I think so... _________________ Tiberian Sun Hidden Shadows Mod Leader and Overlord of PPM. Bow down and repent to your master. And go bake me some cookies!
TS's explosions are actual REAL explosions video'd and put into TS
RA2's explosions are made on an art program of some sort
RA2 explosions arent too bad, but compared to TS's explosions they do (and infact are) cartoony
Possibly youve got this impression from the fact TS's explosions have a translucency value which may make them look less polished. For many of the explosions (not all) i have removed the Translucency from them, as they look far better and believe it or not do not hog the proccessor as much _________________ QUICK_EDIT
ts exposions dont really look REAL if you know hat i mean...they look to pixelated to lokk like someone really blew something up! _________________ That acting was so bad I think you gave me Cancer...
WOW! now where the hell did you find that from?? some of those would come in handy... _________________ That acting was so bad I think you gave me Cancer...
not xplosions
just stuff like the meshes an textures for other stuff

Where's the dirt effect then? When things go boom they kick up dirt. QUICK_EDIT
some explosions in ra2 like the xplosion to the right on FS's screenie look good but some arent so good _________________ Tiberian Eclipse for TW

Which are tottaly un-realistic with faces appearing inside the explosions
btw im not saying RA2 explosions are crap, a couple are used in TSR, but they are not as good nor realistic looking as TS's _________________ QUICK_EDIT
the skull is cool! it looks evil and suits crazy ivans personality. the terrorist is also cool because kini nuke but i suppose it just comes down to wether you like realistic or cartoony. I prefer anime style stuff but they would look stupid with 'boom!' printed on them in agame so the second best is cartoon.
for games that are supposed to be realistic(ish) like MOH i would prefer real stuf. But since RA2 isnt realistic (big huge V3 rockets)... _________________ That acting was so bad I think you gave me Cancer...

Actually RA2 explosions are fairly realistic cept for the cartoonyness, because they have the black smoke in them which would come from melting of plastic, and other stuff, the TS explosions are clean explosions that you would only really see from setting some C4 on an open area of cement. _________________

still think there should be 'realistic' debris like soil and rock (as in sudden strike) _________________ That acting was so bad I think you gave me Cancer...
ts looked way more realistic when a base was attacked. lots of fire, debris flying around, craters and smudges. something that ra2 and generals didnt seem to have. i will add these fx to tiberian twilight evolution _________________ Tiberian Eclipse for TW
------------------- QUICK_EDIT
yeah debris rules!
theres adebris SHP of a guy flying through the air in RA2. i put it in my mod but it hardly ever works.
edit: fixed the smily
the 'razz' smily NEVER works unless you get it off the list!! :p<<see _________________ That acting was so bad I think you gave me Cancer...
I dont promise, but I'll try to combine TS and RA2 anims making them both realistic and with those dirt fx. _________________ in 2009 to Florence. Viva Italia! QUICK_EDIT
