Tower Defense for RA2/YR

[g3n3r4l 0]

Hi @ all!

I've got a question to ask...

I wanna write a mod for RA2 (or/and YR) wich is like Tower Defense in WarcraftIII or C&C Generals and Zero Hour...

But i havn't any idea how does it goes...

So, please someone should tell me how can i find out something about this

I've got many progs for shp, vxl & co... so graphics are not the problem, only how can i write TD in the rules.ini

An other problem that i have is, how can i change the music in RA2/YR?

What is the right fileformat? I looked with XCC Mixer what filetyp it is...

But where can i find a tool, to convert my music in this format?

I hope you can help me...

Thanks in before

I've been wanting to make one for RA2 for a really long time. I'll supply the 'tower' coding if you supply the map.

oh, really?

that sounds good, but my problem is, that i don't know, if you need a complete change of RA2 or if it is enough to save special rules to a map (can be made with tibed "save changes to map")

i can make a map with the needed land characteristics(paths and so on) but first i need a working Rules.ini for the map editor (things like Units that send by the AI)

i have worked on TD a little but i need more informations about the "Wave-System" (you know what i mean?)

so troops, vehicles, towers and upgrades are not my problem

But i think over your idea, i make a map for it

How can i give it to you, when i've finished?

The thing about a tower mode would be upgrades. You can't modify the art in a map file so you'd need it as a mod extra. Supply the map coding and I'll create the towers and I'll have it as a mod extra and distribute the files for other mods to make use of it.

okay, i'll try it but it'll take somme time, cause i'm work actually on my own "normal" mod, title is "Armageddon Level 2"

Sounds interessting, doesn't it?!

I think i need 2-3 weeks to finish it.

Cause that i need some time befor i can start to make these maps, okay?

I'll contact you when i've finished it.

If you have some news/infos about TD, can you tell me?
