i was thinkin about makin a Tesla Trooper for TS like the ones from Red Alert Retaliation for playstation i dont know if a tesla trooper was in any other games but i wanted to know how i could make the tesla troopers weapon a continuous beam of lightning like the laser for NOD but a dif color can sum1 tell me how to do that
like
Primary= what would it be?

im thinkin of using the GDI disk thrower cause that would probabaly look most like a Tesla Trooper any one have any suggestions?

You'd need to create a new weapon to be the primary...

so just clone the laser and find a good lightning graphic... easy as "pi"

Um, actually, having it be same as in RA is impossible. It was removed. You can have a simulated one, but it looks like crap. It sucks.

*RANT START* I not talking about RA2. I'm talking about the original RA. When I say RA I mean RA, not RA2. The box doesn't say "Red Alert 1" on it. If I mean RA2, I'll say "RA2". *RANT END* Well, that was a short rant... Anyway, you said that you wanted to have the same kind of weapon as in RA, which is impossible. That's what I said previously said. If you just want a laser, then say so. You said you wanted a tesla zap. Anyway, there's the obilisk laser, CABAL's laser, and some other laser. Not sure how you'd recolour it, but I think that the colours are defined in an .ini file. If not then they must be hardcoded. Not sure if that answers you're question, but oh well...

Whatever you want it to, as long as it's a laser.
