I'm merely using it as the main community that looked into upscaling voxel models. However, the conclusion wasn't that it just wasn't good enough for full size FPS vehicles, just that it really isn't good for any kind of upscale. They're really, really rough, not particularly distant from the C&C/RA1 sprites in terms of details, and the spatial information doesn't make up for it at all. Just training a neural network to acknowledge that the gray things on the sides of this are wheels would be a technical challenge (and a simpler upscaler would just see them as boxes), let alone deducing the finer details that are just lost but would be necessary to at least meet the visual standard set by the first remaster collection. On the other hand give those two pictures to a human modeler and you'll get a good first iteration in like two hours.

I meant using the machine learning stuff on the cutscenes, not the voxels. The latter seems like it’d be a feat.

My collector's edition arrived today! Didn't expect it as the tracking info they sent me on 1st didn't work so I thought it hadn't shipped yet.

Renegade X: Firestorm got delayed into next year, unsurprisingly. Sound like they want to make it bigger than was planned, both literally and figuratively. Most maps are planned to be double the size of their Renegade X counterparts, and they're adding in a form of base-building. Hopefully it doesn't fall victim to feature creep, but time will tell. Apparently, it actually started as a port of TS:Reborn, which is interesting knowing a little about the drama of that mod.

Red Alert 2 turned 20 today. For some reason that makes me feel more old than the original game's anniversary. Probably because I still actually play RA2?

Big Dev Video on Renegade X Firestorm and it's looking pretty drat cool, and quite a departure from its predecessor. Shame I don't much like Renegade's actual shooting... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnX-OL6xpVc I really like that Tick Tank redesign.

The team's willing to take some liberties in what look like very good directions. If you like the series at all this is going to be worth a look.

YoursTruly posted:It was really disappointing the first time I sniped the obelisk with a rush and just watched the gunboats sail impotently back and forth shooting at nothing until a rebuilt obelisk could take them out. It would have been a lot of fun if the gunboats could hit the con yard, power plants, or any of the other production buildings. Of course! When I beat that mission I totally thought it was a bug the gunboats didn't fire, the only way it makes sense is if the gunboats are supposed to die like Nostalgamus said.

Check out the Red Alert Red mod Dust trailer if you haven't already: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFGnljDDC4s Playing through the campaigns as the opposite faction. Missions are obviously going to be modified but it looks pretty cool.

Global Conflagration, an RTS I've been keeping an eye on that's obviously C&C-influenced is doing an open playtest imma check out. Very Generals with a few mechanics lifted from COH it seems. https://store.steampowered.com/app/908770

I did end up playing and it's definitely a solid base, but there's not a lot to it yet, for example both factions play exactly the same. Still, what's there is surprisingly polished and also I won against a guy so 10/10

I feel like Tiberian Dawn, Red Alert 1, and Tiberian Sun needed the remake more. Red Alert 2 would be fine with just a remaster.

Since learning to force-fire disc throwers to throw at a choke point (and the discs roll way further), I forgot every other way to beat the campaign missions. They can't change that part.

I hope they just stick to remastering. I feel like if they remade it they’d probably add a 3D camera and go too far in the “extra” and wacky direction like RA3.

Yeah, I'm not interested in a remake but I definitely want a remaster in the same vein as the one this thread's about.

My guess would be no because I think there's a lot hard-coded into RA3 that can't be changed and I think its resourcing might be one of them.
