Old Bonanza Mod?

kaonashi198 · Civilian **Joined**: 27 Jan 2008

Years ago when I was playing C&C RA2YR I used a mod that allowed you to start with all three factions.

Windows has finally fixed the bug that will allow RA2YR to install, but since the fix most of the old mods don't seem to work.

If you know of a newer mod (a mod written post fix) that starts you with all three please let me know.

Thanks

IIRC this isnt a mod, this is called Unholy Alliance . its one of the YR game modes in multiplayer.

Not enabled in skirmish, though.

Yes this mod was available in single player skirmish mode. One scenario I used to run was try a 2-6 position game, pick five other players make them all on the same team, then try to beat them all. Since there were no cheat codes the only advantage I gave myself was to start with all three factions.

Thanks for the comments though.

I can whip a version of Unholy Alliance up for you to use in Skirmish if you want to (note you have to uninstall it again if you want to play over the internet)

At this point anything would help Isn't it funny how you once you get a mod you totally forget how plain the original game is. Thanks in advance!

Here ya go:

Installation instructions:
Put the mpmodesmd.ini and mpunholymd.ini inside your Redalert2YR directory.
(also you should uninstall any mods you currently have installed becaus this one will override the Game Modes in that mod)

Uninstallation instructions:
Remove the mpmodesmd.ini and mpunholymd.ini from your Redalert2YR directory.

(note you have do delete mpmodesmd.ini and mpunholymd.ini inside your Redalert2YR directory if you want to play over the internet)

(NOTE: This unholy alliance is not a exact copy of the one available in Multiplayer)

1. you will only start with one MCV
2. you have to choose the country you want to get that countrys special ability and starting powerplant(after deploying the MCV)
3. You can build more side specific MCVs by having a WarFactory and that sides Sevice Depot/Grinder
4. The Super Weapons require side specific Tech Centers (I did not make this one too easy Laughing

)
5. The AI will/should be the same as without Unholy Alliance (normal game play)
6. I also did not make any changes to stolen technologies

If you want more game modes just send me a PM (Private Message).

If you cant find it can someone else confirm that this little mod works Laughing

Ehmm, djohe, which new game modes do you have on your pc then Wink

Woops I should have never said that, sorry the only game modes that are finnished since my last work on my private mod is actually the Unholy Alliance (I use it for testing). Thats why I released it.

Sorry cant provide you with more game modes (Currently I dont have Redalert2 / Yuri's Revenge installed Laughing

)

I might be able to upload some more in the future but not right now.

I wanted to thank you again djohe for the mod. I've fixed up a very simple map using Final Alert2, with the scenario I was playing.see if you can survive.

I can survive if I turn off super weapons. Now to try with super weapons on.

Just by the look of it in FA2:
One point of attack.
So much ore, no need to exit base
Move base/expand base and you can deffend the only holl in the "wall"
Looks crap Rolling Eyes
