I agree, although I miss 'pawz'.

True, but in those images provided you can clearly see the landing gear doors open, especially on the first image. Which makes me wonder why the artist bothered putting them there.

This gets me all excited.

@Pushwall While we're talking about textures, I feel that the Soviet Airfield's brick colour should match that of the Soviet Refinery. Right now as it is, when placed next to the latter on Guard Duty, it looks... out of place. I dunno, maybe it's just me?

Fair enough. I just thought it worth mentioning, I love the look of Hinds when the landing gear retracts.

{AW} Artillery Barrage firing!

I have a question: Who made the Yak model? Because I love it when the aircraft takes off the wheels go inside the vehicle, so I'm thinking the same should happen with the Hind. In real life it's wheels also go inside. The Longbow does not and I don't believe the Chinook we use does either. I just think the Hind would look a lot better and sexier if this were to happen.

Moar! http://www.mediafire.com/file/849z54iy6kp0fkc/NodGuy's_Crashdumps.zip

That was an excellent read, thank you for the update. I can't wait to try out these changes.

I loved this image at the end of your latest Madness video.

Haha! Yeah I love how they both turn around at the same time.

I know this is supposed to be a screenshot topic but I can't help but post videos! They ran away, but apparently Totd left his car unattended. Some spy fun.

Another entertaining video, Totd.

Whenever I have lag issues with W3D games my ping jumps from around 180 (normal for me) to over 500, 1000, 2000, etc., even if it is just for a moment. That's how I notice I have an issue, when I ping is climbing like crazy.

Also, what I find strange is that when you're having this "issue" your ping remains the same and it doesn't affect you. I'm no expert when it comes to connections and whatnot, but if you are having router issues then wouldn't you be lagging like crazy while this is happening? I know when I network issues with W3D not only are other players moon walking but I'm being warped around like a motherfucker. The only time I know of when you don't lag but everyone else moon walks is when you get the green "connection issue" error message, but everything you do still registers with the server.

Wow, that video is amazing! How come whenever I take a long break from this game (can't help it) all this awesome stuff happens?

Well, to me you are a dirty player because of this. You knowingly play the game even though this unfortunate issue you're experiencing is screwing over your enemies. It's rather annoying when you shoot us after we get behind cover or when you're not even looking at us, e.g., that moment in the Power Plant when I was following you and shooting you in the back yet, if I remember correctly, you took no damage and I took shotgun to the face. With that said I hope you get this resolved soon. There's nothing worse in an online game than playing with lag, especially on this engine.

So he's the RA1 spy but can also steal GDI's blueprints so you can build their buildings? Cool. "For Kane and Divination."

nou You want a war? Let's have a fuckin' war!

Don't worry, I like to mix it up. I just had to use the same spot due to Silverlight disarming my last flare. Too bad he wasn't online when I did this.

Sweet. I need some new sounds and skins to spice things up a bit.

It's pretty different when I look at it, but it could just be my eyes. The left seems brighter and it also forces me to focus more to see where I'm going. For now I'll just submerge right before the screen changes, I know this doesn't grant me underwater protection but it's more difficult to see compared to fully surfaced. @Silverlight, get in here!

I believe an Allied victory needs to happen because that leads to the creation of Black Ops 9 (GDI's precursor), who's mandate is to prevent another world war. If the Soviets win and Nod "tires of them in the late 1990s" then they should've been more powerful than they actually were. Plus, in the ant missions, after the Allies win, your colour is gold with old Soviet units, like the grenadier, mammoth tank, etc.

Now that's a long read! Can't wait to get through it, maybe on my next flight. Regarding the lore, I've always imagined RA2/YR + RA3 as non-canon or simply an alternate reality. Westwood was going to link them together with Tiberian Incursion (Yuri's allegiance was with Nod) but when EA took over that was all canned. Thus, this is my timeline: Red Alert > Tiberian Dawn > Tiberian Sun (all expansions included). The end of Firestorm and the supposed defeat of CABAL is where the story ends, with GDI recovering and rebuilding and Nod, under Slavik, doing what it does best - surviving. Tiberium Wars and Kane's Wrath aren't included because I hated what they done with Nod, didn't like the direction of the story, and most FMVs were terrible. Don't even get me started about Tiberium Twilight. Edit: Forgot about RA2 and RA3 lol. Gameplay for the former, good, the latter, bad. The story and FMVs were too silly, I wish they were more "serious" like RA1. A positive note: Kari Wuhrer as Tanya was HOT and my favorite actress as Tanya.
