I read a miestro guide on the topic of s3o unit making... Where did that thing go? It had some really great pictures and stuff. I'd still like to see someone do a step by step walkthrough for a reasonably complicated model that shows every part. It's easier to learn by working alongside of the author of a tutorial then trying to generate new content from your understanding of what the tutorial author is doing.

Super Bonus
INTERVIEW WITH MAESTRO
Maestro had did game modding since the Original Total Annihilation is in its glory. He famous for
neat 3D modeling, data and research. Also known for rapid development skill : outside being coleader
in World Domination he personally made 2 mini mods : Armor Typhoon (modern panzer
campaign) and Imperial Authority. He also famous for being the most prolific TA related tutorial
writer..
Q : How do you like Total Annihilation ?
A : Actually I never likes OTA (surprise!)...

lolz had not read the interview :D

well get the pdf for the rest!

Anyhow, that basic guide is not supposed to take the place of maestros excellent tutorial on upspring, but give a very fast overview of what you need to do in order to get s3os going, aswell as the known (and usually asked) troubles everybody seems to have when putting s3os toghether the first time.

If im not mistaken this frequent questions are not issued by the manual.
