[RA2] Phal.vxl

Orac

A picture tells a thousand words.
I got bored one day, so I set myself a little challenge: I was going to make a vanilla voxel look less bad without adding or subtracting any parts - entirely a textural (and normal) overhaul.
I chose phal. Because I was an idiot.

It went better than expected.

Looks pretty good to me.

I'm assuming this is TS size?

I just cleaned up the WW voxel, no idea what they planned for it - I don't even know which faction it was meant to belong to #Tongue

It could very well have been early enough in RA2's development that they were still working with TS sizes. Who knows.

It was meant as some kind of Chrono MLRS/Chrono Tank, called the "Phalanx". I believe it was in an early alpha version, when both factions had a hydrofoil and the Soviets had a corkscrew transport and a dual-barreled heavy tank. (There was no Apocalypse tank back then, and the Allies had a Tank Destroyer as their MBT (light tank))

Voxel name is "cphal.vxl", I think.

Yeah, that might be the biggest flaw with the voxel #Tongue

Actually, it's just called phal.vxl, and what you wrote is a common assumption. Nothing suggests it was a chrono unit, however, it never had any visible wheels/tracks which makes one assume it either teleported or hovered around.

The remake looks nice.

Yeah, don't think that's seen in any prerelease screenshots, it's just in the mixes same as the 'Fortress Bomber'.

Same with the Howitzer and Hind. Those actually got coded, but were never seen in any screenshots. At least, to my knowledge neither were.

Hind was, but as this discussion doesn't really belong to the topic, I won't continue further.
