Not sure if I'm going to release this to the public.

Toms sent me this WIP allied sidebar earlier today, and I spent the day turning it into something awesome.  I've attached a picture of his original work so you can get an idea of how much effort between the two of us went into it.

I've also attached a picture of our soviet sidebar that Blodo and I made back in like 2006, which deserves an update to match the quality of the allied one...

Experimenting with the idea of colored pipes as per Alec's request (blue for a general release, green for PreRA2).

Looks pretty amazing. Was that really in the pre-alpha version of RA2?

The green within the PreRA2 Allied logo is darker.

Otherwise, looks good.

No - we made it from scratch.  Glad you like it!

There's no screenshots of the early Allied sidebar: unlike the Soviet one, the allied one was finalized pretty early on so the screenshots all have the release one in it.

That was just a placeholder image that Toms put in the radar spot.  It is by no means final.

The allies should use the centre one, with perhaps a slight blue tint I think.

Very nice though!

Agreed, something like this would do wonders I think.  Smile

Personally I have a problem with everything being blue. IMO the originals were good in that they had blue/red 'hotspots' with lights and things rather than a general hue.

Prerelease Allieds were always coloured green, therefore it's understandable their sidebar is green.

Same goes for the Soviets, but they stayed red throughout the entire series.

I initially based it on the Alpha UI and it still has some of it's design elements, like the curved repair, sell and tab buttons

We ARE using the center one for allies. :p  The one on the right is our old soviet one, and the one on the left was Toms' original WIP that I polished and completed.

Center one feels somewhat Generals-ish, fitting for the Allies. Much better than the cheezy blueish one we ended up with.

I really like the blue-tinted one Aro made out of the original center one, but it would fit a more futuristic mod (Allies Revenge 2 or Robot Storm) than PreRA2. So we can use that one, too, for other mods.

As for those pictures Tomson posted (taken from a video)...Wow. Now THAT's a Soviet Sidebar. Looks just like the RA3 Soviet sidebar.

I agree. But I doubt that Symphonic will release it.
P.S. Saved the images because Symphonic might do something with them to prevent copying after this Smile
Don't worry, I won't use them without your permission.

It's not just my decision - Toms would have to agree.

An older version of the beta soviet one is available on this forum; search around for it.

As for the allied one, we'll consider it.

We have not decided if you can use it or not.  If we decide to release it, we will let you know.
