January 2014 mod roundup!

Banshee · Last edited by Banshee on Fri Jan 31, 2014 2:12 pm; edited 1 time in total

Hello everyone! Sorry for the silence in the news. I've spent most of my time in this month working on VXLSE III and also fixing bugs from OS SHP Builder and recoding the Project Perfect Mod Website. The next VXLSE III build might take a while, since I'm stuck with some stuff related to the controller from its MVC model that was originally mentioned in this post. OS SHP Builder 3.38 Beta 6 has been released 10 days ago. These betas were fixing bugs that people were reporting in this forum. The news about PPM being recoded will be posted later, although that task has been finished or at least the new site is online already.

Anyway, there are some interesting news about several mods we host and some that we don't... that needs to be shared here. So, let's get straight to the point from now on, shall we?

Tiberian Sun Mods:

-> Twisted Insurrection's upcoming Public Beta 5 will be featured for one hour at the next broadcast from Hector Doomhammer that should happen in february 2nd, 2014 around 15:00 GMT.

Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge:

-> YR: Attacque Supérior internal alpha, Mental Omega 3.0 and Red-Resurrection 2.0 will also be featured in the same broadcast from Hector Doomhammer. Check the announcement at Red-Resurrection's website for details on which time which mod will be played.

-> Talking about Mental Omega, there is a preview of the Heaven & Hell mission Beta Revision 2 for MO3.0. The mission has been totally reworked with Tanya instead of SEALs. Check the video for more information.

-> Colony Wars has received screenshots from several units and buildings. The latest ones were the Strategy Center, Cyborg Trooper, Recon Gun, Scarab APC, among others. The picture below shows the Scarab APC that belongs to the Syndicate faction (Yuri):

-> Tiberian Sun: Rewire has a promotional picture that shows many of the buildings that were created for the mod. Click in the picture for more information:

OpenRA:

-> Tiberian Dawn Xtended has recently switched engines to OpenRA, as seen in the picture below:

Renegade:

-> Tiberium Crystal War is a standalone total conversion that bring the C&C3 universe to Renegade. They've released a video that shows Pitbull, Juggernaught, Avatar and few other units in action:

Generals:

-> Rise of the Reds's ModDB profile has received an update called Ride of the Valkyries, featuring the European Venom Combat Armor, Exo Skeleton and much more.

And that's it for now.

I should totally drop the YR prefix from the mod's name. It's pretty much a remnant of how it started in the version I call 'Andante ' now...

Maybe one day I throw up that variant somewhere. But that one sucked too much.

Interesting to see that OpenRA screenshot of a draft project I did not know about. We currently have two active OpenRA mod projects outside the main source code tree that actually published something playable. I advertised them with videos at https://plus.google.com/100332364931123881367/posts

The actual scarab apc pic is further down being discussed in its topic. It's the one on the right side. I should have posted some other units I had already finished but oh well. I'll save them for this months updates.
