  • Here are some 1024x768 wallpapers I made from the in-game backgrounds a while back. Nothing spectacular, but then I'm not that great with Photoshop. http://files.filefront.com/Tribes+2+Wallpaperszip/;13912904;/fileinfo.html
  • That's a good point, I didn't think of that. I was thinking maybe you could hop out real quick and toss him some flares/missiles if he gets low. I guess it's not really any different than just taking flares and missiles normally though. I said that, not Kauket :P edit: note - sj pack in a tank definitely won't do a thing…
  • But don't your tank and your driver still show up on the enemy CC, and won't the driver still have his IFF (unless of course you hop out and activate the pack)? Also can't turrets still shoot the tank while you're in it? It seems like maybe an ammo pack or something would be a better choice (so you can resupply your…
  • Cool! I didn't realize that boosting without holding an arrow key acted as an air brake. One question though...does having an sj pack as a gunner really do any good while you're inside the tank?
  • @BossMeUp Weapon and vehicle skins go in C:\...\Tribes2\GameData\base\textures\skins If you also have some weapon effects (sniper rifle beam, explosions) a select few of these belong in C:\...\Tribes2\GameData\base\textures\special instead. Dig around in the textures.vl2 file to figure out which effects belong in…
  • I think I'm gonna try to learn to play Allegiance this summer. Other than that I don't really play much else, except for the occasional game of Age of Empires III, America's Army, or Trackmania Nations Forever (I
  • Hmm... After consistently UEing last night, the tab all of a sudden works. Nothing else has changed since then. I didn't even shut down my computer - just put it in hibernate. What the heck?? edit: Maybe my computer was playing an April Fool's joke on me :P
  • It does seem a bit weird, but I'm assuming it's caused by TribesNext because: a.) I get a UE the instant I hit the "LAN Game" tab, not when I try to host a server b.)When I remove all TN - related stuff from my T2 folder the tab works fine c.)The only scripts I have installed are the T2 bouncer ones and this one that makes…
  • If anyone is interested, here are some amateurishly photoshopped TribesNext forum sigs I made to promote TN on other forums. Feel free to link to them on my photobucket account or host them somewhere yourself.…
  • If you're interested in a Tribes-like game on a newer game engine, you could check this out. It's a team of modders attempting to build a Tribes-inspired game on CryEngine 2. They seem to be making decent progress, and it will probably be pretty cool if they ever finish it. Just thought I'd throw that out there.
  • Oh, okay. Guess this goes to show how much I know about this kind of thing ::) Moral of the story: DON'T LOSE YOUR PASSWORD ;)
  • This is an unlikely culprit, but I connect to the internet through a Linksys four port wireless-g router and sometimes (usually around twice a week) I experience some pretty bad internet stutter that causes freezing almost exactly like what you describe. This happens to all computers connected to the router, regardless of…
  • Also, other people have been getting the "not a valid Win32 application" message because they somehow ended up with an old version of the game. http://www.tribesnext.com/forum/index.php?topic=51.0 To tell if you have the same problem as the guy in this thread, go to C:\Dynamix\Tribes2\GameData and hover over the…
  • http://www.tribaloutpost.com/tribes2/styles A few player and vehicle skins, quite a few weapon skins, and a ton of cool effects. If you want a green shocklance beam, blue flares, or a red lightning - effect disc explosion, this is the place to go.
  • One problem I see here is that the newest build of T2 is 25034--21570 is like the oldest version out there. It might be that when you try to apply the TribesNext patch to v.21570, it breaks the tribes2 executable. You could try patching your version up to the latest one and see if that helps. The best thing I could find to…
  • If you keep having issues with opening VL2s, you could try Zipeg. It'll let you view and extract stuff directly from VL2 files.
  • I went to the community homepage and saw this: I got all excited 'cuz I thought the TribesNext master server patch was done. Don't do that to me :P
  • Thanks, Kryand. I finally got it working, and it looks sweet ;D. As for the small/big file thing, it really didn't make sense to me that bigger files would work while smaller ones wouldn't, but I had at least three smaller effect files from different authors fail to work (even with a name change), while two large weapon…
  • Welcome to TribesNext!! We'll look forward to playin with you when the patch comes out :)
