C&C : Generals Evolution : iiPrepare yourselves for a total conversion of Generals on brand new RNA engine. We'll bring you back to battlefield with stunning visuals and physics, we'll keep old stuff to for your enjoyment!
This mod will contain original Generals Models and Voices to keep game classic.
If you hate Generals models/voices - No Worries! Mod is competely OPEN SOURCE, yes, that's right, entire Mod SDK will be released to public use to make mods for this mod, dawg.
Let me list some mod features :
>>Cinematic Vehicles Destruction, powered by RNA engine.
>>Stunning particle effects.
>>Original C&C Generals Models/Voices with added Specular and normal mapping, which fits prefect.
>>Adaptive AI, which never bore you and amaze you everytime.
>>Remakes of original C&C Generals Maps.
>>Balance ported from original C&C Generals.
I am trying to recreate all original C&C Generals features, but you know, something is impossible, i don't have a list for now because all is going great.
Now let me explain why i have moved mod to RA3 engine ( RNA ):
>>It's more stable.
>>Physics engine is more powerful than C&C One.
>>Some things like dozers and Generals Promotion is only possible in RA3
>>RNA is more faster than C&C3
>>RNA has more features which helps modders to do their job quick.
>>Networking engine is way better than all C&C games had.
>>RA3 atmosphere more fits to Generals one.

Dude I stay Tuned for more!!!
I knew this will happen, somehow. Glad to see that it's still alive.
Nice work
Signs of life, excellent. I bet this will kick ***.
Good to see it alive :D
(buried)
Ra3 engine? Not tracking anymore.
The Engine makes the Game no more than the Brain makes the Comments. In this case, at least.
Why the RA3 engine? It's really a downgrade from C&C3. Cartoony, blocky and locked. A buildgrid? Seriously, I hoped we would have gotten away from that in C&C after Generals. You cant even change the music in the game from the RA3 soundtrack.
No, I disapprove of this by a great deal.
>Cartoony
Fixable
>blocky and locked
whatisthisidonteven
>A buildgrid
More convenient.
>You cant even change the music in the game from the RA3 soundtrack
I can, i did.
If its true what you say, then its all fine. Im working from my own experiences (Was involved in the making of The Red Alert), not just spitting out random stuff.
A build grid is classic C&C..... In fact, the lack of one is one of the biggest issue I had with Generals.
No offence intended, but just because you weren't able to figure out how to do something doesn't mean someone else can't. After all, we all don't think alike. :)
What about the main menu and all other menus that still has their default music on? Those music cannot be modified and neither does the UI on the whole main menu.
People take a look at the screenshots. Yes so its RA3 but srsly the mod doesn't look cartoony in fact thanks to the newer engine than TW the effects look stunning.
How is this not epic win? Moddb.com Moddb.com
I shall upload more media with totally new maps and generals assets for people who still hate RA3 engine, when you look at it you don't even notice that it's RA3. Doing my best from this side.
The Ra3 graphic makes it look like Generals Zero Hour : Enhanced mod only brighter. I really like it. Its good to see this mod is back and kickin'
Well so where is your work on C&C 3 generals?
Forgot to mention that, it will be released with SDK as additional assets for modders pleasure.
Это великолепно!
w00h00
its back and its alive :3
This looks so ******* sick I can't even stand it. What'll happen to all the old assets though?
Amazing work ! Models still needed?
Sure thing, if only i can get unwraps and stuff i can make HD pack.
I was worried about cartoony and bouncy crusader tanks, but the first video assured me! Keep being awesome!
RA3 Engine? this mod will ruined in cartoony graphic...
*looking the screenshot*
uh, okay, GREAT!
DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE... That's like the best effects i've ever seen in cnc O_o!
So will this become a RA3 mod or will it still retain as a C&C3 mod with the updated game engine?
RA3 mod.
I hate cartoony mods.
Red Alert 3? interesting ...
1 - As you will change the shell menu and menu music for RA3?
2 - How will achieve skybox in RA3?
1 - Will wait for Megumi Apt Editor.
2 - Is this really necessary?
For question 2, it was possible back in C&C3 A New Experience when all maps have been modified with sky textures and a new camera look. RA3 has yet to achieve that. Also you could use JonWil's modified AptUI sidebar mod to get 12 box objects (instead of 9) to build from a Construction Yard, War Factory, etc.
1 - You need to resolve the question of the main menu music. Or you will throw a mod of "general" to the soundtrack of RA3 playing in the background?
2 - Not required. but ... want to keep the shell menu with a background map in the main menu? that map needs to have "a heaven".
Great idea guys !!! Waiting for more
The return of the particle effect god! Keeo the good work! :D
Words.
Words, my friend.
Cannot.
Describe.
How.
I.
Feel.
Truly amazing! Please co-release on desura.
:D :D :D
Ya know i'm actually quite all right with this so long as not every unit has two abilities.
Also how will resource management in this game work? Will you attempt to simulate the old Generals model or will you be keeping the RA3 model?
Simulate&Keep.
wow genEV actually looks kinda nice in the RA3 SAGE. hope to see some gameplay vids.
i wonder if it's possible to simulate flashy FX like that in the C&C3 SAGE. They look beautiful :D
Not completly true. I've done Generals promotion in C&C3. A good Dozer system is extremly tricky (I dont mean the mobile ConYard). I managed to implement a system that almost works like the Japanese ones in RA3. Just wanted to mention that. ;)
Anyway, the rest is plausible and probably a wise decision. Maybe I will also switch to RA3, if the engine can convince me.
You have +1 Tracker now.
>I've done Generals promotion in C&C3
AI uses it? I've done that too, but it's hacky thing with constant crashes.
>I managed to implement a system that almost works like the Japanese ones in RA3. Just wanted to mention that. ;)
That's awesome mate, i'd like to see it :3
Thank you for watching mod, i always appreciate it.
Usage for the AI... I knew I forgot something. :S I will do my best.
Well, I would like to see the RA3 Dozer style in action. Could you make a video for all of us, please? :3
It's very very WIP, not sure if i will even use it, C&C style building seems more convenient, but i'll do my best to keep community happy.
when when when when????? waiting for release date
Well, this mod will make me buy that disappointing RA3 fast hotshot of a game xP
But now i understand the engine change, tough i would like to hear a more detailed explaination...
Still a shame that the last great game of cnc was TW3, and that they canceled theire own generals reboot wich sounded very promissing while sadly had the same exaggerating touch RA3 prooved to be something that can't carry a crappy cheap made gameplay xP
My hopes for this project is that it is not only a gen copy, but stepping a bit out, fixing issues (tough i don't remember much except the moneytrain drops of usa wich got fixed in :zh!) and bringing in some good tought proven new features like the renegade x team did with the neutral buildings and some really necessary improvements compared to original renegade, sadly they broke mlrs but it was op anyway^^
