vitk Posted March 1, 2002 Posted March 1, 2002 ;Dhttp://amonit.boom.ru/if you dont understand russian, use altavista.com to translate.I'm translating now game to english. It will take me about week.
Gobalopper Posted March 1, 2002 Posted March 1, 2002 Is this a completely new game/engine or just Dune II edited with different missions?
vitk Posted March 2, 2002 Author Posted March 2, 2002 It is complete new game, written in Delphi for Win32, with original music, gfx and sounds. Just look.
vitk Posted March 2, 2002 Author Posted March 2, 2002 try this - ftp://ftp.ware.ru/win/DUNE3_0.RARand dont forget to get lastest update from site (if you use NVIDIA chip based card)The fist word in menu is 'play'. Then select house and enjoy. This game is kick Arakis ass at all.It is not licence clear for now (it uses graphics and music from original game dune 2) but it will be soon.
Gobalopper Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 Doesn't work for me on an ATI card. Graphics are garbled and you can't make out anything, just a blob of green and black that flashes.
vitk Posted March 3, 2002 Author Posted March 3, 2002 Are you sure download a new .exe fromhttp://amonit.boom.ru/main/DUNE3UP3.RAR????it fix many errors, including modern videocards fix.Anyway I'll annonce it completly when translation done.

Gobalopper Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 Yep that works, although its hard to play in Russian. :)How are you translating it? Did you get the source code?
Tormented Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 it's only heard to play if you don't know russian  ;Dfortunetly I do, but the game is very annoying withthe russian voices. and there is alot of bugs in network game.
XTF Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 Does anybody know a (working) way to contact the author?It's very interesting, although my harvesters got stuck in the first mission of Harkonnen.
Emperor Harkonnen Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 Is it a Dune game in russian cooool!!!I love that language! :)
Nefud Posted March 5, 2002 Posted March 5, 2002 This game is cooooool!!!!! :DWhen I started it I couldn't believe to my eyes!!! :OAnd what's more I can read Russian letters, but I can only understand a few words, and it's funny to see Xapbectep instead of Harvester!!!! :DI can only say, that this game ROCKS!!!Please translate it fast, because I want to play with it!!!
vitk Posted March 6, 2002 Author Posted March 6, 2002 Hello,Author said that he does not want to make a english version, coz "Ted Morris, Director, Online Services." warn it that "any product that is derived from one of our products cannot be legally distributed, either for free or for profit. Â We must take this stance in order to preserve our intellectual rights."What can you all say about this? How author can awoyd DMCA law? Please answer, if you want Dune 3 in english.
Gobalopper Posted March 6, 2002 Posted March 6, 2002 Well there has been English versions of Dune II, similar to this but never really completed, and Westwood hasn't done anything. If he released it in Russian already whats the difference in making it English? The game is still the same just the language has changed that shouldn't make any difference.Also he wrote his own engine didn't he?
nemafakei Posted March 7, 2002 Posted March 7, 2002 I can read, russian, but I don't know  much vocab. Oh, well, shouldn't be too hard. CTO|
Timenn Posted March 7, 2002 Posted March 7, 2002 It's a compressed file. You need winrar to extract it...
nampigai Posted March 9, 2002 Posted March 9, 2002 you just need rar you can unpack it with winzip winace or what ever you are useing. just add rar to your winxxx, and you should be able to find rar by searching on any engine on the web. I found it with altavista.
Emperor Harkonnen Posted March 10, 2002 Posted March 10, 2002 I didn't manage to download the file that took 1,5 mb, I needed some kind of password. What is wrong?
el_d00d Posted March 14, 2002 Posted March 14, 2002 it looks fun, but it's annoying that it's in russian :) Also nice to know that they made it in Delphi, since I'm learning that language :)
Caid Ivik Posted March 21, 2002 Posted March 21, 2002 ANNOYING?????? YOU MEAN, THAT THIS BEAUTIFUL ADORABLE LANGUAGE IS ANNOYING??? YOU MAY KNOW THAT LANGUAGE OF MUAD'DIB, LETO II. AND MANY MORE IS MADE FROM IT*!!!!!!!! I THINK YOU WANT TO FEEL WRATH OF SLAVONIC SUPERIORITY!!!!!!*- it's anglo-slavonic
Caid Ivik Posted March 21, 2002 Posted March 21, 2002 What is problem on words like "izgotovlenja zaversena" or "nas charvester pozedajet" or "ku njem" ? We Slovaks are learning this beautiful language. And we'll proud of it. Why all games must be in english? English is too primitive.
Gobalopper Posted March 21, 2002 Posted March 21, 2002 The problem is this board is English. Your language may be great but if no one else here knows it then there isn't any point in using it. And stop posting offtopic replies!
