This is quite long, if you're too lazy to read just scroll down and look at the piccys

Fenring (at least I think it was him), sent me a file full of Renegade 2 (Red Alert2) models.
I'm going to 3ds2vxl-ise them (they're already in RA2 I know, but they look quite different). The ones that are actually textured are out of scheme (Allied ones at least, Soviets seem ok) and there are some that aren't skinned at all. I'm currently unsure as to whether i'm gonna be able to skin the un-textured ones, and that's because I haven't tried yet

I've just tried a few ingame and I think they look quite nice, I did try more than i've attached but due to some coding errors (shock-horror) the Vulture (soviet chopper) didn't show and the mirage tank had no turret. Also the Kirov grin works like a headlight or muzzleFX in Generals, so there was large areas of red around the grin and Sovvy logo.
I can't be pestered fixing them tonight, but i'll get round to it at some point.

I'll probably get the ones that are textured out (not a pack, each a seperate download) then have a go at skinning the Apoc (7332 polies) and Prism tank (11894 polies). The high poly counts may make them too much of a bitch to unwrap for me, but at a quick glance it seems perfectly doable.

Grizzly Medium Tank

Rhino Heavy Tank

Prism Laser Tank

they look pretty good

maybe u should reskin the rhino as it doesnt look too good from here but then agian it could be just the pic. but other than that they look good.

the prism tank looks the best even though it has the white on the turret.

they look a bit too detailed, but otherwise awesome

[Mig Eater]

Any chance I could get a hold of the 3ds files, I would like to have a go at converting them too...

[shadowfx78]

i like the prism tank alot

[Beowulf]

Reskin that Grizzly Tank. It looks pretty good. I'd like to use it.

[Supersonic]

they are all good but they seem funny too me :?

[Allied General]

the colours look blended mess? :?

[Mig Eater]

That's the bad normals you get when you use 3ds2vxl

If I could get them I would redo the normals by hand & do a recolour to etc

[Daz]

The above pictures should have changed to show the voxels with the new 'perfect' normals system.
Also, I put the turret on the light tank
Light Tank


Mig, i'll get the files to you soonish.

[Mig Eater]

that looks much better

[Daz]

Yeh, big thanks to bglman.

The models come to 10mb(ish) in a rar, can your email account take that?

[Allied General]

[Mig Eater]

Send it over MSN?

[Daz]

Yeh, I take it you've just added me.

[Mig Eater]

Yer, next time we are both online send them over

Mmm...lovely looking light tank. In fact, the only tank I'm not sure about is the Prism tank, just to go against the grain. Good overall though!
