yes, but you have to make your own art for it to work

AH! Well, I can't draw worth crap in anything and have no idea what I can/have to do... So, there is no pack for this or anything? That sucks...

Thank you for the welcome. Well, instead of cell shading, let's have a graphically impressive mod. Environment mapping is pretty (but somehow kills my performance) and I love the high-res. explosions that come with SCP (watching the Colossus explode in the Deus Ex Machina was beautiful!). I was looking forward to cell shading but I guess not :(. Oh, and since it appears to me that no one really has "reviewed" the Colossus bonus disk (I searched but didn't find) I guess I'll review it since it came with my joystick. If someone has, feel free to point me to it and whap me on the head for ignorance...

it isn't a bonus disk it's an OEM, part of the full game to get you hooked so you buy it.

as for cell shadeing, ehh.... yes it is technicly in there, BUT, it only works in non-HTL mode, and non-HTL mode is
A) buggy,
B) extreemly slow,
and C) probly going to lose suport for it all together, sooner or later (there are no plans for this, don't freak out people)
as said it requiers additional art, and a small amount was made (for testing purposes) I had hoped that people woul start takeing it and makeing Robotech and Invader Zim mods, but no one ever did, wich is one of the reasons why we havn't reimplemented it in HTL mode
