Battlezone 2 / How Do you Take Down ISDF Bomber Playing Scion?

October 01, 2008, 06:06:32 PM

Ive tried getting inside a gun spire to shoot the bomb as it falls or even try & get the bomber from inside the spire but I have never timed this right & I end up spinning round & round in game over mode!!

If it was ISDF V ISDF then hornet rockets is simple answer but playing Scion V ISDF is tough & because I can't take out the bomber it keeps coming back & killing my base?

Do you have to upgrade Archers with a specific weapon upgrade?

Have played the Scion SP mission 'Crystals' & at the end of the mission game crashes with the following log:

BTW running Vista Ultimate SP1 & all other missions seemed ok up to this so I can't move to next mission?

Mine was a clean fresh install BZ2 then patched straight to Pb4.

I also found that the SP missions from 'On Thin Ice' onwards were somewhat more difficult than the original SP missions!! In fact 'Counter Attack' mission when you are parachuted into the base I had to use the cheat code cause I could not hold my pools & for the first time the Scion Titans come at your base when you are struggling to build up units??

RD do you have plans of incorporating the Scions ability to use jammers? I know up until 1.3 they were never effective and you could still target the Scion buildings etc even when jammers were used! 1.3 however made it extremely difficult in IA or anything battle versus Scions to target any building or structures until the jammers were taken out!

Great to hear the Scions & hadeans will have air defences

and also the refactoring of the 3 way sounds really interesting.

Thanks again

There's a typo in s_vs_h2.aip that causes the Brawler not be built:

[plan280]
plantype = "buildminimums"
planpriority = 151
buildtype1 = "fvrbombcpy" <---- should be fvrbombcpu
buildcount1 = 3

Thanks for the feed back RD! I have finally located the above and changed the type as indicated. I will give that 3 way instant a try tomorrow or if there is any other IA 3 way you wish me to try and give feed back let me know!

Thanks again for the help.

Just played 3 way "The Scrap" & no issues except that the Scions stayed mainly in their base & it was easy to clean them up! (never saw any brawlers?)

Hadeans kept coming in waves & I finally got em by using the bomber & sending in 30 APC's with 30 Hornet Rocket Tanks

Great work though RD!

To see FE in full glory using the 1.3 graphics engine is brilliant! RD & Commando thanks for the endless effort & time.

RD how did you get on with Demolition Desert in testing? Was it the mother of all battles!!

I had to reinstall BZII 1.2 with FE to double check how many IA maps there were & I was surprised myself to count 17!!! It's been that long since I played them.

Your 1.3 version has certainly made the 3 way tougher in the maps that are on there if you use the FE AIP. "Three Ways Frozen" was a real pig in 1.2 cause everytime I played it the game would crash!

Imagine "Demolition Desert" in the 1.3 compatibility using the FE AIP

You post said "I also have a fe3wayia.exe that 'contains no valid data', so if anybody has that, please post it."?? I am no computer wizz but I could help if I knew what I was looking for or what exactly you want?

RD: I have all 6 of the 3-way IA maps but what I was asking is that there are 17 IA 3-way maps in the 1.2 version of FE so will the aim be to make all these maps 1.3 compatible? I know it is very time consuming recoding all these!

I have the same issue with the radar & overview map as it does overlap the scrap counter?

The game is great though & the instant action maps are very tough using the FE AI. I had a solid base in one of them & was about to send a hord of Hornet Rockets into the Scion base but before I went about 20 scion Brawlers came into my base & total cleaned me out & blitzed my recycler & all!!!

One question Red Devil, is do you intend to add the other 3 way instant action maps when you have time, that were in the original FE 1.2 version? Or are you waiting for this PB4 before adding anything else?

Thanks again for your time making this compatible!

Hi Red Devil

I am a noob for this FE 1.3Pb3 & have been watching this space to see how its going. Would like to give it a shot as I see there is a Zip file now to download but could you briefly tell me in what order I have to go about installing all this cause at present I just have a fresh installation of BZ2 1.3Pb3 but am confused as to why the 'FE_PB3.pak' is 272Mb? Is this the FE full install or is it all the changes you have had to make?
