We have various updates and announcements to make, so take a look below I'll start the ball rolling on a serious note. <h3>RIP Nicholas Worth, our beloved Premier Romanov</h3> Nicholas Worth, 1938 - 2007 From this day forth we dedicate this mod not only to our fans, but also to our departed comrade, Nicholas Worth, who was one of the key influences that is making this mod a reality. Rest In Peace Comrade. <h3>IFVs and a Gun</h3> I have been busy fixing up the IFV ready to show to you all and I must say, I think it has turned out well. I have the Rocket IFV and the Special IFV both pictured below Model by me, original model from the Verge of Armageddon Team. Ric has been working on the Guardian GI's SMG. Below is an early WIP. <h3>Grizzly Darts!</h3> Tester Westy543 has made a video for you to watch illustrating how the edit vehicle physics console command can be used in conjunction with the Grizzly Tank and some well placed ramps. This is a new found game called Grizzly darts. The rules are simple: See how many Grizzly Tanks you can stick to the wall Click on the dartboard for the video. <h3>The competition so far....</h3> The competition is into it's first week and we have 5 entries so far!

I have ploughed through my exams leaving only one subject left, wish me luck! Progress with AR may slow down slightly due to the exam period and the fact that APB may request help from us to get their latest release out on time.

Guest Evil Alex Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 R.I.P. Comrade Romanov, we shall never forget your loyality and nostalgia you gave us for you are the very person who made RA2 RA2!! lol It's true, without him I think RA2 would be very not like it is now! heh heh heh heh! Still, good blog again and a very funny video with ironic scenes, did you mean to do that intentionally with those tanks, was it a bug or just having fun I wonder? :lol: rofl! The voice entries are alright to me btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Westy543 Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 Still, good blog again and a very funny video with ironic scenes, did you mean to do that intentionally with those tanks ...maybe... Well, after noticing their jumping abilities (check prior blogs), I followed up the thought with "what if I cranked the speed up SUPER high!" and tried to launch them cross-map. Well, instead, the cliff thought that snatching my tanks was a better idea. So then I alt tabbed, pulled up fraps, and went from there. Awesome work on the IFV, that's awesomeness! Bye Nicholas Worth, the C&C community will miss you. ...well, maybe not the Ally-supporting part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Evil Alex Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 It is an APB joke. Indeed! The sponser clip was refering to the mine layers of the RA series which I was also refering to as well of which mines would come included with the KILLER MINE LAYER!! LMAO!

Well I know it is an APB joke (hey I have even heard it from cat5 directly in a game over Teamspeak myself) but perhaps you should have expressed yourself a bit more clear you were going to talk about APB as we are in the AR blog section of the forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drunkill Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 You should all know that those tank darts don't come anywhere close to topgears car darts. But it's still good anyway http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IW8JFFbFDo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder why both soviet and allies decided to scrap minelayers, they could be quite effective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EVA-251 Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Another great blog, the Grizzly dart thing was quite funny. And actually, they was a plan for a mine layer type unit in RA2. Mole Minelayer That got scrapped tho. I think it was because WW did not have the time to recode minelayer logic, and it would require a complex system of deploying buildings/vehicles. I dont quite remember how it worked in the few mods that added minelayers. I like the IFVs, they are looking fun to use already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfehunter Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 bascily to do a minelayer in RA2 u'd make the unit place a building, the building has defence logic applied to it. Set fireing distance to 0 so it has to be driven over for it to fire. then set its weapon to a suicide weapon, like the terrorist or demotruck.
