Hello everyone! I've started to make a Red Alert on Warcraft III. I haven't got so far yet, only created a few buildings and such, but it's going good so far. This game will be based of Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2, and I will try to include every unit from that game. I post a little WIP if you want to try how you build, as you have a controlpanel that you build from in that game. The controlpanel is a hero, and can be accessed anytime. I'll post pictures here when I have worked some more on it.


I'm looking for a skilled terrainer, as I'm really bad at it.


Info about Red Alert 2
Red Alert 2 (RA2) is a RTS game much like all other RTS games. The goal is, like all RTS games, to destroy your opponents bases. In RA you do not have any builders. Instead, you have a controlpanel, from wich you build and create everything you need. Thus, the buildings don't do anything except for unlocking new things in the controlpanel. All buildings require energy, and if you use more energy than your powerplants produce, most things stop, and you have to build more powerplants as fast as you can. It also features so called Superweapons like Nuclear Missiles. A very fun and fastpaced game, in my opinion. Also, the tanks in the last part is the ridicoulusly strong (but ridicoulusly fragile, lowest hp in the game) Prism Tanks.


WIP (I'll add a notice here when i complete something.):
  • Buildings drain money when being contrsucted. You can also see time remaining for your building/unit.
  • You can cancel/sell/repair buildings and units.
  • Created a working money system.
  • Created some Buildings/Units.
  • Started creating superweapons. (I just couldn't wait! :p)

You're also making a Warcraft 3 version of RA2? If you are, I'll stop working on mine.

No, I was just replying about the "Altered melee" I'm not making anything similar to Red Alert. Don't quit the project, that'd be a waste ;)

I was refering it as being revived as a popular map choice, melee maps used to be popular but then a lot of other map types clouded over the genre then they came back again.

Now created a working money system. You harvest raw ore (lumber), and then you refine that ore into pure ore (gold) that can be used. I posted a new version of the map with said money system.

Do not haste this project. Do not downlaod a bounch of models and set them together. Do not make bad systems. Take your time and do not release a beta after 2 days work.
Use alot of time building up good descriptions and well working and orginal systems!

My recommendation.

I will not haste it, no worries. Also, i will probably stick to the WC3 models. And i'll release beta when it's done.
