Another thing: I'm on the first Titan mission (where you rescue the 3 lots of survivors), and the game automatically makes me fail straight after Collins tells me to rescue the CCA guys. It tells me that one of the NSDF pilots I was supposed to be rescuing has died, even though that's not the case.

Bombers, hmm. I'll look into the sound, and the walkers sucked in BZ1 too (sasquatch did anyway), and the Golem has been fixed a bit, it should be better. Yeah, Sasquatch did suck. But it was able to hold its own against a single scout, unless my memory fails me :D . Probably a result of the better...

Just been playing through BZClassic pb3e and noticed a couple of things. Sorry if these have already been brought up. - In the instant action missions, when I selected the 'attack' option for one of my units, the enemy recycler/factory/armoury drop-offs would show up under the list of things to be a...

a bunch of the IA maps i collected and included have custom DLL's, so they won't use the cerberi race. the FE Variety maps spawn the cerberi race. Okay, thanks. As I said, I've been using Dunes to test it out, which I'm pretty sure is just the stand AIPs. I haven't tested it out recently, but I do ...

Was that in pb6.2? With me, if I don't change anything in the Instant Action menu pre-game (except the human and AI races, of course), the enemy Recycler will spawn, but a whole bunch of warnings come up in the chat box and the AI won't progress further than building scavs and a fabricator (sometime...

You mean the 1.3.6.5 one? No, not yet. My internet has been atrociously slow the past few weeks and I can't really download any large files. Is this issue fixed in that version?

Hi everyone! It's been a while since I last played BZ2, but like so many others I find myself continually returning to it. It really is a timeless game (made more so by the dedicated community). Firstly, I'd like to thank the people who continue to put effort into modding/patching this game. You all...

As much as I would love Activision to help out the BZ community by remarketing the game, the truth is it's not going to happen. As far as the companies involved are concerned, Battlezone is well and truly dead. Only forums like these and a very dedicated fan base have kept/are keeping it alive.

this sould drop a splinter mine after it hits but that can be changed to any thing you want but it will have a random heading. Okay, this didn't work (didn't drop the mine). I think I'm going to give up on the flak missile concept for now. I've been trying to get the splitting mortar to work, but t...

The other alternative is to have the launcher be a radar locking torpedo launcher; the torpedo, since it is an object (as opposed to ordnance), would be able to have chunks in its explosion (much like how vehicles have chunks when they explode), and the chunks would be able to split off of the prim...

It's just made me think that would be a good trait for a new race - a recycler that deploys on a normal scrap pool, and acts like its own extractor, so that you don't need to build a scavenger until/unless you want more pools. It would kinda suck if played on a map with no base pool, though.

Make your hover recycler require a pool and it works fine. It is just a hover scav and a pool (or custom pool possibly with masking so it can't get confused with normal pools) where the exactor form is the recycler. Scavs can add to scrap bar when still mobile, can even act as silos or scrap genera...

Thanks everyone. I'll have a fiddle around and try to put some of these things into practice. Some of them I don't know if I'll ever end up using (namely the ones that require DLL, which I don't know how to do atm), but it's nice to know that they are all possible or 'fake-able' to some extent. EDIT...

I've been doing some very minor modding (ODF editing and map making) for a while now, and I'm thinking about trying my hand at some 'larger' modding in the near future, like model making and such. Before I do that, I'm curious to know what Battlezone 2's limits are, so I was wondering if the followi...

Don't worry, MrTwosheds, I won't. And even if I did, it would never scare me away from BZ2. Maybe the online multiplayer, but never the game itself. Anyway, I had a great MPI game straight afterwards
I'll see you again sometime.
