And here it is! D-day, day of days, prepare for war (hopefully).
Only War 2 should now be online and ready for downloading, click the image below to download.
The mod weighs in at 56.9 MB's in a winrar zip file.
You will need to have Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars in order to run the mod. (Not compatible with Kane's Wrath)
To install the mod, go to your C:\Users\Boomerang Python\Documents\Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars\mods directory and create a folder and name it OnlyWar2,
then you'll need to extract the files inside the .zip file into the folder you just created (a .big file and a .skudef file).
To launch the mod you simply start up your Command and Conquer 3 DVD auto-launcher and select 'Game Browser' then go to the tab 'Mods' and it should appear in that list,
now select the mod and then press the 'Launch Game' button at the bottom.
The alpha 0.1 features:
1 1v1 Map (A bridge too short)
1 Faction (Imperial Guard)
4 Units (Imperial Guardsmen, Chimeras, Hellhounds and Basilisks)
4 Buildings (Departmento Munitorum, Shrine of the Ecclesiarchy, Armamentorum, Manufactorum)
NO AI (So grab a buddy if you want to try it out)
Right, maybe I should explain how the economic side of the mod works, basically what you want to do is always make sure you construct a shrine as soon as you can, because these will generate resources (or 'faith') at a steady pace for you, and that's pretty much it. Easy really.
Also I'll repeat what I said in an earlier post; keep in mind that because it's only an alpha version it will be quite buggy and all kinds of glitchy.
So if anyone does take it for a spin, remember to post everything you encounter in the bug report section of the forum: Bug Report
Good luck out there,
Emperor Protects.

Right, I've decided I'm gonna release the first Alpha of the mod as is, not gonna tamper any more with it,
so within the next few days there will be a Only War 2 Alpha 0.1 uploaded to the site and made available to the public.
However, keep in mind that it will be reaaaaaaaally buggy and all kinds of glitchy. So if anyone does take it for a spin, remember to
post everything you encounter in the bug reports section of the forum: Bug Report
I'll post another one of these devlogs when I've uploaded the bugfest to the ftp.

Hello, you unfortunate followers of a slowly developing total conversion!
I'm finally getting around to posting some actual updates today, with sparkling new pics on top of that!
The state of the mod is that it's progressing really really slowly (curse you shiny new games!), however, I've got that map done that I was working on, man.. I didn't realise the amount of time it took making urban maps.. and it's not even particularly big either (1v1 map), now I'm just gonna try slapping it ingame and see if our massive imperial guard structures will fit in the zone I left open for building placement. And then I just might release a first version of this God-Emperor forsaken mod! (probably pretty unbalanced and buggy though).
And after that we'll see where I go, probably make some easy traitor guard/chaos units and add some kind of anti-tank infantry or a Leman Russ since there's currently nothing that can kill tanks except for the grenade launcher that you can upgrade your guardsman squads with (which is temporary obviously because they shouldn't be that good at killing armour).
And also, relating to the whole resource bit of the mod I thought I might mention that we're going without tiberium (obviously), and each faction will have a different type of building that generates resources or "Faith" as is the case with the Imperial Guard's "Shrines of the Ecclesiarchy". Chaos will have some sort of mobile taint generating deployable vehicle that spreads taint around it and weakens enemies who walk on the tainted ground (if we get that far), using the tiberium growth code.
Anyways, here's the pretty pictures of the Imperial Guard UI v0.9 (still a few buttons and cameos to replace) and at the same time it also shows a bunch of Basilisks both in deployed and undeployed mode (the second picture is the latest version of the UI (notice the slight difference in the button icons for structures and stuff).
Until the next update,
Emperor Protects.

Yes, yes we're still alive..
It's been like 2 months since we posted anything, but work has been done in the dark
but it has been slow work, really slow, considering we have only one texture artist on
the team right now and loads of models that are just waiting for a paint job,
that's why I'd like to see any people interested in helping out email or pm me
(you can find my email on moddb or on our forums)
Anyways, I did mention that work has been going on in the dark didn't I?
Well what's been done is we've gotten the Basilisk ingame albeit without any of it's fancy
animations we've made (two guardsmen crewing it, doing crew stuff), ran into a snag
when we tried to export it so we had to remove the crew for now until we can purge the
filth that is keeping us from doing the Emperor proud.
We also decided to throw in a screenshot of the new improved normal map on the
chimera treads.
Also we should have some space marine related news along with some more shots of the
basilisk coming up in a couple of days..
So until then, enjoy these screenshots,
Emperor Protects.

Alright, since the release of the SDK we've not actually accomplished too much, our main coder and mapper has smashed his computer and is getting a new one at the end of the month, and our secondary coder has turned violently ill with some ravaging virus from the north pole!
However, that leaves me with these 2 improvements to previous models/skins that i've been working on lately,
we're also working on the Wraith anims which might get done this weekend.. So we might have some extra goodies for you by then.
Anyways, here's the two new improved versions of the Necron Warrior and the Imperial Guard Guardsman.
Until next time, Emperor Protects.

We have the Rhino ingame, looking very nice indeed.
Don't forget to visit our forums (the dev logs section is a good place to look) and also the CNC3.net forums to get more updates on our progress.

7 months later, passing the release of CnC3, and soon passing the release of the CnC3 Mod SDK.
Soon, work will recommence on Only War 2, but until the SDK is released we will lay dormant in our pits, vigilant, awaiting the moment the battle flames up anew.
Soon Guardsmen! The time will come to prove your worth to the Emperor and the Enemy!

ROOT - MUNITORUM - NEWS UPDATE ----------------- LOADING
------------------------------------------------- 20%
------------------------------------------------- 50%
------------------------------------------------- 80%
------------------------------------------------- 100%.... DONE
UPDATE RECEIVED - VISUALS ONLINE.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Thought for the Day: In war victory is one part planning and nine parts faith.
Latest reports from our heroic agents beyond the frontlines tells us that the Greenskins have started bringing out armoured vehicles to the frontlines,
these facilities must be destroyed so that we can regain the edge against the foul xenos scum.
This is the mentioned facility that has been rolling out heavy armour the last couple of weeks.
Here are two variants of the crude warmachines the orks have started using in the field.
If you encounter any of these two targets, you must engage and destroy them or face the consequenses of heresy.
Emperor Protects.
UPDATE END.
