The time has come once again, the new version of Mental Omega is finally here. Furthering the Red Alert 2 legacy, Mental Omega builds on what was established by Westwood Studios and expands upon the conflict between the Allies, Soviets, and Yuri's Epsilon, while introducing a completely new faction to the play - the Foehn Revolt - complete with its own 3 subfaction, structures, units, support powers and heroes.
Enhanced with the powerful Ares DLL, a project headed by AlexB to push Yuri's Revenge engine to its limits, Mental Omega 3.3 strives to bring new features to the game while maintaining a strong sense of gameplay balance. Mental Omega 3.3 continues where the first Red Alert left off and branches out into an expanded universe with brand new missions for all factions, with missions for the Foehn Revolt planned for the future.
Mental Omega 3.3 requires files from a working installation of Red Alert 2 & Yuri's Revenge patched to 1.001 to be played. Follow the instructions presented here to get the mod to work properly with your game.
This release includes:
- A complete new faction: The Foehn Revolt
- CnCNet5 compatibility for multiplayer services
- 12 new subfactions with their own unique sets of units
- 52 new single player missions, including a campaign for Yuri
- 28 new cooperative maps for 2 players
- new skirmish/multiplayer maps, around 500 total
- new skirmish/multiplayer game modes, 14 total
- updated visuals & audio
- a new soundtrack, unique for each side (separate download)

Easily one of the best, most professional "YR+" mods around. MO is genuinely produced as a "YR expansion", continuing the game's theme and storyline with a whole brand new campaign for all three factions.
While bringing in a few new ideas and a lot of new units for the games houses (without being overcrowded), MO doesn't depart too much from the original games atmosphere - a great mod for anyone who wants 'a little bit more YR'.

summer's gone.....and no summer update.

Things that should be done to Mental Omega, i am sure one of the following is complete:
-Knightframes should have a realistic death voice, not a death sound as they are not cyborgs nor aliens.
-The map '(3) Mystery Town' has a fatal bug, when starting it with a spectator or even playing as a faction, it always crash, it's like something wrong with triggers or similar.
-Should there be a unique scout infantry for foehn instead of using the fairly expensive Lancer? make it for example, a unit that floats on the ground just like the clairvoyant, but with a higher sight than a single dog or spook.
-Also PsiCorps should have a monster infantry equivalent to the hijacker and stalker, If this happened, I recommend re-using the old Reaper from 3.0 to come back, but instead of thermal beam, use a gravity fields, the same deploy weapon from libra but with nerfs to make it weaker than libra.
You should've added some other issues that's still unresolved such as:
1. Map Scanners doesn't work properly on 8 player maps.
2. Ore miners mine ore at the furthest mining area instead of the nearest ones.
3. Allies don't have EPIC units in skirmish. All are in campaign units.
4. Ore Derricks or any Tech buildings at the edge of the map can't be captured.
5. Useless unit promotion.
6. Crashes after an hour of gameplay. Even if you have a gaming computer.
7. Epsilon still use crows as the map scanner instead of a psychic reveal.
8. Blast furnace superweapon is useless unless you build blast trenches which is purely a defensive weapon. Who even builds this which will also kill your unit? Even flying units can take damage on something that is like a WALL.
1. didn't know there was that kind of issue.
2. Sometimes but not always i notice this, especially on large maps.
3. I already requested for:
Name: Robomega Hover Supertank
Cost: $1000
Hitpoints: 'same as a single Mastermind'
Weapons: Heavy Laser Supergun (stronger than tanya's, and also the weapon should be good vs structures and infantry only, bad vs vehicles) / Cluster Flashbangs (stronger than the bulldog's, can split to 8 cluster flashbangs)
Hover: yes
Sub-Faction: United States (Allied)
Build Limit: 3 (the only epic unit with build limit of 3, it's not really strong, but all of the 3 are supercombo, they should also have firepower and speed buff just like the athena cannon)
4. I know but i forgot to request about it
5. Just like Dogs/Spooks/Trackers (obsolete foehn scout, armed and uses a wheel to move)
6. It happened to me since 3.0, but never happened to me since 3.3.1
7. Epsilon has the only scout support power that is selectable and moveable which is bad for AI
8. It shouldn't be a superweapon, it should be a support power, takes the place, then the nanofiber loom should be the superweapon, replacing/reversing the furnace's role.
considering the longer than usual development time, is there a chance that 3.3.4 will feature more missions?
Uhh yeah of course
I think, maybe not me alone, instant shelter should be replaced by something.. right? an Underground Tunnel could be nice, Cost, Recharge Time and Requires Power could be the same as the shelter, and i think the tunnel should be a building delivery too, maybe instead of placing them anywhere, you need to make the field bureau use the same radius as the experimental warshop for the chronolift to use for the tunnel deployment.
At least mental omega should use the tunnel feature, Actually the mod is using almost all of Ares features at least once.
guys is there anyway to get rule.ini for MO 3.3.3? also is there anyway to increase zoom (reduce resolution) without losing wide screen support? the units looks way small in my laptop :/
thanks alot for this amazing mod
wow negative karma only for asking technical question! some fanatic fan kids here...
so none of devs are going to answer me?
Some people just straight up give negative karma because they feel like it. As for the rule.ini, an actual file I don't think you can unless you have the right permissions and the know how. I used Notepad ++ to see the contents inside and know which superweapon (support powers, they're called superweapons anyways) is called if I want to edit stuff in mapping.
