Work In Progress: Warzone 2120 Resurrection Mod

Post by Black Project »

I'm developing a new mod which will be the resurrection of the Warzone 2120, which never has been released.

But the mod, in fact, is a only campaign mode game mod which will change a lot the Warzone 2100 CAM, which make's feel you're playing a different Warzone.

To make it more interesting, it will have the same and hardest difficult of my Warzone Hardcore Mode: Tougher and Powerful enemies (Scavengers too!).

Another Features:

New terrain for a different and interesting look in game:

Teams Alpha, Beta and Gamma will operate in three continents: Africa, in Sahara Desert (Alpha) Europe (Beta) and Asia, in Eastern Russia (Gamma) in the coldests areas of Russia

Two New Factions: ICARUS (Alpha) and DAWN (Beta)

New Bodies for both factions.

Project will use the NEXUS bodies at the start, so you'll start with Retaliation body, after the progress, you get Retribution and Vengeance, but don't think the enemy bodies will be more weakers than these or NEXUS using them!

Replacement of the older weapons with new ones, many with new PIE models and new weapon sounds...
NEXUS cyborgs can now Jump! More job to your AA Guns too!
EDIT: Due of some issues, NEXUS cyborgs will not fly. Every time when my tanks take them down, the game starts running slow, and with the time, gets a runtime error, that's the reason

All progress will be posted here, so feel free to comment.

Screenshots in the next post:

Regards BP

- Sweet. :)

- Sort of a "Total Conversion" approach - smart. You can also modify pre-existing scripts that way too
without having to write them from scratch - like victory conditions, spawning cycles and spawn map coordinates,
for example. (which you can get cause you are already loading into 32EW)...

Hmm, a good example is increase at the max the starting power of the enemies in each mission, it's boring to see NEXUS running out of power in the last mission of CAM 3, so they cannot launch further attacks against me.

I'll try to figure out with that.

- Good point.... those Nexus missions start out really good but then peter-out and become anti-climactic because of
exactly the reason you state - running out of power they become a cake-walk and not a really satisfying way to end
the struggle, IMHO. They become wimps at the end and I too don't think it's much fun beating-up on wimps - they need
to be beat in final blaze of Nexus glory, heh.

good work, you are the best :D

But I see some new units with new body (white body ??) Can you make screenshoot of those Units (better i think) and say what are their stats plz ? ;)

The wall for the scavenger are great => are the white body, the body that the new scavenger use ? I ask, because in the first campaign it looks like the scavenger will be the only enemi on the zone. (that's right, is'nt it ? )

Just to know, do someone search the new technologie and map(texture too) who will be use in the Warzone 2120 ? (screenshot plz)

Warzone Creators, Pumpkin, had a vision and dream for their game - that it be "living", evolving, generative, fun - all
those qualities foremost.

You're work, the passion, skills, talent & perseverance invested to make it a reality, exemplify that spirit at a first class
level rarely achieved over the last ten years.

I can thoroughly appreciate what your doing and how your going about it. In addition to enjoying your efforts as a player-fan,
you have also inspired deeper understandings of the games promise, the value of supportive community (its parsimony too,
as in a vacuum, anything but) and, well, I could go on but, as the old saw has it, brevity is the soul of wit... O_o ..

Regards, whipper :)

It's the old school campaign with a brand new stuff, so a TOTAL CONVERSION MOD

I will release it in versions. A multiplayer version of this mod is going to be done, by the way, i'll try to finish soon as possible.

I just extract these textures (images) and edit them all with Photoshop. After that, i put them in .WZ file together with the mod.

How do you plan to tie the story together? Since you won't have cut scenes :P

Also, what about a prologue mini campaign? I suggested one in the other 2120 topic :cool: thought it may help link 2100 and 2120 together more.
