Yes, i am back from University. Because of this, and because i now have access to the materials, Red Generals has started to progress again. At this time it is still me working on the mod on my own. To keep you busy while i work away, here's a preview shot.

P.s. Im aiming to show a new screenshot every week up to the end of September (when i go back to uni). There may be more than one each week but that's what im aiming for.

What banshee said. I lost/deleted the email for tratos4 so signed up as tratos (the user tratos4 could be deleted banshee).

Then went to phonic cos i fancied a change of name, didn't like that so changed to primal after being inspired by the C&C3 unit featured in that shot.

no, its primal, its just the font. the 'L' has a flick on the top that makes it look like a 'Z'.

Sure, and the 'P' has a flick on the right side that makes it look like a 'R' #Tongue

Yeah i know, they're too fiddly to do because of the way the images were rendered so i've left them out for now.

dunno, you see the buidling comes rendered as a set of images. Each frame includes both the building AND shadow. To get it to work i would need to cut the shadows out and paste them into extra frames + align them correctly. And besides, they THAT big a deal and i doubt they'll be missed for a while.

i think shadows are that big a deal #Tongue
