0 Project Phantom Development Update Summer 2025
Posted by Starkku on June 15, 2025 in Project Phantom News
Development is still under way for next version of Project Phantom, numbered 1.1, following the initial release from last September. It was initially scheduled to be released during last year but several factors have unfortunately contributed to it being delayed significantly beyond the initial planned release window. Below is some more info on the changes and additions that will be introduced in this version.
Artwork Updates
Some units and buildings, including Subjugator, Coalition Laser Cannon and Phantom Research Lab have received a facelift.
In addition those with keen eyes can notice some adjustments to offensive support powers in the preview for Research Lab, they now all have same warning animation (with some color differences) and sound.
There has also been some updated animations, particularly for muzzle effects on gun and cannon weapons of all types.
Experimental Unit Improvements
There have been balance changes to almost all experimental units as well as their associated support powers. Below is a sneak peek at some of the changes.
Experimental tech unlock options also no longer benefit from multiple factory build time bonus and can only be placed within fixed distance from a friendly Construction Yard.
Other Gameplay Additions & Changes
Jet Changes
Jet aircraft are now allowed to use waypoint and guard mode. Not all jets will be able to automatically pick targets in waypoint or guard mode, but those that do will scan nearby area automatically for them when in either. Unlike other types of units, guard mode is not persistent on aircraft, meaning that once assigned, the unit will return to idle mode upon returning to airfield or if there was no suitable target found when assigned to guard mode - this may change in future.
Jets also no longer self-repair while in air but repair at rate corresponding to rookie-level self-repairing on vehicles for free when docked.
Some may also notice there have been some additions to the factions' airforce.
Tank Drop and Usurper Shock Tank
Tank Drop no longer drops Oppressor Tanks but a new Usurper Shock Tank with electricity-based weapon much like Shock Troopers or Shock Pylon. Usurper is more effective against infantry than Oppressor but performs considerably worse against buildings and base defenses - making Tank Drop less effective as a surprise base killing tool but potentially more effective for anti-unit harassment. Additionally all Dominion tier 1 vehicles - that is Oppressor, Tyrant and Usurper now share the destruction horde firepower bonus that was previously exclusive to Oppressor and the effect duration now replenishes for all stacks when new stacks are added to the effect. Usurper also gains a weapon range bonus near friendly Shock Pylons.
Usurper is not buildable except if reverse-engineered in Scavenger mode.
Mercenary Faction Additions & Improvements
Fist of Titans arsenal has had bit of a cleanup and facelift. Mercenary Motor Squad and Deliver Crocodile Tank/Vulture Copter have now been merged into one support called Mercenary Strike Force and Mercenary Troops now delivers some of the Fist of Titans infantry periodically at the Outpost free of charge. Savage is no longer trainable at the outpost due to being a mostly redundant pick over the main factions' basic infantry, but in exchange some of the vehicles have acquired new abilities.
Crimson Crown now uses similar Experimental Unit system as the main factions, offering two choices - the existing Blackout Signal Jammer that has been improved and the new Desecrator MLRS crowd control weapon. Both of these choices also unlock a new support power to use alongside the unit.
In addition, Crimson Contract has been split into two support powers with fixed unit loadouts, with the second one requiring a T3 laboratory and some Crimson Crown units have received tweaks to make them bit more interesting to use.
Excelsus Research Lab will now unlock a new buildable unit in form of Sentinel Utility Truck if a T3 laboratory is also owned. Sentinel can repair damaged vehicles & structures as well as boost armour strength of nearby base defenses and detect cloaked enemies.
In addition, Excelsus Research Lab itself can now be found on more maps.
Some general misc. improvements & balance changes
- Transports can now load in units without them having to queue up first - they will however still need to exit one by one.
- Credits generation rate for T4 structures and Oil Derricks has been reduced from 100 to 75 credits per 10 in-game seconds.
- Scout infantry attacks have been normalized and will now deal damage on same frame of their attack animations.
- Map reveal support powers now temporarily fully decloak enemies that are in the area of their activation.
Game Options Additions
There are now several new game options that can control availability of certain features in battle such as garrisons, tech defenses and support powers / superweapons.
Merc Alliance is a new 'fun'-type game option that enables players to pick a mercenary faction to choose at game start that permanently unlocks their technology for player's use for duration of the game - this choice cannot be changed later. Any support powers that would deliver units at the mercenary HQ building will instead deliver them at coordinates considered the player's base center.
New Maps
Mortarmouth Challenge pits players against Dominion commanders fielding large amount of artillery weapons, ranging from tech defenses that cannot be recaptured by players (including the brand new Artillery Bastion) to Marauders and Brimstones and even the fearsome Ironblight.
In addition, there are new skirmish/multiplayer maps.
Final Words
There is currently no set release date for the update, however it will be revealed once it is more certain that the planned release can be delivered in that time window. Currently, this is a rough outline of what you can expect. Many of the new features were enabled by either Phobos Engine Extension or a new version of the CnCNet spawner DLL using same technology as Phobos does.
- A large number of balance tweaks and bugfixes
- Changes to experimental units, to balance out more outstanding ones and make the less interesting ones more desirable choices
- Some new units and/or support powers across the factions, including new jet aircraft for all factions
- QoL improvements like improved jet aircraft behaviour, faster transport loading etc.
- Overhaul of mercenary faction arsenals & bonuses
- New and overhauled game lobby options
- 1 new Challenge map
- 12 new Standard skirmish maps.
- Updated version of World Altering Editor included, with bugfixes and new features
- Support for multiplayer save / loading (currently only one multiplayer game session is preserved at a time, may change in future)
- Built-in custom mission support in game client
Yes, you read that last one right.
Expect to hear and read more about the upcoming update in the near future.

0 2024 Status Update
Posted by Starkku on April 11, 2024 in Project Phantom News
It has been a while since I've last posted a formal update for this mod. Regardless, work on this project has continued even during silence and keeps going relatively strong, and I do have few things to share.
Website
Project Phantom website has been updated with a new layout. Many of the pages are still under construction, and I'll be sure to keep everyone updated when they go live.
Discord
For those who may have missed it, Project Phantom does have an official Discord server that can be used for discussing the modification, receiving updates regarding it first in the line and eventually it would hopefully serve as a multiplayer hub as well.
Showcases
A while back I posted an article about various UI / UX improvements in Project Phantom, be sure to check it out if you already have not.
There's also a new showcase video, showing off some units & buildings in Project Phantom. It can also be viewed on ModDB.
As mentioned prior, development has been going on relatively strong, regardless of occassional pauses and challenges. With that in mind, I have the following announcement to make.
Early access version of Project Phantom will be released during Summer 2024
Exact release date will be made known closer to launch
So what will be in this first release?
Good question. Right now, we are looking at the following set of features.
- Three new factions - Western Coalition, Eurasian Dominion and Phantom Imperative, with complete arsenals full of new units, buildings and support powers (albeit many buildings will use graphics that can be deemed as 'placeholders').
- Three 'mercenary factions' - Fist of Titans, Crimson Crown and Excelsus Group, that have capturable buildings that provide various support powers and units to players who capture them, alongside the classic set of neutral tech buildings including capturable base defences.
- A large number of new map props and other miscellaneous buildings.
- Three reworked terrain tile theaters, Temperate, Tundra & Desert, with significantly expanded tilesets from the original game, including fully integrated urban tilesets and a basic interior tileset.
- Around 160 standard skirmish/multiplayer maps, some old and some new.
- Island Combat game mode, which is constrained to maps with water-locked islands.
- Scavengers game mode, where you start with a Mobile War Factory and are required to collect powerup crates for units and funds - your factory can reverse-engineer any vehicles found (including technology trucks for aerial vehicles) to unlock them as buyable units.
- One scenario for Hold the Line game mode, where up to 4 players (human or AI) are pitted against waves of AI-controlled enemies that scale based on number players in game, with objective to protect a critical structure from the said enemies.
A preview of Crimson Crisis scenario, where players are tasked protecting an Energy Research Lab against waves of Crimson Crown units.
- Challenges game mode, where 2 players (human or AI) are pitted against three AI-controlled enemies in specific scenarios that have unique modifiers in play and odds stacked against the players. Initially Challenges mode is going to come with three scenarios, one against each of the factions.
A preview of one of the Challenges, called Thunderhill Challenge where players are challenged by the nigh-impenetrable defenses of a W.A.R.D research base.
- A single Cooperative mission, testing the waters out, where two Coalition commanders are tasked with eliminating a Dominion mining outpost.
Preview of co-op mission Motherlode, where a small squad of Coalition forces is sent on an infiltration and elimination mission to a Dominion mining base.
- Various quality of life, bugfix and other engine improvements, courtesy of Ares Expansion DLL and Phobos Engine Extension.
- Full integration with the CnCNet client, allowing easy access to multiplayer games and easy download of mod updates.
- Bundled installation of two map editors, a version of the legacy FinalAlert 2 map editor as well as Rampastring's modern World Altering Editor.
- Installer software with compatibility with all releases of Yuri's Revenge.
I hope to have some more news to share about Project Phantom's development and the upcoming early access release in near future, but for now, I'm out.

0 Contra 009 FINAL PATCH 3 released!
Posted by predator_bg on January 1, 2021 in Contra News (eng)
Happy New Year everyone!
Thank you for voting once again in this year's MOTY!
We made it to honorable mentions, and that's a good sign that people still love and support our work.
As promised, Patch 3 is here!!!!
We've worked hard, especially this month, to make even more content. As usual we worked on all aspects, visuals, balances, voices, bug fixes, everything to improve previous version and to give something new, as we heading towards our final goal = Contra which will have everything in its best!
There are many people who are working with us freely, artists, testers, voice actors, mappers. They are all respectively listed and credited in Credits!
With every update, we also share sneak peak of new stuff. We will respect tradition!
USA Cybernetic Lancer Droid model was not well received by many people as it didn't fit rank 1 drone army. Lancer benefits from AP Bullets upgrade (+25% damage).
We started with GLA structures in past, adding extra objects to each side to make structures even more unique. We continued with all other factions too. You will notice them in game even more.
Please, feel free to use this download button and give yourself a treat!!
And special thanks to people who support us, their names are listed in Credits! It means a lot to us!
0 C&C: Reloaded 2.1.0
Posted by FS-21 on December 3, 2020 in C&C:Reloaded News
C&C: Reloaded 2.1 released with latest CnCNet support and tons of changes.
The most noticeable changes of this release are:
- Save / Load games fixes. Specially the missing name of some TS missions.
- Apocalypse tank replacement in the alternative Soviet tech tree.
Unlike the standard Apocalypse tank it has no air weapons. Enemy units that are being grinded can't move and/or attack.
Grinded mode produces money when the enemy unit is destroyed:
- Nod receives naval anti-air support with the Hydra submarine.
It has 2 working modes: surface and submerged.
=> In the surface (default behaviour) it can hit ground and air targets with the twin missile pods.
=> When submerged it switch the missiles with waterproof missiles that function like torpedoes.
- Added 2 units available at the civilian Tech lab:
-> Mobile EM-Pulse. The old TS:Firestorm unit with a portable EMP cannon. Until the charge is full it can't fire.
-> Guardian tank. When deployed it paints targets making them a 50% more vulnerable.
- Added the EMP Cannon for GDI and Nod. This Super Weapon has a limited attack range around the structure like in Tiberian Sun.
- Added the "Free for All" Game Mode. No alliances allowed.
- AI tweaks, fixes and improvements.
It can be downloaded in the downloads section:

4 Mental Omega News Bulletin #31 (30/10/2020)
Posted by Speeder on October 30, 2020 in Mental Omega APYR News
So, just recently Red Alert 2 has had its 20th Release Anniversary! The game and its community's support has been going strong for the last two decades, so hopefully the trend continues through all the interesting projects that focus on this bizarre war between the Blues, the Reds and That Other Bald Guy. As I used to say, Long Live Red Alert 2, still the best game in the series. Given the success of the Remastered Collection, who knows, perhaps a revival of it is potentially on the table in the future. I'm sure you're just as curious to what the future of Command & Conquer holds as I am.
Now here's the thing. The set of final 8 missions of Mental Omega is built around a single narrative, telling one story from different perspectives. This means, they can only be released together, all at once. Due to various circumstances, as of this moment 5 out of the 8 final missions are finished. This has generally been a difficult time for all of us, and in our team we only have so much of our free time that we can spend on this project. After all, studies, work, family take precedence, especially now. We are getting to the end, but I can't exactly say when we will - these last missions are rather complex and demanding to design, and we want to make sure they work just as well as we intend them to. With all that said, everything else is ready and so we are going to release this update to you as-is.
A lot has changed since the last release, the Mentalmeisters team has welcomed new members, thanks to which a major overhaul of the entire campaign was possible. All of our singleplayer and multiplayer missions have been heavily revamped, with their visuals, script and even bits of lore reworked to various extent. We have further adjusted the difficulty of the campaigns, making sure that Easy setting, now known as Casual, becomes more accessible to everyone, while Mental retains, if does not up the challenge a bit.
In addition to this revamped campaign, we have prepared 6 new Special Operations and 1 new Co-Op, which replaces one of the previous maps. Yes, that is the name we'll be going forward with for this set of additional missions, since sometimes there's confusion between Covert Ops and Co-Ops. Do note that these Special Operations have been designed by different mappers than the ones currently working on the remaining final missions.
- Allied Special Op Mission Digital Demon
- Allied Special Op Mission Convergence
- Allied Special Op Mission Parasomnia
- Soviet Special Op Mission Trophy Hunter
- Epsilon Special Op Mission Fallen Ashes
- Epsilon Special Op Mission Split Seconds
- Epsilon Co-Op Mission Monochromatic
This update also gives all of the previous Special Ops their proper unique loading screen.
As you could expect, new Challenge maps have been designed and added to the game, four of them.
- Aberration Challenge against all 3 Allied subfactions with a tech level switcher
- Ironwall Challenge against the armies of China with a powerful experimental weapon
- Gladiators Challenge where your enemy has advanced weapon-disabling effects in use
- Judgement Challenge where a mysterious force is capable of perishing all of your bases
The skirmish map pool expansion is the biggest one yet for a single update - over 100 new maps to fight on! Many of these maps use new terrain tiles we have prepared for this patch and some of them are designed as interior.
- '(2) Below Zero', '(2) Billy Middlewins', '(2) Bone Crusher', '(2) Dawn of Dune', '(2) Dustgarden', '(2) Enormous', '(2) Future Avenue', '(2) Grimdark', '(2) Honeypot', '(2) Kingsroad', '(2) Modern Wharfare', '(2) The Pointy End', '(2) A Quiet Mesa', '(2) Ravens Pass', '(2) Red Sun Lagoon', '(2) Rock of Egypt', '(2) Sandspring', '(2) Sekigahara', '(2) Simple', '(2) Snowpiercer', '(2) Spooky Waters', '(2) Tiger Bay', '(2) Tournament Spire', '(2) Underneath', '(2) Vector Valley', '(2) Victims', '(3) Devil's Triangle', '(3) Unjust Rising', '(4) Amazonas Chi', '(4) Amazonas Iota', '(4) Amazonas Theta', '(4) Ashes to Ashes', '(4) Baked Alaska', '(4) Billy Middletwins', '(4) Border Order', '(4) Canyon Defrost' '(4) Carville's Command', '(4) City Escape', '(4) Floral Fury', '(4) Don't Mock the Croc', '(4) Dusk Till Dawn', '(4) Dutch Highlands', '(4) Einstein's Fate', '(4) Enclosure', '(4) Fallen Empire', '(4) The Hypergate', '(4) An Icebox', '(4) In Limbo', '(4) Let Them Eat War', '(4) Modern Wharfare II', '(4) Metro Midway', '(4) Nitro-Fueled', '(4) Oil in the Center', '(4) Oingo Boingo', '(4) Pac-Man Maze', '(4) Quarter Pounder', '(4) Race Base', '(4) Ravens Ravine', '(4) Roundhouse Redux', '(4) Set on Destruction', '(4) Sierra Cleave', '(4) Snowmelt', '(4) Sole Summit', '(4) Southwest Cay', '(4) Stormy Weather II', '(4) Tournament Garden', '(4) Tournament Tower II', '(4) A Town Blitz', '(4) Twilight Heat', '(4) Zen Bazaar, '(4) Zen Cellar', '(5) Civic Hustling', '(5) Dangerous Days', '(5) Lake Wise', '(5) Quinary Barrage', '(5) Ripper', '(6) Angel Island', '(6) Bifold Retreat', '(6) Billy's Full House', '(6) The Bloodiest Feud', '(6) Bluff Reflection', '(6) Boiling Point', '(6) Crystal Moon Cake', '(6) Dante's Inferno', '(6) Desert Descent', '(6) Einstein's Gate', '(6) Eviction Notice', '(6) Gold Experience', '(6) In Spitting Distance', '(6) Krakenhaven', '(6) Living Death Girl', '(6) Lost Inside Redux', '(6) Quicksand', '(6) Replica', '(6) Rogue Nation', '(6) Shrouded Canyon', '(6) Six-Assist', '(6) Verity's Hold', '(6) Vulkan', (6) Whiplash', '(6) Shrouded City', '(6) Wildfire Steppes', '(8) A Dusty Mesa', '(8) Knockdown Mega', '(8) Octagony Mega', '(8) Permafrost Mega'
As always, for a complete list of authors of the big everything see our Credits page.
It's been a while since the last update, so there's a whole lot of changes to talk about. There are many new additions, bugfixes, quality-of-life changes, in addition to the balance of the game being heavily revamped, to the point that I suggest you head to the complete changelog right away. In this newspost I will only highlight some of them.
- enhancements of the factions' arsenals include new additions such as: support powers Cryoshot, Cryospear, Black Widow Alpha, Elite Reserves, Regen Drugs, Wonder Drugs, Risen Monolith, Psychic Flash, Hijackers, Chaos Touch, Golden Wind, armory additions Warpnode, Ultra Dome, Cryomines, Hyperion, War Rig and units Siren Frigate, Mosquito Demoboat, Shock Trooper, Scourge, Ruiner, Hovracoon, Mobile Grinder, Orcinus Waveshaper, also including the completely redesigned Speeder Trike
- the red warning message telling you about the modified files between players and possible cheating has been fixed, so if you see one in multiplayer, do pay attention this time
- another important fix: infantry with attacks on deploy, such as Epsilon Adepts or Libra, should no longer get randomly stuck when performing the attack, this will surely help you in missions
- early game has been reworked; the vanilla factions receive a new building available after Barracks which unlocks some of the tech and new powers and some prerequisites have changed
- the worth of harvestable gems has been decreased by 25%, meaning that the actual gold-to-gems value ratio has been changed from 1:2 to 2:3, still crucial, just not as crucial
- Tech Secret Lab now always unlocks one very special unit returning from a previous version instead of doing a unit roulette - the new repair airship, Rejuvenator
- a new tech building Tech Protector increases the strength of mechanical ground and naval units stationed around it by 50% in a large radius, but requires 50 power units to work
- the new Superweapons dropdown allows you to choose to enable All, Minor or None of the superweapons in a skirmish/multiplayer match, replacing the old toggle
- the new Tech Defenses dropdown allows you to choose between All, Bunkers or None of the capturable tech defenses to be placed on map automatically
- the new Ore Growth dropdown allows you to adjust the growth and spread of the resources on the map, or even disable it completely if you feel like it
- the new No Garrisons toggle allows you to disable all of the garrisons inside of the civilian structures, but not the neutral Tech ones or the Battle Bunkers
- the new Global Soundtrack toggle allows you to enable the entirety of the standard Mental Omega ingame soundtrack regardless of the faction chosen, that's 69 themes
- Part 2 of the Mental Omega Soundtrack will be released alongside the new update, featuring old and new mission-exclusive music
- No Defenses is a new game mode, which completely disables and removes all defenses
- No Rush is a new multiplayer game mode, in which no weapon will work for the first 10 minutes
- Tournament 1v1/2v2 are new modes, which force a certain set of rules and could be used for future balance testing, possibly with experimental changes
- the client will now inform you on startup if any of the required files from vanilla games are missing
- all of the powered buildings now have an indicator whether they are online or not, usually a light
- you can left-click on a cameo while holding the Shift key to queue creation of 5 objects at once
- the client will now automatically delete all the debug log files from the game folder every 7 days
- owning a Tech Missile Bunker or a Tech Refinery in a Short Game no longer keeps you alive
- various additions to the map editor and terrain sets in the game have been included
- icon display for friends and the ability to put users on an ignore list were fixed
- you can now mark your status as always ready in multiplayer game lobbies
- it is now possible to use and design interior maps in any of the theaters

- new visual markers for objectives in missions were added
- a new skirmish/multiplayer color has been added - Sky
- Destructible Rocks, woah
