Welcome to this week's AR blog. We have some special/funny/cool stuff to show you this week so take a look below.
Menu and more
Check out the sexy new menu that I recieved recently from TheKGBspy along with some more footage from the RA2 Vengeance test. Video is epic.
RA2_Iceland
dtrngd has been busy working on another new map in a snow based environment. RA2_Iceland. Here are some WIP shots of the map and a new friend to introduce you to, Sergei the Frostcript :)
"What time is it? A Commie!!!! Oh wait.... it's AR Blog time :)"
Shaders and Cartoons
Although Saberhawk was fired, he has continued to work on a few little things for AR on a freelance basis. This includes our brand new cartoony lighting shader. Check it out below.
Regular Light
Shadered Light
New feature Possiblility
To add in some personality to the mod we may make three differant heads for each character (excluding hero units and units with covered faces) so when you select a character, one of the three differant heads is used. It stops us having clones running around the battlefield.
Here is an example using what is supposed to be a likeness of Coolrock as the Starshina.
Extras Shortlist
BogdanV and danpaul88 are figuring out how to do rebuildable buildings. These will require the use of a separate cash pool for the team to use. This fund will cover automated base repairs and rebuilding minor defence structures and the buying of extra miners. This will encourage people to always keep the team fund stocked up.
CMDBob has made a little mod for APB baesed on Homeworld 2, it is pretty fun for dogfights between the three types of space ship he has put on the map. He requires an unwrapper for a little bit of work though, since some of the textures in the Capital ship's control room are seriously screwed up and the mesh needs unwrapping. Screens here and here.
End
Not much else to show you this week really. Next week we shall have oodles of stuff to show you. Some of which, even I haven't seen before :p
Take care and see you next week.
