I first placed many many years ago. I do not know what the terrain looked like back then.

I am remastering some of the missions in both games.

Yes and no. It is possible to mod each map to be more human like... but not as an encapsulated module to add easily. I am working on a few more maps I think could have been better.

Curious, did you like the "feel" of the AI? Any examples?

Which faction did you play as? I enjoyed seeing the difference of each faction. Question, do you think I should add Scin?

Yes, working on a new missions right now. I converted the C&C3; Scin Croatia map to "Choose your faction". I am contemplating doing just that change for each map and then slowly deciding to mod the AI to make them more adaptive.

I confess I am a GDI fan first, NOD second, and just play Scin to finish the campaign. So with that in mind, modding the Scin maps to allow GDI and NOD give a real return on investment for me because I now can explore the maps I did not play often with new factions.

PS I did make another map years ago, it is on MODDB also. "Shaka Zulu". It is quite hard.

I trick to get around IN GAME cut scenes is to save the progress PAST the scene. If you save it and die, you can load back after the cut scene.

I do not really know. Would people mistake it for multi player map? I don't see a lot of single player maps for C&C3;? I feel like people wanting maps are usually looking for multi player maps... but i could be wrong.

Yes I moved this map to MODDB because now that the SDK is out I can update it and add sound, video, and objectives. Working on that now.

you are very welcome. This mod was my very first, since done more in other games. I recently came back to see if I could make it better and easier to understand objectives now that there is an SDK (Which did not exist back in 2009 when i made it).

Also considering doing another map now that I have more skills. Just can not decide on what game... C&C3;, Grey Goo, or Starcraft 2!

not in documents DIR, look at the path above.

For windows 8 it will start with:
C, users, <yourname>, AppData, Roaming... jus tlike above. If you get to the Kane's Wrath DIR and there is not a MAP DIR, then make one and then copy my map into it.

I am headed to lunch will check after to see if you got in. Otherwise we can talk on steam?

If you are using a different operation system, let me know which.

Are you trying to play it in Kane's Wrath? If so, go to skirmish, custom maps. This is where it will be located when you place it in your maps Directory for Kane's Wrath.

Greetings,

I did not enjoy Red Alert very much so instead I decided to make this SP mission map. I spent 3 months of hard work producing this map for no real good reason other than I wanted some more C&C 3. :)

This map is broken into ACTs
Act 1 Swarm - You start out with a small fixed base, units and some money and you have to establish a foothold hostile territory.

Act 2 Four Corners - Now that you have a base and def and units its time to take out the Queens that are producing the Swarm of alien insects attacking you. You will be busy all over the map trying to collect money, salvage units, as well as holding on to the foothold you fought tooth and nail to create!

Act 3 Fur and Feather - Guard a convoy as they make their way through your territory

Act 4 Hold The Line - Time to take the fight to the enemy! You have to push the enemy back to choke points so that you can expand your base and make save airways for your reinforcements to join you.

Act 5 Scorched Earth - Time to Scorch EARTH!

Each has its own objectives and could be its own map but I wanted to add them together into one map for cohesion of the story. I worked out the story line before the dev, came up with some cut scenes and started to work on the missions.

This map makes good use of each units special abilities, stances, and Level ups. There are many small sorties in each mission with a Macro Objective to winning the Map.

There is a new form of resource gathering, a new type of enemy than the norm, and a new way of base building. I also script the upgrade and units you can get based on need.

This map is very difficulty as the game has been out for a while. I do not expect a ton of NOOBS just buying the game to jump on this, lol but they could it would just take longer to learn it. It requires some knowledge of the units and their abilities. You are rewarded for making the correct units for the job. Stances and leveling up are HUGE in this map. This map requires some strategic thinking and a lot fo blood shed!

I hope you enjoy, below are some pictures of IN GAME.

The Map's name is "Shaka Zulu" based on the movie I got the Mission map's idea from, "Zulu".

I moved this over to C&C 3 MODS. So I could post updates, pictures, etc. FYI

A mission I made back in 2009. Working on a new one now... wanted to port to MODDB since the game replays web link is a few years old.

Thanks for the info Diguner. That was helpful.

As to refinery issue i was able to find random posts as far back as 2009 on it via google but not resolution but it only does it in campaign not in skirmish or multi.

The rest I figured out, PM about tools. ;)

I very much enjoyed playing the single player campaign through with the R.E.A.R.M MOD. I do have a question, I see many ships on the MOD site that were not available in the SP campaign? Are they only in Multi?

I enjoyed many of the hard missions, there were a few super easy ones, but I wish there were more that required splitting forces to complete instead of just grouping in a death ball and rolling over the AI.

My biggest complaints were that there is too much money. Much like the original SP game I was maxed out after mission 3 and from then until the end. I often had 80K in the bank and could just consistently spam towers. I like a balance between being scrappy and battling with an empire's worth of ships.

I also think the destroyers, which is my favorite ship, are a bit out of place in the fleet. It is super fast compared to other ships its size and I could own most maps with just them loaded down with custom weapons. There also seems to be a bit of a glitch with them because they keep moving to the enemy until they are near touching ships? They do not stay and fire at range?

The MOD splash screens on MOD DB, and in game, along with the new ships and textures and simply beautiful. I had a very good time and commend you for your work. This MOD is superior to the original game but preserving the same feel.

Do you ever do freelance commission work?

Well I got around it. Apparently on the final mission when I try to get a cloaked bomber to def the mother ship it locks. What was I using bombers to def with anyway, :P
