C&C Tiberian Dawn Redux v1.5.3 Release Trailer - ModDB
Thanks to the development of C&C Red Alert Redux, Tiberian Dawn Redux received some much-needed code and AI improvements, resulting in some noticeable gameplay/balancing improvements. The mod has also been going through a slow visual overhaul over the past few years, eliminating a lot of the experimental stuff from the "crazy graphics" era from '09-'18, along with finally overhauling the dated UI that's been in use since 2009. The mod also benefited from the implementation of ReShade, phasing out the old ENB Shaders, which has helped a great deal. This will give the mod a fresh new look with improved performance!
NEW AI AND MISSIONS:
This version of the mod includes an improved and optimized AI that uses more interesting tactics, and even base creeps now. In addition, the SPEC-OPS missions from the N64 port of the original C&C are now implemented in the mod. As with previous work done with the mission making process, a lot of detail goes into designing and scripting the maps to be as accurate as possible but also including a few twists to improve upon the original. (including a better AI) There are two missions for both GDI and Nod.
NEW USER INTERFACE:
The mod has undergone a visual overhaul and has finally updated the UI that's been in use since 2009. This will give the mod a fresh new look, as seen below.
RESHADE IMPLEMENTATION:
I am pleased to announce C&C Tiberian Dawn Redux has now been upgraded with ReShade. This phases out the old ENB Shader used since 2009, which was known by many to be a performance hog and had issues with the mission briefing videos. Many opted to have it disabled as a result. This includes a boost to visual clarity, enhanced DOF fog/shadows, and also integrates Anti-Aliasing.
SPECIAL NOTE: Neither one of the shader systems is enabled with the GenLauncher release of the mod by request of the developer, as the files conflicted with GenTool's integration.
