RA2 Intro Movie
Okay, I'm sure many know of the units which never made it into the final game, these include the Soviet Hydrofoil, Corkscrew Transport, and several other designs.
Well, after watching the intro movie again randomly, I noticed several of these units. I'm sure everyone has seen the Corkscrew transports unloading the apocalypse tanks, so nothing new there. But, if you notice on the scene with the Dreadnoughts are firing their missiles near a bridge. If you look down next to the ships, you can just see a Hydrofoil coming out from behind the other Dreadnoughts, and launching a couple of missiles too.
And finally something else which I'm sure someone has noticed is when the V3's and Apocalypses are driving across the screen, one of the tanks.. or vehicles looks like a Flak Track, but with mini-V3 missiles instead of a flak cannon.
Okay just randomness. But its nice to see them. QUICK_EDIT

the middle one is dreadnought, as far as I know... and the botton ones are V3 Rocket... the top one is really not buildable in game as it has wheels... O.o QUICK_EDIT
if theres concept art ther must be some concept voxels too!!
or at least i know you can get concept TS voxels because i based my tracked buggy in one. _________________ That acting was so bad I think you gave me Cancer...
yeap.. WeeRaby2k made a voxel for the Hydrofoil.. it rocks, i think you can get it at YR Argentina.. at the Voxels section under Naval... i think... _________________ ::TSR Home-Grown Vxl Maker::
They should have left the Sea Scorpian/Wolf as it was in the intro...(the hydrofoil)...and they should have included the MLRS too...(bottem pics)
If you listen to the Sea Scorpian voices you can kinda tell that it got changed... QUICK_EDIT

The one on the top is definetly a corkscrew transport... and was replaced with a hover transport in the game. I can't recall exactly what the hydrofoil concept art looks like, so I can't help you there. And there is definetly something else there besides a v3 rocket launcher, although it seems like a smaller rocket... can't tell what it is. _________________ Formerly active PPM modder (maps, voxels, sprites) and Webmaster of C&C Central in the early 2000's on the Origin/Revora network.

The middle ones do show two hydrofoils.. the big fans give it away. Like I said, use these pictures to find the position in the film. Watch the film and see for yourself.
If you look at these, and some of the concept art you can see the main theme of the soviets.. missiles galor. The apocalyspe's missiles were originally like mini-v3, rather than the missile rack (box) we've come to know. Also, this aa-truck and hydofoil also show the use of these missiles. QUICK_EDIT
WOW! is that actual game art or a mod? The graphics are more like TS than red alert. was the original using ts engines? _________________ That acting was so bad I think you gave me Cancer...
RA2 uses TS engine. Beta usually look better then the release anyway. I'm not sure why but they do. BTW I don't see how the infantary looks better it's just shaded looking. QUICK_EDIT
No RA2 uses an edited TS engine which is toned down, the TS engine is more powerful than RA2's (with deformable terrain for instance)

In WW's case yes, probably partly to do with the fact they want people to be interested in the game and buy it, making screenies with cool (but fake) explosions and features is a way to do this.

Ive seen this pic a million times and thought I had noticed everything, but just recently noticed this.
If u dont know what i mean, look at RA2 infantry SHP and then look at TS infantry SHP (using XCC). Also look ingame RA2 and compare to ingame TS.
Not only are shadows part of the unit in RA2 (and not a seperatation of it) they are incredibly un-detailed. Most are just a shadowed spot UNLIKE this beta screenie..... _________________ QUICK_EDIT

I'm trying to find a fansite kit for TS, I would like some beta screenies... _________________ Formerly active PPM modder (maps, voxels, sprites) and Webmaster of C&C Central in the early 2000's on the Origin/Revora network.

I don't like the pre-release Nuclear Power Plant as much as the release one. But the rest of the stuff looks good. Some of those pre-release buildings are available on some Modding Resource sites.

There are fansite kits for RA2 and Renegade (and Emperor), but I can't find one for TS. When I was poking around the Westwood Public FTP site I didn't find one for TS and my quick Google search turned up nothing. But by all means have a look and if you do find it please tell me. _________________ Check out my FAQ and Modding Info Page.
