Email me for a description of the map and to apply to be a tester. Please make the subject of the email "TotC Beta Test". Thanx. And for those of you who want screenies here's some:

sadly it is a MOD. I made quite a few changes to the game to balance the game and added a few things. I dont know how to do those and not have it packaged in a MOD, if it was possible I would do it if someone could show me how.

It's a mod or a modification, not a MOD.

Really... Well I guess it must have changed while I was gone. I got flamed real bad in other forums for using it lower case. And I guess people still think me lowly as Ive only got 1 response. Ive also been working on setting up a FDS on a T1 to host the mod for the beta test. And here are a few more screen shots:

What are the changes you have made for balance?

Because I bet I could make it work Razz

Well only a few are mentioned (or remembered) in the readme and not all of them are implemented yet. Mostly so that I dont have to deal with balancing everything at once. Well here's the Readme excerpt description

The map is set in a prison compound. There are no bases as this is a DM/CR style map. The GDI and Nod
areas are located at opposite ends of the compound in their own little prison blocks. There is a central
courtyard which function is still to be decided. Mainly right now to provide some cover. Each base is
locked with 2 keycard. Each player automatically spawns with the keycards for their base. The first keycard for each team is located somewhere on the map. The keycards are used to access certain parts of your base ad you need the first card of your enemy to even enter their base. There are keycard spawners
inside each base for that base but are protected by locked gates so to get at them you have to sneak
behind someone with the cards. And if you manage to collect all 4 security cards inside each base is an
area which holds armor and health powerups. Also each base has a garage which houses spawners for their
vehicles. GDI has the sedan, and Nod has the Pickup Truck. The Pickup truck is fater than the Sedan but
can only hold 2 people and has 100 health. The Sedan can carry 4 people and has 150 health and has a
higher traction rating but is slower than the Pickup Truck. Also in this mod the Stealth Soldier has
been stripped of weapons save a mine and a scaled down pistol but they remain undetectable closer up
than in normal MP. GDI also has a respective Stealth Soldier called the Infiltrator. Also each base has
6 prison cells for captured enemy soldiers. These cells have a heal kit in each of them so that prisoner
will have around half health.


-----------
I havent gotten around to it but to even out the stealth Ive decided to add a faint beeping noise to them so you know they are around even if you cant see them. Also adding a decloak powerup to the powerup room that is unavoidable so we dont have uber stealths...

Its not too bad, but you will want to change the size of your textures. The tiles look about 8 feet wide, and they should be about 1-2 feet.

Those who flamed you because you said "mod" in lower case instead of caps are idiots. "Mod" is not an acronymn, it is only short for "modification".

(I've seen people on other forums refer to the word "mod" to be short for a game "moderation" instead of a game "modification". )

Add in some trees from the tile presets. Also, you can temp almost anything in commando and still have it be a .mix.

Trees would just make the map look more finished...

Although you should experiment with the map to see if too many trees get in the way of, say, driving...

It's all in the balance...


"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt (1918)

"The danger to political dissent is acute where the Government attempts to act under so vague a concept as the power to protect "domestic security." Given the difficulty of defining the domestic security interest, the danger of abuse in acting to protect that interest becomes apparent. --U.S. Supreme Court decision (407 U.S. 297 (1972)

Okay Im going to expand the level by adding a few defense items. And modify a few settings. I am going to include a few controllable turrets for each side and make the rocket soldier's missiles do half damage but double their speed and range and also make them homing. Also Im reducing thier health and speed.
