Applying YR Unit Voice Lines to CNCNet Client's RA2 Campaign

[七海芳子]

Yuri's Revenge added a lot of unique voice lines for vehicles and vessels which in vanilla RA2 all have the same generic set. After digging around for a little bit I found this amazing fix by Vector which patches the vanilla RA2 to have the unique voice lines:

However, the patch runs with RA2's executable only and if you try to launch RA2 missions with the CNC Client (in case you want the extra features made possible by phobos and ares in ra2 missions), the actual executable being run is still Yuri's Revenge and the patch doesn't go through. The client, in fact, uses a mix file named ra2mode.mix that dictates how the rules work in ra2 mode/ra2 missions.

I was able to edit the rulesmd.ini inside it to restore the unique voice lines added by Yuri's Revenge. I also found some interesting things such as how in the unmodified ra2 mode chrono miner apparently still has some of its unique voices and the allied mcv somehow uses chrono miner's voices when moving.

If you want the same, just download my patched ra2mode.mix and replace the one in your game folder (make sure to keep a backup!!!) for it to work. I haven't tested my edit extensively so please report any bugs and missing voices, and use at your own risk.
