Tiberium is our new lifeblood, and it compels us to nurture and cultivate it's new soil.

Never mind. I got it working by assigning the Forces of Corruption exe file and directory as the target.

Help.

My directory is: D:Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Empire at War Forces of Corruption\Mods\Halo

What do I do? It didn't work.

I don't know if it's possible to alter Bobba Fett's jetpack (also clone, not replace) to simulate a flood jump/leap, speed etc and not as far as the jetpack normally lifts you.

Flood combat forms should have sprint ability.

Indigenous unit I presume?

Later perhaps an AI controlled faction? Both can be the case.

Imagine a crashing transport ship hurling itself on the reinforcement zone, and this "ship" then generates indigenous flood infection forms:

Also, I wrote this on a different mod wall:

"I think you could implement the Flood in a way which would make them more than mere indigenous units, but at the same time not a full fledged faction. Give them the Zann Consortium's slot minus most of their arsenal and stuff. Give all of their units the advantage of being unseen in galactic mode like the Defilers and the C3PO/R2D2 combo so they can raid your planet without a space battle (would be difficult). Treat them like an antagonistic mini-faction that could pose a significant threat if left unchecked. It has the Zann Consrotium AI coding built in, which you can change and modify. They would never be a fair balanced side if it was player controlled, which is why it's left for the AI to control. That being said, they can have tricks of their own that differ from UNSC and the Covenant that give them that little extra edge(I was thinking a mobile indigenous building that acts like a crashed wreckage, like a HEV pod except that it remains in place until destroyed by exterior force, spawns infection forms).

Flood base buildings would be along the lines of:

Cave dwellings, abandoned structures, wreckage piles, etc etc."

What sort of design did you have in mind for the Covenant?

It would be cool if there was these maps where you had the option to secure an island for it's oil derricks and protect them, like the Ra2 map "Bering Strait". So similarly you needed an amphibious or air transport vehicle to get engineers over there. Something similar here perhaps?

Edi: Oops wrote on the wrong page

Are these models(speaking for all 4 of them) shown in the gameplay videos?

It looks to me like they are based on the Allies and Soviets combat doctrines. What they are doing is not so much about being "real life" as it is about making a cool mod. Many of their scetches are actually based upon and inspired by existing concept art that was done for early, later and unreleased WW games as well as other modern war themed RTS games.

Ok. Did you try to ask for this information? I would think it would be put to good use in this mod and credit him for that, or does he have plans to return to ZH?

Edit: Ah nevermind, I guess that was the main research he had.

So is there someone in charge around here?

I'm not sure how far Assassin got with his Tiberium coding for TSR (ZH version) before he decided to leave the ZH version and focus all of his efforts on the C&C3 version(which obviosuly has it's own Tiberium system built in). Did he share that knowledge with you?

The Brute Chieftain could be a second Hero unit, but I guess the limit is set there in regard to Brutes since the Sangheili(Elites) are the mainstay of the Covenant arsenal. The Halo 2 version looks too furry and Chewbacka like, the Halo 3 Brutes are much cooler looking indeed.

I wrote in reference to the part about "infector ships". An infected covenant dropship (Hijacked and ascended from the swamps of Halo) boarded the CHS-class Harvesting Frigate called "Infinite Succor":

Well something like that did happen in a Halo comic.

What are peoples opinions on the following:

Yippee ki-yay, ************! :D

Farseer, it seems to me that you feel that The Flood is much like the "Zerg", and Halo Wars having contributed much to that false assertion it doesn't perhaps come as a surprise. But I think it's just a coincidence, like there's been a converging inspiration on the part of StarCraft and Halo, both being very much inspired of many of the same sources, although Starcrafts inspiration source is leaning much more on the Warhammer universe I must say.

Halo is much more reminiscent of concepts in Alien, even the very first encounter with the Flood recorded in the Halo lore is something which blatantly gives a nod to the old famous derelict at LV-246.

It's not friday yet, guys. :)

Your completely missing the point. Drop zones should remain as they are, but you could model a structure to look like carrier of some form, which is stationed permanently on location until destroyed. The "carrier" will act as an garrison spawner, maybe for the Flood.

Well you can limit as needed.

New gameplay possibilities to consider:

It would be interesting if you could order a ship that crashes/lands and becomes a building with it's own garrison.

Thank you for creating this group!
