"DeployToFire=" i've seen this entry on the TS Deployable Artillery.

- is it applicable on RA2? infantry? units?

"Disguise=Infantry" i've seen this entry on the miscellaneous but still[General] section.

- is this still applicable to RA2?

"CrumbleSound=" this entry exists in the [AudioVisual] section of TS

- is it parsable in RA2?

DeployToFire= yes. used in DZ's artillery

Disguise=Infantry dunno. don't recall seeing it recently

Crumblesound= dunno.. havent seen this one either

spyplane superweapon?
been awhile since I've played RA2, but dont the sovs have one there too? if not I dont see why you couldn't import the YR one..

"Disguise=" is TS code..

how about the spyplane superweapon in RA2? please? is it possible? tnx!!

my pc barely runs YR but in RA2 it works fine and in YR it just keeps on screwing up..

U cant have spy plane in RA2. Try doing a fake SW.

how? plz?!

Disguise= was the default disguise infantry (eg, E1) for the chameleon spy.
Crumblesound= would logically be the sound played when a building is destroyed or damaged below 50%.
BTW, does the camera=yes tag still work on a weapon?

RA2, probably not. Though I'm not sure. It does work in Yuri's.

Since were on the topic of residual TS code and superweapons here's something you lot might find interesting. Its about the

Code:

UseChargeDrain=true

code from the TS firestorm defence, i used it on other RA2 superwepons and came up with some interesting but useless results (useless that is unless yououa n00b who likes to have a completely, and i mean completly, unfair advantage over your enemy)

yeah, DeeZire uses it in his Iron Curtain SW in his mod..

i was hoping if i could add a spy plane SW in RA2 for the Sovs so they could just take a peek at your base like their [U2] plane did in RA1 but it was then just a snapshot, a small area of shroud removed..

Fake SW means a beacon based SW. U have to place a beacon to fire SW. The idea of snapshot in Ra2 is that u place a beacon near an unrevealed area, then fire the SW and some area beside the beacon will b revealed. Its not satisfactory a snapshot SW though.

BTW if u still want this kinda SW i can help u (I didnt do Fake SW in Ra2 b4, did only in YR).
