Spring RTS Engine

Here is a clean thread where you can download my units 100% working.
Plz keep this thread clear, I need comments and critics on my other thread, not this one :p
I'll edit this one when new units will be done.
Again, what I do is 100% free to use/modify by anyone.

Since he stopped working on it, all stuff he made:

no .wing format for me to improve my work on

go to file>import and choose the filetype you need, then find the model and import it

see this is what i think we should do - remake the OTA models with the same proportions and similar textures, just higher poly. and of course UV mapped, something that no OTA models have, which is just sad lol.

100% agreed.

I'm thinking of making a BA mutator that's basically "as free as possible BA" which uses all these remade models (picking the one that's truer to the "original" in case of multiples). I suspect it will look very inconsistent at first, but as more and more models come in it will look a lot better while still playing the same.

So, I tried importing the wind generator into BA, and it seems to load fine, however there is something wrong with its script - the blades don't spin.

no wind?

I built a core wind generator (using the old scripts) next to it, just to make sure, and it was spinning like crazy.

Thing is, you could probably remake the important bits of BA- One faction with the econ, flash, stumpy, samson, some air units and most of the static D) and have it be totally IP free. It wouldnt be as diverse for the more niche maps or strats but it would be the same for Comet and you could probably even replicate most of the important stuff about DSD. I mean you already have the whole of t1/t2 vech for one faction, though many need new scripts and the core logo removed, but thats easy considering. $10 you will want to make some gameplay changes too though, probably wont be able to resist once you get you really start working on your own mod...

The problem with windgens is that CA uses luarized wind. Our e production values are scaled to 1/10th of BA, wind depends on elevation (stronger higher up), and you can override wind entirely to mod-defined variables (on by defualt). So the script interacts with the lua, not with the map-defined wind values. Use the old script (though its OTA).

Anyone have the ships that Cremuss made? His site is down now.

Anyone has a script of the wind gen that works fine and makes the wing gen spin and turn as it should?

You need to open the Cremuss model and change the object names to those matching the original 3DO. That's how I fixed it.

The Arm wind gen does have the same part names.
I had to take the core script,rename it, and just use it on this arm wind gen.

Can't this go into ca too? As a morph option for normal solar generator? Perhaps in 1faction?

Please don't hit me if I said sth. inapplicable...
