AMIgaBot Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 they disassebled game into frst parts, this means they extracted it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WXT Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 How, please tell how. To do that ... "disassebled the game" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMIgaBot Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 alot of sofware is needed, visual basic c++ , ms dev, TASM , delphi 7 enterprise. on each of these progrems people used to extract parts of dune source code. but as dune was static and cannot do much effort, they only added few buldings and units - thats all. but ever that caused miscelenous problems and they released patch as unfinished ... later project was scrapped as was completily useless, all was because we cannot find software what was used for coding a .bin files!

WXT Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Hum, do you have the "extract" Dune 2000 or I have to do that? I am aweare of c++ but for the rest I am not :( ...But that can be changed ... For the BIN files it is posible Tibed to know for coding them.I don't know Tibed is it still alive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMIgaBot Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 tibed can only edit few compartments of bin files. as i know that one of bin files controls amount of crates,starting units, and amount of worms... i have found values for crates and made from one crate to over 50 crates on map. but this relleased starport bug as units cost went negative. and starport was able to purchase units only once, and went out of action untill restart of mission..there are modifications around , members of some clans know modification to get more than 10 units in gameask DRFsimmsy,DLAfalcon FoXrotorz Foxchica Fox4play as they know about them more..

WXT Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Then the bin files have differently(variety) information in them ? Do you know with what program they can be opened ? (The bin files)As for the crates (do you mean freemen crates) it has to be some connection or limit with the starport or something ...To the "modification" for more than 10 units, are you say that in can be increased the number of starting (guarding) units. I don't see any meaning in that ...I see meaning to start with more enemy's, in the game maximum is 4-5 houses. I like to extend it to 8-10 number of starting houses. And even in the game to arrive new houses like reinforce ...But that is probably not possible now.For now I want to gather as much as more - possible info...If you have any info or know where I can find it please say it :). I will be very grateful to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMIgaBot Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 dune2000has 3 housesatreides ordos harkonnenand subhousesordos have smugglers and mercenariesharkonnen have emperoratreides have fremen and you cannot have more than 7 players in game as there is only 7 available colors for each player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WXT Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 You didn't understand me fully right. For the info and DATA I want everything form the people who created the patch.That means: everything - extracted from Dune 2000, how they do it and all info for how adding new units and everything they add to the game ... It will be very good if it has an explanation to the added things to the game. How they add them and all of it ...I will do a new patch and try to eliminate all errors that appear. I probably only add units and buildings and a few other tings.For the houses I was telling for the atreides ordos harkonnen in game but more like 3 "AT", 3 "OR" and 3 "Hark" or different order (won't meaning), for the colors I will do more if I can. You said it has 7 colors it will be very good that it can be increased to 15-20 colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMIgaBot Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 firstto add new unt or bulding, you need make tga grapchic of your new unit. and copy of same unit in bmp file1. done unit convert to tga and put in correct folder c:westwooddune2000dataUI_GFX 2. now you must add image of your unit in dune2000 image conventer, to data.r8 file. (problem is that there is no way to open r16 files as they contain more important data, we couldnt decode these files)3. another problem is that unit must be implemented into dune2000 AI scripting. to make computer use that unit4. about colors for players, there is no way to add more colors, dune2000 is too old for these heavy changes.about houses dune2000 had 4 houses to play , atreides, ordos,harkonnen and .....emperorspecially there were three more missions to play built in into campagin. but they CANNOT be played as these missions were special ones. there was missions for ordos atreides and harkonnen.and problem is that as westwood studios FORGOT put some changes to code as emperor WAS ALLY OF HARKONNEN , but because of their lazy hands, they wrecked that up. and needed to delete the house emperor from houses what can be played by normal gamer ^_^ the emperor house was good one, and for emperor was not 9 missions but 12. they were completily different than missions for ordos harkonnen atreides, there were missions to escort an group of friendly units, defending two friendly bases and wait for reinforcements from protected allies. defending from worm squadrons etc. this was done before dune2000 was released to public, as problems were found they quicky deleted special effects from game wrecking most of standard dune missions!! dune2000 was released very poorly, no standard map editor, no ability to generate random maps, no ability to play harkonnen with emperor as allies.. in fact dune2000 should be released at year 2000 not 1998 as there was too much screwed stuff.. patches done good job but not recovered what was taken out before release :(about patch , my friends have notthing remainin g from it, all stuff were deleted short after scrapping project, this mean that dune2000 1.07 patch was built and released but now it does not exits, if you could ask year ago or half.. then chances were large to build new project.. but ur tooo late :(about actual time, i have problems playing dune2000 as i have super comp and game runs with lightspeed i have 3,69ghz pentium 4 1gb ram ati radeon x1300 256mb 160gb hdd windows xp proffesional Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WXT Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 "to add new unit or building, you need make tga graphic of your new unit. and copy of same unit in bmp file"What program I need to make tga graphic to the new unit ? I think I will use for one new unit to old from the game, haw I can do that ? To mix their graphics ..."and copy of some unit in bmp file" What that means, to replease may graphic with the old (of one unit)???Haw I can get some BMP files of the units in Dune 2000 (tga graphic ) ?Haw I can get some image of unit from Dune 2000 from data.r8 files.Tell what program for what I need ...For the problem of r16 files, I have to search for a program that can open them .For AI will be later .For the problem you have it is probably the compatibility of the game or som driver options (graphics settings)...
