Wow, extremely nice work SK! Would've been nice to have this a few years ago. I'm glad to see such effort being put forth for this game, tehse are some really nice ehancements you have made.

Would be really nice to see this out for the public but I could see that as being maybe a bit difficult, and definantly annoying. Your choice though (or whoever it is you leave it to if not yourself), i still salute you for the work!

To some extent, things need to be shared. Things that can better the community. Models used for a mod like RA, Reborn, Commando, and etc., they have the right to release them publically if they want to IF they made it themselves. The blood the Seaman posted would be a great asset, but didn't post on how to do it. Models that ACK has, why not post them? Instead of teasing the community, share it. What's the worst that can happen?

"OMG! YOU POSTED ON HOW TO DO THE BLOOD! MUAHAAH! NOW I HAVE IT TOO!" Razz or...
"NOW I HAVE THE E3 MODELS. NOW I RUN AND HIDE!"

That person will be concidered a much better person and asset to the community. But, of course, we all know what the next few posts will say. :rolleyes:

Silent Kane posted awhile back about the extending the view range for the Renegade engine. That topic turned out a lot better then lots of others (like this one Razz ).

This doesn't. It's too cool for other mods!

Welcome to the Renegade community Laughing

Im use to it now aswell you should be, this isnt no big suprise....from my very 1st post here up until now things have never changed...you get a few tips here and there from some nice people, but a majority of modders are to into doing things for themselves and a selected community, all of them want there ass kissed....."If you want anything done youve got to do it yourself" has been the motto for Ren community for a long time.

Im always willing to share anything I know or have made with anyone who wants it...Always been that way, will always be that way.

I know exactly what he meant. He was tooting his own horn, saying "hey look at me im so cool cuz i do things but no one seems to care that much about me."

A community is what you make of it. If all you do is bitch and moan, as the majority of you are prone to doing, all you get is bitching and moaning.

If you don't mind me asking, SK, how do you creating the new dialogs? Not the entire code to display it, I just mean, do you have some text file set up where you type things like "make dialog("Purchase Terminal");" in it or is this all edited through an exe? Or is this say, in a scripts.dll file or something similar?

This could open up a lot. Such as commanding AI, that may be nice for skirmish.

Why should I share my (hard) work with the low quality mods in this community?
That would be an insult for my work.

Because they put all they have in their work, like you.Sure, it aint the best and it aint class "A".But they are motivated to do what they want.
An insult is to use your work and not give you the appropriate credit.
I, for an example, am working my ass off trying to figure out how to re-enable dazzles in Generals.I believe it is possible, since i found everything, possibly related to dazzles in the generals/zh game.dat but currently world builder reports some pretty strange errors.I tried even pm-ing Eric Kearns if he can get me Greg Hjelstrom`s mail or something, because i want to talk to him about a few things, related to W3D, but i never really got an answer.I am not doing this because i have an "uber 1337 mod in teh makng!!!1111" , but because i want to benefit to the Generals Mod Community.That wouldnt insult me.That would make me proud, for adding to the collective.
But what am i saying?Its like you will even listen...people never do...

Thumbs down with you. :rolleyes:


Currently what BHS is doing is a joke.
There is hardly any moderation on the boards,
there isn't any sign of support for other C&C games than C&C Renegade unlike promised, several BHS members constantly violate the code of conduct without any kind of consequences (punishment) and it takes ages to get a model approved for RenGuard.

It's my work, so I decide where it goes and where not.
And some dazzle re-enabling is different from the work dialogs take.

Anyhow, the dialog stuff will NOT be publically available.

That he should realize this is how things are and will most likely always be.
AKA...this is no suprise

Kind of ironic your the first person to reply afterwards.

Typical selfish person...Thats why you put in all this work is for people to care about you and kiss your ass.

I could care less what people think of me...Ive enjoyed what Ive done for Renegade and dont mind sharing any of that with anyone...Infact I'd rather see more people doing things such as mapping and modding and finding more ways to have fun with the game.

A community is not what you make of it but is what you put into it. The more work and thought put into a community, the stronger it is and the bigger it grows.....you wouldnt know shit about a community if it bit you in the ass

It shows you have a kind heart and care about others, and wish to help all!...

........not that anyone really tends to care about being something like that these days.......

In your view, what would make a mod go beyond "low quality"? Unusual ideas? Gamplay? Art? All of those?
