Is this is cheat?
« on: December 22, 2009, 09:52:33 AM »
I dont understand about standart game and mods! If i create bot from any mod content this is cheat? I play RA2 only offline mode so i cant test how and what works in multiplayer! Can somebody explain this to me? Did mod-content bots can fight with normal content bots in multiplayer?

Certain mods, aka DSL are so established that they can be used (Everyone has it basically). However some custom components may not be compatible online. Try to have the same mods installed as others before playing with them online.
Better than GK since 2009.

Don't try to, you actually have to have the same components/mods as them.

No ACTUAL rules, in tourneys hosts state rules but online check with who you're against.
DSL is fine, other things are less popular.

Just stick with Stock and DSL. Don't mix them though.

You can use .bmps as well, remember they have to be exactly 64x64.

For .tga's, download Paint.net

There's a tutorial in the game folder about making decals.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.
