Following the path paved by pd's famous RockPatch, Ares fixes and enhances the Yuri's Revenge game engine in a variety of ways, allowing modders to expand the game with never before seen custom units.
However, unlike RockPatch and other exe patches, Ares does not modify the game's exe. Instead, Ares uses Syringe to inject its code into the game during runtime, leaving the original game unchanged, thus eliminating the need for backup exes or un-patchers.
The trailer shows some of features which modders can implement in their mods with Ares. Preview has been created using the latest beta of Mental Omega APYR and slightly modded Yuri's Revenge (for features which will not be present in the mod).

NOTE: Certain features in the videos are only available in testing builds for now.
That's a freaking great improvements!
You guys make me proud to be part of C&C. ;_;
Oh if only Westwood could see it now. ;___;
All thanks to Ares developers.
Westwood is dead. It is not here anymore! But on their drives and in their code C&C lives on! Ares is a mod that will pierce the heavens!
Ares is an expansion DLL, not a mod. But other than that, yeah.
Westwood is NOT dead! Westwood lives while each heart of WW Fan is able to beat :D
Silly fool, the Command and Conquer modding community IS Westwood!!
Darn! That's my idea going to use it. I'm so sad. I think you can use custom alphalights.
Why do I all of a sudden have the urge to get back into RA2 modding?
Did you put a drug in that video or something?
A drug called Ares, that's why you have to inject it into your RA2. :P
