RA2 MCV?

Saint-X · Grenadier **Joined**: 24 Nov 2009

Does any one have a working/deployable MCV that turns into a constructionyard, but not for yuri, allies or soviets?

I need one for a faction im creating and I cant find any.

I've added seven to my mod, it's not that hard once you know all the relevant code. But as I said elsewhere you need to learn the basics before attempting something so complex. I'd recommended just adding your new units to an existing side until you become more experienced with ini editing.

I already have my own side and new units as wellas buildings and a new flag, the only 3 things that i actually need now are the mvc, how to add a sidebar and im about to add a loadscreen

yes an shp and voxel, unfortunatly i dont have a sketch or concept at the moment, ill work on one now though.

EDIT: the MCV as a vehicle is done, but i'll have to warn you in advance, i'm not much of an artist

The MCV Vehicle is my own design, not very detailed but im not really woried about the detail, the Con Yard however is not mine, i found it while looking around a few days ago and no one ever made it ingame as far as i could tell.

I just peiced this together, it took me about 40 minutes to get it all done perfectly, it's my first attempt at any SHPs other than cameos, would this work for a con yard? after the MCV deployed? also, if this ends up being used for it, i dont know how to do animations and buildups.

Most buildings are rendered from 3D models, which is how such smooth animations are produced.
Also, C/P SHPs are almost never good quality.

It might be actually pretty neat to see that "Monolith CY" ingame...

I know, I was hoping to see it ingame somewhere, figured why not try here.

Who was the Monolith Conyard meant for? It looks Yuri-ish to me.

May be meant for soviets, but if it gets made ingame im going to use it for my custom faction/country, one can only hope though.

while on the subject of MCV's and Con Yards, that building I made, would it be possible to add it to the game as is with no animations or buildups? i have the yuro ore refinery and by the looks of it it has no animatuins, just the buildup.

Animations aren't necessary for a building to work, they're just for aesthetics sake.

Need a placeholder buildup though if you want the structure to be able to be sold. If you don't have something for a buildup( any animation will suffice), you can't sell it.

so all i have to do is just copy and paste the building i want to base it on as a shp and change the suff accordingly, just like i would a regular shp?
