Blog 180 (03/06/10), Many nice things. Options

Chevy787: Welcome to Blog 180 of our fabulous mod, Apocalypse Rising for Renegade's w3d engine. In this blog, we'll flip your you the other way (straight towards communism). Well at any rate, 180 is half a circle, and it so happens that it is only half a circle because someone liked the number. So, I hope you like the blargh as much as your like the base 60 system or Ptolemy.

The consumer market has left me in despair

I'll be starting off a bit random for the better good of my full intentions
There is a point in life where some say humans are no longer humans as in the sense where they bond together. At some point, they simply become consumers and fuel the market. I'd like to take this time to say that we go over this rules by installing an order of Communism within ourselves. So trust us, we are still part human.

I'll show you now just how old the evil of markets are.

Calendars

Free candy at the end of the month!. No, just more marking evil

Now, stop stuffing thinking about what costume you want to wear and take a look at the calendar. Looks normal, right? EXACTLY, maybe a bit too normal. I will explain this through the use of square units.
We can see it as so: 7 units horizontal (for each day) and 5 vertical (for weeks rows), but there is also space to place the month and days of week which bring the 5 vertical to 7. 7 by 7. Yes, a calendar was designed to take the form of the perfect box to make the marketing thereof easier. Looks, the pope has been planning this for hundred of years.

"How bout we put pictures of half-naked women on it?", The Pope, as you can tell, was quite the foreseeing man.

Fret not on the BHP forums though.

Apocalypse Rising is free. Even if you aren't gonna play it, you should still love us for not tricking you and stealing your money...

or else we'll spin your neck 180 degrees.

Alpha 9 is out for Testers

So Alpha 9 went live a couple of days ago and the new testers are getting acclimatised to their new habitat. To celebrate the release of this new alpha, WallyWood made a video and OWa added some music. Enjoy!

The Return of Cfehunter: New IFV

Yes, we've captured ourself our old cfehunter . He's been working on this fancy piece of machinery for us.

Up for a game of red and blue chess?

Conscript again

We've been battling about his gas mask, and this is what we (OWA has) have for now. Expect mutiple variants of gas masks for release.

This also gives the Soviets a cool factor, a factor that may just win a fashion battle.

The Spy Plane Control Room

"Table, chair and all objects on the table were made by Poggel, everything else by me :P"-dt
The player will be able to use the high-tech spy planes from here. I don't believe we've agreed on a method of implementing them, but they will be implemented.

Terror Drone Control Room

"It uses the same terminals and server as the wf (because well, it's supposed to be the same) but the room is actually different + smaller!"-dt
The player will be able to sit down and control terror drones from here, nifty right?

Eye Candy

We'll finish the eyecandy reel with this awesome video that danpaul has recorded.



Pretty, is it not?

Very nice blog :P

Very nice, loved the conscript.

Blog mirrored over at CnCFPS too: http://www.cncfps.com/forums/index.php?/bl...sing-mega-blog/

Loving the videos. Wallywood's one was great for having excellent use of speech.

Great job with the miners. I don't even want to know how you coded all that Danpaul.

Conscript is certainly shaping up. At least, to what he looks like in the RA2 concepts.

It was incredibly fun taking part in the last harrier scene. Now if only we could get players to do perfect formations when we release AR.

Epic blog.

Looking most excellent. Especially the Harriers. I can't wait to fly one.

The chronoshift effect looks great but probably would look better if it engulfed the entire vehicle.
