I never said Zlixine made any logical sense, and I never will.
He appears to like this community, but because of his actions no one ever like him here. All he ever does is cause more trouble everywhere he goes, so that no one in their right mind can ever trust him.
If he really has learned he would stop coming here. So really can we delete all traces of Zlixine and ban every account he makes? No, it is not worth it because he keeps coming back with a new account ever thirty seconds, so then what do we do give him a barely tolerated status and only allow him to post in the crap forums where his post will be deleted after a few days and ban all alt accounts, still there could be better solutions. Also make it so anyone on his IP address can not view topics which may contain assets. QUICK_EDIT

Well actually I like this community but for a reason every post I write come to crap forum.

I don't rip anymore this problem was ended years ago + if I ripped anything tell me I bet you can't. QUICK_EDIT
I'm not sure what's your problem with Zlixine. You should remember he is 13 years old and learn ignore him. If you ignore someone's bad activities made for fun, he'll stop to do it, but i'm not sure is this the reason behind Zlixine's activities.

We are giving him a lot of chances, to be honest. And I've seen a lot of younger lads that are way more mature than he is.
Anyway, I don't mind if zlixine posts here, as long as his posts are not disruptive and he only uses the account temp (as a punishment for his previous sins).
By the way, I'm moving this topic back to the Media Hut.
Zilixine you are being given another chance take it and don't waste it again.
This time work to do better and your previous offenses may be completely forgotten.
Remember the basic unwritten social rule of thinking before acting.
To everyone else work with him so he is better, to bring reform to this poor boy, so that one day he is know for a mod far better than what is doing now. Last edited by Isaac_The_Madd on Sun Nov 08, 2015 7:40 pm; edited 1 time in total QUICK_EDIT

Sandbags the size of doors and wooden planks that must have come from a giant sequoia!
To be honest MigEater, this is the kind of attitude this forum/modding "world" that just drives me insane! "The window is 2 pixels to high"... "Some thing is to big/small.".
After being alive on this planet for the years that I have been I can say I have seen many things. Many object's and things come in many different size's, shapes, and colors.
Now lets talk about the sandbags... I guess you have never seen heard of coastal sandbags? Link below is a google image search for them, now as you should be able to see, they can get very big.
Now for the wooden planks, you are not American, so I guess cheap knock off imitation wood doesn't cross your mind much... But this pic should help give ideas on what could be going on...
Now I am not saying its "perfect", or a "masterpiece", I will say it does not look bad.
No one here is is a legendary artist, if they were they wouldn't be modding Ra2 or on these forums.
This notion of just pointing out flaws is really annoying. Give constructive comments or suggestions. And if you feel as though your saying it to many times... do not bother saying anything.
The fact that he is trying is awesome! _________________ MadHQ's Graveyard - Click here!

Not that WW every made buildings with gigantic sheets of plywood or bear sized sandbags...
It's not a bad attempt, but I would have used the stripes on the flat roof as the remap and maybe those pipes at the front, and you should change the sandbag colour because they look like food bags or tent bags right now.
Sandbags the size of doors and wooden planks that must have come from a giant sequoia!
Agreed, no one uses one gigantic board to cover 2 windows across a house, it's entirely unfeasible and none of westwood's or anyone else's SHP's have even close to that big of boards.
And no offense MadHQ, but Mig's comment was right on par, constructive criticism. Military doesn't use coastal seabags to block a trench/safehouse, completely unrealistic as is the boards that no one in the real world makes anymore. The only time you would even see boards that size is from things made in the 14th century and earlier. _________________ "Don't beg for things; Do it yourself or you'll never get anything."

Well actually you would be wrong as well...
MigEaters comment was not "constructive criticism" it was just "criticism". I would know I have received tons of it. He is obviously a new GFX artiest... No one is amazing when they start out.
As for military not using large sand bags, there only one of the few that can use/move them... There one of the few sources who can deal with them.
And as for no one making plywood board that large would by insane! Of course they get made that size still. Think about building siding/flooring, crate's, container's.
Do not think I am defending temp/Zlixine (what ever his name is), I know he causes problems. All I am arguing is that it was a little on the negative side... _________________ MadHQ's Graveyard - Click here!

To clarify, this is true, they do make them that large, but only for specialty projects like boats and such. I'm talking general use, as in plywood, and no one sells them this large as there's no point when you can just joint multiple pieces of smaller, cheaper wood planks together to get the same effect for siding, flooring, crate's, and containers... _________________ "Don't beg for things; Do it yourself or you'll never get anything."

I can not believe I am going to argue with you about this...
I am shocked you do not think sand bagging the parameter of a building to be a special occasion... That last time I checked "War" Is a pretty special thing... But then again I may just be crazy... Time wise it would be a lot faster to drop 100 bags by chopper then 1000 bags by solders... And seeing as this is for a fictional video game the logic holds up better then anything.
I guess you have not been into home depot... Or in america.
They DO sell plywood that big! It is a thing! If you put parts together you loss strength and stability, PLUS it cost extra money/supply to put them together. _________________ MadHQ's Graveyard - Click here!

I'm sorry If I offended anyone, it was meant as sarcastic constructive criticism. Which IMO is a lot friendlier then what some other people around here will post.
While I admit that I could have phrased my words better. I still stand that the sandbags & boards are disproportional in a generalised view.
I personally take great time & effort to make all my work consistent & realistically scaled, I feel more & more that I am alone in such efforts tho. _________________

Agreed.
I just came to the realization that, in RA2, I consider graphics to be generally symbolic. Maybe that is why I place so little emphasis on them. Taken literally, many things do not exactly make alot of sense (why does a line of sandbags drop out from underneath the GI's machine gun when he deploys, and where did he hide that machine gun anyways...)
So much for the prologue.
Now on topic:
Creating plywood panels of this size is probably within the range of human technology, as has been shown, so I wouldn't say that it is unrealistic. There is just a dissonance between what we would expect to see used in barricaded windows (smaller wooden planks nailed across), and what we do see. The house is good enough, if it suits the purpose of the mod, then that's fine.
But Mig Eater's impression is just as valid - it can be explained away by detailing how such large boards are technologically possible. It's nevertheless still an impression that this structure makes and not everyone who sees it will have someone looking over their shoulder to explain it away.
What might help would be if the structure gave some indication of why these giant boards are there, where they came from, and why the troopers inside didn't use smaller boards, of which there were probably plenty available and which would be easier to handle.
Retexturing the panels to the texture of the roof and then removing an equally-sized panel from the roof (revealing wooden beams underneath) in the Occupied frames might be an explanatory detail that you could add.
Also, I think the sandbags look like white beans and might benefit from a less smooth texture! I cannot say anything about the size, though.
I hope this was constructive criticism. _________________

ahhh...
first of all:
I am not an professional 3d maker , I only make this mod as a hobby.
I don't like any criticism "you gonna strike a quote here
Spoiler (click here to read it):
" EVEN if it was "CONSTRUCTIVE" .
I don't appreciate criticism or even gonna respond to it
Spoiler (click here to read it):
"SPECIALLY IF IT WAS SARCASTIC " .
If I was reading your opinions all the day I won't do anything.
to be honest , everyone has opinions and I won't stay all the night listening to the opinions and trying to do something I am not agreed with it or even satisfied with it , while this will satisfy 10 of a 500.
and when these 500 know that I chose the opinion of these 10, they will get angry and ask me why I didn't chose their opinions while every single person of these 500 has a different opinion than the other.
the point is if I did something that I am sure that it will satisfy myself is more relaxing and satisfying than doing that will satisfy 100 of 1000.
So, what you're saying is, you're not accepting criticism and just want to show off your terrible SHPs.
Why the ztype are you here exactly? We tried helping and you constantly slap us in the face, so why don't you just kindly get the ztype out of this community.
And an FYI, Graion is not the only one that's tired of your shit. _________________ "Don't beg for things; Do it yourself or you'll never get anything." QUICK_EDIT

Yes, it is clear and obvious in the bloody english language. But it is also clear and obvious that you want that account to be banned to escape from a punishment (for your previous sins) of being stuck with an account called 'temp'. You won't escape from that punishment. You'll not use zlixine or badbully ever again, for your information. You won't use another account. What we can do is to add limits for your existing account and I am pretty sure that you won't like it. So, please, behave yourself or you may loose the priviledge of having a signature saying 'BAN ME pls', custom avatar and may get even posting and attachment restrictions. QUICK_EDIT

Well, "temp" (or whatever your previous names were), I think I've already said that I personally have no grudge against you. I also don't perceive you as very annoying, nor do I feel trolled by you (halt! I can almost hear several people interject here, gesticulating angrily as they point out that this must be because I am also an annoying idiot!).
So please let me ask you in earnest curiosity what 4SG has already asked:

I like the undamaged/unoccupied civilian skyscraper building. There's too little to see of the barracks yet, so I can't comment on that. _________________

Avoid using the same damage pattern/shape on your buildings. Make them appear a little more organic, random and even subtle. Ultimately, this will make them appear more realistic and not stand out too much from other buildings.
As for the sandbags, make them appear disorganized and uneven. Perhaps some of the bags have fallen over or have been punctured.
Beyond that, keep up with honing your craft. You have a lot of potential...so don't waste it. QUICK_EDIT
note:
if I made the center of the structure and outline in ares custom foundation, then a tank came to attack this structure , the structure won't be damaged at all.
it seems al the units and tank shoot in the middile of the structure, so I selected the 2 center cells of my structure and left the front 2 cells as an outline.
I like the design, but i hate the textures, I could create textures. _________________ If you are a MetalHead (Heavy Metal Fan) and don't want to be a metalhead, Just remove your metal ball from your head. �:p .

I don't want to be harsh, but I think that some people just don't understand the therm "forgiveness".
People change. Do not forget that.
If you have problem with somebody then find reconciliation, not resolution.
If you can't forgive somebody, that means that the problem is in you, not in the person that has changed.
I agree to Mustapha , Hecthor Doomhammer or PaulJongJans Doesn't FORGIVE, I changed since in middle 2015, But i really liked his livestreams and that mod, ROTR. _________________ If you are a MetalHead (Heavy Metal Fan) and don't want to be a metalhead, Just remove your metal ball from your head. �:p .

Poses are all the same, no sharpening or brightness\saturation adjustment, same background on all the cameos within a faction. Units are blurred and it is not easy to distinguish them from the background in some cases. You could get rid of photo background entirely and leave only voxels, thus having a C&C3-ish style of cameos (since the poses are all the same anyway). Needs work I'd say. QUICK_EDIT
Spotlighted cameo SHPs? Sounds awesome. _________________ If you are a MetalHead (Heavy Metal Fan) and don't want to be a metalhead, Just remove your metal ball from your head. �:p .

I never liked Virus Cameo, so i made one which looks a bit like MO'S , but it isn't ripped i made it using the background of the Eplis cameo and the Original Virus icon and some pixel work.
