Ares Extras

I was messing around a while ago and created an amphibious Battle Fortress using Ares water voxel tags so I was thinking of releasing it. However, I was just a simple edit so I decided to put together a little pack of:

- Amphibious Battle Fortress Voxels
- A Correct-Palette EMP effect Animation.
- The Fixed Bombcurs.shp as said in the title. (a required change for Ares)
- A set of side specific insignias.
- A Sonar Pulse Icon (just Red Alert 1's but with RA2 writing).
- As well as the TS digging sound and animation (converted).

All of them have a guide to inclusion in a mod.

Next up, an amphibious Chrono Miner. Ok, maybe that might be a bit much. Very Happy

Anyway, here are some medic and mechanic insignias:

About insignias.png:
-For soviets,I wonder if it will be possible to tell apart that well the insignias with such a little difference (those littles points above the star).
-For Yuri,isn't it usually gold > silver > bronze,rather than gold > bronze > silver like you did.Or maybe you had a different logic in mind?

Does Ares add 3 veterancy levels as opposed to two then ?

No, it is still 2 veterancy levels. Just lets you put an insignia when they aren't promoted.

As far as soviets is concerned, I tried many things and this way was the best was I could see. Besides, they are as a big as a health point so it shouldn't be that hard to see them. I did try things like coloring the stars points, but since the star is mostly gold to start out with, there is not much I can do.

Now Yuri, it goes from silver to bronze to gold since Yuri's symbol is silver by standard. That is just the way his sign is, so it is more like regular symbol to bronze to gold. There is no intended silver.

Quick question, what palette is alpha light in?

I'm thinking of converting the alpha light, and maybe some more stuff.

There is no specific palette for it. It uses the number value of each colour to determine the "lightness". #127 doesn't change the lighting, while 128-255 gradually brighten it. If you want the alphalight to darken, you need to use numbers below #127, and save with compression 1.

A palette was made for it (to make it easier to paint alpha lights) at one point, iirc.
