Mod project (No name pl0x), Something I've been doing a while now Options

[chaos4eva]

I've been making a mod for a while now but not much work has been done on it for a while so I might as well just announce it. It includes some fixes on bugs listed here http://www.deezire.net/forums/generals-zer...s-ea-games.html and it also includes some stuff that I was crazy enough to imagine.

It also includes some bug fixes from Pro:Gen and some other goodies like when you cross-tech (e.g China capturing Tank General buildings).

Here's a small changelog of what (I remember) has been done.

I'll post SS'es later on when I get time

EVERYTHING

-All sides no longer have early sciences for purchase. That means no more Frenzy at level 1 for Fai, no more Carpet Bomb at level 1 for Granger

-Max General's points increased to 9
-Oil Derricks now give $2000 when captured and give money between 10 seconds now

looks nice

Do you think you could save it as JPG next time BMP is so big. Also you can upload images to a hosting site linked to to this forum using the image uploader:
http://www.cncmaps.com/index.php?showtopic=3442

You can then display the image in your post in advanced edit mode.

[chaos4eva]

Noted. I'll be sure to do that. In the mean time, here's a pic of the Super Weapons Gen's howitzer

Updated list a little

[chaos4eva]

Updated slightly in bolded words.

[n5p29]

-Pilots now benefit from Chemical Suits

exclude this from your list. Many have tried that (me too), and just make the game crashes.

and I see your mod like the combination of ShockWave mod and my NProject Mod. But I won't stop you, go ahead, it can be different.

[chaos4eva]

That really won't be necessary. Seeing as work on this mod has stopped since March due to my school life interfering with modding, which has caused me to totally lose the will to mod.

Oh and in case you don't know, this mod IS Chaos Hour.

[n5p29]

okay.
and oh, sorry for this offtopic, but, are you still in recolonize mod team? if not I can exclude you from the team members. thank you.

[chaos4eva]

Yes you may exclude me. I just couldn't find time to tell you.
