Come to say that =) So far its the most advanced RTS browser i ever saw. Only downside is they mostly come from sc2 and u feel that in the game.

Lol every time someone says something is easy, it's anything but.

thats the interesting paradox of computers.

things humans consider easy is often extremely hard for computers and vice versa.

for example, if you tried to ask a computer: does this picture have a bird in it?
the computer would be super confused (it would have a hard time understanding the concept of a bird, even if you tried to teach it) but a human wouldn't have an issue.

if you asked a computer what the optimal route from address A to address B is, taking into account traffic conditions and weather, the computer would readily present you the answer approximately 2 seconds later (depending on computer prestanda) whereas a human would have to figure out where those addresses even are.

if you asked a computer what the proper english translation is for the swedish tounge twister:
"far, får får får? nej min son, får får inte får, får får lamm"
it would give you:
"father, will be getting? no, my son , may not get the sheep, sheep , lambs"
whereas a human will tell you the proper translation is:
"father, do sheep get sheep? no my son, sheep do not get sheep, sheep get lambs"

what you want

you don't need the source code
you probably don't need blizzard authorization as long as you only provide the code to use legal bw files to launch the game (but you dont provide the assets yourself)

I remember very clearly that Chris Sigaty tried so hard with his team to emulate muta stacking in SC2, they simply cannot do it because of a different game engine.

Everything is easier said than done, people should know that.

Can anybody link me to that statement of chris?

also lol at people thinking this stuff is easy.

I just saw this discussion... I ported Command and Conquer - Tiberian Dawn to HTML5, without access to the source code...

It has a working multiplayer with websockets... ( It uses a central server like SC2 instead of a P2P model)

I handle all the game data by using lazy loading.. I only load the images for the units/level as I need them...

Most people have reported that it translates well to the web and has reasonable performance....

You can play the game here.... Play C&C HTML5...

I considered porting SC1 to HTML5 as well... I think I could port a decent version within a couple of months with my existing HTML5 RTS engine, if I had access to game sprites and images....

Unfortunately, unlike C&C, there isn't easy access to the game/image data... If you know of any source, let me know and I would be glad to give it a shot.. I love SC...





Hahaha, this is awesome! I love how everyone who has zero knowledge of html5 is like "No, it's not possible."

As far as im aware its that their saying it not because of something to do with html5.

Impossible.

The logistics of transferring more than 100MB of spritesheets every time you load the game would make it unviable.

Performance is no problem at all. Running it in a browser or not makes no difference, you can run full 3d games in a browser no problem, the issue is transferring all that data (which is why most big games don't run in a browser), you may as well make it an installable game.


Temporary files? :D

that command and conquer browser recreation is amazing... just think of all the problems BW could eliminate if it wasn't bound to a 1998 bnet system, and color fixes, and launchers, and ladders, etc etc etc...
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

Yeah he just needed to remove all the copyrighted assets, which were basically the graphics(I forgot if there were sounds or not).
