Eets Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 It'll be semi-SC like. You should go buy/rent AoK or AoE for the best picture of the scenario editor. Another good place to see it is at the screenshots of the scenario editor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Luke Skywalker Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 Yah its a really good scenerio editor, you can randomize or specifically place everything. I have AOE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compa_Mighty Posted October 8, 2001 Author Share Posted October 8, 2001 On Tuesday I think. Tie, are AT-ST's in multiplayer mode? I read at Heaven that they are built in scenarios only. Is that true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cheddario Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 I hope all the great scen design bugs (such as walking on water, I hope I can make mechs float around in space ) from AOK will still be here No matter how choppy our lousy or bad or too small or too big you think the animations are, this game's graphics will be easily moddable. There is already a modding program for AOK, I've made a cheese terrain mod for it, andmany other great mods have been made for it. Considering AOK and Battlegrounds use the same engine, it should be really easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Necro Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 i wanna know: - will their be replacements for the lasers from like fortresses - will the AA turrets be weakened - how easy will it be to make a full-fledged mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Magnus_Locke Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 I want to know if there are plans to tweak the aircraft and make them strafe instead of fire stationary. That really bugged me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hockey_Beast Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 Famba Generators are going to work and what is thier range? Maybe someone here knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eets Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 The Fambaa Shield Generators probably work the same as the rebel/imperial shield generators, in that they most likely have the same range. The thing about the Fambaa Generators though is that they are mobile. Tooyappa! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Luke Skywalker Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 Im asking; Why do air craft fire stationary when attacking a target. why not have them do a pass by? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cheddario Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 The bombers are ridiculous when they attack... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eets Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 Originally posted by Luke Skywalker Im asking; Why do air craft fire stationary when attacking a target. why not have them do a pass by? Physically it is less stressful on the game engine. Imagine an army of 30 Tie Bombers strifing a command center. That would be a large burden on the game engine and the modems of the players. I agree with the Bombers looking gay, though. I've never seen a fuzzy green ball in the star wars movies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Luke Skywalker Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 I like the look of the green balls but I just dont like the animation, like the bombers dont have to stop but they dont have to do amazing manuvers either if they just flew over and dropped there payload it would look alot nicer.
