Thanks to a lot of debugging and testing and reverse engineering, I have managed to get Set_Animation and Set_Animation_Frame to work 100% over the network.
Even JFW_Vechicle_Animation works (well the new version does)
This means that RA2Ven gets working Terror Drones, Reborn gets working legs for their Mammoth MK II, Titan, Wolverene, Juggernaut etc, SWMOD gets working animations for their ships and stuff and basicly, anyone in the renegade community who needs fully working Set_Animation or Set_Animation_Frame gets it, including RenAlert.

All of this stuff is done via the jfw.dll I created which is a new dll that will hold all my code that patches the game exe, needs to run on the client or needs to send data over the network (although so far, its only got the animation fix which needs client side code and patching but no network). Everything here is 100% my own work with no code from SK or anyone else.

It will be released as part of the scripts.dll 1.9 I am woking on.
Due to how dangerous it would be to give hackers a direct way to run code on the client, jfw.dll couild well be closed source.

Now that I have fixed Set_Animation, reborn gets working mecha and ACK and SK get nothing

Sounds and the other things that are in bhs.dll will stay in bhs.dll and will be included in Core Patch 1 as planned.
scripts.dll 1.9 (with jfw.dll) may also end up in Core Patch 1 depending on how long CP1 takes to finish and how long 1.9 takes to code.

You've said yourself in IRC that you thought SK could fix it...So why think now that he can't?

They won't fix it because it would give other mods an advantage.

yep, thats the point.
SK could fix it.
But, he wont fix it (or if he does fix it, it would be only for RenAlert)
So I fixed it so that all mods can use it.

Except for those other things that you're overlooking, you know, the stuff you added to Reborn that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

If Reborn can have "medic guns" and big dildo looking Obelisks of Light, I'm sure Red Alert can have walking tanks... :rolleyes:

Heh, big dildo Obelisks have been there since Tiberian Dawn, I honestly don't understand what's so wrong with them.

The damn thing is based off the secret Firestorm Cinematics, but the texture isn't.

Anyway, both the RenAlert team and the Reborn team can do what the fuck ever they want, why? Because none of you are paid to do your work.

Wise Words. Take heed.

Thanks Jonwill for fixing this for the community.

RenAlert & Reborn are considered competitors?

Confused I find that rather sad and disheartening

If both teams were trying to make the mods for the same CnC era then i could understand competion.

But they are not.

They are mods based on different games with different gameplay, they are still both Cnc but they are also quite different.

Its sad that work on either of these free mods would be hindered by childish competition & squabbles. Sad


Oh, and Good work jonwil Smile Hopefully it will be the end of hyperactive tanks.

Competition is good. Whining about "competition is bad" is not. You don't get better by pulling a Reborn and saying "we just do this for fun!!!!!1 NO CRITICISM ALLOED"

Everything I had seen from SK lead me to believe that if he did fix Set_Animation, it would be for RenAlert only (and they do need it, its used for the ore truck arms animation). This includes the quote from ACK from before.
Should Silent_Kane provide me with a version of bhs.dll (to put into Core Patch 1) featuring working Set_Animation before I release 1.9, I will use that. (but only if said bhs.dll is something Reborn, RA2Ven and SWANH can use).

Competition makes things better. It's a fact proven time and time again. Without competition, there is no reason to improve yourself. There's nothing to work towards, and things will always stay at the same level.

Does anyone remember the thread Blazer posted about EA elliminating their competition? That explained things very good. More competition makes for better products.
