Proper textless and glossless RA2/YR cameos
Proper textless cameos restored by using pieces of the cameos from 5 foreign languages.
RA2 cameos won't be released as psd's tho because they will be too big to upload
Note, i mostly only removed the gloss and text, touch-ups only made if i was sure that it looks correct,i wanted to keep them as authentic as possible
YR cameos
Notes on YR cameos
Battle Fortress. WW accidentally moved the cameo one pixel row above, instead of fixing it they copy pasted the bottom pixel row from another cameo.
M.I.G cameo only exists in the English,Chinese and Korean version of YR but all say M.I.G. and the bottom section is corrupt so i had to paint the clouds in myself
Boris. I restored it from the official concept that i tweaked to look exactly like the cameo, its higher quality than the one in YR.
Brute. It's shadow its slightly corrupt
Citadel walls. Refer to the official WW render i added in the psd if you want to restore the remaps
Force shield. In the eng version of the cameo the shield shell was moved compared to the rest languages
G.G.I. The attached official render is from YR beta, the only difference is that the ground had grass
Gattling Cannon.Someone was probably drunk when making that, also the bottom was copy pasted
Genetic Mutator. Same derp as with the Battle Fortress only 2 pixel rows this time.
Industrial Plant. The bottom is corrupt.
Initiate.Restored from the official concept and textless image, it looks a bit different and its higher quality, if you need the original just turn off the layer of the concept image
Psychic reveal. Restored from the original image used for that cameo, if needed can make the original textless cameo as well.
Psychic tower.Someone was drunk again, the cameo has only the tower that's placed on the ground
Dominator. The shadowed side is corrupt
Slave Miner. The bottom ground is seriously corrupt, some text and gloss partially left in, i highlighted the areas where there is still text in blue.
Spy plane. The cameo was moved in every single language, restored only the English version, original render included
Tank bunker. There is still some gloss left in the bottom left corner, that in that corner is another tank bunker
Virus. Restored from the official image and concept
Yuri Transport.If you want to restore the water in the section where its green remember that the pixel mess at the bottom that's the reflection.
Well that's about it, refer to the attached original renders if you want to fix it up or enhance it.

Nice job. Tho at some places, I'd be more happy if the cameos would be better than WW *cough* Soviet MCV *cough* but still, great job! _________________ "If you didn't get angry and mad and frustrated, that means you don't care about the end result, and are doing something wrong." - Greg Kroah-Hartman

well, i dont think they intended people to use their stuff. Not sure if they ever intended people to be able to make their own mods, but wouldn't it be nicer to make your own stuff (tanks, buildings, terrain, ships, jets, icons) instead of being lazy and taking someone else stuff and changing the name?
Everyone these days want a short cut the goal line. No one wants to do their own work to get there. _________________ I am authorized to send out the TMP Studio, PM ME IF YOU WANT IT And check this out, these were sent to me for help with terrain and zdata help along with TMP Studio/Builder
I always thought the reason the RA2 Cameos had text on it was because it was a successor to RA which used the Portrait Style Cameos. Granted TD also had Portrait Style but when they moved onto TS they had changed the style to the more common Profile Style that they also used in Tib Wars,RA3 & Twilight. _________________ ~ Excelsior ~ QUICK_EDIT
Oh neat. I'll be using some of these improved ones. I really like that Tesla Reactor cameo from the extra set. That's really nice. _________________ KGR | AT
