Hi i was wanting to know what program you used to skin the diadochi unit's i am using GIMP 2 but i can't seem to get this to open up the files i can edit loading screens and other stuff but i would like to no

Loading screens are .tga files so I think they can be done with GIMP. The unit models are made with 3dmax, the unit textures I am not sure but I think Photoshop or GIMP with a .dds plug in.

me to it's a great game spartan your avatar reminds me from something but im not sure if it is what im thinking of

**Spartan 666** · May 02, 2010, 01:08 PM

It's CABAL from Command & Conquer...

**korsakoff** · May 02, 2010, 01:16 PM

oh yes isn't that not that computer that can talk or something i have played tiberium sun and he was in it

**Spartan 666** · May 02, 2010, 02:40 PM

Yes, it was Nod's AI and battle advisor before going rogue. Tiberian Sun and its expansion Firestorm are my favourite RTS game ever.

**korsakoff** · May 02, 2010, 04:55 PM

yeah i know now i have tiberian sun it's okay but a bit hard lol i like the NOD because of kane

**Spartan 666** · May 03, 2010, 04:22 AM

If you like you can download it free with its expansion Firestorm from here: http://www.commandandconquer.com/classic I prefer GDI but Kane is the most charismatic character I've ever seen in a game. Too bad the CnC franchise has been ripped and ruined with the last game, which is the worst game I've ever played in my life.

**korsakoff** · May 03, 2010, 04:57 AM

yes i to believe C&C 4 was a let down i tried it and it just wasn't C&C

**korsakoff** · May 03, 2010, 04:58 AM

WOW it's free is that because they don't sell it anymore any ways i think i will download

**Spartan 666** · May 03, 2010, 11:38 AM

Tiberian Twilight is just awful, but because it's really lame. If it had been well made I could have enjoyed it even if it isn't a real C&C, but other than not being C&C it's also horrible, obscene...I can't find an appropriate word to describe it. I tried to play to see how the story ended, but really couldn't do it, I watched the cutscenes on Youtube. And I must say that I was lucky! The ending is lame too, so luckily I didn't waste my time playing a horrible game for a lame ending.

Anyway yes TS\FS is free because you can't find it in the stores anymore, you can buy The First Decade or Saga (both are collections of C&C games). But it has a lot more sense downloading them, since they are free. It's quite surprising considering the EA policy, which is MONEY MONEY MONEY AND

THE REST.

**korsakoff** · May 03, 2010, 03:29 PM

yes i agree to about how they messed up C&C4 i haven't seen the ending of it but im not going to buy it anyways when i saw they were making it into small battles and such i knew it would be a total fail but i just downloaded tiberium sun and it's good it's kepping me busy since i don't have RTW anymore but im going to ckeck the shops tommorow and see if it is there.

P.S i got your friends request

**Spartan 666** · May 04, 2010, 05:19 AM

I was lucky that a friend of mine bought it, got sick with it and lent it to me. I would be even more angry if I had spent even 1$ for that crap.

Tiberian Sun\Firestorm is absolutely better!
