What's up everyone? I haven't been on Revora forums for a long time now...
But i bet there are people who had experience with graphical editing for Red Alert or TD mods. My questions are most likely based on Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro i guess.

First of all, can someone give some tips on how to actually make some RA like buildings? I made some infantry units, and i must say that they look alright, i had to take the legs from the E1 infantry tho

But i can't seem to make some nice looking buildings or tanks. Maybe there is some special way to do so(especially for the structures since they don't have the rotating anims).

Also, can someone give a couple of good links to RA modding communities? Ive searched for a while but haven't found much on Google.

Tnx in advance!

somehow you're pretty late.
There is almost no new experiences on RA1/TD
Now people mod TS/RA2 and some moved to TW.

PPM has some Ra1 modding people left, try asking there.

[Gosho]

There's this site, which is for old games. You're best of asking Nyerguds about this stuff though, as he is the expert in things TD and RA1.

[Romanul]

or ask AG.

or ask AG.

or not

Gosho posted something useful to a thread where users have graphical experience.

[Romanul]

sorry AG i forgot you dont have graphical abilities.

[OmegaBolt]

Ra1 is the same code as TS/Ra2 etc anyway, that isn't the hard part. The only difference is you can't add new units etc.

[Gosho]

Nyerguds can best explain the look of TD and RA1 buildings, as he has the most expirience with them. Most of all, he can help you with the pallette. E-mail him at nyerguds[at]gmail[.]com

Now I realise I pasted the wrong link in my upper post. Go here for the Red Alert TechCenter. It hosts several mods for RA1 and you'd have the best of luck finding help there.

There's also this site, with some graphics - both units and structures made some years ago.
