 * Welcome. It's one of my favourite missions. Will be adding an image for it soon. Wolcott 15:43, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

Hey there!
Glad to have you aboard, Wolcott, your contributions are very welcome (moreso since I can't run RA1 or TD for more than 15 minutes without them freezing up on me). I noticed you had problems with taking screenshots out of FMVs, did you try using XCC Tools to extract the FMVs and watch them? http://images1.wiki.nocookie.net/fallout/images/0/08/Personal_Sig_Image.gif Tagaziel (call!) 21:07, April 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I contribute to real conflicts & battles on the original wiki, so it's really cool I could do the same for a mere game here. I can take in-game screenshots and correct the colours. But I can't do the same for the cutscenes, which is frustrating as there's a good shot of a destroyer in one of the campaign missions I really wanna get. Never heard of XCC Tools but I guess I could give it a try. It seems to say it's for RA2 & TS, wonder if it works for RA1? Wolcott 09:24, April 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, the XCC Tools suite supports all Westwood games up to Zero Hour (Tiberium Wars and Tiberian Twilight aren't, since they rely on different archives). Just open the XCC Mixer and you can start browsing the innards of our favourite C&C games. It even has a .vqa (Westwood FMV format) viewer built in, but I prefer to either extract them and play with the XCC VQA Player or check them online at cnc-movies.com. http://images1.wiki.nocookie.net/fallout/images/0/08/Personal_Sig_Image.gif Tagaziel (call!) 09:31, April 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Guide was kinda complicated but I managed to find the videos. Of course, it's much smaller than I thought. Thanks for telling me about the program. Cheers. Wolcott 10:29, April 13, 2010 (UTC)
