check here - http://www.cncden.com/gen_units.shtml that's all the units with a brief description, you can also view the structure, upgrades and exp. upgrades from there too.

Also i have begun construction of a temporary website to use as propaganda (and before you all reach for your quotes i know i said that it could wait but i had a change of mind), and if any of you know of a very easy to install news script (or one of you would be able to install a news script to the site (when it's up)) please tell me. Thanks.

RA2:YR probably, because it gives more features, but it should have some RA2 support...

Tratos · General **Joined**: 01 Jan 2003

YR, but as Banshee said it will have RA2 support.

cool, please tell me what you want coz i don't have time to trall the web and find out about generals!

Tratos · General **Joined**: 01 Jan 2003

T34 sam can you begin work on the construction dozer for the usa i've attached a pic below. Technofreak, can you help hellfire with coding the units into the game, you can start with the toxin tractor that i made earlier (it's around here somewhere) if one of you does the art.ini and one does the rules.ini (you decide but i guess it'll be whoever reads this first gets first choice) and i will begin work on the Humvee and ambulance VXL's.

The construction dozer is effecrively the new MCV so code it as one for now, we'll work on the advanced options later.

I'd like to help too, I was bored a while ago anyway so I converted all the USA cameos into RA2 format. Are we doing maps as well?

Tratos · General **Joined**: 01 Jan 2003

np Tratos. It'll be interesting to work on a RA2 mod as well as a TS one.

tecnofreak · Posted: Tue Feb 04, 2003 8:57 pm Post subject:

One Of A Kind i could use your input on making the construction dozer see my new topic

Tratos · General **Joined**: 01 Jan 2003

Clazzy. I've just discovered whilst coding that u missed one of the cameo's for the USA - the Pathfinder.

Also the pilot and the con. dozer, i'll give them a go but your better than me.

hellfire · Commander **Joined**: 09 Jan 2003 **Location**: Canada

K I'm mostly bac online with the exception of Firestorm which is not needed for this so it doesn't really matter. I will finish coding the american unit's tommorow. I already have most of the infantry, just need to work out a few bug's in the air craft's and tank's.

ok, well i've already coded in the rangers (im using the seal image), the pathfinder (currently using the sniper but that should change if we can find someone good at editing infantry SHP's) and the humvee, also Col. Burton but i've run into trouble with him. He was working fine, he had a huge chaingun that ripped through infantry AND TANKS (though not as fast as a rocket but still pretty quickly), but now everytime i try to build him i get the message "Red Alert 2 has encountered an internal error and is unable to continue functioning normally" i haven't got a clue what's gone wrong, i can post the code on here if it helps and someone can check to see if i have anything in there that shouldn't be there.

hellfire · Commander **Joined**: 09 Jan 2003 **Location**: Canada

Only real problem I've had with the infantry was the ranger since it's ability to take over building's is an upgrade but I just gave it straight to him. Wat did u do to get the camoflouge effect to go.

Tratos · General **Joined**: 01 Jan 2003

The ranger doesn't have the camoflage only the pathfinder and Burton, i'm going to use cloaking like in TS only without any sort of uncloak and decloak sound and it only works when they stop moving. I think the code is

Code:

Cloakable=yes

and

Code:

CloakWhenStopped=yes

am i right, anyone?

hellfire · Commander **Joined**: 09 Jan 2003 **Location**: Canada

Ya that wat I'm using. Also I never really gave any of them new image's just codes existing unit's to be like them. I'll start on the tank's after I eat something(Got the day off school again due to snow.)

look's fine beside's the Elite weapon's

hmmmmm.....and yes i know about the elite weapons i'm sorting it but it's quite hard to balance when his chaingun does 600 damage and is anti-infantry normally.

hellfire · Commander **Joined**: 09 Jan 2003 **Location**: Canada

well u could just remove the elite weapon's completely it isn't needed really. Also my work will be delay'ed since I use Tibed for most of my work and it isn't working for some reason.

so is there anything I can take away and work on or am i not required at the moment?

Tratos · General **Joined**: 01 Jan 2003

could you try and code in the refinery for China, it can look like the service depot (soviet) for the moment but the crane should move when the harvester unloads at it. And i'll work on the new harvester voxel.

hellfire · Commander **Joined**: 09 Jan 2003 **Location**: Canada

If u'r really wanting to help u could do the tank's since I'm out at the moment, and can't do it.

Also on a lil off-topic doe's anyone hav an e-mail address for ATI, I need to complain before I break someone form the anger I am experiancing from there BEEPING website, and BEEPING costumer service.
