Camoflage patterns my friend, camoflage patterns

The one on the installer screens is a Rhino Tank because westwood fucked up.

Welcome to this week's blog. I was hoping that we'd have a podcast by this time, but due to some unfortunate circumstances that'll have to wait. Anyway, here's some presents from the union. <h3>Sentry Gun Ingame</h3> danpaul88 got the sentry gun rigged up ingame and it looks to be working great! However, rumour has it that the soviets have been extending their sentry gun project to rival the efforts of the french grand cannon. These first images from behind enemy lines show the soviet's new sentry cannon being readied for combat use. (Not an actual structure in AR, but hey who knows what bonus missions we could cook up ) Images below! Model by me, textures by TheBeerinator! <h3>Soviet Welder Bottles</h3> I know that theta123 has been waiting for this one. Here are the propane bottles for the Soviet's Technician's welder. There are two bottles, one for oxygen and one for propane. The texture is by cfehunter and according to him: And here is a render! <h3>Soviet Barracks</h3> dtrngd has gotten the Soviet Barracks into game as a test, all that is left to do is to fix a few mesh errors and ship it off to TheBeerinator for texturising. Check it out! <h3>Team Messages</h3> I've been modelling various things among my university projects. These include remodelling the grizzly tank because the mesh had become rather disfigured. cfehunter is wanting to texture things, so he may move onto the IFV. dtrngd is sizing up the allied power plant for internal design. danpaul88 is continuing his game implementation work by getting the assets that are completed into game. TheBeerinator is waiting for the Soviet Barracks to be completed so that he can get and texture it. Chevy787 is currently unwrapping various things. When easter comes, more time will be available for everyone to make advances. Guy with a wrench has completed texturing Ivan's lighter. Look for that one in the next blog! Poggel is continuing to make props. <h3>OWA's Random Corner</h3> Presenting the Daft Prince of Punk Air! <center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TEK9Fu55m4&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999"></param><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TEK9Fu55m4&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TEK9Fu55m4&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center> <h3>See you next week!</h3> More developments will be there.

Stafford

Welcome to this week's blog. Eggman891 has been over to visit so the blog's a little late this week. But not to matter. We have some killer content this week that will hopefully fill you with joy. <h3>Moddb Results</h3> If you haven't seen already, we made it into the top 5 indie games category on moddb, placing 3rd! I'd just like to take this opportunity to thank all of our fans and supporters who voted for us in the awards! We wouldn't be here if it weren't for you guys supporting us and keeping us inspired to make this game in the best way possible. Thankyou also for being so patient. We know we aren't the fastest working guys out there, but with every model, texture, line of code and map completed, we make a small step towards completion. Keep supporting us and you won't be dissapointed! Thanks again! <h3>Harrier</h3> Guy with a wrench has completed texturing the Harrier! He has been working on this for a good long while now, but his work has payed off! TheBeerinator will be taking the texture and applying a few extra bits and bobs to it before we finish, but yeah, this is it! <h3>Sentry Gun</h3> TheBeerinator blitzed the sentry gun texture recently to bring you, the fans, this! There's not much that I can say about this texture other than I think that TheBeerinator has done a great job! Check out the images below and look forward to ingame shots coming soon! <h3>Team Messages</h3> Eggman came to visit me at Stafford university! We took some pictures to mark the occasion which I have documented in this thread here! dtrngd has just about completed the barracks. I need to get on and finish the statue's weapon! danpaul88 is rigging the soviet sentry gun! TheBeerinator is moving on to texture the new soviet tesla coil. Guy with a wrench is moving on to texture Ivan's dyna-lighter. <h3>OWA's Random Corner</h3> Falcon Cat Paunch vs Printer <center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bc1A37Gwv44&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b"></param><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bc1A37Gwv44&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bc1A37Gwv44&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center> <h3>So yeah...</h3> Tune in next week for another exciting episode of the One Winged Angel show!

You do? My bad.

Welcome to this week's blog. Sorry it's a little late again, my pc was out of commission for most of thursday and fell asleep before I could write it on wednesday Anyway, here we go! <h3>New Tesla Coil!</h3> TheBeerinator asked me for the Tesla Coil to texture a few days ago, so I went and looked at the model before handing it over to him. It was very outdated and poorly modelled in places, so I took the liberty of fixing it up and re-rendering it for you guys before it went off to be textured! Take a look below! We are still debating how the Tesla Trooper's charge effect is going to work. <h3>Phonebox Update</h3> Poggel has nearly completed the british-style phone box now! A phone book, phone and reciever have all been added in for effect. Take a look below! <h3>Happy Birthday C&C Renegade!</h3> This week see's C&C Renegade turn 7 years of age! I'd personally like to commend Renegade for being such a great, unique and amazing game! Without it, we wouldn't be here developing Apocalypse Rising today! So happy birthday to a game that truly deserves rememberance! Check out this thread right here to see what our friends, Fobby and the Renegade X crew, have cooked up for Renegade's 7th! I doubt you'll be dissapointed. <h3>Apocalypse Rising Fans Facebook Group and Fan page!</h3> I've taken the liberty to setup a fan group page to Apocalypse Rising here! Also, one of our other enterprising fans has made a fan page to Apocalypse Rising as well! Find it here! All that can be said is that if you have facebook, join the group and become a listed fan! <h3>Team Messages</h3> I'm off home for the weekend, since it is my friend's and brother's birthdays. cfehunter is coming to Stafford next year dtrngd is away for the week. danpaul88 is doing a fin job on balancing. TheBeerinator is texture hungry. Chevy787 is unwrapping Ivan's Lighter. Guy with a wrench has nearly finished the Harrier texture! Also... GO TACOS! (Clanwar incoming) <h3> OWA's Random Corner</h3> The dinner blaster always has me in hysterics... <center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOJqsxz9xPQ&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOJqsxz9xPQ&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOJqsxz9xPQ&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center> <h3>I'm the invisible man. I'm the invisible man.</h3> INCREDIBLE how you can! See right through me!

(I was jesting, but we may make it garissonable, like the toilet)

Cheers and keep waiting, it'll be here. 599 us dollars. Also, the ammo is put in the major weakpoint room, the ammo store, so putting it anywhere else would be kinda pointless. Nope, but you can use it to turn into Superman!

Welcome to the blog guys and girls! Sorry it's a bit late. <h3>Soviet Barracks Update</h3> dtrngd has completed the interior to the Soviet Barracks! Now I will attempt to finish off the statue before passing it on to TheBeerinator to texture! The exterior underwent a re-shape to accomodate the big sliding doors, It took some fixing, but we managed to do a pretty good job when re-shaping it and making it in-keeping with it's RA2 counterpart. Take a look at the images below! <h3>Phone Box</h3> Brrring Brrring! Somebody answer that phone, but make sure that it doesn't self destruct after it gives it's message! Poggel has been modelling this English phone box for use on our british-themed maps! An international phonebox will also be made to put on other maps that are based in other countries, but this model is truly a treat for you english AR fans out there! Images below! <h3>Soviet Door</h3> dtrngd has finished up modelling the generic Soviet Door. Nothing much to say about this one other than you will be walking through this a lot. <h3>Team Messages</h3> I've found a house for next year and I'm putting the deposit on it tommorrow! Pete is coming to stay tommorrow! dtrngd has an advanced english exam coming up soon, so he's going to practise by watching X-Men Evolution! Awesome! danpaul88 is adapting the vehicles slightly, in accordance with some values that I posted up. No more sliding Flak Track hopefully! <h3>OWA's Random Corner</h3> Dr Robotnik has a gameboy game dedicated to himself! Madness! <center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1yneJSJx3E&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1yneJSJx3E&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1yneJSJx3E&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center> <h3>Unreal 3</h3> Was used in the creation of Lazy Town, fact!

Yup, all will be revealed once we get it working. Podcast will be coming when me and Lord Kane can sort out a time. It's tricky to find the time at the moment.

Welcome to this week's blog. It's friday the 13th, so anything could happen! <h3>Allied Barracks Ingame!</h3> At long last, the Allied Barracks has been completed and rigged up ingame! dtrngd and TheBeerinator have done an astounding job to get things rolling in the buildings department recently, which is awesome. I got goosebumps just walking round this structure ingame, because everything felt right and in place. Here are a bunch of images of the barracks ingame! These screenshots have been taken using the latest build of AR. Pretty cool eh? <h3>IFV Update</h3> I've been doing some work on the new chassis for the IFV, since the old model was fairly inaccurate and riddled with errors. This model is now nearing completion, so unwrapping can begin soon after. <h3>Poggel's Props</h3> Poggel has been busy whipping up some new props for us. These props include a set of swings, a redone set of pipes, some beach umbrellas and the tyre prop, all of which were featured in RA2! Here are some images below! See if you can find the two 3d models in this image <h3>Team Messages</h3> It was my birthday yesterday, so I'm now 19! I went out, got rediculously drunk and staggered back to bed to sleep. When I woke up I was covered in felt tip pen thanks to my uni friends A great night out! cfehunter is coming to visit next friday! danpaul88 released the lastest build of AR to the recently appointed testers. This new build features working sentry guns and the flak trooper amongst other things. dtrngd got the allied barracks ingame and semi-rigged. The only things left to do now are to get some new purchase terminals setup along with the buyable sandbag system and the weakpoints. Great stuff. Guywithawrench is texturing the allied harrier. More on this later. <h3>OWA's Random Corner</h3> Today in the random corner we have some ventertainment, courtesy of Mr T and a ventrilo server. <center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value=" name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center> <h3>This is the end of the road for you my friend...</h3> ...until next week that is.

Thanks dude!

I knew I'd missed something. Tesla Troopers will not be able to damage each other as long as friendly fire remains disabled.

You don't choose. It gives you a random one at the start of each map.

Pretty much.

Welcome to this week's blog folks, I haven't got much to show but I'll do my best. Barrel scraping time! <h3>Apocalypse Rising Mentioned on C&C.com!</h3> Apoc and co. made a newspost over at the Command and Conquer website concerning the recent moddb awards and how several C&C-based projects had made it into the top 100. This newspost featured, Apocalypse Rising as well as A Path Beyond, C&C Reborn and Battle For Dune! Check out the news here. <h3>Shocking News! Lead Producer Cuts Hair!</h3> After a lot of thought, I have had my hair cut to a shorter length. This was a decision that I had to make on my own and have done. So look below for the "before and after" pictures. Before After <h3>Soviet Nuclear Reactor</h3> I couldn't think of anything else to put here, so I decided to re-render the Soviet Nuclear reactor so that it looked half decent and put it in here. Check it out below: <h3>Team Messages</h3> It's my birthday next week, on thursday! I also scored a 1st in one of my games design modules in uni. The hard work payed off! cfehunter is coming to visit me at uni in a few weeks. Eggman891 is also coming to visit me (but not at the same time). dtrngd, danpaul88, Chevy787, TheBeerinator and drunkill were all mentioned on the EA site <h3>OWA's Falcon Punch Corner</h3> CAPTAIN FALCON!!!!!!!! <center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFtw7qW7Vcw&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFtw7qW7Vcw&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFtw7qW7Vcw&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center> Totally epic! <h3>Fin~</h3> Until next week.

Maybe so, but who says that the PPSH that the conscripts use, isn't some new dreamt up version that can keep up with modern assault weaponry. Here at Bluehell Productions we like to kick reasoning and realism to the curb.

I'm making the statue hold an AK-47 to link back to Red Alert 1/APB. There was no Moisin Nagant in RA1 so the link cannot be made that way. In rememberance of the first war, against the Allies, is my personal take on it. Not officially.

If you want to turn off the chat, hit f8 and type "chat" (without the quotes) ingame before hitting Enter. This will disable the chat box if you feel this strongly about it.

Welcome to this week's blog. I don't have much, but here we go! <h3>Soviet Barracks Statue</h3> I scanned in my own face and put it a top this lofty statue. This statue was destined for the Soviet Barracks so it could watch over the battlefield and inspire the troops with it's hard communist exterior. All that is missing is the statue's AK47, which is being modelled ready for next week. Who knows, maybe the statue will appear as a playable bonus character The statue was modelled by me! Now Recruiting! We are now officially recruiting new testers! Chronojam has more details. If you feel like applying, please send Chronojam a PM with the subject "BHP Tester" or something similar so that he can easily spot it in his inbox. Please include your in-game name, how much time you think you can give us, what days/hours are good for you, the specifications of your video card and RAM, and how good you are at the game. It's not really required but it will help if you write down why you want to be a tester or why we should take you on as a tester. Don't forget to vote for us!!! Just another gentle reminder, but AR and APB both made it into the Top 100 at ModDB and need your help for a chance to win Mod of the Year! Actually, we're both nominated for Indie Game Of The Year 2008; AR is in the Upcoming category, and APB is in the Released category. Tell everyone you know and support our projects: Vote for APB and AR at ModDB! Don't forget to register or login if you haven't already prior to voting, to be sure your vote gets counted. The sompetition looks really tough this time, so every vote counts! Please note that because APB and AR are both Indie Games in different categories, you can actually vote for both of them without competing with each other or your favorite mods on other engines! Now that's convenience! <h3>Team Notices</h3> I've been contructing my own 2d, sprite-based, side scrolling fighting game based on the game Mugen. This will allow me to have Solid Snake fight Ronald McDonald and M Bison fight a Metroid. I can even have Homer Simpson fight Peter Griffin. It's so fun! Still no podcast as Lord_Kane and I have been really busy and unable to sort out a time to record this podcast. We aren't sure when we will get the time, so some more planning will have to be done. <h3>OWA's Random Corner</h3> I was going to use a random video that may or may not have the ability to cause a seizure, but then theta123 came to me with this video about Donald Duck and Nazis, which is much cooler. Enjoy. <center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZiRiIpZVF4&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZiRiIpZVF4&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZiRiIpZVF4&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center> <h3>Ciao!</h3> Until next wednesday!

AI Miners will have more functionality, but the AI in w3d-based games has always been fairly dumb, so there's not much we can really do. The War Miner will be able to prioritise targets though! It's not out. Wait a while. 1. Nope. 2. Yes. 3. Look on the website at http://www.apocrising.com They did it in RA2

Where's the love? We'll take a look and see what works best.

I agree. The soundtrack is certainly fancy. I'm unsure, on the the whole disemboweling my good self, we'll have to see how it plays out

what?
