JSDF Mod - Japanese faction


Snijboer

Recommended Posts

Hello all!

 

JSDF stands for "Japanse Self Defense Force", this mod will change the allies side to Japan. The goal of this mod is intended for fun!

I thought it was pretty interesting to put Japan in Red alert, and i thought it would be cool to add them!

 

I do want to say that i'm at level: Beginner. So my skills aren't that great at all.

The progress so far i have:

 

- All units do speak japanese.

 

- New sound effects for the tank and minigunner.

 

- A new jeep that needs to look like a Kumatsu LAV

 

- New artillery vehicle.

 

- A ninja that will replace "einstein". The ninja will probably be invisible/cloaked but this is not confirmed yet.

 

- New pillbox bunker that adds 2 machine gunners instead of 1.

 

The plans:

 

- All vehicles and air planes will be replaced to the real tanks/cars/planes from japan.

 

- New cameos for almost every unit.

 

- New rules.ini

 

- Maybe some new soundtracks?

 

Bugs/issues so far i've discovered:

 

- Choosing a color in skirmish will sometimes results a bit different then it supposed to be. The new units etc may look better if it's green/blue, other colors may make it ugly.

This may not be a big issue, and i don't think i will fix it.

Why are all your screenshots so oddly distorted?

 

I took these screenshots with "printscreen" and make those screens bigger using MSpaint.

Haha! Well i have no idea yet if there is going to be any "crazy" unit in this mod, (maybe something with the dog unit)  :roll:

 

Anyways, stay tuned, and hopefully there will be more come!

Ugh. If you're using some version of RA with cnc-ddraw included (which you are; otherwise printscreen wouldn't even work), you can just press ctrl+s to automatically dump a .png screenshot in the game folder. And if you enlarge stuff, ONLY enlarge it to exactly 2x or 3x the size, and make sure the factor is the same for both width and height, or the graphics will get distorted.

 

Really though, non-enlarged screenshots are generally better.

Tried your method, sadly nothing works with ctrl + s, nothing in the game folder at all.

The heli is supposed to be look like bit: OH-1 Kawasaki. (check the attachment)

 

Thanks.

Note: OpenRA has a dead mod TORA -- the Empire of Japan comes to RA with some units of interest.

 

Interesting! Just read through the thread and it had potential. this means that i was not the first one that came with this idea.

Sadly the mod is dead. (Why does it always happens when a good mod dies?)

 

For myself, i hope to finish it. I do saw that other people on that forum were helping each other out.

If anyone here also wants to help with making this MOD, please send me PM.

 

And if you want, i will put credit when ofcourse being used in my mod. This will surely help boosting up the mod!

I like ninja! Hehe... I would like to see how he cut some soldier apart))))) Very interesting mode. I would help but have no time at all =(

 

I appreciate your support!

 

Cutting animations for the ninja would be cool to add! I will look into that when it comes at the right moment! :)
