RA2 Tutorials

Here are some tutorials that I found particularly helpfull, and some of my own making.

 

Tutorial Author Description
Making Cameo Files Blade How to make your Cameo look like an Official Red Alert 2 Cameo, and what the correct size, pallet etc are.
Editing Cameo and MIX Files Olaf van der Spek How to extract cameo's from the game, and how to add your cameos to the game/other mix files, including changes to art.ini
Distributing Updated Cameos William Denniss The best way for distributing your new Cameos. The "Editing Cameo Files" shows you how to add your cameo to the cameo.mix file, however that is a large file, and completally overides the origional cameos and therefore not an ideal way of distribution. This tutorial shows you how to release "Update" cameo files, so only your new cameos overide what is already in the game. This tutorial is in Microsoft HTML help format.
Easy Cliff Making Lion & RVMECH This tutorial shows you how to easily and quickly create cliffs for your maps.
Map INI file editing Cannis Rabidus How to make small modificaitons to the rules.ini file in your maps.
THE Red Alert FAQ S. Rudiyanto N. 2000 This is the best Red Alert FAQ it contains heaps of stuff such as _all_ of the short cut keys (usefull: Screenshots are Ctrl-C), stats about the units etc. If you have a nitty gritty question, look here.
