DUNE 2000 FAQ

[DRFsimmsy]

The DUNE FAQ can be located at http://www.dunefaq.tk/

Content:

So far it contains various solutions to problems, and 2 downloads, Rotorz 93b and a no CD patch. Expect various changes in the future.

Sorry about the popups, when I can afford some hosting that will change.

IMO the colour scheme is also diabolical, does anyone have any nice text/bg combinations? (in hexidecimal).

I might just go with black and white.

It would be nice if this thread was stickied...

DRFsimmsy i found bug in faq

I heard you can play without the CD, how can I do this?

While we don't support pirating software of any kind, it is inconvenient to keep putting the CD in. You can download the no cd patch here (note this means you CAN NOT PLAY MISSIONS after installing this patch, and a reinstall will be needed to play them again)

u can play missions after install no-cd patch,

A: two players are agaist other two players, that type of game require rules nerthh, sometimes someone dont use nerthh, and game is then very hilarous, ..

Q: what is 3vs2 ? 

A: this is strange type of game, only persons who have rotorz connector program can host 5,6 player games. that mean three weak players agaist one strong and agaist one weak..HERE is legend of few players who can create game for 7 and 8players. but not much players know it and may do it.

A: this is unknown thing. this is not known by anyone, DRFsimmsy and ASItrike know alot about this, but  that is keeped in secret.so its possible to transport unit to somewhere (e.g trike  near wind trap,barracks etc)

Q:sometimes when i build refinery and i trace carryal, before he leave screen he have picked up harvester.. WTF?

A: this is another dune bug, this happen when u build refineries in short time, and u dont let first carryal leave before you put second refinery.

[DRFsimmsy]

The only thing I'm going to add from that is the stuff about building on white sand. The rest of it is a load of crap you made up...

[AMIgaBot]

ur faq is not compilled, not much points about how to use big armies, how to attack opponent etc.

[gunner154]

It's a kinda technical support FAQ... like troubleshooting. It also focuses more on the Rotorz thingy. Mostly online stuff. 2v1. 3v2 are really pointless in the FAQ... but the no engy harvy hunting rush etc. thing would be useful, as well as the advanced crate game, etc.

How about a roleplay? Like using Dune2000 to roleplay characters? For example, gunner154 is a Harkonnen Light Infantry and DRFsimmsy is a harkonnen engineer. We're good friends and like to hang out at the barracks at night instead of going on night duty. Then one day a group of fremen ambush the base and we're the only ones awake...

You know? Actually, someone REALLY has to recommend this for both Dune2000 and Emperor. I love it on warcraft 3 and I know it's gonna rock on Dune2000 and Emperor since resources are unlimited...
