MrFlibble Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 We surely gotta contact the developer, then. Maybe send him a PM, or anything? There's a forum on his old workpad site, but I don't know if he checks it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 If only all these Dune II clone makers could just combine their work and their efforts... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFlibble Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Although this idea has some merit, I think it's still better to have the diversity when each developer tries to incorporate their own, unique ideas in the project. For example, the innovations made by drackbolt, not to mention the unusual unit control system, make his version of "Dune" very different from D2TM or Dune Legacy. On the other hand, sharing experience among Dune "clone" makers is good. I think Stefan consulted drackbolt on some issues when the latter was developing his project.Since Dune II is the "mother of all RTS", it is interesting to see how innovations grow from it when it comes to the "clones" (I prefer the term "remake" though).

Dunenewt Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 But surely if they all combined together, there would be a higher quality finished product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFlibble Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Not necessarily. Anyway, we've strayed too far off-topic. Perhaps this part of the conversation should be done into a separate thread, maybe in the Dune Editing? Something to summarize information about Dune clones, complete with links and anything...EDIT: BTW, there appears to be some cross-posting here. Maybe merge both threads into one? Preferably in the Dune Editing section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drackbolt Posted March 11, 2009 Author Share Posted March 11, 2009 Hi everybody. :DSorry I haven't been around. I have been working on the next version of Dune 2: TSHA though. I'll try to start visiting here again, since people did actually give some good feedback and demonstrate positive interest. Take care everybody.Jessehttp://drackbolt.blogspot.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
