Well well well. Today we have some treats for you ;) Look below for the awesomeness.
Video full of goodies
This video is a taster of the type of things that will feature in Apocalypse Rising's future releases. This content has kindly been donated by TheKGBSpy, all of this is his work from RA2: Vengeance. These new additions will be put into the newer tests of AR to play around with :D This video also has something special for Chemwarss at the end of it <3
Remember, none of the unit setup, projectiles etc. applies to AR since this is a 3 year old test from RA2 Vengeance, a mod that is donating to us. None of the content in that video was made by the AR team.
Soundtrack
Thanks to NeptuneUK and Soviet_Deso, we now have an entire soundtrack of RA2-style songs to use in AR. Remember in the podcast I talked about having a "Hell March 3" song for the mod? Well, it is the background music for the video that is posted above along with another track called "Human Error". :) Expect to hear more of this wonderful soundtrack over the coming weeks.
Sidebar & Water
danpaul88 recently got the sidebar working ingame, with the help of jonwil. We have commandeered APB's textures until we get our own new shiny set from drunkill :)
Now, thanks to all this great new stuff from TheKGBSpy, we have acquired a brand new water texture that literally screams RA2. Remember RA2 was not realistic at all and the game looked quite cartoony at times. To keep with this theme, I present to you all. RA2 water!
Jobs
Bluehell Productions are in need of Character and Weapon riggers right now. If you can do either, drop me a pm and we'll see if you have the talent we need to get our stuff ingame :)

Soviet_Deso has been busy working on the Chrono Miner texture, more on that later.
I did a podcast yesterday with Lord_Kane, Kushan and Duuude007 from "Tiberian Dawn" for C&C3. I'd just like to take this opportunity to say what a pleasure it is to be able to co-host these podcasts and plug AR at the same time. Any of you who are looking for an awesome mod for C&C3, go check it out as this mod is definitely going to be something special. Check it out here. I'd also like to thank Tocsin for his kind words from their seventh blog, it is really awesome to be where I am right now and I wouldn;t want to be leading any other project right now :)
End
See you next week for more awesome stuff :)
I should be back home on Sunday after a long drive. I'll upload all the videos/screenshots then.
