How to add new units


Luminar

Recommended Posts

all I know:

- all units/buildings must be defined in .DAT file

- the .DAT file have additional informations about them (stealth [stealth raider],used sprites[this is for unit behaviour],etc.....)

- you must make sprites (not really needed [sardaukar])

- you must add new lines to the .BIN files

- add new sounds ingame if you want (it need .DAT modding too)

- you can't add new units with tibed (unit behaviour)

//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//---//

we only need some pro reverse engineerers (MVI) to mod .DAT file

adding unit is possible..

compare side by side version 1.03 &1.06 files and updates and find out the differences..

maybe..

just maybe..

i'm trying to decipher dune2000.dat file now i've put it on hold due to exams..

if i find i'll post stuff..

if someone else finds please do make it public..

what luminar did here is a good start..

find how a unit is written in dune..

where are the roots??

if someone could build a tree for a general object in game maybe we might solve the add new unit problem..

lets go systematically..

People lose interested in mods that authors keep promising a "soon release" which doest happen. I myself kinda lost interest in it tbh.

im really sorry about that..

but i feel lazy to recolour the tilesets..

also i get less time..

i promise itll be done within five months..

atleast the demo will be out..

actually the game is over and only a few bugtests remain..

once they are over a demo will be released..

oh and i have a major problem with hi res patch..

so itll be sometime till i fix it properly..

im in touch with d2k sardaukar on it..

feda i will release a demo in the next month..

dont loose interest my friend..
