RULES CREATED BY THE PLAYERS
These rules where created by the players of DUNE 2000 and most of the advanced players know  and use them in friendly games. By breaking these rules in a game your credibility will go down and players will take you for a newbie or a cheater. The host is the one who dictates the rules for the game before it begins. If the host doesn't say anything, the game has no rules, but you'd better ask about it before accepting.
NO RUSH - It means you can't attack the enemy base before 10 minutes of play.





NO ENG - It means you can't use engineers to capture enemy structures.
NO TURRETS - Don't build any kind of turrets.
NO HH - It means you can't hunt enemy harvesters. Avoid getting attack units on spice fields.






NERTHH - no enginner, no rush, no turrets, no harvester hunting.

GAME SPEED
Tips to speed up Dune 200 on the internet multyplayer mode:

1. Go to Windows main screen (desktop):
- right click the dune 2000 shortcut icon
- select
properties
- you will see a line saying:

C:\...\WESTWOOD\DUNE 2000\dune2000.exe
- add -f to the end of that line, so you will have:
C:\...\WESTWOOD\DUNE 2000\dune2000.exe -f
- it will make the faster and is very usefull if you have an old video card or if your video card driver is not up to date.
2. Change graphics to 8 bit mode in the main menu options (avoids "out of sync").
3. Turn off music during the game.
4. Don't play vs AI players, only human players with good connections.
5. Turn off worms and crates too.
6. Stop downloads and shut down ICQ during games.
