Can't imagine anyone who isn't fairly new to Tiberian Sun (and modding it) will take more than 2 seconds of thinking to realize the answer to any of those questions; especially those who have either played or modded TS for over 10 years... Which would be most of the people here tongue.gif


I'd suggest you use trickier questions to which the answer was only mentioned a few times or even just once during either the missions (that includes the briefings, mission descriptions and videos) or for which the answer wasn't even mentioned in the game at all (make sure you have the source to back the answer up then however).
For example "who crashed the Scrinship?", "when was it built?", "what do mutants call uninfected humans?", "where did Kane get the Tacitus?" and so on...

Don't really need to have played Firestorm to know Umagon isn't the leader of the forgotten (firestorm also takes place right after TS, so nothing has changed in between).

Well 2 for the GDI space station one is incorrect.
No offense, but everyone should know in the last mission GDI or Nod. Such as GDI, destroy the ICBM launchers before they take down the Philadelphia.

(@ALL:I do not live near there)

Rest are correct

1 for Firestorm is Tratos. In the beginning of GDI campaign...that could be a question. wink1.gif

2 is right but we should all know. smile.gif

3 is Mammoth Tank. Mammoth Tank truely belongs to GDI but Forgotten gets it in missions. Mutant belongs to "Special"

4...RIGHT!

5. The Core Defender is the answer. If the question was just for Nod then you would be right.

The modding questions...All right!

D. trainrob.vqa (One where Orca Fighters blow up Nod cargo train)

3. During the breifing of what GDI mission is Kane first shown with a half-cyborg face?

A. Weather The Storm
B. Destroy Prototype Facility
C. Rescue Tratos
D. Retrieve Disruptor Crystals

4. What objective does not exsist in the GDI Mission "Final Conflict?"

A. Destroy Kane's Pyramid
B. Rescuing ICBM Launchers

C. Sonic Waves
D. Railguns

2. What mission must you warn several villages of CABAL's plan to turn all into cyborgs?

Incorrect ones are Firestorm 3 and possibly 4.

And modding questions wrong are 3.

3 is wrong because...have you played Firestorm? The Core Defender is in the last mission. You should know what it is if you've seen Team Black's Shoop Da Core!

4 is actually a tough one. The Cult Guard which is an edited Light Infantry for FSGDI05 "Dogma Day Afternoon"
Cult Guard takes out the Juggernaut in three hits. Ghost Stalker in two. Ghost Stalker in three if he's in Tiberium.

So I'd actually say Cult Guard is stronger but Juggernaut shoots far...It isn't an opinion is it?

5 you got.

Modding questions
1, 2, 4, and 5 are right.

The damage anim GAPOWR_AD is missing the key Start=12 which causes the damage anim to first play the undamaged anim, before starting the loop on the damage anim.

Nope it doesn't stands in the buglist yet. I didn't knew if there was something wrong with the PP when i read your question, but i knew that WW messed up the anims of the other buildings and in fact nearly every building anim. So i checked the ini and found the bug on the PP.

Screenshots. wink1.gif Just play at the lowest gamespeed, then do lots of screenshots and finally create a gif out of them.
