These are new models for the old units. There are some weapon and balance tweeks aswell.

The only thing that can describe this is

[Hogo]

OMG Thats Awesome. CNC3 Mammouth with some Super Cool Lasers. Best thing I have ever seen for generals.

[Gamemate]

That is pretty impressive, nice modelling and defiently great texturing

[Daz]

Gamemate, I'm fairly sure it's just the model and skin from the C&C3 art files.

[Gamemate]

I guess you are right, I have not taken a closer look at those...

[Soul]

Pretty cool mammoth you modded there.

[olli]

regardless....it still looks awsome in generals and in game!

and the weapons lok good...especially the re made plasma cannon.

[Pendaelose]

Yes, I started it with the CnC3 Mammoth. Though there are still hours of work invested in it.

[Phoenix911]

dude they look friging awesome.

[Capt.Drake]

It looks cool but I still love the osiris an anubis;(
does this version has an improved PDL? It seamed like that in the vid, to bad that there is no Humvee turett anymore^^

The only difference is the loss of the humvee turret. Its a little weaker vs infantry. The PDL is unchanged.

On the bright side though it will be customizable. Olli pinned me in a corner on TeamSpeak and convinced me the Aux-weapon should be modular..


There will be a seperate primary weapon for each tech tree.

Plasma Cannon
Ion Cannon
Particle Beam
Heavy Microwave Emitter
Heavy Laser

I'm still working on the exact list of componenets, but it will have several options based on the tech tree's you've chosen. examples being:

Pulse laser
Rockets
Microwave emmiter
Plasma torch
Particle streamer

man when is it in the game

and how dou you have make the tires turn around, just animated them?

It will be included with the next version. I'm working hard to make sure the next version has more than double the content of version 2.29

the tracks are mounted on "tires" and it uses the half-track code. When it turns the "tire" to point in the right direction the tracks start spinning as if they were still just pushing. It makes a very convincing efect

[Capt.Drake]

wow sounds cool
You want to double the contend in the next version? Well atleast I got some other games to play in between^^ but in the end I can't wait

[Pendaelose]

You want to double the contend in the next version?

Drake, you've read my plans in the staff section... once I've finished that I think it would be safe to call it a double up.

oh yeah...we forgot about the ion and microwave tech tree. i suppose they both need some units.

all in all it sounds good... and it will definatley be balanced and unique to laser.


the microwave emmiters- they will be for infantry and building disabling?
i think the heavy microwave emmiter should set the ground on fire like the power, and do AOE damage to all ground units caught in its beam, but it should be a relativly small AoE.

The Emmiter beam will be identical to the current Microwave tank/turret and dissable buildings/kill infantry.


For the heavy I was planning almost exactly what you described, an effect like the power (obviously new fx for firning), just much smaller area, about the size of average heavy artillery blast, and does moderate damage to tanks and buildings, while insta-killing infantry. medium range. Its real strength would be in DOT... pinned on a single building it would do good damage over a few seconds.

what about the ion weapons?

will it be a simple small ball of ion rapage or something slightly different?

seeing as the "Ra" will be come an ion artillery wepaon, how are you going to make the ion wepaons on it slightly different?

I had in mind for the "Ra" to fire three small balls of ion rapage. Simple and gratifying

The Heavy tank would fire a single medium ball of ion ownage. More powerful, and more gratifying than a simple ball of rapage.


notably, the Artillery may yield its name "Ra" to the Ion Tank. As there will now be 5 versions of the Heavy tank, and the first 2 are already named Osirus and Anubis I will likely extend the theme with 3 more Egyptian gods. The artillery peices will have thier own names... Norse gods??
