We had a sort of yo-yo time, which is a mix of downtime with slow uptime that seems to be over now. I might post some news in this weekend, but I will not add any section for this site because I've lost my main hard disk and I had no backups of a lot of stuff, including FTP settings for PPM. Also, due to problems in the universities, I might not be active on weekdays as news poster, but, still many things happens daily. Also, I will not resize screenshots to post in the news, because I am still not familiar to the Linux I am using in the moment. So, here's a small round up on things that happened while I was away:


Tiberian Sun:

- NCM Revolution: Triforce has posted recently the new version of the War Factory from the National Civilian Militia for NCM Revolution. It's really a great piece of art that you can view here and comment here.

- PPM: Final Dawn: Well, this was posted by Sk8erkid in 2 news above, the Orca Hunter that generated a lot of comments here.




Red Alert 2:

- RA2: Massive Destruction: Clazzy has submited a new loading screen to the RA2:MD Loading Screen Contest. You can view it here. If you wanna participate of this loading screen to become moderator in the RA2:MD forum and also get mentioned on the credits like ComradeJ, Medalmonkey and Clazzy, you still can submit your loading screen (800x600) there. There are still 2 spots available before the one of them be choosen.

- RA2: Corrupt World: We'd like to thank pft1086 for helping Iceman559 to fix the problem he was having (and mentioned in the news below) in the first mission of RA2:CW campaign. The first mission might be finished soon, we hope.

- RA2: Nuclear Winter: TheDarQ  (also knew as Warbyte) has showed us how the Rebel Barracks will look like. It's an interesting mix of buildings with a nice result. You can check the picture here and the comments here.

- RA2: Broken Alliance: Savage War will be hosting the site of this mod very soon.

- Battle Tech: Fire On The Horizon: IcySon55 has announced here that the interface demo v2.0 of BT will be released soon, stay tuned!


And, for the final news, RedUtils forum might be promoted to something bigger that will include much more C&C tools, including support to Voxel Section Editor (Stucuk Editions), BS SHP Builder, Jasc To CnC Palette Converter and much more...
