This is what is planned as far as vehicles go:
-Both teams will have buyable harvesters to harvest for their team.
-Do to reasons beyond my control, which Reborn pointed out, I am now confirming the Recon Humm-vee as a GDI Extra, and not apart of the normal line up.
-Nod WILL have buyable recon bikes. The ones that spawn now are the ones that will be purchasable.
-Recon bike ammo is going to be changed to MRLS ammo.
-GDI MRLS will have rotating turret.
This is what I had planned for vehicles.
Any other changes I will look into and think about.
As far as the Recon Humm-vee's weapon goes, I did that on purpose. I didn't want people to use the Recon humm-vee over the normal humm-vee for obvious reasons. It is for reconnaissance, and reconnaissance only.
Due to its speed, it sometimes get shot into twilight when you ram one of the scorched vehicles, and since I don't want to remove the map decorations, nor do I want to adjust the humm-vees settings, I am making it an Extra so that it won't be a problem when people find themselves floating in a cloud of white in the middle of nowhere in a game.
Now, onto those cliff errors that Reborn pointed out. I don't think those are a BIG problem, so I am going to lay off on trying to fix them at the moment. If it becomes a bigger problem I will go and fix them. (Plus I don't know how I would fix them X_x)

You could make vehicle blockers around the decorations, I think this would fix it. If you make sure the vehicle blocker is outside the vehicle.

At that position just move a bit to the front and rise
EDIT:Guard towers work but turrets don't :/
And you can get stuck on this part of the CY

Ok, seems like depending on your computer, the map gives different errors...
I'll go put vehicle blockers around the buildings to prevent going inside them with vehicles. I will put something to stop you from getting stuck on CY, and for that part of the building you can fly under and go through, that was the first thing that I fixed .
Oh, and for music, I am experimenting with different types. Last version had different music too.

Other fan maps, different script versions, there are lots of things that will cause different errors. Its very annoying lol.

Hmm, Ok I floodfilled the map to get the harvesters to use the waypaths I gave them.. took like an hour and all of my CPU power, but when I test in game, the harvesters find the Tiberium fields all right, and travel back to the refinery fine... the only problem is that they don't use the waypaths that I told them to follow..
And I fear that this throws the economy off because now they are using their own stupid logic, and the Nod harvester's route is a bit shorter than the GDI harvester's route...

Well if you can, make the GDI harvester harvest more tiberium per load at a slower pace! That happend in one map in APB (Pacific Threat) Allied gets 700 credits faster, while Soviets get 1050 credits slower.

Most of your problem I can help with....
Sounds for CY and Silo's should be working if you include ACK's strings.tdb...which can be found with any of his maps, i have a copy if you need it (inlcude it in your zip, give credit to ACK)
just smooth out those cliffs so it isnt black at an angle.
2 silo's should work fine, I used a combonation of scripts for CnC_Last_Stand.. Make sure you dont use a Refinery controller for 1 credit a second...as if the PP goes out, then the Silo is worthless....i forget what scripts i used, but i can find out for you if i can find my LE files on my desktop(on my laptop now)
Also make sure you setup the repair script with JFW_repair_zone...this will keep the mines from disappearing!
Emmiters can be larger and slower moving to help reduce FPS drop...the more it spits out and faster it goes away, the lower the frame rate will be...ex. 5 big puffs is better then 20 puffs in 10 seconds...I made some nice emmiters for Reborn which had lil to no impact on the frame rate....remember size doesnt matter a small emmiter takes up as much frames as a large one.
dont use a dummy object, set your emmiters up as objects (i think been awhile), but proxy them in ren-x and clients will be able to view them.
If your adding a rotating turret, please speed up the arty turret...I did this in my maps to balance the 2 long range untis out....or just make the MRLS a lil more, up to you.
Send me a PM if you'd like me to test the map...I'd love to run thru it...maybe spot any more errors i can help you with.
Looking good, havent seen a good map come out in a while.
for the harvy you can do what saduker suggested, or you can put pathfinding blockers right along the whole path, which will leave the harvy with no choice but to follow it.

Cool cool, some of the things you said I already fixed, but a lot of that is very helpful
Like the emitters, I made a fix for that. What I did was made each puff more opaque, but I reduced the rate from 5.6 to 2.8. I also made a second emitter that has a maximum emittion of 2000 particles. 2000 Particles in my emitter takes about 7-12 min to be fully released. By that time, assuming people play it, battles should be getting hotter, and a better frame rate would be needed. I replaced 6 of the 11 emitters with this 2000 version.
Also about the harvesters, I just played a game and they were making their own paths, but then I wanted to change teams, but keep my money, so I quit and restarted the map... now the harvesters follow the correct paths I gave them..
odd..

You may need VIS... I'd generate it, its easy to setup in Ren-x...and the only pain is running thru looking for errors, but it will pay off in the long run.
im assuming the bases are more then 300 meters(as renegade wont render that far) from each other, so you wont notice much dip in the FPS when running around by yourself.
Once you get 32+ players you'll be wishing you had VIS tho...
Sucks to work with an old engine like this, but it's something that has to be done, nowadays VIS is a thing of the past.

VIS is taking a really... REALLY long time <_<
I started doing the Autogen VIS sectors at 9:30 PM, last night. It is currently 1:30 PM, the NEXT DAY and it is just barly halfway done...
I only ended up making about 300 somewhat sectors.. but when I added the flying sectors, that is what killed me >.<
..also keep in mind I am doing this on a 2.0GHz P4 with 1.25GB of RAM.
..I need an upgrade..
