TeamWolf Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Hello, my name is -FW-Wolf. I am leader with my friend cnc95fan of a new Dune game called Battle for Dune made on the W3D Engine, we started out as a mod for C&C Renegade and then got standalone clearance. We aim to bring the loved RTS Emporer: Battle for Dune to your feet so you can feel and relive those great Dune games and times. We are currently working towards a Btea client. Please give us click at www.battlefordune.co.uk or check out our moddb page at http://www.moddb.com/games/10054/battle-for-dune .Thanks, -FW-Wolf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunenewt Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 This looks really good! Can you play as Ordos, Atreides or Harkonnen? Or just two of the sides? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamWolf Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 You can play as all three sides. We have all buildings done now and are moving onto our tanks, infantry, weapons and maps.Keep up to date over at www.fwclan.co.uk/battleforduneor our Moddb page at http://www.moddb.com/games/10054/battle-for-dune 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemafakei Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Wow!They actually look like RL toys... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D2k Sardaukar Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Those buildings look nice.Keep up the great work! By the way, in what for (3D) program's are you creating/texturing the buildings and units? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamWolf Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 We use 3ds Max and gmax with renx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnc95fan Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 We've been developing some special scripts and eye-candy for the Renegade engine to give the best possible outcome of a FPS version of E:BFD. (This game will be standalone from the Renegade engine, meaning you will not have to own a copy of C&C:Renegade to play). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanguard3000 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Wow!They actually look like RL toys...That's exactly what went through my mind as well. The textures are very smooth, yet detailed.Out of curiosity: Do you have any plans to add a ridable worm? And if so, how the heck are you going to do that?

TeamWolf Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 At this current time, no. We haven't disscused this but it doesn't seem possible atm. But we shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnc95fan Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Yes, they do look cool ^^. All thanks to our slave modeler Bullet.Designer, who also did the skins. He has made a lot of other buildings, including the whole of the Atrides base, untextured presently. We are constantly debating about issues over the sandworm, and at the present moment, due to lack of features in the Renegade engine, you will not be able to hope on a sandworm, (without some real difficult ASM hacking anyway). So keep up-to-date at www.fwclan.co.uk/battlefordune/index.php as our main domain (www.battlefordune.co.uk) is offline. A more interactive area would be our ModDb page, http://www.moddb.com/games/10054/battle-for-dune. there is usually someone always on our forums to answer your questions http://www.fwclan.co.uk/battlefordune/forums/index.php?

Dunenewt Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 This is looking better and bettter! So we wont need any other game to play this, it is a standalone download? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnc95fan Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Indeed, it will be 100% standalone. Best played with a computer, mouse and keyboard. Single Player and multiplayer. There will probably be a choice in downloads of the versions:Single PlayerMulti PlayerBothThis saves people having to download/install unwanted programs.

Vanguard3000 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Wait... single player? Is there going to be an SP campaign mode, like Renegade's, or will it just be like the 'practice' C&C mode? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnc95fan Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 More then likly a large campaign mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanguard3000 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 As someone who much prefers games with a storyline over multiplayer, I salute you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamWolf Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 We will try our best to give you the E:BFD feel in our single player missions, but also try to keep that even more in our mulitplayer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
