Is that possible to make air units as SHP image?

No, that was proposed as a method to have moving rotors, it unfortunately doesn't work.

RA2 has moving propellers and Clazzy this is in the RA2 edtinging forum not TS.

@Gangster: I do not know, but why would you need shp, they are very inferior to vxl.

Just try giving the Harrier Image=DRON and see what happens. I have a feeling it won't work, since it never did in TS and there was no reason to add it for RA2 or YR at all.

Voxel's are shit, actually. the RA1 mammoth looks better then the TS one by far. Titan and wolverine look the BEST out of any of the GDI units.

True, SHPs look nicer since they're 2d raster on a 2d display, but voxels are more versatile. Titans don't rock when a nearby explosion goes off, nor do they lean back when going up hills. (This makes sense for a walker, but not for, say, a tracked vehicle, thus why only mechs, dolphins, and stuff use SHPs.)

Vincent: The Black Hawk uses an HVA anim for its moving rotors but is still a voxel. (It's also a vehicle using the JJ loco; HVA anims don't work properly with aircraft. Sad

)

Spyplane in YR. It has HVA anims but is an AircraftType.
