Scorched Earth MOD for RA2 (non-YR) BETA 3!
I have a few units left to add/make audio for, but I've done enough for updating the feel of things. Ripped sounds from TS, YR, Generals, Zerohour, and some oddballs from RA3/C&C3/C&C4 that were uploaded here. Although I have RA3 and C&C3 I haven't looked into using the ripping tools yet.
One thing that will throw off many YR players, some of the voices have been reallocated to other units, and I'd say a good third of them were also edited.
Several units were updated in the meantime, the French Cruiser and Howitzer (SPG), the British Battleship, Korean Black Eagle, Paradrop plane and some of the civilian voxels too. Many other decorative elements were added, new buildings, wrecks etc.but need to make more maps to take advantage of them.
Still need to fiddle with the Chemical Tank and Scud weaponry, animations suck, not sure what the firepower/warheads should be exactly yet. Both are Iraqi units, but they also get a seismic tank called the Havoc, so they aren't suffering by any means.
Also included is a new 2v2 map called Pangea, and a modified Divided Country now also 2v2. The larger maps like Vacant Lots and Harbour Front are very challenging against 4x AI on Brutal, but you can use the Medium AI setting, it is the same intelligence with less aggressive timing.
Note: if you downloaded previous versions, you have to delete ecache09.mix, the files were merged differently this time.

PS. I'd love some balance feedback, or any commentary on maps/units...
If you crash when loading, set RA2.exe to Win98 Compatibility and run as Administrator in the properties box (right-click)...
Some map previews.
