Myers you are one of the last people modding GeneralsZH and I love this mod (although I dont understand your choice of engine, its kind of outdated) :) But your mod is in a league of its own and this level of total-conversion-finishing-touch-and-feel compares to directly to giants like the Cold War Crisis mod.

Anyway, could you please include an invisible version of the EuropeanLandmarkBridge or just a simple flat bridge? Should be easy and would make a beautiful improvement to mapmaking. I.e. to create the illusion of units crossing shallow waters, rivers etc.

Also there are no ice textures, though lots of snow textures around. Could be a nice addition to any mod :)

Thanks and have a nice day.

I remember the CWC forums (sad it is gone).
People talked about this European Alliance for years and the team tried to tell them there was no European Alliance during the Cold War but they kept on going...Quite hillarious!

The CWC mod stands out from any other mod for generalsZH: it was well planned, stylish and topnotch gameplay. And it has that finished touch you dont see on ANY other mod. This was not amateur work it was a landmark in mod history.

Widowmaker, you guys might have reached a new landmark by making this MapGenerator all in good fun (and solid German ingenouity) but don't forget you are taking a huge dump on all the mapmaker. Custom maps are important for any mod and a good and well-thought out map takes hours, days, weeks to make.

The choice of words "new chapter" maybe was wrong :P You really got people started but I know what you meant.

Oh people please... mahailong008 is not that hard to understand?

By root folder the developers mean the C:\bla-bla\...\Generals Zero Hour\ folder. Unzip it into that folder (or just unzip it into an empty folder then copy/paste contents of that folder into the ...\Generals Zero Hour folder).

By a clean install he means a fresh install of GeneralsZH with no other mods installed.

It sure looks great. But I am sorry to inform you, there is no sound.
I did everything as stated in the instructions for installing.

Awesome work, guys I really appreciate it.

Indeed, there is a dire need for good RTS games. C&C:TW was not a good RTS because the end-tech units were way overpowered, it gets boring.
The Generals universe worked. This is why this mod is so important, I think.

If you are not sure you can release in Q4 its fine. We are patient. But you want to change it to "TBA" so people will not be disappointed.

You never received any actual money in return for this fine, shiny and professional-looking NDA (or your work)did you? :D

Of course its dead!! It was dead before the person announcing it even finished the info :D

They did´nt even have a storyline when they announced the mod. You can always tell its a scam that way. Announcing a mod here is too easy, there should be proves of some work on the mod before they even got to post it on moddb.

"The leader of al-Qaida, Osama bin Laden had sent in U.S. commando group of terrorists bombing aimed at the capture of Black Mesa and the destruction of the United States because it is the only hope is to keep Afghanistan".

Say again, exactly what kind of pills did you take?!

I´d like to know where you got that Leopard 2A4 from. If it comes from the CWC-mod, you better ask them first before releasing anything.

This is the best mod. Been playing it for months, sometimes for 6-7 hours a day, the only RTS I really like and the unit-oriented AI makes me feel I am not wasting my time with massive nuke battles.

You know, we really miss a European faction. I know you stopped modding a long time ago - but is someone picking up on your work to add this side? Did you try to add the EU-side, and would you handle over you knowledge and codeparts to them, if they wanted to continue on this?

How do you get this thing contra007 to work? It´'s just a zip-archieve with no description to install it. I did put the folder into the zero hour game folder, and it installs ok but as soon as the game is launched, it goes back to desktop. Plus, my game is now screwed up...

It is really possible, that there is enough people online in the world to play every multiplayer-mods on moddb? I am afraid not, not even the awesome looking ones like this. CS:S anyone?

This mod just make me sad. Sad, like Eastern Europe :/
Sorry, I know things are really tuff in EE after the fall of the Sov Union, and the type of criminal activities in there are surely hardcore, but there are a lot of open spaces and empty streets, which makes the purpose of driving around a bit boring. Could you please put more buildings and story into this mod? Then I think it would be great, cause you are sure working hard on this one! Good idea putting a youtube promo video on the frontpage, also! :)

Hi tommy211,

No, this MOD is based on the game "Pirates of the Caribbean" by Bethesda Softworks/Akella from 2003.
It was originally made as a precessor of the game "Sea Dogs" and was to be named "Sea Dogs II".
The reason for the duplicant names of the two games, is the fact that Disney in a late stage of the development of this game, threw in capital in order to make this game the official licensed game of the movies, but in the end, DIsney chose to make their own game.

In our opinion, this game has a lot more to offer in the sense of sea combat and storyline than the Disney-game. We have worked on this MOD since 2003 and the development has reached a stage, you could merely call a Total Conversion of the original game.

Thank you very much for this mod!
I mainly spent a lot of time (cant remember how many hours) playing Minerva and Metastasis through, because of the constant need to see, whats around the next corner (a compliment to the well-balanced gameplay). I can only recommend Minerva, and its successor Metastasis, to everybody who can´t get enough of HL2! You wont get stuck in unlogical puzzles and accessible passages that should´nt be accessible :thumbup:

IF I should make any critisism at all to the developers, i would only mention how my average experince with the levels was a bit too easy. But only at some points, in other points they were almost too difficult. On the other hand I consider myself as an experienced gamer with a good aim (as if my humble opinion counts anywhere :rolleyes:)
