Current Version .07

Put some rocks! \o/

the original map didn't have rocks...

Model me a nice set of 5 rocks and I'll add them.

Redid metal map

also added custom metal patches

Wow, this was quite an honor for me to see!

For some reason, I am unable to play TA-Spring (it won't connect to a server). It looks like Spring has really become a superb product in it's own right, job well done to everyone here!!

C_A_P? The genuine one?

(And you could still play offline, you can't have mods and many AI, but by running Spring.exe you can play alone)

Yes, the genuine one, had a chat on msn and told him of the remake

I couldn't get it to work. I launch spring...it opens up some kind of chat room looking thing, where the only way for me to play is to connect to some kind of server. It fails to connect no matter what I do. I'm at work so I cannot give you the details of the particular build of spring that I have, but I wanted to check it out but was kind of baffled that they made you connect to a server to play a single player match. It was about 3 months ago that I tried it , and when I couldn't get it to work I uninstalled it. But I see that there are some newer versions out now so I will give it another crack :)

Yes, it's the real me, btw ...hehe. I've been doing a mod for a FPS game called Call of Duty the past year or so. My nick-name for the MercilessMod for CoD is "Chris_P". (both C_A_P and Chris_P are my real names, btw..hehe. C_A_P is first, middle, last initials of my name).

If you are curious, you can go to

Yea, sorry about that. I admit that I kind of just dropped out of the community. Honestly, it was due to a few things, I had a lot of crazy stuff going on in my life and I was also starting to burn out with all the time I had been putting into doing the maps, tilesets, tools, tutorials, etc. However, with TA-Spring coming into it's own and with all the recent Supreme Commander stuff, i'm starting to get excited about the game again. I reinstalled TA and Bryce, and I hope that I can download the new version of Spring tonight and get it working so I can finally check it out. I love the video's!


I'll have to check out TA:Universe again, I am kind of bummed that TAMEC seems to have gone the way of the dodo as well...

Open the file explorer and go into the folder where you installed Spring. There there should be a Spring.exe

And come back to the TA community!
Or Spring too. You did such wonder with TA maps and features and tilesets, I dare not think of what you could do in Spring.

...And if there isn't a spring.exe, we've found your problem

Well, can anyone tell me what was going on? I started spring.exe and it was basically like a chat room looking thing. I had to connect to a server, which never connected ....and when I tried to start a game it told me I must be connected to a server first. Very confusing !

Is the new version set up the same way ?

EDIT: I am a goddamn moron.

Hey cap! long time no see dude. I've been a long time (until recently) silent fan!

Could you please get ahold of me either by pm or tas client lobby asap?

I have a few projects that I'm working on and I would love to get a chance to talk them over with you (if ya don't mind too much that is :D

New version?
If you are running a version from 3 months ago.. that's a long time ago in the Spring world.
So get the latest and before you install make sure you have any old Spring versions removed.
Update you video drivers and run spring.exe for some simple single player stuff (select yes when asked "Do you want to be server?")
TASClient.exe is the lobby for multiplayer.

BTW I forgot to mention.

I will be redoing this map with my custom Evergreen Climate for l3dt. Look forward to absolutely beautiful terrain. :D

Foothills Basin will be redone in this manner as well.

I am also in the process of making a custom desert climate for l3dt as well. I'll keep everyone posted :D

TASClient.exe is the multiplayer .exe
spring.exe is the single player.


Maybe a renaming of the .exe files is in order... they are rather cryptic, and wouldnt hurt to rename... maybe OnlineClient.exe and SinglePlayer.exe ?
