Cameo

[Conscript 0]

First of all, I'n new, I have no idea if there are already topics like this

 

I'm looking for a cameo for the Psychic Amplifier and Yuri Rocket Launch Pad

Is there anyone who has one of these? I really need help with this.

[Nmenth 291]

Do you want the names "Psychic Amplifier" and "Launch Pad" on them, or did you have something else in mind?

[Conscript 0]

Indeed, Psychic Amplifier, or if it doesn't fit on the image you can take Psychic Amp. as well

And for the Launch Pad the name is ok.

Also, if you build it or select it, it says that the name is 'Unknown Building' What can I do about this to show the normal Rocket Launch Pad?

One more thing, there isn't an actual buildup animation for the Psychic Amplifier, is it somewhere on the internet or (if you are making the cameo's) can you make it for me? I now have the Genetic Mutator buildup animation for it because it looks the best at it.

Thanks already!

Download an editor that can change the CSF file like RA2 StrEdit and create a new name for it, then change UIName to the new entry (remember to open the CSF in the RA2 folder, do not use the one that comes with the editor).

 

I can make low quality cameos in a few minutes and build-up animations in less than 20 minutes. The low quality cameos don't look all that bad, as they are only 60x48 pixels anyway. The build-ups aren't necessarily bad either, but will not act the same way as normal build-ups. If this doesn't bother you, I can make one for the Psychic Amplifier. Full quality build-up animations can take 10-50 times as long and I am not willing to put that much work in for someone else. So its up to you.

A low quality buildup for the Psychic Amplifier is ok.

I dont understand what you mean with low quality buildup.

I have another request,

can you make a buildup animation for the Yuri's Command Center (Building from Lunar mission) [YACOMD] Larger building and the Rocket Launch Pad (the other structure, mission before the Lunar mission) [YAROCK] small building. Only the structure base/sile, not the rocket.

Only the structure base/sile, not the rocket.

Did you want the cameo to only include the base as well?

[Conscript 0]

I dont understand it well, but

If you build it, it just spawns. After that the Rocket comes out, you can see it if you search through the animation files (.MIX) So the base (the lower 'circle') has no build up animation, if the rocket comes out it has. so just lik the tank bunker, only the platform. Do you understand it ?

BTW, it's a buildup animation not a cameo

The cameo I attached here includes the rocket, I was wondering if you wanted the rocket in the cameo or if I should make a new one.

 

Added pictures of the attachments as well...

 

 

This here is the 'phase in' low quality build-up:

Thanks for the phase buildup.

I think you still dont understand me. I dont need a cameo anymore for the Launch Pad, but a buildup animation!

 

Anwser this please, it will make you understand:

-Do you know the soviet mission before you go to the moon?

 

-The Rocket Launch Pad, was the Rocket already deployed/visible to us? (not underground, because it pops up from underground)

 

-The hole where it came out from, that peace it is! Thats the peace where I need a buildup animation for (if possible HQ? its a small building correct me if Im wrong, but isn't that easier?

 

Can you make a cameo for the Command Center too?

I do understand... I was merely asking if the Launch Pad cameo I made for you was acceptable...

 

Here are the Launch Pad and Amplifier build-ups, and Comd cameo.

Nmenth,

I love your cameo work, i'm having problems making my own, although i do know how to insert them, and i was wondering if i put up a pic here of the unit if you could make me a low quality cameo?

[Nmenth 291]

Sure, they only take a couple minutes to do.

[Joshj5hawk 0]

Thanks a lot =]

 

Sorry, this is Napalm's Mastodont from the Yuri's Revenge Argentina website.

Edited February 25, 2010 by Joshj5hawk

[Nmenth 291]

What do you want it named?

 

Until you answer, it shall be called the "Omnikiller Ubertank!"

 

Do you want a veteran version too?

[Doctor Destiny 41]

That looks like Napalm's Mastodont...

[Joshj5hawk 0]

Yes, it is. i edited the post to give credit. I meant to do so earlier but the thought slipped my mind, sorry if i broke any rules =[

 

And the Cameo Looks great =] thanks a lot

 

And a vet unit would be awesome =] i appreciate it

Edited February 25, 2010 by Joshj5hawk

[Doctor Destiny 41]

Napalm has a cameo in his mod that you can use...

[Joshj5hawk 0]

and i have a question about the rules for this tank, how would i set it up so that it would shoot from each of the barrels? like with an alternating effect?

 

oh and i'm only running RA2 not YR. so, i'm not sure if that would make a difference or not?

[Doctor Destiny 41]

Burst only alternates on two spots. The only way to simulate all barrels is a firing animation.

[Joshj5hawk 0]

well, i'm still learnin the rules, and what does what so, would the Apoc tank be a good one to look at the code for this?

[Nmenth 291]

Still didn't give me a name for it... unless you like "Omnikiller Ubertank"...

 

Or Masstodont...

[Joshj5hawk 0]

i actually like Omnikiller Ubertank lol. so that sounds good =]

I do appreciate the work =]

[Nmenth 291]

Very well.

Thank you =]

I'm really really mean it =]

would it be okay to PM you if i need other help or is your inbox always full from others asking for stuff? Cuz i like your ideas of not taking stuff directly from other mods, although i do use some voxels as i'm not very good at that yet, i like your thought on not stealing, borrowing, etc. of rules and ideas.

Thanks again for the help =]

You can PM me if you wish. No, I've never gotten a PM asking for stuff.
