NEVER AGAIN ============ AUTHOR: joshcomm1 (Jon C. Randall) E-MAIL: joshcomm@earthlink.net ICQ: 81658469 MAP NAME: Never Again PRI MAP TYPE: Desert SEC MAP TYPE: Water SIZE OF MAP: 9.71mb unzipped, 9.77mb zipped, 64mb, 30 x 30 MAX NO. PLAYERS: 10 TESTED: Yes TOOLS USED: Annihilator 1.5, HPI Pack, Small AI Designer v1.0.0. REQUIRED FILES: TAMEC2000.hpi "They swore an oath before their god, that never again, will their lands fall." MAP TOPOGRAPHY: ============ This battlemap has variable wind, excellent metal, and some thermal vents for war. Exellent for various multi-styled combos. Used in both multiplayer/skirmish mode. COMBINATION TILESETS USED: ============ Earth Desert, and a host of other tile sets and features. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: ============ This has an intelligent AI, and will tax your combat abilities fully. The layout of the land has full strategic capabilities. Use them wisely. Further, make sure any AIBoost.ufo to removed from your C:\Cavedog\Totala directory. Place this in a special folder where you can keep track of it. I have found that most AIBoost's work in conflict with Switeck's "BugFix" and is not necessary for this map (or others). "Never Again" has 4 levels of play (Easy, Medium, Hard, Network 1), each with their own AI and Start Positions. Do have your initial settings for computer/human metal and energy sets for 1000 only on all levels (both Skirmish Mode and Online)! I recommend using WinZip to extract this "Never Again.zip" file (and remember where you extracted it to): saving the "never.jpg" for viewing, "never.txt" to read, and this unique battlemap "Never Again.ufo" (in the AI folder) to be placed directly in your C:\Cavedog\Totala directory. I have created an AI specifically designed for this map called "Never Again". This new AI file works very well with this map, and may surprise you as to how sophisticated it is. I recommend your creating a file called AI in your C:\Cavedog\Totala directory, then installing the "Never Again.txt" AI file into this newly created AI file. With this unique and intelligent AI, you will see an enhanced warfare that is enjoyable, aggressive, and more like the actual combat if you were going against other human players. Do be prepared for an extended game, and most definitely don't let your guard down or become lax in your strategy. If you do, it will be a costly mistake. You must have TAMEC2000.hpi in your C:\Cavedog\Totala directory, and either The Core Contingency or Battle Tactics expansion packs installed in order to use this map. ============ joshcomm1 (Senior Map Reviewer - TAMEC) www.tamec.org joshcomm1 (Staff - AfterMath Design) www.unituniverse.com/aftermathdesign CONTACT INFORMATION: ============ joshcomm1 - Jon C.
