CREATOR CAN YOU SEND ME some screenshots of the apocalypse devise

Screenshots are not ready yet. I need to rework big nuclear explosion effect first.
When screenshots are ready, I will make them available for all, not only for you.

creator i send you some maps for contra in your e mail (sorry for my bad english)

At first, you can send me them here on Revora using private messages. At second, my E-mail is written in Contra_readme.txt, which can be found in the archive with Contra.

i made 5 but the other are my best maps
i'm now creating another map

[Soul]

Can we see any teasers of those maps ?

[fieldwings]

Very pleased with this new set of changes, nothing I dislike, many of the changes I've wanted for a while now but didn't really see them making much of an impact. But as they say, it's the little things...

- Infantry general: Gattling upgrade was moved to rank 1.

Just curious, to what building was the upgrade moved (previously was on Propaganda Center)?

- Infantry general: Artillery target designators can build infantry now.

So it doubles as a mobile Barracks? Or does it only train a limited set of infantry? Can it train 4 at once like a normal Barracks, as well? Will the AI use it like this?

- Infantry general: Fast troop transport has been added.

Just a simple transport? Or can infantry fire out of it? Is it armed?

That's all I want to know for that list. But I might mention something... occasionally the AI will research Satellite Hack I, and rarely II, but never III. Were they ever supposed to research/use SH III? For that matter, the AI never researches Turbodiesel Engines for USA gens or Light Armor for the Chinese gens. That does trigger an idea... could you also have Light Armor affect the Supply Trucks? Would probably help if you're collecting from a remote location that's too "hot" to expand but not "hot" enough to keep the trucks away. Oh, and any thoughts on having the AI use Red Arrows/Super Red Arrows, and the ECM shells for the Howitzers?

Thanks.

It was moved to War Factory.

Yes, it is mobile Barracks now and can train unlimited number of troops. But artillery strike ability was not removed.

AI will not use it as barracks.

Just a simple transport? Or can infantry fire out of it? Is it armed?

Yes, simple fast transport with 8 places for infantry. Comes empty. Infantry can not fire out. Assault Troop Crawler remained too.

That's all I want to know for that list. But I might mention something... occasionally the AI will research Satellite Hack I, and rarely II, but never III. Were they ever supposed to research/use SH III?

Actually, yes. AI is programmed to use SH3. But it never does it becaulse of absence of money. It gathers resources constantly. When it gets $500-$1000, it ALWAYS builds a tank, a soldier or something else. So, never gets enough money for SH3 and other expensive things. I know about this and I will fix it.

AI fixes were not implemented yet, but planned.

Very good to hear, thank you.

I'm not sure I like that idea !
But we'll see

[Casojin]

If you want to bring troops quickly into battle, this is a choice. Troop Crawler is too slow.

Right. For that reason it would seem fitting if the transport were buildable right from the Command Center (the way basic infantry are trainable from all GLA Command Trucks). I mean, if you get to the War Factory, you'll want the actual Troop Crawlers since the infantry can fire out of them.

It was planned for the end of february this year, but new things are in progress (debugging, mission maps, new models and textures, new language for china faction), so probably its the best to wait untill they are finished than release one version, and 2 months after another version.

Man~~! The New posted Karkadann tank looks crazy, I wonder how is it when get to close combat. .

[fieldwings]

I can just see a human player leading a charge with like 3 Karkadanns in a row surrounded by Scorpions and Quad Cannons, constantly regenerating and shredding a base... man. I wonder if it could out-kill a Bertha/Yan Wang... if those are Stinger launchers like it looks like on the back of the turrets, I would think it could.

There are no stinger launchers back on karkadann,he only has 2 turrets with 3 barells on each turret. He is artillery unit,and resurrecting is slower process,like recycling.

So, it is a long range killer. That will be interesting.

I know this is a bit late, but why are you changing the unit voices for everyone, Creator? I love hearing unit lines from the Dawn of War games, even though your efforts to match similar units are somewhat poor.
