Luminar Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 with some work it could be much betterBut some players only like the real old games....openra is a very good game, but too modern for some gamers :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luminar Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 With the database dump? There is nothing you can do really other than use it for research. It is a dump from the IDA Pro HexRays decompiler that produced pseudo C formatted code.How did you re-create the dat file with the sub-houses fix?

shai Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 But some players only like the real old games....openra is a very good game, but too modern for some gamers :)How is it too modern? The gameplay mechanics are just like Dune 2 and they have the same graphics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dune2k would still be a better idea, if it could be more moddable. So far OpenD2k is good, but can't match d2k, not even by a half. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether by submitting changes to the main repo or creating a fork, Open D2K has much more potential then the original game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuclear_harvester Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 but orginal game can be challenging if we just find out what holds it together. coding isnt that hard knowing dat file structure might be handy.how units are stored in dat file, do they have fixed id or its random?if is it fixed numbers and they are growing/decreasing with evry unit will adding new line work?there must be some shortcut for this 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a task to be taken lightly, especially since we barely know how the game works in the first place. Open d2k has a significant advantage in this regard as we have access to the source code, which allows us the make any changes and tweaks we want. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

athanasios Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Unless Dune2k becomes open source, the future belongs to OpenRA. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruntlord6 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Ok, and who's gonna tweak and make desired changes to the Open D2k engine? any programmer or the original developers, as they have based on my last few requests. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
