Re: "Would you ever..." game :)

Would you ever ride a sport car on highway with high speed just because you were given opportunity to do so? If it was at the old time Autobahn, then yes. Would you ever risk stealing the Nazi war plans whilst escaping from your incarceration at Castle Wolfenstein which would greatly benefit the Al...

Re: Biggest in-game mistakes

When playing against the latest NullBot on 3.1_beta10 in SK-Startup I would rush quickly to cripple NullBot's base and resources early, taking the long back route to avoid the scavengers. When I crippled their base and left my units on patrol, eventually they had really powerful anti tank weapons an...

Re: Weather Conditions

Sand storms in desert (or rather Arizona) areas would be a interesting tactical situation. Units would have decreased FOV and decreased direct firing range, they'd have to resort to sensors to be of any use. There also could be weather situations where VToL craft are significantly disadvantaged and ...

Re: Bridges?

I think bridges wouldn't make much sense because you have hover propulsion (yes I know well enough about the disadvantages it has but if you micromanage you can mitigate that), VToL's and of course the Super Transport (skirmish) in 3.1 beta. Though bridge building WOULD put edge this game closer to ...

Re: 3dfx glide wrapper installation?

Yes, nGlide wraps 3DFX Glide API calls to Direct3D 9, it relies on some shader functionality too so that's why I recommend you have a perfectly supported D3D 9 device to ensure nothing goes wrong. But not all wrappers are perfect due to how the whole thing works in the first place. In general though...

Re: 3dfx glide wrapper installation?

I'd recommend nGlide if you're on windows as it seems to handle alot of games really well, but GPL WZ2100 does not use Glide it uses OpenGL. You can enabled coloured cursors in 2.3.9 under mouse options but not in any of the 3.1 beta's. As for particle effects, what exactly do you mean? There's smok...

beta9 seems to have broke the "FastPlay" mission. Upon starting I apparently have control over the scavengers as if they're on my faction. And the following floods the log: info |08:26:52: [pal_GetTeamColour:102] Attempting to get colour for non-existing team 4294967290 info |08:26:52: [pa...

Would you ever try to shot a bird which is flying, with bow and arrow trying so long until you shot down one? :) Yes, to do that is to have great skill and patience which would lead up to you becoming one of the best archers in the world.
