Not much new information to add, just some new renders for your eyes. I'd like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that the artistic goal of this mod is to recreate the very "feel" of the original art; not to make a realistic version of Command & Conquer: Red Alert.
Plus 3 others in the ModDB gallery.
So thank you all, and stay tuned! There should be one more batch of renders released between now and when RA3 is out!
If there is any structure or vehicle from Red Alert from which you'd like to see a render in the next update, please specify in the comments for this news post.
I'd like to see a render of the Cruiser battleship or the ore refinery. :)
Great job as always, these renders gives me the most flashbacks than every other mod.
IMO you should seriously consider increasing the detail on your models. Yes, I know that you attempt to recreate the original RA feel, but with these kind of models I fail to see why you need an engine like the RA3 one.
The original RA sprites offer many possibilities for an artist to expand on, "sphere on box" designs like the light tank and the two-color paintjobs without even the slightest decal IMO don´t do justice to the game you are trying to remake.
TW/KW already easily handles main combat units with ~3k polys and 3 1024² textures (and could probably handle more) even on average systems; RA3 should be able to handle even more. Sure I don´t want you to start churning 5k poly models, but please keep in mind that the game gives you quite some leeway for your work.
The allied Helicopter (was it an Apache?) and Construction Yard would be nice to see.
full ACK to golan. you could really put in more detail.
