Yuri civilian buildings
Well, RA2 included a lot of USA and some Russian buildings. Too many USA, even... (since in Russia we got only Moscow buildings while they have multiple cities)
However, Yuri gets nothing!
Well, maybe Transylvanian castle but that's it.
Poor Yuri, what did he do to you?
Trying to take over the world? Let's not kid ourselves, anyone would do that if they were a genius psychic...
Anyways, here's my attempt at doing some Yuri civilian buildings. Just one for now. The title is plural because I intend to do more.
They are bad and should feel bad, but someone has to do it.
Also, no snow version for now.
This is intended to be used as a CIVILIAN building thus no buildup, etc. It has the frame arrangement to be occupied and also some rubble.
There are shadows, which aren't rendered in the frame I show as preview. The shadows are made in 2D so they are far from perfect.
In this first one, base is 2x5.
If others want to contribute to the "yuri civilian building proyect" they may post their stuff here as well.

A perfect plan by an Evil Genius, huh? _________________ 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 .

Well they're definitely not bad, those are really good buildings actually. Has some room for improvement? of course, but this is a really good start! _________________ I'll throw bananas at your general direction. QUICK_EDIT
it is not that terrible. It can be used in Moon as Yuri city, or in regular cities Yuri conquered (where regular civilian structures are damaged ) _________________ PPM Halloween Season 2021 QUICK_EDIT

Nice work. There is one building similiar to this, used previously by MO2 as radar dome for yuri. Many mods are using it. _________________ PPM Halloween Season 2021 QUICK_EDIT
Think you can make a proper Puppet Master?
Kinda like the one MadHQ and then 4StarGeneral started but never finished?
Prototype/Beta Psychic Dominator I mean. QUICK_EDIT

If you have a link I would like to see it. Well, at least mine is an unbuildable civilian stuff with rubble : P

Is there concept art or beta screenshots to use as reference?
Anyways, I don't think the answer is yes if it requires changed animations. There are *a lot* of superweapons animations and each has many frames. All my graphic work here is 2D. A proper superweapon with all anims needs to be done in 3D (like Harry/Scipion does). If it's just the static frame it could be done easily. _________________ QUICK_EDIT
Could be. You acould use them as tech buildings to capture with engineer, just add the yellow wrench flag as active anim.
Also something I didn't take so much into account at first is that occupiable buildings don't normally have a "Base", only constructable buildings and some tech buildings (such as machine shop or airport).
Some of my buildings here have a base, others don't. The "based" ones could be used as tech buildings. _________________ QUICK_EDIT
Eh, you are wrong. There is absolutely no resize on this thing. Everything appears in the exact size from the original vanilla SHP parts.
What happens with the yellow side things is due to rotation, not resizing. It's not an original cropping problem either as you can see in the top yellow thingy (which is the same on the default orientation).
I used Photoshop CS6 but there is no way to rotate without either semi-transparent pixels or pixelation. Since semi-transparent pixels would look blue, I chose pixelation.
There is no way to avoid that with rotated parts unless you know of a specialized pixel art program that allows alpha-less rotation aproximations. If you do, please tell.
A 2x2 version would be a horrible resize however indeed, since the base is just the 1x1 square.
________________
I do admit even though there was no rezise or any bad crop, those borders look messy, so future buildings will not have rotated outer parts.
Now I made a different better quality, if not entirely inspired, 1x1 building.
I really like these! Quite the excellent job, especially for campaign missions, to decorate Yuri bases (like how bases can have V3 racks, shooting ranges, or derelict tanks or such)! QUICK_EDIT
Guys I think I actually did it! An actual Yuri building prop that looks cool!
In fact, with some work, this could be a real base building. But ain't nobody got time fo' that...
(the parts are from buildups. I reccommend modders to use buildups from official structures for kitbashes, since they have a lot of unique frames that were never used. However, look for the "blue dots" around, because not all of them are properly cropped)
PS: Also PLEASE someone edit that post, the giant building pics are stretching the whole page.
