Spring RTS Engine

they would be useful were humans are useful on todays battlefields. I served in a mountaineer military unit and we had practically no tank-ish units besides a small one that could be transported via helicopter. if there would be a mech which can carry stronger weaponry and armor while still being as...

wow, nice to see such a heated discussion about TA2 :)

...

personally, i wont believe it until its actually official.

maybe lowpoly because of the limitations of the engine?

"Finished the texture for the shield frigate: http://www.bilder-hochladen.net/files/big/7t4v-5y-b1d1.jpg http://www.bilder-hochladen.net/files/big/7t4v-5y-b1d1.jpg all frigates finished ( yay ).. now on to the dreadnoughts Depends on how "big" they are do you mean that in regard of th...

but BAR has one (two?) atlas for all units? I would have 1024er textures for roughly 20 units in the end, each unit one unique tex. I remember, that my first unit with a 1024 tex made spring freeze (1-2sec) when it was spawned the first time. Not that unbearable but still not nice. I will keep the v...

rouge-like 4x. Well I'm sold... who's gonna make it? we could try a reverse kickstarter: we go the money, we are looking for developers... stretch-goals include coffee-breaks and pizza delivery every second day... ... and when they are finished we take the program and have to tell them that, regret...

"Finished" the texture for the EMP frigate. http://www.bilder-hochladen.net/files/big/7t4v-5x-091d.jpg http://www.bilder-hochladen.net/files/big/7t4v-5x-091d.jpg I wonder if its possible to use 1024*1024 textures for the larger ships or if thats too much for the engine to handle. If anyone...

that actually sounds kinda cool. Though i would like it as a 4x game. Diffrent sectors of the ship as capturable tiles, diplomatic options, espionage and sabotage and such mechanics could work quite well in an environment, that is fragile and can lead to game over without simply getting wiped out as...

why the invulnerable warpgates? to make it like in the TA missions? or because of a gameplay-reason? Personally, I think its one of its stronger features to have to force your entrance on a planet which is solely occupied by one team via drops and space units.

I believe I will be changing it to "Oh Don't Die" , but that's probably some @##@ing Chinese game or something.

Survival of the sheepest?

woah, that close-up shot of the elemental looks really nice :) mind sharing the tri-count?

will it have a working Battle Claw for close combat?

didn´t work for me when i tried it, but i´m sub-par when it comes to coding

... the right one is a Daishi, right?

... and the Madcat, ugly as ever ^^ Is the scale correct? Shouldn´t the Direwolf with its 100t be taller than the Timberwolf(75) ?

the Elemental (?) looks a bit lost infront of the giants

so how would i get my "airplane" with turrets to pass over its target, like a bomber would, instead of acting like a fighter and dive head first towards it? When i tried to make a unit like that a few years back, it did´t work at all. Would be nice, if one could simply use a unitdeftag to ...

(4) No, it's already clear from unitdef what is/isn't a bomber; don't duplicate info

does isBomberAirUnit=true actually do what he described? Because if not, that would be a very nice thing to have.

being a sheep isn´t as easy as it used to be :)

its possible, but fancy luaing is required

hm, might be wrong, since its been nearly a decade since then, but in the beginning, flares had no visual sign that they were in effect. but its nice they have it these days.
