Well for me, more realism=better gameplay
As for mods, I only have CC3 and the only mod I play is RR, so I guess its my favorite |

They had way more than 45 tanks, i'll go with at least 2-3 thousand, almost all of them underarmed and underarmored.

Amount of traingles for vehicles, dont know. Its coded in OpenGl it can do shadows and all that but it doesnt need directx. Plus side is that it is easier to port to different operating systems like Linux and Mac.
Maps I plan will be at least 200x2000 feet,I changed meters into feet since it is smaller for gameplay reasons, you would have to zoom out really far to see a decent sized part of the map. Almost 1x1km
The engine questions, im not to sure about, im no programmer, ill have to ask about it. A demo of the engine should be up in about a week, maybe two
temporary forums until we get the main site up

Great news! A programmer saw my post on a different site, and he has a nearly finished graphics engine that he wants used for an RTS. In a couple of weeks i'll probably have a demo to show some basic camera movement and some terrain. Its a great start, looks like this projeect can be finished.
Still looking for somoene to help with game designing
Edit-heres a screen

I started desinging a WW2 RTS game in the beginning of the summer with the help of a few other people, but things slowy stopped when one or my main game designers computer broke. Since then i've been working on and off and lost touch with many of the people that were involved. Things though, are starting to pick up, and I have a website currently being made.
Some of the features of the game-
-3d with realistic graphics
-basic gameplay elements of an RTS
-Limited base building- like a tent for the HQ building
-supply routes, supply trucks drive off the map on a road and after a given time appear and drive back to drop off ammo at a supply depot
-resource syatem based on requisition, at the moment its unsure how to do this (how you get it)
-Smart AI- think of it like CC, units take cover sneak etc...(better pathfinding though )
-Realistic armor for each unit, tanks can be immobilized/destroyed depending on the armor angle of impact what part of the tank and what size round was fired
-Bullet tracking system for units, much like and FPS
These are just some features that I have planed for the game, as you can see I want it to be as realsitic as possible. And before you say its immposible to do this just look at www.wildfiregames.com/0ad this game started out as a plan like mine and now look at it. Once I the website is finished Im going to start things back up again and try and ghet in contact with all the other people that were involved and get this thing rolling.
But the reason I post this is that if any of you can help or want to please post (mainly looking for game designers) I know this will take a long time but if any of you are willing and dedicated enough this can happen. |

Whats the highest amount of kills one of your units has ever gotten? Mine is a KV-1a which has destroyed/killed-
tanks- 8
vehicles- 1
guns- 0 (I think, have to check again)
soldiers- 72
but today one of the tank memebers was severly wounded and had to be replaced so the number droped down to 60 soldiers killed. |
