NOD vs GDI war

[Seal89999]

This is an overall war...not just the AI.....

Be quiet.... :)

EVA sounds like a chic on drugs.....way too machine like...EVA is so dumb...

On that site it said that the timeline was as follows: the Allies win in Red Alert, then tiberium drops on Earth and the original C&C story follows.

I always thought though that the "real" story was that the Soviets won RA, partly because of their ending scene (Kane assuming control of the Soviet Union) and because in the beginning of the C&C story Europe is in the hands of Nod.

Que?

That, and including the fact that Kane got killed after the Allies Mission where you had to save Tanya, in the cutscene, she kills Kane...

[Anathema]

...that was Kane? I must have forgotten about that. In that case it would make even less sense that the Allies won.

[Procyon]

Its not Kane, is a bald man without beard. :P

If you follow Allies end, you get RA2

If you follow soviet end, you get TD[attachment archived by Gobalopper]

There's 2 separate storylines now... schematically seen it's like this

                    ----------- C&C ------ Tiberian Sun

              -------

        -------

Red Alert

        -------

              -------

                    ------------ Red Alert 2

Yeah, in the Allied final mission cutscene, we see Kane bury Stalin under a pile of rubble. Nod could have risen both ways, and it makes more sense with the Tiberian Dawn storyline following after an Allied victory; Europe is largely un-Soviet, I thought?

PS: Is there any way to extract the movies from the game?

The "good guy"'s storyline in the previous game is always followed up in the current one. I think the Red Alert 2 and Tiberian Sun storylines were derived from Red Alert 1 but lead into different scenarios.

Woohoo, completed both the GDI and NOD campaigns.

That wasn't Kane either, it was Stavros, wanting revenge for his family being killed/hometown destroyed in the Soviet invasion of Greece.

Use XCC AV Player and/or XCC Mixer, available at http://xccu.sourceforge.net/utilities/

The Red Alert 2 "storyline" is completely separate from the RA-->TD-->TS-->FS-->TT? storyline.

Then again, Kane never dies, so its quite possible he could have been "killed" -- but it would have been only the first time he was killed. I'm sure he would go on to die again in the Temple of Nod at Sarajevo, and again at Cairo.

Also, thanks for the viewers; I appreciate them!

Hassan at the start of the NOD campaign: "One death, is not enough for Anton Slavik. For attempting to give our most vital secrets to our enemy, the GDI spy deserves to die a thousand times."

Gen. Solomon at the end of mission 1: "Hassan, if he gains more power, you will become useless to us, and useless things have a way of disappearing"

Hey so what happens at the end of Firestorm, how come it seems like GDI and NOD simply ended their battle?

[Wolf]

Well, of the two groups, I'd say GDI is the more forgiving/adaptable;

[Khan]

You have to patch it, then set it to windows 95 compatibility mode.

[Wolf]

Yup, that worked well. Thank you.

[Caid Ivik]

I have only the Win95 version. Originally bought I mean, of course I know also the DOS one ;D  Engine made for Red Alert, as could be seen.

[lowzeewee]

How do you bring campaign-only songs like 'NOD Crush' into skirmish?

[Dunenewt]

On what game?

[lowzeewee]

Edit: Woohoo, nice XCC mixer by Olaf Van Der Spek

Gonna worship Kane all day all night now. :)

[Caid Ivik]

Extract and edit theme.ini, you have it in tibsun.mix section local.mix. There you can add even custom music, if you have a WAV-AUD convertor.

Cool picture of the Banshee, but alas, it sucks so much in the game.

You need too many of them to take out a unit.

It's good in groups when attacking incoming enemies, since they have poor anti-air.

[Caid Ivik]

I'm working on a Banshee for Freelancer, model is nearly done, but can you help me someone with texture?

[Cyborg]

Can't you just draw something in Paint and use Unwrap UVW?

Works very fine. If you know anything about Photoshop, it's a piece of cake.

[Necroticon]

Nice banshee model, Caid. Needs Nod symbols, though.

[Cyborg]

He needs the air intakes on the top sides, though.

[Wolf]

That's an awesome model, Caid. I've got Freelancer, and I'd have to see that thing in action, sometime.
