If you are worried about the blade rotation itself, you could substitute the chopper image for the Mammoth Mk. II and see if there is any animation, because I think that it is the only multi-frame hva in Tiberian Sun.

The helicopters in RA2 that have been made to work are actually special hover units, and that is again something that Tiberian Sun does not support. Sorry VPR, but (as much as I hate the words) it can't be done.

thanks everyone, and what i think im going to do is put the Mammoth Mk. II's locomoter instead of the regular orca one.

ill post the results here a bit later.

thanks again
