I know Tiberian Sun can do more than just 2 sides ... so I was wandering how possible a mod would be allowing you to play each side from TD and RA: GDI, Nod, Allies and Soviets?

Just thought it might be a fun idea.

At the moment I have plenty on my plate with DTA alone and in a mod which combines both TD and RA (which was actually the thought behind DTA about 3 years ago), all 4 factions would have to be balanced out against each other in such a way no faction will clearly be overpowered or underpowered opposed to another.
Also, nothing of this sort is going to happen until both DTA and RAR have been polished enough, which also will still take a while.

Aww.....
It's not like I can blame you though. School started for me again about a week ago and I've had almost no time for anything on my computer.

This would be great, but the balance would be bloody hard to figure out whilst still keeping each universes sides true to the original feel. Don't let that stop you though... Wink

Speaking of RAR - I can't get it working with DTA. I get the common UDP_DTA.dll error. I've read about the fix to this many times, that this file should be in with the DTA data - but it isn't there. I'm thinking perhaps the file structure has been changed since RAR was released in 2010 and DTA no longer supports it? Or am I missing something fundamentally simple? Thanks Smile

Indeed; RAR only works with version 1.10 of DTA. The reason why newer versions of DTA don't support RAR is because that although RAR was released, it was never actually completely finished and Player1 completely stopped working on it after the release. I intend to implement mod support for DTA 1.12, but I don't expect Player1 to modify RAR to make it compatible (which won't be worth the effort if RAR won't first completely be finished anyhow).

Don't worry though; a better alternative will surely pop up after DTA 1.12's release Wink
