Hey nobody, would you like to be in charge of putting all the maps together on the FTP so I can add a download section for them?

[00 Nobody]

Sure VG, I'd be happy to.

[PR 4 @LL!!!]

just before i D/L them them did u get the idea from dat PS1 game by any chance???

[00 Nobody]

BattleTanx is on the PS1 too? I thought it was only for the N64. The N64 one is the one I used as a base for making the BattleTanx Series.

[Fire Ze Missiles!]

I dunno about that but it sure is a great game.
Is there a way to build more stuff than just that M1A2 that respawns?

[00 Nobody]

On the previous ones, no, but the Full Frontal Assault map allows you to build defenses and tanks.

[Fire Ze Missiles!]

Cool, thanks. I found in the directors cut that one tank wasn't enough to tip the balance, but that's just me.
Rock on, Nobody.

[00 Nobody]

It's mainly because of the ships. If i coulda made it so they could only hit other ships, it would be lots better.

[Fire Ze Missiles!]

That's true. Still, the third one totally makes up for it. It was great fun. I much prefer the way that the spawnings were every few minutes rather than when all the stuff dies.
Its great that you can just watch the computer kicking the crap out of itself while your army builds up and its actually interesting. Not to mention the obscene amounts of firepower you get from one patriot battery. That was fun. Great piece of work.

[00 Nobody]

Thanks. I realized that the Director's cut was unbeatable, so I decided to make Full Frontal Assault more possible while still being difficult. The fourth one will be even better, with defensive forces for the comp and perhaps even places to gather scrap (supplies).

EDIT: Whoa.

I HAVE 22 DOWNLOADS FOR FULL FRONTAL ASSAULT?!?!? Guess people really like it then.

Hello everyone, and I am pleased to say there is a new BattleTanx map coming out!

BattleTanx 3 - Facade

Note that all these changes are for both sides. Essentially, its like 2 clones fighting.

This map has the exact same map.ini file from the previous one, Full Frontal Assault, but it has new features!



Airstrikes! Every 2 minutes and 30 seconds a group of 4 raptors will be launched and begin hunting the enemy!

Avengers! They spawn with the tank forces, to deal with air.

Secondary Bases! Each side has 2 bases, one large one and one supply base.

Defensive Forces! Supply bases now have small defensive forces, which will attempt to keep the enemy at bay while reinforcements come. The main bases have slightly larger defensive forces.

PRELOADING! This map will NOT lag very much, mainly because of a simple system i thought of! Instead of all of the units popping out at once, it's going to spend about 10 seconds spawning the defensive forces, and then it'll spawn the tanks. This will allow for a GREATLY reduced amount of lag.

And my favorite change.....

THE REPAIR DRONE IS BACK! Thats right! Your little repair buddy is back to help keep your army alive! And he'll respawn too! The tank waves even have 1 of em each!


This map will be released EXTREMELY SOON, as in, within 2 hours. I have EVERYTHING set up but scripts, but I only need about 10 more.

EDIT: Ok I think it's done! All i have to do real quick is check the scritps for victory and defeat. A thing i had to do to reduce lag (it became worse as it progressed) was make it so that the aircraft are destroyed after 1 minute of being out there

FINAL EDIT: It's done! Get it HERE.

we dont need any previous version do we?
just download that one for the full new version?

[00 Nobody]

Each and every map is a different experience, they all have different terrain and spawns, and ussually different unique features. For example, the first one has infantry, the second one has ships, the third one has construction and the abilty to build your own tank army, and the fourth one has jets that fly in and attack your enemy. All of them are good maps (though you may go paranoid trying to beat the second one, its nearly impossible), and are highly recommended by the PR community.

but....
which one is the map where i get all battletanx units
i remember playing that gane in my childhood.
do i need PR installed to play a battletanx map where i get battletanx units?

Edited by olli, 26 June 2007 - 02:54 PM.

[00 Nobody]

The second one is the first one to have all of the battletanx units, and after that they all have all of the units except the mototank and hovertank. I'd get PR for all of them, to be safe. I can tell you 2-4 need it though.

[olli]

Global assult is the one with all the battletanx ?
ok.
So Full frontal assult doesnt have them all, because this sounds cool and i wanna play with all the battletanx
so i download the latest version of PR, download Global assult...
then does Global assult have an instalelr or do i have to place them manually? (if so does it come with a readme?)

[Fire Ze Missiles!]

IIRC it has an installer kerthinger.
Hehe, that's the first time i've had cause to say IIRC. I'm strangely proud.

[00 Nobody]

you have to put the maps in a specific folder. Go to My Documents, then go to Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour Data folder, then go to the Maps folder. That is where you put it. If you want a more specific name, this is what you should have: E:\Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour Data\Maps
