God damn. I've forgotten how fast things can balloon needlessly. And how fast I can clear it away. Thumbs Up

I have to admit though--I've seen a lot of RA2 modifications start up over the years. But let's keep this thread for its intended purpose.

Some maps will be ideal for Mirage Tanks, some wont be. Wont see a Mirage driving through the desert unless some n00b buys one and rushes the Soviet base with one thinking he'll whip some commie ass.

The Ren2 models are over polied and we dont need them. One of our team members had the idea of on desert maps, turning the mirage tank into a cactus.

P.S YSLMuffins, thanks for killing what doesnt need to be read.

The only problem with the mirrage tank is that if someone knows the map well, they can tell its a mirrage tank.

yes if somebody knows a map well they may well see a mirage tank, therefore meaning the driver will have to play smart. hide in an area of undergrowth surrounded by trees. even somebody who knows a map like the back of their hand wont see it at a first glance.

Ever played ren alert? If the maps are set up like that you wouldn't notice a tree missing or in th wrong place. Just make a large map with several trees scattered everywhere.

Mirage tank divers have got to play it cool. If they move while a column of Apocalypses are rampaging through the forest they are stuffed. But if the Apocs bypass them it may give them the chance to launch a sneak attack from behind. Deadly if used by the right person Smile

Yes, but don't you think that it would be a bit "unfair" that way? There should be a way to tell the difference from a normal Tree from a mirage. Something like the stealth effect in renegade, you can't see anything from far away, but when you get up close, it is rather obvious.

i dunno that sounds unfair from the tank drivers point of view, its not like the standard stealth, where the stealth/cloak wont drop as soon as it fires, in this case the mirage tank needs to be imobile to be able to move at all

Look at Core patch2. You cant see the stealth tank at all apart from the dust emmiters from the tracks. This is the same sort of thing we are going to do with the mirage tank. People will be able to spot moving trees easy. The mirage tank fires but then goes quickly back into cloak. We may need to test this out.

when the shot is fired, is it going to have a rocoil? Cause then it will look like a random shaking tree.

I think the best way to do it would make a key that cloaks/uncloaks you, and you cant move or fire while cloaked.
