may have bugs like any other, but it has received a lot of testing for sure. Share this post Link to post

That is not what I've been hearing. But I'm glad it wasn't quite the case and that I was wrong, then. Share this post Link to post
Doctor Destiny 41 Posted September 16, 2012 Yes, of course it is. Well, it is so I don't see the need for your usual snarky attitude. Share this post Link to post
Plok 323 Posted September 16, 2012 Well, it is so I don't see the need for your usual snarky attitude. I mean, it's great regarding features and all, but it sure loves to crash a lot. Share this post Link to post
Banshee 28 Posted September 17, 2012 Have you tested it to be so sure that it crashes a lot? It depends mostly on how you use it. If you misuse it, it will have a tendency to crash a lot. Share this post Link to post
