Cavedog released a lot of new units over the life of this game and the modding community is still vibrant and flourishing...
check out http://www.tauniverse.com as a great starting point to add new content to the already impressive offering :)
every page related to TA seems to be 404.
I know there's a mod that improves AI, sets an higher max unit number and add and fix stuff. And there are unofficial patches too, where to find them?

http://files.tauniverse.com/fu/Files/TotalAnnihilation.aspx seems to be the place
Aren't all the Cavefog units included inthis version?
Blimey, that TA Escalation mod looks awesome! Seems like they just ported everything from supreme commander back to total annihilation!
Must get that!

TParis: Aren't all the Cavefog units included inthis version?

Well there were 6 (I think?) after the 3.1 patch which was the last patch as I recall.... haven't yet bought it so don't know if they are or not.
they are not in the game. just check if "the flea" is in the game(ARM Lv1 Kbot). the game is patched to 3.1 and not 3.1c (weird).
heres the link to the 6 offical units: [url=]http://tazone.tauniverse.com/resource/units.shtml[/url]

The links for those units are dead, oh well. Is there a way to get the GOG version to 3.1c? Thanks.

Unzip and drop in your Total Annihilation folder.
This is the 3.1c patch, though I'm not sure it's necessary.

Scratch what I wrote....
great investigative work bhxob
perhaps GoG will be able to get permission form Atari to host the official stuff as bonus content so that if (when?) the tauniverse files do go it will still be accessible from here.
perhaps someone who has purchased the game already can open a support ticket about this?

To clarify: The 3.1c patch never included the 6 additional units which were released after the final patch-level.
Also, the 3.1c patch was a patch of 3.1 to remove the Boneyards client. Boneyards is already not a part of the GoG version, and GoG's TA appears to be 3.1c equivalent (the 3.1c patch above says it can't patch the version from GoG for that reason, afaik). The last time I had a disc based install of TA and patched up to 3.1c the starting screen also displayed 3.1 as I recall, but I could be wrong.
All you really need to get up to speed is the 6 unit pack, and then the TAUCP MOD once you're done with the campaign mode.

I do believe though that those 6 extra units don't play well with some mods. My favourite mod (UTASP) didn't play nice with them.

But those units are official. Maybe there should be an option in installer enabling/disabling this content during installation.

Just whipped out my cd's and, yes, the original version still says v3.1 when it's patched to v3.1c.
