Topics I've Started

An idea

06 June 2007 - 12:13 AM

I've recently made a couple of short gameplay movies with FRAPS (to help my girlfriend with Half Life 2). It is very easy to use... I was thinking that someone should make a trailer for the mod with a montage of fighting and explosions, to Generals music. Remix 3 has some very impressive powers and units, and seeing them in action would be fairly convincing to the prospective player. Post the video on Youtube - bingo, more people will try it out.
I am sure someone on the boards could make a good job of this, but alas, it is not me.

GLA

Why is there no clear thread about the GLA and what they are like so far? I'm just interested, you know...
My main question is: How are they going to be powerful enough to contend with the new sides? GLA (even in contra bar Assault) never had heavy units, or any highly destructive powers. Are the units going to be made silly-cheap? Will they have so many cool abilities they will be far stronger than their guns and armour suggest? If it's all confidential, I understand, but I still want to have a taste of what to expect.

PENDAELOSE HOUSE...

Pend you need to put the following into the damn readme (you would have saved me literally hours of my life):

"The AI does not do a god damn thing if you put Tournament Mode on".

It was only by random chance that I saw in another thread that "the AI does not do well with tournament mode". No shit it doesn't - it NEVER ATTACKS. It NEVER builds vehicles. PLEASE write it into the readme file to save someone else from the colossal headache that I had (was it 5 reinstalls?)

This will at least let me play against the AI even if it does not fix mismatch issues.

Somebody help me, please

Ok, I am having big problems with Remix. There are two problems but I am certain they have the same cause, whatever that may be.

Problem 1 : The AI never builds any vehicles. It acts normally to begin with, building quickly, but then just stops doing anything but building infantry (and never sending them to attack me). This is true on any map, with any difficulty (and yes, it is the Robot general). It does rape me with its powers, which it uses normally (cheating like hell on Insane of course). The fact I can beat Insane without breaking a sweat on an 8 player map should suggest something is massively wrong (I have heard how hard it is supposed to be).

Problem 2: The game will mismatch every time I try to play Olli, about 1 minute in.

I have reinstalled ZH afresh (twice in fact) making sure absolutely everything is gone before I reinstall. I have also re-downloaded Remix 3 2.29 in case it got corrupted the first time. I know all of the files are in the right places, so do not suggest that please.

The 2 problems suggest that somehow my version is different. I am using The First Decade, but my friend says the mod is working fine for him and he also uses TFD. It's a clean install, at version 1.4 (TFD forces that) but something is just plain not working right.
An additional clue: Olli tried to watch a replay of mine but it turned out differently (again, game version cannot be the same).

Does anybody have any suggestions as to what the solution is? I really want to play this mod, but I cannot due to this problem. Ok, give me all you've got.
