Hi, guys.
Despite recent attacks by trolls, who tried to wipe the mod from ModDb (and even succeeded in doing so for a few days), Generals Universe continues to live and develop.
As some of you may know, after experimenting with a zillion of engines ranging from RA3, BFME II to Cryengine, I've stopped my choice firmly on C&C3 - unlike RA3, C&C3 allows to recreate the Generals gameplay closer to the original.Needless to say, this won't be a pure remake - some features like classical dozers are undoable (thanks to EA's cuts from the engine), so anyway this is going to be rather a Generals-inspired mod.
The development of the mod is no way paused and I hope to publish some playable beta in first-half 2014, esp. if...

Important notice
I have a dire need for modelers who could help me with creating new assets and recreating Generals units. So feel free to PM me if you happen to be one.

PS:
Unfortunately we haven't made into MOTY-2013 this year, but a friendly project Rogue Republic
The project aims is sort of fan-made "Generals 2", but unlike EA's failed attempt, takes places in its own universe, with Russia, Intermarium, EU and Great Turan as the main factions. Also, it's the last day of IOTY-2013, so (in case you wanna) - you can support this and other favorite projects by voting here.
Just click "Vote" next to you favorite choices.
Stay tuned in 2014 for more updates, more news, more Generals.
DetroyT, signing out.
we should target some tomahawks on those damn trolls
You do a great job, CNC GENERALS fans believe in you.
Don't give up, we are waiting for your beta.
Indeed, there is a dire need for good RTS games. C&C:TW was not a good RTS because the end-tech units were way overpowered, it gets boring.
The Generals universe worked. This is why this mod is so important, I think.
If you are not sure you can release in Q4 its fine. We are patient. But you want to change it to "TBA" so people will not be disappointed.
