The *New* Official C&C3 Thread

I got that, could find a way to fix it, but I wouldn't bother building amps at the moment as it does appear you can use them online, problem with transferring them to other players.
 
Just found a solution on ea forums,

1) go into WorldBuilder and load up your map

2) hit CTRL+F to go into top view, and zoom out until you can see the whole map.

3) go to the edit menu and uncheck waypoints, object maps, until all you see is the bare map and the objects on it. ( If you have the map seeded with Tiberium, you should remove it for the time being)

4) hit the Print Screen key, go into an image editor like PhotoShop or GIMP, go
File - > New and then Edit-> Paste.

5) Crop the image into a square by holding down the shift key and dragging across the image so that only the map is selected. Hit Enter.

6) (with a catch) I had to flip my image vertically in order to sync up with my map. This may not apply to you, but It's just something I'd watch out for.

7) go to image -> Image Size and reduce the image to 128 or 256 square.

8) Save the file as a Targa (.tga) file with the map name and the extention "_art.tga
example: if your map is

"my_map. map"

its minimap file would be

" my_map_art.tga"

put it in the same folder as your completed map.

Is there any way to record and play back a macro?

I want to instruct all construction queues to create silos. Seems that I keep hitting the capacity quickly on skirmish rather than putting my attention to the rest of the map..
 
lol no I don't believe there is a macro feature..
Just queue up 10 tanks or 20 rocketeers, or a couple of high tech defence towers (which you can cancle later if you need quick cash).

Yea 2v2 I've lost far too many through noob partners :(

Ingame name is Eriedor.
 
Just had my best game yet!!!

2v2, can't remember name of map as I automatch, its arid land witha city in the middle and 4 tib patches and cliffs surrounding the city.

Me an ally went to the middle straight away to setup camp as you do, opponents surveyor gets rushed and destroyed and he quits, its now 2v1 and barely 90 secs played.

I carry on for the sake of it, thinking I'll just annoy em. Fortified my mini base in the middle and secured 2 patches, put up 4 war factories and quickly started a force, I had both gdi and nod tech at my disposal. Sent up radar jamming missle and launched a small attack at one opponents middle base as a lil diversion so any voice warnings he receives he thinks its that. Then moved in a medium force round the back of his base and crippled him ;d

Game lasted awhile but I prevailed :d

So one of your enemies quit near the start, and from then on it was 2v1?

Awesome victory. ;):p
 
Operation Stilleto is REALLY STARTING TO **** ME OFF I capture the GDI base in the bottom left like it tells me to and yet theres another one to the north that gets blown up and its mission failed WHAT THE HELL it didnt tell me to get that one.

I am spending all my time trying to wipe out the base defences on the first GDI base and befor eI know it its game over.
 
Classic mission that. I spent ages on it - in the same way you are doing it.
But if you listen to what the GDI troops say, they won't bother you at all - until you attack them or capture a structure.

So line up all your engineers next to the buildings and then takeover the buildings one by one! Or for a 'better' approach use the planning mode so they're all captured at the same time.

The pump out tanks to head to the top base.
 
I did thats how I got the first base.

Also the alien base I captured it and it got destroyed and it said mission over ??????

What the hell is that about ?

It says capture or destroy and if I capture it and then they kill it its mission over, makes no damn sense.

I am too busy taking out the anti-infantry turrets to actually get any tanks up there and the lack of money dont bloody help.

Took me a couple goes on hard to complete. What I did was simultaneously attack SW gdi base and east scrin base with the nod elite troops (cant remember name). Blowing up the scrins tech centre prevents them from producing uber air attack, but act quickly after that to take SW gdi base as the north base will destroy the scrin without their air superiority,

Yeah.

"Cannot Connect To Backend Server".

But I've had that for 8 days now. I've convinced myself it's Tiscali being nobbers and blocking ports or something. Hamachi hasn't logged in for over a week too. :mad:
