Community-written game manuals
Dauth 05 Dec 2008
We have made several manuals for the games we all play and are always looking to add more.
Generals
Zero Hour
Tiberium Wars
Kane's Wrath
Red Alert 3
We've also started work on a Concepts in games page that you are more than welcome to add to.
Everyone is more than welcome to start work on NEW manuals as long as they will provide the content for them.

Indeed it's good to see the community writing stuff for itself. At the moment we need content and help mostly for Kane's Wrath and Red Alert 3. The game concepts has been fleshed out quite a bit, but if you can think of a technique/definition/etc. that has been missed off the list, please put it in, even if it's just a title, as it will give us something to go on.
D.K. 08 Dec 2008
Hey, Dauth, have you put the "ogging" or suicide run tactic in the game concepts? If it's fine, I'd like to put it, and following explanation with it.
Dutchygamer 08 Dec 2008
Well, as this thread is here, I would like to make a request:
if there are any KW players who would like to contribute, then do it please. At this time, only Dauth and I are doing the whole KW manual, with only me of us that has actually played the game... I also haven't played the game in a while, so my info about costs and requirements can be a bit buggy

Libains 08 Dec 2008
Koala, add whatever you'd like to - Dauth or myself or one of the mods will glance over it, and it's likely we'll leave it there - it's a community wiki, hence the community writes it!
Kichō 08 Dec 2008
I have no idea how to edit a Wiki but I'll add a few bits here so people can edit it if that's alright.
Anyway

Dauth 08 Dec 2008
I have a large file with info for the changes made in KW form TW which I am working through. any corrections to the TW manual are also welcome.
Amdrial 08 Dec 2008
I've started working on the Soviet unit special abilities, aswell as typing over the unit descriptions from my own Premium Edition manual.
Any help would be appreciated setting up the other Soviet pages.
Edit: Added navy. The Wiki grand contributors might want to restructure the page a bit.

Destiny 09 Dec 2008
I noticed this in the concepts, the stealth area.
Pathfinder moves = Seen Stealth Fighter variants fire = Seen. Heroes attack without knife/uses bomb/ability = Seen.
Oh yes, Turtling, not turtleing

Any ingame units, when stealthed, cannot be seen except by specialised detector units.

WARthog 09 Dec 2008
I must say, very good work with the KW manual.
I will keep a watchful eye over it and add or correct anything i can.
One major issue i noticed, but don't know how to fix is:
The aircraft section for Nod is missing the Contents bar. This is why the text from the venom and vertigo appears partially covered by the picture.

Dauth 09 Dec 2008
Contents pages only exist for pages with more than 3 items. I'll try to force one though. Btw keep cheeking first post for cameo requests.
Fixed WARThog's bug, add
__TOC__
to any page you want to have a table of contents.

Dauth 10 Dec 2008
Updated cameo request list,
BTW if you have a game a lot of people play you can start a manual for it. If you're unsure, ask.

JJ 10 Dec 2008
Spy Drone gen point button is identical to the Scout Drone unit button and the Drone Armor upgrade button. (See how lazy EA is?)
Dauth 10 Dec 2008
I have now got cameos done for the Gens/ZH and TW and KW manuals (albeit with some at a lower resolution) so I am happy to say they are now ready t be thoroughly scrutinised and made complete.
Dauth 16 Dec 2008
Fix it? We don't have all the cameos, only the ones I found out in the aether.
Libains 28 Dec 2008
This is a bit of a plea now - Dauth and I have ben working hard to finish off the RA3 manual, but what we really need is for somebody to write down the names of the support powers for each faction as I'm away from my main PC and can't access it. Any help in this regard would be fantastic. Cheers guys!
CommanderJB 29 Dec 2008
I'll do it now that I finally have access to RA3; but it might take me a little while as my computer time is a bit limited at the moment. Still I'll chip in when I'm able.
Libains 29 Dec 2008
Thanks for your support guys. However, Dauth and I managed to get them done last night. Of course if you'd like to read over them that would still be awesome. I intend to flesh some sections out over the next couple of days with prices and power etc., but for the most part we are looking at a manual that just needs a few corrections now
Dutchygamer 29 Dec 2008
From what I see, everything is fine, except for some stuff:
Allies:
-all units have a nice description, except the navy units. If someone could take a look at that?
-same for structures. May be not that important compared to the units though
-some missing/outdated images (Chrono Rift uses a new version since patch 1.05 iirc, and some structures miss image completely)
Soviet:
-all ground and naval vehicles have a short description as Allied navy
-same for structures. May be not that important compared to the units though
-some missing/outdated images
Imperial:
-all units and structures have short descriptions
That is all I could find. Still, good job guys
