Just a quick note to say this is still alive.

I recently (well, a month or so ago now) got a USB hard drive to store my stuff on as my internal one was starting to get a bit full. All my music, drawings, etc were shifted onto this new drive along with my mod stuff.
This obviously means that all the file locations changed. XCC Mod Creator didn't like that ;) That added an extra stage in making any mod changes as I was going to have to correct all that before I could test anything, and I'm a lazy sod so I didn't bother.

I don't have the best filing system for the mod and in some places 'active' files are really mixed in with my workings (pcx in with the shp files and so on) and files that aren't used anymore, so it looked like a bit of a horrible task to put everything back into XCCMC. I've just done this and luckily seem to have got it right first time minus load screens (which I've fixed now).

So I've got the mod together in a way that I can make small changes whenever I feel like it which means there'll at least be some progress with things (I've just got the M.A.D. Tank deploying anim working thanks to a post from blackheartstar for example). I've still got alot of university work to do but now it's pretty much just working on stuff that has to be in for May.
While I've got 3dsmax open doing my I3D assessment I'll probably knock up some buildups and active anims, I was going to hang on for a new PC so I could render alot quicker but that's going to be a while now so I may aswell get on with it.

And I've added/changed/elaborated on a few things in the R3 fixes thread.

And I'd like to add that I'm not going to be advancing from Rock Patch version 1.08SE (as used in ICFRA R2.5) as things just seem to be getting buggier and there haven't been any features added that I require.

Just to elaborate on the Rock Patch stance, I'm not going to test it with anything beyond 1.08SE or use features from versions later than that (unless something big and important comes up) but it should still work with newer versions.
It's been mentioned that you can use the new one without reconnection errors in LAN/online play which is handy.

But will you use some of the new RP features that come with revisions, eg SovietAdvancePower= etc. That could be usefull for the AI.
