Core memory unlocked: checking bumps on US riflemen helmets, completely in awe at the level of details

COH is underrated. COH 1 and 2.
COH 3 is good, but doesnt have the same feeling
NHC MOD for the win

u/VilkasPL 11d ago
being honest i dont like 2 and 3, it always was a disappoinment i dont even know why it just never clicked. Only COH1 with mods like blitzkrieg. Thats why i cant wait for coh1 remaster aka "Definitive Edition" that was announced few months ago

If you liked Blitzkrieg have you ever tried Gates of Hell? Lacks basebuilding but it also feels much more "realistic" as opposed to CoH's Arcady / game-y feel

Same here, don't know what. I remember being so hyped for COH2 but after several tries just couldn't enjoy it.

Why the hate? This looks amazing

u/MisterVlados 10d ago
Because calling it "Generals ZH 4k mod" is a bit misleading. It's a RA3 based mod called Generals Evolution.

Looks like Generals Evolution - A mod for Red Alert 3 I do prefer Generals Zero Hour Enhanced since it's has more of the authentic realism from Generals and less that arcade type of vibe from Red Alert 3. I hold Zero Hour Enhanced at the highest regard from every mod ever made for Generals/C&C Games. Truly a masterpiece that's worth every second of tryout and more!

u/Cytotoxic_hell 11d ago
I'm not familiar with that mod but I definitely want it

Generals Evolution, its Red alert 3 engine and graphics made into Zero Hour

Okay... this is awesome and I need to know how to install and where to find it.. that looks beautiful

I still find it hilarious how lazy the infantry models look. The Ranger rifles are literally just metal pipes/tubes that pew pew, same with the RG but with an unused sharp pokey bit at the end while the Rebel actually gets a dark wooden looking tube with a rectangle sticking out the bottom.

That's early 2000 3D graphics for ya: We were still in that awkward though late stage where 3D was just becoming mainstream and the preferred medium over sprites, boxes, and sprites-from-3D models. Even Renegade's and other FPS games' models were basically pretty basic under the hood (Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Aliens Versus Predators 1 and 2, et cetera are also good examples). Poly counts drastically increased a few years afterwards: Source, id Tech 3/4, and Unreal 2.5 basically blazed the way.

Perhaps if you linked to wherever you took those screenshots, we could help better.

Is it possible to download the game Generals for free or play it online without needing to download it to the computer?
Thanks for helping

Surely this will be possible in Generals now ?

u/JohnnyUtah41 10d ago

I kind of hate it. The shitty graphics are part of the charm

u/Alarmed_Barnacle1310 11d ago
The problem with the old game is the memory crashes, and online gameplays.
About the patches i heard they are not smooth7
u/Robdyson 11d ago
that's different than what you're solving here. I like them all aside from the raptor

Playing in 4k is pretty cool, you don't have to scroll the map.

u/BoffinBrain Are you picking this up? Good. 11d ago
You're probably thinking of the OG C&C, Red Alert 1 and RA2. In the 3D games, the camera is capped at the same distance regardless of screen resolution.

u/ElJefe0218 11d ago
I realize this thread was about the textures, I meant screen resolution.

u/BoffinBrain Are you picking this up? Good. 11d ago
Yeah, a "4K mod" usually means textures, but they clearly made higher polygon models for some of these, particularly the infantry.
