Animal Cruelity V 0.02 - Check it
« on: 16 January 2010, 08:11:22 »
Hey guys i've not had my net for about a month now and i don't get to get on much , but in my away time i have created a great creative, fun , but very real simple mod , that takes place in a WW II era and i hope you enjoy it and don't worry its not really cruelity to animals its just they were used as the factions  ;D

SCREENS : http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg218/Shadowfox_203/Animal%20Cruelity/screen12.jpg  

DOWNLOAD : http://www.mediafire.com/?wwjjywmhitz

*Just scroll through my album =)

CONCEPT:This takes place in the WW II era and there are three different factions , the Coalition(rabbits) which is a representation of the americans . The opposition(dogs) which represent the germans. Also the Mother Land(bears) which are the russians. I have not yet decided to add another faction i most likely will and it will proably be the japs , but i also created a new tileset , which is urban conflict and please read the read me.

FACTS: The game is uploaded in a .rar format if you do not know what this is , just goto google and type in winrar simple as that. It also has its own installer quick and easy to use about 53 mbs in size.  Some sounds are not in game , but everything else was made by me no one else.

ISSUES: The A.I will not play with the Mother Land for they are unstable to the A.I's system , you will see why. A.I will not create resource units which isn't a big problem just had to mention it.

LASTLY: Have a great time playing my mod hope you enjoy it as much as i did making it , and there will be plenty more in the coming time . ENJOY!!!!

For (k)ubuntu users go to synaptic (kpackagekit) and search unrar and rar then ark has the ability to unzip rar files. Nice if my internet wasnt so slow and bloated with downloads I'd get your mod

Very impressive for a first version.  :D

I really like the idea behind this mod but I think it needs a little polish to really bring it out. The most ovious thing is that many of the textures need some improvement since they are too plain (sometimes just a single colour).

Unit design is really nice and creative I especially liked the opposition Devourer, Big Wolfen, Welder and Stormbringer, the mother land Harvester and the coalition Stormchaser.

Music is okay at first but quickly becomes repetitve. There are basically no unit sounds other than gunfire when fighting.

Balance is waaay off atm, coalition is best followed by opposition and mother land trails far behind. I like the idea of the harvesting units but the pace of the game becomes excruicatingly slow when playing mother land or opposition. If you're playing against coalition you might as well not bother since they will win every time. Also the A.I is pretty clueless about what to do other than churn out grunts.

There are also a few other small things such as only having one map with the mod, quite a few spelling mistakes and a somewhat bland tileset.

Having made a faction myself I know you must have put ALOT of work into making this. It is certainly the best Glest mod in a quite a while. Whilst it may not be as polished as some single faction mods (Egypt, Woodsmen, Elves), it makes up in sheer quantity of three large factions. I really hope to see an improved version of this in the future  ;)

Also my advice to anyone else who hasn't downloaded this is to do so, you won't regret it!

I don't really have time to try this out right now, but it looks pretty cool so far.  The textures could use substantial improvement, though, both on the units and the ground.  The cobblestone ground texture looks like it's meant to tile, but it doesn't quite fit right.  If you look at it from a distance, there's a "grid" to it.  I look forward to seeing more developments on this mod.

What do you mean?

I'm sure details would be helpful.  ::)

That sounds like the same problem some people had before with another mod. Linux is, apparently, more specific about the filenames. You should compare the filenames with the .xmls. (Model.g3d is not the same as model.g3d, for instance)

Okay, I played it and here are my observations.

Motherland and Opposition have a HUGE disadvantage when it comes to harvesting resources!  The Coalition can produce endless harvesters while the Motherland is restricted to just one, and Opposition can only have one per pile of resources (there's not enough room for two).  I understand that the Coalition should be able to produce a lot of units really quickly (breeding like rabbits), but it's just way too big of an advantage.  Other than that, a lot of the animations could stand to be redone, and a spell check could do wonders.

My overall assessment: not bad at all for an alpha.  I hope you continue to develop and improve upon it, and I look forward to future releases.

By the way, when did you start making this?

i would most likely have to just take the factions and give them to you in a folder
