Quick question

[367300099 0]

is there a specific thread or topic that deals with adding cameos and voxels to the game? i've created a unit but it has no graphics. i have the voxel ready and cameo created but idk how to input it into the game. i can't find any good tuts on adding vxl or cameo, it just says how to create them. i know how to do that. just don't know how to make it correlate with the game. and i've tried google already.

If you have XCC MIX Editor, insert your new art into an expandmdxx.mix (where xx is a number higher than 02).

 

Cameos (all shps) will work just by lying loose in the RA2 folder, but voxels are more picky. Whether you insert your cameo art or not is up to you.

 

You also need to give them artmd.ini entries. If you are adding a new tank, find the art entry for an existing tank to get the idea of what is required.

ahh now its making sense. but i don't see any expandmd thats higher than 02... there's just 01 and the other expands are 01 and 97 but they don't have "md" at the end.

"md" is for Yuri's Revenge, if you are only using RA2, then leave off the "md".

 

You have to create a new expandxx.mix, don't use the preexisting ones.
