And here is what I say: PSP trial version=30+ MB. That doesn't agree with my 56k modem.

[rant mode]Listen, I know the icons and textures aren't great, but they're the best I can do! Even if I had something better than Paint, I still suck at computer graphics! Not even a $700 program wil fix that. That's why I wanted someone else to do them in the first place![/rant mode]

Besides, how will blowing it up make it any better? You still have to drag around it with the mouse! I mean, how the f*ck do you get so close anyways?! That some feature of your rich-guy graphics programs?!

LOL, duke ;D

ok ill tell you how i make my icons.

First i take a screenshot of the unit, then i roughly, using a square selection tool, cut out the unit. Now I zoom in by a lot and use a lassoo or similar tool (its like freehand selection, i think even free programs have it often). Then i copy nad paste it. Now it looks a bit like your icons do but without the background. Now finally I take the eraser and carefully rub out all the browny-red pacthes of ground visible. Finally I copy and paste onto the blank background.

I hope this can help in some way.

Grr...great. If you people hate the icons SOOO much, I'll redo every f*cking one of them! Happy now?! By the way, this will, obviously, substantially delay release. >:(

*sigh* the building icons seemed fine as did many of the vehicle icons, however some of the infantry, such as the Ixian Suboid just had a lot of ground showing in its background. Don't take it personally, its not like im purposely insulting you I'm just trying to indicate ways in which you might improve your mod.

OK...um...I'll try to improve those a little, I suppose...it's just hard...when you zzom in in Paint, it gets so distorted it's like "ACK!", but those early ones could be alittle better...

Hiya! Corrino's Revenge 1.0 will be released either in about an hour or tomorrow, depends on how long to takes to upload, and where I can find to upload it (any suggestions?). It will be about 5-6 MB, dunno why KH2 is so much bigger, though I recon it's 'cause of all the repeated use of the unit/structure images.

Here to celebrate is: "The Top Ten Reasons why CR is Better Than KH2."

10. The icons have that offical-looking blue tone to the grey versions.

9. The textures aren't great, but at least thy're not overpowering!

8. Each subhouse has a new unit.

7. Each house has ONLY one new unit. (A mod is measured by the balance of the new units, not the number. "Quality over Quantity.")

6. A snazzy manual, complete with purdy pictures!

5. All of the new units say things! They aren't all mutes like they are in KH2!

4. The download is a more resonable 5-6 MB, because...

3. ...there are fewer units that all use the same image!

2. There's fewer bugs, even without forty thousand patches! IE, all of the Corrino turrets work, no runaway leeches...

And the nuber one reason CR is better than KH2 is...(Drumroll, please.)

1. It replaces Ordos instead of Atreiedes!

Now I don't need to go over that top 10 list and prove why each one is either wrong or irrelevant, do I?

And notice that KH2 only had 2 patches actually, and we got BOTH quantity and quality with our units.

...and by the way Duke, how come you have TWO CR's in the download section of Dune Editing? If the newer one is an upgrade of the older one, you're just taking up server space.

...rule against doing that, Mr. Moderator?? ::)

But anyways...

There are two CR Beta's in the downloads section cause Gob didn't compound them like I asked him too.*cough*

Anywho, here it is, finally! Corrino's Revenge v1.0!

Ok, have fun! :D

What exactly was it that you wanted Gob to do? I can do it as well. And so can Ghosty.

No no, please do. Enlighten me.

Very well:

10. - Irrelevant.

9. - Nema's textures are better than yours any day.

8. - But then again, each House has less new units than in KH2.

7. - That's a bad thing for CR, especially since all the new units in KH2 are very well balanced. Much better than in the original game, even.

6. - A what complete with what?

5. - What mutes?? You haven't played the latest version of KH2, have you?

4. and 3. (cheap way of getting 2 reasons out of a single one) - I don't know why KH2 is 11 MB, but there are NO two units with the same image! You're just assuming things! Did you even PLAY KH2 at all??

2. - There were only 2 patches for KH2.

And having fewer or no patches is generally a bad thing, because no game or mod can be absolutely perfect from the very start.

1. - Irrelevant. F**K the Atreides and their cheesy Duke! mwah.gif

Oh, and by the way, congrats on persuading me to make KH3. This time we'll include AI scripts as well.
