C&C : Generals Evolution : 1 Year Anniversary!

Hey there mates, once again, Gunship here, with new huge media update! Year ago i have decided to revive Generals Evolution mod, but with new life and concept. I've come so far from ideas and first units to what i have now - playable and stable version of game.

Maybe you want to hear the story of how i decided to start new GenEvo? Well, nothing really special, i was just playing around with my personal RA3 mod, started to port some of C&C Generals units ( Battlemaster, Overlord, DragonTank, NukeCannon ) just for fun. Right after that i've got an inspiration strike - what if i start remaking generals from scratch once again, but on Red Alert 3 ( SAGE 2.0 ) engine? Without thinking twice i said to myself and Sgor00 ( which was on steam chat with me ) - "Why the hell not? C&C3 GenEvo is kinda dead, iv'e reached engine limits, team is gone, people want Generals remake, shit i have nothing better to do anyways, let's get this thing moving!".

Yep, that's how it all started, i bet that's how all mods start.

So, let's change the subject! Okay, so, what's new? Oh man, a lot, a lot have been changed/added since RC1 release, it's scary to look at RC1 now for me. Here's the shortest list of changes since RC1 :

1) Changed model for : Crusader, Paladin, Laser Crusader, Avenger, Battlemaster, Overlord, Gattling Tank, Helix, Marauder.
2) Added : Laser Paladin, Katyusha, Helix, Rocket Buggy, Railgun Beast, Raptor, Stealth, Aurora, Mig, Emperor ( Now replacing Overlord ), Ranger, Missile Defender, Rebel, Tunnel Defender, Red Guard, Tank Hunter, ECM Tank, Troop Crawler, Paladin, Sentry Drone, Microwave Tank, A10.
3) Redone and reoptimized all VFX in a mod, from small bullet impacts, to huge and complex explosions.
4) Remade all Collusion Physiscs models ( Debris with physics ), changed shader to make them less affect performance and added details to destruction.
5) Changed 70% of RC1 sounds, to less earraping or nicer, i've also added a ton of new for new stuff.
6) Basic Infantry has been added and recoded.
7) Added Jets.
8) Added Weather effects : Snow, Blizzardy Snow, Desert Storm, Rain, Hard Rain.
9) Added new maps : Snowy Tournament, Desert City, Dead Pastures.
10) Changed/Fixed Maps : Armoured Fury, Tournament Desert, Defcon 6, Green Pastures.
11) Added Combat Responce Mechanic © to all units, they will now taunt and report status.
12) Fixed some civilian assets.
13) Added crap ton of Mapper stuff, i bet noone care anyways.
14) Changed all locomotors of all vehicles in the mod.
15) Added : Artillery Barrage, SCUD Storm, A10 Strike, Nuke, Particle Cannon.
16) Added Propaganda Buff logic.
17) Added Firestorm Logic.
18) Added Toxins Logic.

And other important stuff which i can't remember due to lack of sleep and social life.
