Description


Red Wolf Missions 2.0
The Red Wolf Missions (TRW Missions) have been revamped and re-released! Fully redone by ssuser to take advantage of a more modern Battlezone, they have cinematics, VO's, custom units, and more!

8 Missions featuring the Red Wolves, an elite CCA squadron. The story follows along with the original BZ campaign.

Fully Ported From 1.5
TRW Missions were originally released 20 years ago, and the 2.0 version was released recently for 1.5. They haven't been released for Redux until now.

You can also play as this faction on an Instant Action Pack made by our very own ScrapPool, here! https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3247175428

Credits
  • Lots of people helped out in bringing this back to renewed life. ssuser did all of the terrain rebuilding and painting, making the new missions from scratch, writing lua scripts, writing the 1.5 shell, etc.

  • Thanks a bunch to Janne for some of the lua scripting, help was much appreciated here.

  • Deus Ex Ceteri built the Baba Yaga for this mod, a great unit. Also the Ceres textures.

  • ScrapPool for the Red Wolf Redux Units, custom HUD, pilot, and title fonts!

  • GrizzlyOne95 for the scary alien unit, Black Dog MRU, Red Wolf buildings, and other custom models such as relics. Porting new content to Redux campaign format, and fixing several Redux specific bugs.

  • Heracles Brigade in general for useful suggestions and ideas.

  • Thanks to the pre-release beta testers - GrizzlyOne95, Goomba, systeme, and DriveLine.

  • Lots of space art derived from NASA images. Keep flying those probes, guys. Space gamers everywhere are counting on you. :D

  • Russian voices created with elevenlabs software. https://elevenlabs.io

  • Patriotic Soviet and Communist songs courtesy of www.marxists.org

  • Other art used portraying 90s gaming icons is all copyrighted and trademarked by its respective owners.

    Note: Please contact GrizzlyOne95 for any issues with this pack, as I handled the porting. I will fix any bugs as I can!

@Sciume, not sure how that got screwed up, but I uploaded a fix for it. Thanks for letting me know.

Something happens in the third mission, first an error that says "FSM Error: Camera stack overfow" after moving a bit into the canyon where you start, but it doesn't cause a crash. Then the tug never drops the cargo to pick up the relic once you scan it, it just sits there forever trying to get close to it.

@GrizzlyOne95 - Whatever you did worked. Thanks!

@themachine3363 Sorry for the bug, I just pushed a quick fix that should hopefully resolve this error.

@GrizzlyOne95 - Been enjoying this up until mission 3 when I get to the second way point the game crashes and displays this message "lua script update error [string "rsmisn03.lua"]:232 bad argument #2 to 'dropoff' (string expected, got no value)"

Not sure what any of this means. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

They are tacked on after the final mission in the campaign. If you beat the mission on Titan the next mission available is the first extra mission. Dont launch from archive as you won't find it there.

How do you access the extra missions? They don't show up under archives for me.

This campaign was written solely by ssuser, who made it about 20 years ago for the 1.4 patch I think. He recently redid the mission with scripting and custom assets and I ported it to Redux with the help of ScrapPool for the Red Wolf units (I did the buildings). ssuser did a great job tying in story points from the main campaign.

Hercules is not the same asset actually, I made the Olympian VTOL based on the relic of it, adding in guns on the wings and turning it from a building into a craft.

@GrizzlyOne95 - blitzed through this one recently as well - no performance problems here! Very good again. Did you and your other contributors (?) write it to mirror the Soviet and American campaign progress in the original BZ - my memory of the original campaigns is hazy but it feels vaguely to me like the Red Wolves' movements are tied in well to the progress of those campaigns.

Also, was Hercules the asset for the Olympian VTOL in ISDF chronicles?

Again, so good I have to consider it canon. Good job again!
