Thanks Last edited by wartank on Wed Dec 07, 2016 2:27 pm; edited 1 time in total QUICK_EDIT
well what i want is to create a patch type mod and every one will accept it easily.How many people created how many mods but who play them?No one is ready to leave original game.If i will have to choose between a mod took 20 years to made & original game, my simple answer will be Original game.
I am playing this game on Gameranger server from 2008 and i am very good in playing but all those people are playing 1.006.What i want is acceptable changes in this game with out 'EFFECTING ORIGINAL GAME' .Its so easy to convince people to play this new patch if its not a 100% mod.
I know Auto SS is from xwis and they already made it.They have good patch of their own with many changes but that is still not able to convince people to play this game all the time.I want to make this game too much interesting and fun so every one will play it.It will increase Activity on Gameranger & i will also get more players to play
Ok what i suggest for new patch is simple in 3 Steps.
1-Maps Related:
1.We have to add at least 300 maps and we have 110 maps already including Xwis maps.These maps should includes maps for all players & this patch is for Gameranger and we need to add many maps with too much gems on them.There are 45% players who play only this type of maps with name of afg or rekool.
2.Its important to add more fun in this game and to do that we need many map mods.People will show their interest bcz they will not have to play same old game every day.I will mention few example of map Mods below
a)a Map mod where we have to defend our base & we cant build more bases.If we lose base, we lose game.
b)another mod where we will have to capture 1 oil derrick in center & it cant b destroy by anything.We cant build around it.If we capture it then we will get good money every few minutes & its easy to beat enemies.
I am not sure of its possible to make this type of map mods but i have hundreds of more ideas.
3.I want to arrange all maps in different categories like '2 players maps', '3 players maps', and more. It will b easy for all to choose maps easily.I will also like to see all map mods available offline also.
2-New buildings:
I want to make this game to 2nd generation and 3rd generation level.
2G Level means we will see a new battle lab after we will build 1st one.It will be expansive but after building it , we can produce few of selected units with double power but only 60% more price.
3G Level means we will see a 3rd battle lab after building 2nd one,and we will be able to build selective units with triple power and only more 60% price.
As you can see this is not a hard work to do and it will not effect original game & people will love it and show their more interest in game specially on big maps with too much money.
After Building 2nd Lab we can build selective building with double and then 3G triple power.Power means those buildings will not b able to destroy easily.
I have more ideas of building with out effecting original game.
3-BUg Fixing and Small changes:
I know about many bugs in game but its easy to look on 1.007 patched and their way of fixing bugs.I want to fix all bugs and everything which is cause of game lagg or auto crash sometime.
I want many small changes which we can discuss later.
Dear all,
This is what i want to make a new patch with out effecting original game and make it fun for all.I hope someone will show his interest to help me make this type of patch for Gameranger server.Its up to me how i will convince people to play it which is not hard for me.
I will wait for answer................

I think the biggest hurdle here is he wants new game modes, new maps, new tech tree, BUT doesn't want it to be a mod. I see that as impossible/contradictory, and no one would accept the half-assed result anyway.

You don't want a mod but you just described one.
Vanilla RA2 is already bat shit boring and imbalanced, people mod this game to add more variety and take the engine to its limits. A polished mod is much more balanced and fun than vanilla. QUICK_EDIT
Well my beef with the game was always tactics, it seemed like they rushed the game out without enough unit variation between houses. Aside from a few overpowered units, the differences were mostly irrelevant, and that meant people would always pick those few houses. This is means people end up playing similarly.
I loved Dune2, I enjoyed C&C1, loved RA1, couldn't get into Dune2000 or TS for some reason, then got hooked on RA2, but none of the successors ever came close to the distinct house differences of Dune2. In Dune2 you had too few units like all the other games, but it still felt more dynamic, even more so than RA2, and I don't see how RA2 can be fixed without therefore adding more units and revamping the balance with them.... and I won't even mention how terrible the city maps are

Thanks for nice information.
You will not see me posting here if i know how to do it myself.I am here asking for help and i think its not a big task for someone who have good knowledge of editing this game.All i am asking is help of 1 man and we can finish it with in 15 days or even less. QUICK_EDIT
