I'm back again with another release, version 1.01. Thank you to those who gave feedback on bugs and balancing issues and thank you to Ares' AlexB, Starkku, Rampastring and the crew at PPM for helping me solve some issues with the client.
I'm happy to say that I've moved the mod over to a more user friendly platform which most of you are familiar with; CnCNet5 Client by Rampastring. The client's UI is modified lightly to fit the new side's theme and once I have all sides playable I'll move on to making improvements to the client's look to make it unique to the mod.
v1.01
This version brings a lot of balancing, art tweaks and new features. Credits are listed in the readme file as usual. PLEASE make sure you read the readme file for installation instructions.
- CnCNet5 Client
Basic support added, you're now able to start normal skirmish games and
online games via the client but there are bugs:- Due to the way the client works, it loads up playable countries via the game's list, and ignores the rules set by the mod and allows the player to choose unplayable sides which result in instant defeat. A quick remedy is not to select the "DO NOT USE" countries and don't random/let the AI random
