Spring RTS Engine

That's all I can give you, and I hope it works becaus it's made for ta, and if you really want this, you'll have to do the rest of it yourself.

You can already use TAK scripts AFAIK. There are some get constants that aren't implemented because they have no meaning in Spring (e.g. "ON_ROAD" makes no sense as there are no roads).

The development forum is for engine development. Please stop coming here begging for someone to port ta:k for you.

Sorry about bringing a dead horse back to life, but I'm going to work on porting TA:K to Spring...

I'm working on everything, models, scripts, even TAK maps...

Check if the movetype you're on gives you >1 speed?

Right!

Dunno, I have no idea what ON_ROAD was used for.

In TAK, it really made a big difference in the story, but whenever a unit hit a road or trail on the map, there speed would increase. It's just one of the many differences b/t TAK's coding and TA's.

Have you seen the spring maps with proper roads? Units just love to use them.

When I get around to it, I'm going to make plenty of maps with roads. I'm going to try and re-create the old TAK maps.


Here's what the mod looks like so far:

jk, although one day, I hope it may look somewhat like this. But for now, I'll stick with doing what must b done in order to make it stable.

First off. I may have trouble with copyright laws as far as the units in-game go. I've tried to edit them to look presentable, but they just won't look, normal. I have thought about using custom units instead of the classic Aramon, Taros, Veruna, and Zhon. But I just don't wanna take any chances. What do you say?

I don't think you would ever get in trouble for using the TA:K ip, on the other hand you might as well make up a new story with new guys as ta:k was pretty generic.

You're right... I thought about making a new story line.... I may start after my first stable release.

I used to make units for the old TA:K and I'm going to use them along with other cool 3rd party units to make the game a little interesting.

Feel free to use my units from "the cursed":

And here are some units for an elven race I never finished (it is just a small mini sub-race for Zhon so far):

It is all very old .3do stuff, but maybe it is of some use for you.

I really would love to see TAK running in Spring. Keep up the good work!

Awesome! I will definitely add these units. Do you want me to use any specific names for the elven mini race?

Name them and do with them whatever you want.

So after the undead race you're working on now there will be an elven race?

What!? No!

I did "the cursed" for TA:Kingdoms years ago. It is a fantasy themed undead race.

The race I am currently working on is something like "the cursed II" for Spring. It is a sci-fi themed undead race with the same name. So don't get confused.

Hmm, I never played tak, I thought those 3do's were like the mod you're making now, but in 3do

A fantasy elven race would be cool for your mod tough

Thanks Hoi! Until I rework all the old races models the Elven race may be the only race (it looks good azaremoth).

I actually meant for azeremoth's mod, lol, but an s3o tak would be very cool too:)
