trickey · July 19, 2003, 20:58

Wow Sn00py! I really can't wait for this to be done. Great work, keep it up!

GhengisFarb™ · July 19, 2003, 22:27

I somewhat worried he'll release the mod and I wan't realize until a week after its been out.

Co128 · July 20, 2003, 00:11

This mod is the only reason why I check this site

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, MAN! Hope you release this soon. Im gettin anxious

LordShiva · July 20, 2003, 14:27

yeah i bet it's going to kick some @ss.

meanwhile, no to walls. we'd end up with a line of walls down the middle of the map, tens of city-lengths long.. minefields, though, now that's an idea...

Co128 · July 21, 2003, 07:24

BAH! I need no minefields! (no offence) I like kickin ass the old fasion way. Throwing spears, shooting guns, running over people with megaton tanks... wish i could do that actually..

that still packs a punch

yep nothing is impenetrable, the point is , is to slow people down (to give u time to react or gather sufficient forces) (and/or) make them go around (so u can attack them from a position you find more favorable).

hi ,

does not work in the terrain , ....

either you go true it , and clear the things in your way as you go along or you dont , ......

going around can be a real pain , .....

works great for fishtraps , but not on land with humans , ......

with remote sentry guns ( we use them allready for years with great succes ) and electronics like those that can sniff human sweat 500 meters away you get the early warning , ..... however , ........ a minefield tends to work both ways , .......

have a nice day

GhengisFarb™ · July 23, 2003, 17:39

I didn't know Panag plays RON

Warlord_Knut · August 16, 2003, 08:57

ron has no tactic - the plazer wirh the most units wins.

Adagio · August 16, 2003, 09:27

Well... you could always set the max # of units down... the lesser units, the more tactics

hi ,

a small break was needed from CIV , .......

have a nice sunday afternoon

Bolli · August 29, 2003, 19:51

hi snoopy,
yeah alittle bit more Civ style will be nice. But not to much because, then you got to play Civ instead of RoN. On the other hand the whole history of Mankind in just an hour. . . . No! I think to extend the game is the right way. Keep on i´m waiting for your mod.

Vesayen · September 29, 2003, 18:56

BUMP! finish this!

Co128 · September 29, 2003, 21:35

Chances are man, he's never gonna finish. It was like maybe the beginning of May he started thinking up of this. We haven't heard from him for a while. Guess some of us got lives

. O well... can't do anything about it. After 105 posts... how disappointing. Anyways, I stopped playing this game ages ago. Just looking at this thread for the mood. Silly me

PTM · December 4, 2003, 23:16

I guess this mod died...

I stopped playing RoN for many, many months. Recently (and by recently I mean like two days ago) I picked up the game again after watching Indiana Jones 2 and 3 (the old school Nazis reminded me of RoN for some reason). I came back to see if this mod was done and I've found it abandonded...

Damn.

Adagio · December 5, 2003, 07:44

Yeah, pretty sad

rummy72 · December 31, 2003, 01:16

Well, why was this thread started at all if this mod was not a serious endeavor?

Panzeh · January 7, 2004, 20:48

I have the units smaller now, i'm going to work on some of the buildings now and then i'll work on getting the ranges to work.

Skanky Burns · January 9, 2004, 02:42

Good to hear.

Keep us updated on how you go.

Panzeh · January 9, 2004, 09:55

I'm going to look at the naval units and increase their size again first. I'll get the units looking good before i decrease range and maybe i'll make the shadows smaller, it kind of looks weird.

Then, and maybe then ill get to buildings.

FrostyBoy · June 20, 2004, 18:22

I know this is an old thread, but just for the record, I stopped because I couldn't go any further, there were certain things that needed tweaking, but couldn't be tweaked.

I did mention that before, but I wasn't clear enough about it. I just got Thrones and Patriots, I wonder if I can go back and tweak more stuff now. I will attempt it some time.

One_Dead_Villy · June 25, 2004, 11:51

what did u get stuck on. maybe i can tell ya if T&P will help

Grandpa Troll · July 21, 2004, 21:55

Been monitoring off and on..to answer why a person starts a mod...as I have done a lot of modding in 4 years with many games..is simply, for me that is, you come to a point where you realize you have entered a realmn where you may need a lot more experience..

I got a great piece of advice years ago..

**EDIT**

**TEST**

**EDIT-TWEAK**

**TEST**

(**CRY**)

**EDIT**

**TEST**

In other words many mods take a lot of time and trial and error

Good luck with your mod here Pal..hope ya get it

Panzeh · July 22, 2004, 07:04

Getting it to work is a lot more than simply lowering the scale for everything. It seems that the skid marks vehicles make don't match their size, among a huge amount of other things.

Admiral PJ · July 30, 2004, 11:36

It would still be nice to have more expensive Techs in RoN, so ages don't advance too quick. Maybe change build times.. make buildings take longer to make and units too.

How about making some new Futuristic Era graphics for Ron snoopy? Spaceports or something.

Hoping to Try the full game of RoN again.. only got the trial demo.

Adagio · July 30, 2004, 12:14

You can... check the different mods for this...

IMHO, Ron is well worth the moola plucked down for hours and hours off fun

Failry easy to mod, a simple Text Editor.I have EDITPLUS2 and XML Text Editor

Good luck

I don't know if anyone still reads this forum(I'd guess no based on the amount of posts), but since this thread is pretty much exactly what I'm working on with a mod i started about two weeks ago, I thought I'd post here. The main thread for the mod is at the RonHeaven site, here:
