Rusty Le Cyborg

Good evening....

Recommended Posts

Hello there

 

Just re-discovered the C&C and RA games in my cupboard and thought I'd try and relive some of the fun from <ahem> a few years ago... (and I was old then!)

 

Used to have all things Westwood, kind of gave up in the EA years...

 

Even helped on a few mods for RA and beta-tested Sole Survivor <cough> (which I actually liked a lot) Game nick was "RG500" back then...

 

Here's a question for anyone that knows...

 

The Reborn mod for Renegade. Is this the one that used to have a cool "flash" type site and a download which had original music by Frank Klepacki? Or did I dream all of this? I read on these forums that Reborn was not a good mod and that it is being remade by another team, but what happened to that music? Does anyone know?

 

BTW - Is there a file repository out there for C&C related stuff? I seem to have dicovered about 4 or 5 CDs crammed full of zipped mods and the like for most of the early versions.

 

Cheers for now

Hi there, welcome to the CNCNZ.com forums..

 

The Reborn mod for Renegade. Is this the one that used to have a cool "flash" type site and a download which had original music by Frank Klepacki? Or did I dream all of this? I read on these forums that Reborn was not a good mod and that it is being remade by another team, but what happened to that music? Does anyone know?

 

I think this rusty cyborg has his wires crossed. The Reborn site to my knowledge has always been in HTML. The original site never had any music... If you are thinking of a site in flash that plays all of Frank's music.. you can go to C&C flash by clicking the link below..

BTW - Is there a file repository out there for C&C related stuff? I seem to have dicovered about 4 or 5 CDs crammed full of zipped mods and the like for most of the early versions.

 

A first good stop is our own files section. We have a good couple of gigabytes of stuff... A lot of people trust us for our downloads, 2,470,280 downloaded files to date can't be sniffed at...

 

http://www.cncnz.com/files/

 

However if you do not find what you are looking for I do recommend one site only, and that is C&C Files

 

http://commandandconquer.filefront.com/

 

Hope that helps you.

Howdy doody <ahem>

 

No, I don't play Generals I'm afraid. Only really play the missons through again on the other games. Not played online for quite some time.

 

<edit>

 

Hey C&C King - thanks for that. I shall take a peek at the files section. I was really asking to see if I may have something that isn't up there ;)

 

About the Reborn thing. I definitely didn't dream that, though it is possibly not a Renegade mod. It might not even be called Reborn!!

 

It was a mod/conversion for one fo the C&C games which had two download links - one without the music pack and one with. It was an extra 50-80 megs or something. Umm.... I can't be the only one who remembers this and it definitely wasn't an official expansion. Maybe I should email Frank - he would know I guess!

 

</edit>

 

One thing I thought about recently is how we all used to use batch files and the like to install and run new expansions for C&C and RA. With HD space becoming so cheap these days it would be just as easy to use MiniRA or something similar and install all of your favourite mods in different directories. Hmm.. I shall have to give it a go. :)

It's a link to the music used in the old version of Reborn. I downloaded a 260meg file from CnC Source earlier which has a file called "install.mp3" which is apparently a track called Lone Troop? by Frank.

 

Does anyone have this 143 meg file? Please :)

 

Cheers for now

 

Stopped the page from scrolling to the right. ~Fen

Well, I just did, and I'm surprised... but... then what do they do when there is a number like 1000? Do they do "1.000?"

Ruste Le Cyborg....

 

Welcome to the forums, you have a pretty unique name and somehow reminds me of a character's name in an anime.

Ummm... I hope so :)

 

I just don't have much news currently!

 

But I'm working on a little something for Red Alert fans. Not too exciting, but it keeps me off the streets....

 

More information soon. Unless I get fed up!

 

<edit>

 

By the way.... the name thing isn't THAT exciting :D

 

I used it previously playing Counterstrike (HL) -

 

The Cyborg is my favourite character from a boardgame called Talisman...

 

I am a little older than your average gamer, so I added Rusty...

 

and I used to play on a Belgian server quite a bit, so I added the "LE" part as a bit of a joke and I have stuck with it.

 

See, told you it wasn't exciting! :lol:
