dune 2 extended

[Exmit]

Playing dune 2k , i've searched for dune 2 and hey ! i've found out that dune 2 is actualy being modded

Dune 2 eXtended is a spin-off of the Dune II mod, Super Dune 2. Just like SD2, Dune 2 eXtended allows to command the "new" factions: the Mercenaries, the Fremen and the Sardaukar.

The mod is aimed at providing lots of new content from new graphics to a completely new storyline stretching across 3 campaigns. The ultimate goal of the project is to fully exploit the abilities of Dune II, and make a game that is enjoyable and challenging to play. The entire to-do list includes:

* new menu graphics
* new animated Mentat screens
* new briefings and Mentat information
* new campaigns with various missions
* scenario, AI and other fixes


Currently, the following features are completed:

* main menu title screen
* side selection screen
* "Do you want to join side X?" dialogue
* faction profile/introduction text
* new player ranking system that uses the actual rank names from the book, instead of all those "desert mongooses" and the like
* fully animated Fremen and Sardaukar Mentat screens ("recycled" images from Cryo's Dune)
* new planet/herald images for all new sides
* a fully playable Demo campaign
* modified tech trees and new units
* a more powerful AI
* new briefings and Mentat descriptions (in progress)

Ain't that Duncan from Dune 1?

Come to think of it, that must be where they got their inspiration for the Centauri haircuts in Babylon 5...

Good stuff, the same guy made unofficial patch to vanilla Dune2, that fixed serious bug and made game more challenging.

Ain't that Duncan from Dune 1?

Si senior. SDune uses few sprites from Dune 1.

It's not working for me - it hangs forever after starting. All the other mods of that guy, including the update to the 1.07 official patch and the update to super dune 2 are working, but the "Extended Demo" is not. A pity, i really wanted to delete the dune and super dune 2 folders from my dos collection. (sd2 is very inconsistent in terms of interface)
