The new CnCNet functions

Get TI into the stuff the latest DTA has - pre-set locations, AI alliances, etc.

DTA is good with those things, but TI would be better. Those amazing maps with 4v4 guaranteed with hard AI? WIN!

Whats the staff's plans?

Yup, TI uses the same launcher as DTA so it will also feature the new options.

As far as I know, Aro mentioned that the next public beta wouldn't be released until this feature is included.

So, around late March / early April the Launcher will get a large update including:
- Support for custom maps(including CnCNet map database)
- Skirmish settings will be saved
- Passworded games will be supported online
- The Launcher window will be integrated into the Main Menu
- Support for launching campaigns and loading games directly
- New CnCNet networking code etc. for improved stability

As DTA is my main mod and the Launcher's primary dev platform, it will get the improvements immediately next spring. TI will get them fairly shortly afterwards, although it's up to Aro when he will make the improvements public.

FYI, as a staff member of both mods I can't really respect such "this is better than the other mod" comments. But it's a valid opinion I guess #Tongue
