Re: MAC users, where are you guys?

I am using trunk. How can I make a Screenshot while playing? You need a external program to take screen shots of the main menu. I guess the application is called 'grab' For faster screenshotting: cmd+shift+3 - saves whole screen to file on desktop Alternatively: cmd+shift+ctrl+3 - saves whole scree...

Re: A few question from a new user

Clicking on a power generator should do the trick. If I recall it is "Power Generator, connected <x> of 4"; where <x> is an integer between 0 and 4. This should make it quite clear that the maximum number of wells per generator is 4. Regards, Freddie. Well, that's what Lazerbeat did, and ...

Re: Full Tech Tree and unit database

So because of a lack of a tech tree, I've decided to generate one. http://celerisdrive.com/wz/r/ This is completely automated, so by copying over the data/ directory of the source and running a few scripts, it can be updated to reflect the latest version. You'll notice it's all part of a larger guid...

Re: Warzone2100 slow on Eeepc..

Ok, afterall the eeepc is an ultra-mobile pc, it's first aim is not to play videogame. Why are we saying this so much? Warzone 2100 is a game that was released in 1999. It ran quickly on those computers. Even in software mode, I've never seen the retail version stutter. Nowadays, besides shadows, W...

Re: Two Suggestions

Cyborg composite alloys. Research three of them and it's pretty much enough that the only thing that can damage you is another flamer. After that, all you need is around three thermite flamer cyborgs to destroy an enemy base. Note that three thermite flamer cyborgs is only around 300 power. I'd lik...

How to contribute? (also: text file docs)

Hey everyone. So I've been here a while, and I want to help with coding. I have some knowledge of C and C++, although I don't have any experience with Trac or Gna or anything like that. So I'm not sure how I can help. I was wondering if someone could "show me the ropes". I've downloaded a ...

Re: Two Suggestions

On a different note, after doing some playtesting, flamers and flamer cyborgs are far too overpowered. I don't think, they are overpowered, since their Range is relatively short. Sometimes other Tanks defeat the Flamers, before they can even start flaming them. Well, thats what i experience. I don'...

Re: Warzone 2100 wish list - all can contribute_part 2

Ok, this isn't something I expect to be added to the game, but I think it would be really cool to have Mech propulsion, what their advantages to other propulsions are I don't know, and I doubt they could use the same bodies as the other propulsions - but it's just cool. They could be like bigger, s...

Re: Warzone 2100 wish list - all can contribute_part 2

Flamers are already quite powerful; when you first get them in multiplayer, you can destroy most enemy units in one hit. but thats just for early game. once enemies have upgraded with better weapons its harder to get close and the reward is not at all proportional to the risks at mid game To verify...

Re: vtol rearm ship

perhaps it shouldn't have any own weapons, but a VTOL strike turret, so you could assign a couple of the VTOL's it carries to defend the ship if it would come under attack (of course it should be defended by some escort ships as well). That would be a pretty good idea. It would be kind of like a Pr...

Re: Warzone 2100 wish list - all can contribute_part 2

-Faction diversity in early game and choosing between Project, New paradigm, and Collective. This also mean that you start out with different bodies. The problem is that Nexus bodies are better than Collective bodies in pretty much every way, which are mostly better than NP, which are mostly better...

This was a feature added in either 1.11 or 1.12 (which are unofficial mods). 2.1 is based off 1.10, and thus doesn't have them.

Re: 'Map preview' improvements

Not my fault the game was made when 640x480 was the normal resolution. :) For the other players, you can see the color & position when you click on the map preview button. For the AI, you can't tell where the AI will end up. As I said, that is assigned once you hit 'ready/start the game' ... We...

Re: Full Tech Tree and unit database

The problem is, there's no tech tree for 2.1. And it has changed (most notably, lancer is a lot harder to get). The other problem is, the old tech tree and the Documents Project tech tree don't show how to get to upgrades. For instance, if you wanted to know how to find Cannon Rapid Loader, where wo...
