How do I:
1. ... make GDI/NOD/rebel soldiers spawn, respawn, and use AI?
2. ... make the Back To The Future car (simular to how it is in GTA; fly it just like the movie and teleport to somewhere (maybe to enemy base) when you reach 88 mph)?
3. ... make it so you can drive the harvester and still harvest tiberium.
4. ... make it so after you harvest some tiberium, it disappears.
5. ... make tiberium respawn after awhile?
6. ... make civilians spawn, respawn, and use AI?
7. ... capture buildings (like in that Renegade Generals Mod)?
8. ... change GDI into a blue NOD (So I can destroy all Hassan's elite guard)?
9. ... make mech units?
10. ... have multiple buildings of the same type?
11. ... have naval units?
12. ... manualy fly air strikes or have a buildable bomber guy.?13. ... make a yellow submarine, a yellow submarine, a yellow submarine, to shoot enemy ships and dive/submerge?
14. ... give engineers Halo-style armor?
15. ... red Gravity Gun as the "Gizmo's" secondary fire. ("Quick! They got the BTTF car! Destroy it!" Later. "BOOM!" "I thought we killed the BTTF car! DARN YOU GRAVITY GUN!!! OMG I'M DEAD!!!" Even more later. "OMG F1ASCROLL!!! YOU KILLED THE BTTF CAR!!! WTF!!!" Everyone shoots me.) (It would be really cool if you could move the base structures.)
16. ... Base defence beacons. You place 'em and a turrent appears.
17. ... A jeep that passangers can fire from (repairing the tank from the jeep while the driver/gunner uses a machine gun).
Thanks in advance for any and all help. Wouldn't it be fun to be the NOD guy flying a car over a lake to capture the TV station to the east. Wouldn't it be even more fun to be the Hassan guy in the lake shooting him down. And wouldn't it be really fun to be the GDI guy who uses a plane to bomb him.
I'd also like to hear of any other cool ideas anyone comes up with. Espically if it has to do with base construction.
Do me a favor and ignore all my posts before March 2009. March 2009 and after is fair game, though. ;D

"1. ... make GDI/NOD/rebel soldiers spawn, respawn, and use AI?"
Possible
"2. ... make the Back To The Future car (simular to how it is in GTA; fly it just like the movie and teleport to somewhere (maybe to enemy base) when you reach 88 mph)?"
Could be done but you need to know C++
"3. ... make it so you can drive the harvester and still harvest tiberium."
Already happenes
"4. ... make it so after you harvest some tiberium, it disappears."
Can be done
"5. ... make tiberium respawn after awhile?"
Can be done
"6. ... make civilians spawn, respawn, and use AI?"
Look at 1.
"7. ... capture buildings (like in that Renegade Generals Mod)?"
Can be done
"8. ... change GDI into a blue NOD (So I can destroy all Hassan's elite guard)?"
Can be done
"9. ... make mech units?"
Look at Reborn
"10. ... have multiple buildings of the same type?"
Yes, just copy the building controller and set it to the new buildings agg node names
"11. ... have naval units?"
Look at APB
"12. ... manualy fly air strikes or have a buildable bomber guy.?"
Can be done
"13. ... make a yellow submarine, a yellow submarine, a yellow submarine, to shoot enemy ships and dive/submerge?"
Lame rip on The Beatles there but yes, look at 11.
"14. ... give engineers Halo-style armor?"
Yes, remodel the character
"15. ... red Gravity Gun as the "Gizmo's" secondary fire. ("Quick! They got the BTTF car! Destroy it!" Later. "BOOM!" "I thought we killed the BTTF car! DARN YOU GRAVITY GUN!!! OMG I'M DEAD!!!" Even more later. "OMG F1ASCROLL!!! YOU KILLED THE BTTF CAR!!! WTF!!!" Everyone shoots me.) (It would be really cool if you could move the base structures.)"
Can't be done. If you're referring it to be like Gmod this engine doesn't support that. It just doesn't know how to pick things up. And what's a "BTTF" car?
"16. ... Base defence beacons. You place 'em and a turrent appears."
Can be done
"17. ... A jeep that passangers can fire from (repairing the tank from the jeep while the driver/gunner uses a machine gun)."
Already done.
Just pointing out what can and can't be done for you. Most of these things i don't know how to do myself but i have a vauge idea on how they'd work.

Actually this can be done but you would have to be extremely good at scripting (but trust me it is doable).

What's APB? Is that in the 3.14 scripts? (I'm guessing the number)

No, I like the way the engineers look, but I want them their armor to function like halo armor.

This, the BTTF car, and the submarine were the only things I thought were impossible. I thought I saw something about destroyers in one script, though.
Wait, the script editor is in C++, right? I'm a programer as much as a 7th grader can be and know game make and byond. I could learn C++ in maybe a year in a half or two.
Do me a favor and ignore all my posts before March 2009. March 2009 and after is fair game, though. ;D

Another 2 ideas.
18. Chrono harvesters. Like in RA: Yuri's Revenge 2 (or something). They can hold half the ore/tiberium/tiberian/whatever as a Soviet/NOD/Hussan/whatever one, but they teleport back to base when the're full. Course, their may be problems with AI not knowing that they teleported and RenGuard may think that "OMG! YOURE CHEATING!' DIE BOOT BAN FISH!!!" and kill/boot/ban/whatever(!) you, but if you you do enough stuff, something might work. Course, people might think GDI *is* cheating, and in all truth, they sorta are. GDI could easily leave the harvester there and Repair it. Then again, they get half the money. Course, all this assumes that the harvesters have manual driving enabled, which would require barrel/bail/fish(?)/whatever checks to see if you have any stuff. If you didn't, you could just go back and forth a small distance in your base and get $2.1 jigodollars (since BTTF has been mentioned and so has the word chrono, which means time, which means Westwood screwed up naming it the *chrono*harvester).
19. And while we're talking Yuri's Fish: Red Alert 7, how about Yuri stuff.
20. Chicken. Before you say I suffer from sever mental retardation, Westwood thought of it, too. 'Course, it crashes the game. Really, this is just a joke. But I know one day someone will make a totaliy great hack, err... mod off it 'cause that's the way the world works. Someone thinks up the *worst idea ever* (like Sole Survivor) and turns it into the *coolest thing since sliced bread* (as in Renegade).
21. Guard dogs (Both teams). Come on! Who doesn't love 'em! I played the entire Allied campaigan with 'em. (Cookie to whoever figures out how I played with Guard Dogs with the Allies. Hint: I made it so I was the Soviets during those missions.)
22. Spys (Both teams). And The Sole Reason (NOTE TO SELF: Quit Capatilizing Every Word.) the guard dogs are there. To detect spies. Allies (the term, not the team) always see you as "<you> (Spy)", enimies see you as one of them, whick sucks for you if the guy you are sees you. Really sucks for you if they have a flame/mammoth tank. Also, you are shown as yourself if you a guard dog is near you.
And don't forget, Mr. Monk ain't Dale Butterworth. If you get that reference (that's totalily unrealted to CnC, harvesters, and BTTF), I'll give you a cookie.
EDIT: Why's this post have an edit button and the one above it not?

youCAN drive harvesters. Not on the default maps though. Only on a couple of Fanmade maps, and in the APB mod. Google it if you have to. (I'm assuming you've heard of GOOGLE?)

Yes, I've heard of Google. However, the fact I've been doing this stuff for about 3 days (including today) may have something to do with my percived incompetence. I don't know what all the acronyms mean yet. I searched the fourms and it never said "Red Alert: A Path Beyond," only "APB," which is what I searched for. I did, however know that "APC" means "Armored Personel Carrier" and that "RP2" stands for "Roleplay 2". That's because a) Google's used everywhere. b) APC means that in C&C(TD). and c) RP generally stands for Roleplay.
Also remember that i'm TWELVE. Geez. I ain't exactly the Einstien of computers, grammer, spelling,typing fast,RPGs, or FPSes. I'm okay at programing in some languages, making obscure references, and Commander and Conquer (TD, Covert Operations, RA, and Counter Strike. I have Aftermath, but it won't run. I suck at Generals).
If you think I'm incompetent, go talk to someone you've previously dubbed competent. If I've totalily misunderstood what you've said, sorry. I'm not really good with people (I used to enjoy talking to the harvesters like they were puppies. Don't ask.).

...
[b]This list was provided by Westwood Studios & kawolsky[\b]

It would seem that somewhere along the lines they typed "C&C_Chicken." Maybe they ment to type "C&C_Mutant," but they were eating chicken. Anyway, it's in the game just like the Mobile Communications Center in CnC(TD).
Well, I gotta go turn off the TV now. My head will 'eplode in 5,4,3,2,1... (And what do you know. At the exact moment I typed "1," someone changed the chanel from the same 3 second loop to Spongebob. Wow...)

Sole Survivor is modded off Renegade so you could not turn it into Renegade.
|
Sole Survivor is not in any way modded off the Renegade Engine. That's like saying Doom's modded of the Goldeneye engine. Sole Survivor was a real-time strategy/tattics game where you controled 1 unit (minigunner, tank, dinosaur, ect... No, really, dinosaurs. Remember them? Covert Operations.) and told him/her/it/them(?) to attack a unit or move somewhere. Pi9cking up a crate boosts your abilities in some area.
Renegade is a First Person Shooter where you play as one unit (minigunner, rocket launcher, grenader, engineer, ect...) and you shoot things and move and you can drive vechicles. You can also build stuff. Cars only, though. No buildings.
Basicly, either you missed something, I missed something, or we both missed something. I pretty sure you're talking about a Renegade mod called "Sole Survivor" and never heard of the game "Sole Survivor" that I was refering to. Anyway, umm, stuff... Oh, yeah. Basicly I explained what SS is because hardly anyone on the face of the Earth knows what it is. I explained Renegade because I felt like outting off my Cateye 707 Renegade mod for a few extra minutes. Now if you excuse me, I'll be off getting some tea so I can have one more minute not cross-referencing renhelp.net and goldeneye.detstar.com to get weapons information. Sorry if I've annoyed you or anyone else. Why... can't... I... Stop... Typing... ? Hahahaha...
P.S. Good luck with your RenHalo mod. Not that you'd need luck.
P.P.S. or P.S.S. Actually I modified the maps themselves. I made backups, of course.
