Quick Community Uplink!
So, let's get to the business:
Community Sites Ups and Downs
-> Comming soon, CnC3.Net! The latest modding hub for C&C3! The site won't simply cover the game, but it will revolutionize modding for it, offering resources and tutorials once the NDA* of the beta of the game expires. The site will be a reference for those who are new to SAGE modding and I'm on it. Visit CnC3.Net and check their goals HERE. And also, they have a full interview with Screaming Cricket, leader of Vietnam: Glory Obscured and also who designed the site.
-> Central Gaming Studio has moved for the 1000th time. Now they are hosted on Planet CnC and the site is getting some good content. Pay them a visit!
-> Does anybody knows what is THIS? The Brotherhood Of Nod might have a new home in about 68 days, according to the counter. That's crazy, isn't it?
Spotlighted Generals Modding News
-> C&C: All Stars: Blbpaws has announced that there is a new trailer of the mod C&C All Stars. The mod for Zero Hour brings the Tiberium Storyline units to fight against the Red Alert ones and the Generals ones. It adapts the units from the old games into the recent Generals concepts, such as Generals powers. With the generals powers you can make veteran Titans, build Prism Tanks, launch parabombs and a Lightning Strike. Here's the announcement of the trailer specially from Blbpaws words:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I'm very happy to be able to finally write this newspost. While the All Stars team had a great time playing All Stars internally for quite a while now--with many of the units and ideas we're bringing back also coming back in C&C 3 news, it almost feels like we're playing that game, too--it's time you guys, who have waited (mostly) patiently for too long got to see a bit of the actual gameplay. While we're not prepared to show you guys any of the Conyard build system just yet--next video maybe--you can see many units, superweapons, and buildings in action in our new video.
The trailer mostly features the Red Alert Alliance, an army made of units from all the Red Alert games. In this trailer, you can specifically see Conscripts, Grenadiers, Grizzlies, the Grizzly Chronoshift Generals Power, Apocalypse Tanks, Tesla Tanks, Longbows, Nukes, and more, including many Tiberian Coalition units (often on the receiving end of some heavy Red Alert Alliance punishment). I think it will give you a nice taste of the mod, and our future videos will show you even more. As always, feel free to discuss the mod in our forums, where I've created a special thread for discussion of the video. Feel free to ask questions about the mod in your own threads, though some of the details may still be too much under wraps for us to give a full answer.
We've got three different ways for you to view it. First, we have a High Quality Quicktime download for you, weighing in at 55MB. Second, we have a much lower quality Quicktime download for the 56kers, coming in at 6MB. For those of you who would prefer to stream it or don't like Quicktime, we have a medium quality streaming version through a Flash viewer. All in all, the video is about two minutes in length.
Enjoy!"
