    Ok so another post, just letting you guys know that this unit is no longer going to be used in the mod (T1 tank) as we are replacing it with a more unique looking model. So feel free to make use of this in your own mods as long as you give adequate credit (as usual).

    PS. It looks better from the standard view distance.
    Not sure if you'll be interested in this @stuart98


    EDIT:
    I'll update this post or make another as soon as @KillerKiwiJuice gets the textures done for the new model.

    So double post again.
    Got around to looking into making a proper render of one of our commanders for the loading screen. Took a good while to get it done, but here it is.

    Made using renderman in Maya 2015. Don't know what software Uber uses so this is the closest I can get, pretty proud of it though. Had to colour correct a bit in Photoshop and it all turned out well.

    EDIT:
    And here's a shot of the loading screen with this com.

    We're just replacing the model. And a mod for a mod is fine I guess.

    Yeah I remember that you said something about having lost the model. Otherwise yeah, it looked awesome.

    Anyway quick update again. Been playing around with some random stuff in the mod today and ended up working out that we can replace the menu background :)

    As usual this is WIP, the background is still being worked on.

    It looks good, but I don't like this font that much. Also I think it is better without the "expansion" word.

    I really like, but I feel that the drawn comm, while looking great, does not really fit. I don't know, it may just be me, but I think that a screenshot of and army of different Legion vehicles heading into battle would look cooler. like the shot is from behind at a slight angle, seeing the army march toward the battle, maybe having the commander in the back looking over them as they leave.

    And with the people about the title, Just have "Legion". Like Planetary Annihilation: Legion. Make the font size of Legion smaller but then spread the letters out to give it the cinematic title affect.

    That's not a com, that's their bot Titan.

    @KillerKiwiJuice The texture on the top of that tank looks like it was designed for a normal map. As we don't have those in PA, might it be better to reflect the texture on the model?

    oh...
    I don't know, while the drawing alone is good, I feel like it does not fit. if feels to "flat". maybe I have to look at vanillas menu again, its been a while.

    Here are some hexagonal unit selection shaders. They are red. They may suit the legion units :)

    Is it not possible to diferenciate ? Maybe relating those to the exact units that the legion uses? Or maybe chabge the function that controls it so you have both vanilla and legion selection icons?
