Hi Mortecha, this looks very good! Any chance you can make a Leopard 2A7 in the same way? Tried myself but already struggling with getting the TGAs replaced properly (not even bringing them back into the file). I assume you are not doing the pictures manually but from a 3D Model?

Hey, big man, can we make the Mammoth like the Tiger with the double barreled tanks thank you

Could it be done so that it's a Type 74 JGSDF tank? It has a passable, similar profile. I love that tank and would love to see it on the game.

I suppose that is why modding for this hasn't really taken off yet.

Not really, at this stage it's all just C++ programming and 3d modelling and rendering with Blender. Nothing C&CR specific.

Mortecha u have a link for modding

When I figure out how to combine the turret with the base to make better shadows. Not happy with the current implementation of vanilla.

when Bradley and Abrams both coming to RA

Yep, Bradley and Abrams both coming to RA, though both will have a simpler turrets.

I hope you add both Bradley and Abram to Red Alert :) .

Thank you!! I'm very desesperated with this problem.

Hmmm, I can look into it but I'm happy with keeping it as it is on my end. When I find out I'll let you know.

@Mortecha great mod! I see that you have not renamed the unit "Abrams tank".

I'm renaming the units and with the medium tank I can't find a way. I know for example with the Nod light tank the code is TEXT_UNIT_TITLE_NOD_LIGHT_TANK but with the medium tank it doesn't work. Would you know how to tell me?

I've already done it XD, if you check out the mod's MODDB page you can see some screenshots. All of my new stuff is now going into Techno Scorpion. I have to update it shortly with newer stuff so give it an hour or so

Great work on the all the realistic replacements you've done. FYI if you want to try doing one for the APC, I believe the model it is based upon is the American M113.

Keep up the good work.

Compared to the original medium tank, you may need to adjust the position of the model slightly, because it looks a little weird at some point

The TD one brought over into RA? I'm surprised they didn't just do that in the first place haha. I think the more people making mods the better and it creates a better community:)

I don't know about you, did you see that REH_BlackJack just made an Abrams mod for the RA1 version of Medium Tank, what do you think?

Nnnnnnnnnnnnnice :D Thx4this fast answer :)

Yep, going through all of the units but focusing on TD first. Buildings and infs will also get redone as well.

HEll yeah :D Thanks for this and the other replacer! Do you plan to do this kind of content for RA? *_* Would be so awesome :D

Quite suprisingly, you'll find that the perspectives differ between each of the vanilla units as well.

When compared against other units this is done on purpose as I'm going for a uniform oblique perspective. Eventually once I've completed all the units they will all have the same perspective.

I very much like the model. The render seems to be at a steeper, more overhead angle than the originals, though - it's at a different perspective from the rest of the game, and it's visually a little jarring.

Yes, a good old American Abram Tank for GDI.

Awesome job! I look forward to check out the Nod Light Tank, the Bradley.

Its a pleasure for me to assist you with a "watching eye" for details for every unit/building, if you want. My problem is to bring the details in my head to a Moddingtool... :(

This one will be interesting, I look forward to making it exactly as shown in the FMVs and how you describe.

Regarding the recoil, this can be done, but will be included when I create the required custom .dlls that offer a more complete overhauled experience. For now though I'm just going through and remaking them without adding custom behaviors.

For the Flametank...

-The Fueltanks are normally looks like two inflated cylinder. In the remastered version they look like two eggs.

- the seat of the driver is a littlebit to short in the remastered version

- the ventilation is deeper clos to the seat and merges with the gas tanks towards the rear

- The danger symbols on the gas tank and chassis and the camouflage are missing.

Try your best if you want. I will watch it very carefully.

Very honorable, but it's like playing good computer games ... Good work will be rewarded. :-)

Also, do you know how to create the backfire of the turret/cannon? The units do this in Redalert but not in C&C Dawn.

Agreed with @Reh_Blackjack, the Bradley next, please? :)

I used a couple of different tanks as reference so some of the details of the Trophy APS have made it through hehe.

I'd like to add the coaxial machine gun to all tanks that have them, but as you've mentioned it would be a balance thing, I recall a couple of original RA mods that did this when I started playing with mods way back then.

@KeimFrei
I'll see what I can do about the Flame Tank, as for donations, I haven't even considered them at all. I could probably set up a Patreon or something like that.

Thanks for all the kind words!

I see in the second image that you've made the awesome M1A2 SEP 3 (M1A2-C) with the Trophy APS. It would be so incredibly cool to create a new weapon in the game's code that would function like the real-world APS or a slightly altered C&C universe take on the Trophy APS (like with lasers) to intercept the first few incoming rockets that are fired at the tank with like a 10-20 second "reload" time for the APS before it can intercept incoming missiles again. Adding a coaxial 7.62 mm MG to the tank would also be cool, again with a balanced implementation so it doesn't just continuously fire from a 2000 round magazine and mow down hundreds of Nod infantry attacking it like it can in real-life, which would be too O.P. ;)

Anyway, great work, keep up the fantastic progress!

Yessss!!! This is such a huge improvement, thanks so much! :)

♥♥♥♥ yes thank you

looks cool bruh very nice

So i will donate something if you take a Flametank!

Ok thats one word need to say... Wow! So next what be nice to remodel the Flame Tank like the original (i try it in the past... but i cant do it, because not enough knowledge https://ppmforums.com/topic-51184/remodel-of-the-flametankdevils-tonguepyradon-for-td/ )

This has just been updated with an improved version with details that mimick the vanilla remastered units more closely.

Yep but not just IRL ones though, ones featured in the FMV's and cameos

are all default units going to be replaced for IRL ones?? :)

looks really nice,i love your mods, gj

I'm going to improve the Abrams as I'm still not happy with it then do the Bradly

What unit will you do next?

Hehe, you made a mod, I wouldn't call that a waste of time at all.

Yeah I'm doing that next, it's been requested afew times now:P

Why did i waste time, publishing this when you're already coming around the corner with a model, ten times better.

Excellent work as ever my good man.
Bradley next, pretty please.
