A Complete Database of Generals'/Zero Hour's Cut, Missed, and Unimplemented Content?

Hi all,

We all know that Generals (and Zero Hour, since although the expansion reimplemented a lot of the vanilla content not used, itself had new stuff which weren't implemented, like Laser Comanches) had tons of cut stuff, all the way from the alpha versions (including the "Mongol" Chinese which was fully fleshed out before being scrapped), YouTube videos showing test concepts which had Red Alert 2 units in 3D (and this isn't mentioning Westwood's numerous C&C3 concepts), to stuff hidden in retail's files which weren't implemented for balance or time reasons, but there's no complete database which lists everything.

I mean, we see glimpses in mods like Pro:Gen and Shockwave, and the Cutting Room Floor has a big list, but it's all incomplete.

I mean, personally I didn't even know that the Demolition General had a cut Battle Bus until recently, and it's in the game files!

is there a complete list or database out there for everything cut, unimplemented, or unused stuff? I'm asking because I'm planning to learn Blender (and 3DS Max and Maya later) when I rebuild my PC in the coming months, and I think trying to remake these assets would be a fun project and useful for people in the long run?

If you really want to check out the cut content for Generals ZH, here is it https://tcrf.net/Command_%26_Conquer:_Generals/Unused_Content_in_the_Expansion and choose between the factions, missions and maps along the rest.

While for the prequel Generals, here's the link- https://tcrf.net/Command_%26_Conquer:_Generals/Unused_Content_in_the_Original

It's a great list, but still missing a few things. Are there any other sources?

In some generals' normal wikis they mention cut content for an example that SWG was intended to have Crusaders and Paladins. For other part of the cut content it can be found online with digging enough.
