Spring RTS Engine

SketchUp

A little off topic, but I did convert the DUNE TC to spring in a rather sloppy motion before mod selection was available. I could dig it up and polish it a little more if there is a demand.

YAY DUNE FTW

yay... dune tc Neuralize go ahead i wanna see how its done... i have never even tried dune tc on TA

Yeah, we want a conversion!

Masse, how much luck have you had putting that tank in Spring?

I'm playing around with SketchUp, and I really like it, but I'm at a loss as to how to texture the models I'm making. I threw a simple .s3o into the game just to see, and it had the patchwork typical of all missing textures in spring.

i havent even tested yet... tomorrow i gotta test adding it ingame

Alright, no promises, but I'll see what I can do.

Off topic another mod that should be converted is the Red Alert, C&C mod

Masse just a thourght to run by Have you Played Empire Battle for dune,
it is the latest Dune game Realised you should look into it and maybe start a project on that?

And, the ADD kicks in and I'm working on that too.
Which mod do you guys want converted more?
Dune, or C&C?

I might combine the C&C mods out there and produce a crazy super C&C mod

A la Allies Versus GDI versus Soviets Versus Nod.

damn the lame emperor battle for dune... well i had in mind something different... its partly old classic dune... and some stuff from emperor ONLY the good stuff (i dont remember any good stuff on that)

buts well i had it planned this way... all three faction will have UNIQUE look and feel
Harkonnen = heavy desing is heavy and futuristic (maybe little sinister and necromatic look)
Atreides = light and stealthy has desing from "nowdays" (basic rightminded humans)
Ordos = well i havnt figured this one out yet but something that looks like ORDER (rich ass son of a biaches with high tech toys)

Harkonnen(red) are the bad guys, Atreidies(blue) are the good guys and the Ordros...

they where made up to make three sides for a game, rather then a boring two.

But they are green!

Atreides are the noble ones. They are blue. They care for humanistic values.
They claim that only they fight for the just cause and won the native Fremen as allies.

Harkonnen are cruel and self-righteous. They are red. They want power and find joy in abuse. They subdue others by force.

The Ordos are cold-blooded and all they care for is profit. They are green. They want money and condemn ideological believes. They would never plead oaths or be loyal to others, all they care about is themselves.

Then there is the old Emperor, stuggeling to retain his power, but he fights a losing battle.

The Sisterhood of the Benegeserith, trying to maintain the authority of the Emperor by influencing the other partys with their psychic powers.

And last but not least the Space-Faring-Guild, the syndicate that controls all insterstellar travel, and is the main consumer of the Spice because they need the extended state of mind to navigate the hyper-space routes.


These characteristics are a rough synopsis of the races from the various games and films, but not from the book, which is much more differentiated towards the two main races (Atreides and Harkonnen) and focuses more on single characters.

Actually the Benigeserit only care for their own ends. They seek to creat, through selecive breeding, a super humain that they can use to controll the univers.

but everything else is actually pretty accurate to the book.

maybe you can add some random items to these tanks (adding random items is very rare :p)

like machineguns (vs aircraft)
or antenne/small radar for beter range
or anti-rocket system
or a laser to increase the hitrate
