Red Alert: Tiberium Origins MOD

Post by kaneCVR »

After a long absence, the mod has been redone to work with the latest OpenRA 2018 release! Download link below: (modDB page)

Version 0.87d is up!

Changes:


+ Added 3 NOD campaign missions - mission 1, mission 4 and mission 5.

+ New unit - the GDI Missile Frigate. It uses the same graphics as the TD Gunboat, but acts as a replacement for the cruiser

+ New unit - Black Hand commando - NOD cloackable elite infantry armed with a laser rifle and C4.

+ NOD can now build Gunboats.

+ Projectile graphics have been redone. Lasers are now thinner and darker like in TD. Rail-guns look much better, as both the projectile and the helix are now visible. Tank gun projectiles (tracers) have been redone. I used shp files from tiberian sun and DTA (dawn of the tibeirum age) to replace the standard 1 or 3 frame round projectiles, and they look great. Artillery shell contrail colors have been changed from white to a yellow/orange.

+ Added tiberium on some more multiplayer / skirmish maps

+ New shellmap made especially for Tiberian Origins using the winter tileset

+ Fixed the winter tileset

- Removed some RA mod missions from TO.

You can download the mod from my ModDB page: http://www.moddb.com/mods/command-conqu ... /downloads

- removed the Tiberium Research Facility from multiplayer / skirmish games. It will be a campaign unit only.
- each side has it's own EvA voice now. This is temporary as I might decide to have CnC sides have the female EvA voice (from TD), and RA sides have the British EvA from RA1. Right now, Soviets have the Female EvA with Russian accent from RA2, Allies have the RA1 British EVA, GDI has the classic female CnC EvA, and NOD has the Cabal EvA from TS. There is a poll on this, check the last post.
- Nod Stealth Tank now fires a laser instead of the rocket pack. More damage, same health. This was done to balance it with the Allied Predator Railgun Tank and GDI/Soviet Mammoth Tanks. It now requires both the Temple of Nod and the Obelisk of Light to be built, and costs 2200 credits.
- Soviet Tesla Tank hitpoints increased.
- Nod now has an Infiltrator Commando with a Laser Rifle
- GDI commando now has Anti-Vehicle capability to balance it with the NOD Infiltrator

There is a potentially confidential IMG_20131202_152932.jpg in the mods/ra/bits folder. You probably don't want to ship the whole ra folder including assets and the DLL yourself. Just create a new folder and reference what you need in mod.yaml as you probably only want to add your own rules, weapons and sequences. See https://github.com/Mailaender/OpenRA/co ... -exploring as an example for a mod that inherits most of the files.

10x for the head's up Cdr. Matt.

The JPG file must have slipped in there from my desktop while I was gathering the .shp files. Fortunately it's not confidential - it's just an old invoice for a friend's video card.

Regarding mod files, I'm having issues with the playtest... on the release, I can make the mod use it's own folder (/openRA/mods/to) put the playtest crashes when I try to run the mod in it's own folder... I'll post and PM you the error message maybe someone can help...

Have been getting the following crash lately:

Code: Select all

Red Alert: Tiberian Origins Mod at Version Alpha 6 release - RA folder
Operating System: Windows (Microsoft Windows NT 6.1.7600.0)
Runtime Version: .NET CLR 2.0.50727.4984

Don't think it's related to my mod, since the mod version designed for the Release doesn't crash.

Crash occurs randomly, usually in the first two minutes of the game.

Is anyone else getting this?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also, when trying to move the mod into it's seperate folder, I get the following crash:

This has been fixed in the latest playtest.

The CHANGELOG document includes a list of mod compatibility changes since the last release. A couple of things have changed in the mod.yaml format (you now need to specify the map directories explicitly, for example), and some of the default rules and sequences - particularly in system.yaml - have changed. This is why we recommend referencing the default rules instead of copying them: otherwise you will need to manually track our upstream rule and sequence changes each release, which would be a real pain.

I figured as much, so I modified the mod.yaml and system.yaml provided with the latest playtest - no dice. Whatever I do, I can't get the mod running outside the /mods/ra folder.

My mod will run fine in that folder, but when I try to move it, to say /mods/to, I get the "Exception of type `System.IO.InvalidDataException`: No valid shellmaps available " error. My mod.yaml si posted in the above - please have a look - I must be doing something wrong...

Also, while trying to implement the Tiberium Dawn harvester and Rafinery, I found some wierd issues... - SOLVED! -

1. RenderHarvester: switch will force the game to render the RA harvester. Had to use RenderUnit: instead, witch causes the harvest and idle sprites to overlap... Maybe it's related to the harvempty.shp and harvfull.shp? Also, the gather animation makes the sprite twitch while it's harvesting at a 10 oclock facing. - probably because the TD harvester has fewer gather facing then the RA ore truck - or because I used the RenderUnit: switch to get the game to render the TD harvester...

Solution - had to use the RenderHarvester switch after all, and mind the RA dll's wanting to render how full the harvester is, using alternate sprites!

This is the code that fixed it:

Code: Select all

	RenderHarvester&#58; 
		ImagesByFullness&#58; thrv, thrv, thrv
	WithHarvestAnimation&#58;
		Sequence&#58; harvest
2. Can't center the docking point for the Harvester to the Tiberium rafinery. I tried the DockOffset: switch...

Solution: had to use the TiberiumRafinery: switch - it solved the docking issue!

3. RenderBuildingCharge:
ChargeAudio: obelpowr.aud

Used it for the obelisk of light - doesn't work... no charge annimation, no charge sound is played... am I doing something wrong or is it a bug?

Still can't solve the "Exception of type `System.IO.InvalidDataException`: No valid shellmaps available " error when trying to get my mod to work in another folder.... any help would be greatly appreciated.

You'll want to add

Code: Select all

   ./mods/ra/maps
   ~^/maps/ra
to your MapFolders definition so that your mod imports the RA maps (including shellmaps).

This would be a good stage to make the changes suggested above for changing your mods/to/ copies to reference ra directly - this should be easy for things like lua, tilesets, chrome, which you (probably) won't have modified. The rules and sequences will be a bit more work, since you will need to extract your changes out into their own files first.

I see where you're going with this. I'll have a go at it. As for the rules files, I'll just add additional rules files (vehicles2.yaml, structures2.yaml etc) and declare them in the mod.yaml file.

Released Alpha07!

Alpha07 changelog:

- minor bugfixes
- added new cameos for Nod Airstrip, Nod Light Tank (scorpion) and GDI Main Battle Tank; old ones were the same as the Allied light and medium tank / Soviet Airfield
Image Image Image
- added Tiberium as a resource - provides more income than ore and gems.
- added Tiberium Refinery and Tiberium Harvester
- all sides can build a tiberium refinery, provided they have a techcenter.

!!!! only one map contains tiberium - A path beyond TO !!!! Started altering other maps, but the editor now crashes on launch.... Also, not there are two maps with this name - A path beyond, and A path beyond TO - ONLY the latter has tiberium.

Alpha 07 link: http://www.datafilehost.com/d/ed41aca8

UPDATE:

Changed the GDI HumVee cameo. Never like the old TD one, it doesn't show a humvee, it shows some old rusty vehicle in a field.

Image

Found some bugs:
- Ore Truck can dump resources at the Tiberium Rafinery.
- Tiberium Harvester can dump resources at the Ore Refinery

Could not locate any switch in the Traits list which would force harvesters to drop off at their corresponding rafineries. I guess I'll have to wait for someone to implement this feature? (ex. a DumpsResourceAt: proc / DumpsResourceAt: traf (actor) )

- forgot to add the silos as buildable for GDI and NOD

This is quite a reasonable request. You should add a ticket at http://bugs.open-ra.org asking for this.

Thank you for informing me of this issue... I've been going bonkers trying to get the mod running in another folder... guess i'll wait for the next playtest :D - keep up the good work!

I posted my request about dumping resources at corresponding refinery type - Issue #4323 -https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/issues/4323 - hope it's formulated well enough....

Got a little youtube clip featuring some GDI gameplay vs. 2 normal AIs:

Both the "no valid shellmaps" and harvester docking issues have been fixed in the latest playtest (20131220).
You'll need to add `SupportsMapsFrom: ra` to your mod.yaml, and `DeliveryBuildings: <refinery actor name in lower case>` to your Harvester traits.
