well, thanks for the flowers guys
i think the ibis is good now, i only need to resize it but therefore i must do ingame tests.
yea, atm i have holidays(studying) but not for long anymore xD



the chckenfarm is still workinprogress; textures need a redo and size must be skaled...

Ok, i made some tests, i think ths size is good, its a bit taller than normal units, but anubis is also thiner...
well as ever the perspektive is eating details, the skin is looking just black, it becomes better if you zoom in; but that was always the problem

edit:
hm, what do you think how an ibis attacks?

ok, what about the texture? i think basically its good, but i must have a look if the face works ingame
i already animated it, but of course i am not so good at it, so perhaps we need a workover.

this is how the transparency looks atm. i will do tests in glest later, but right now i think it works.
i tried to avoid halftransparency but you get these edges anyway...

I let them peck and modified the ground. I can still leave the ground away, for examle for snow terrain, but then i loose the dirt too... the problem with transparency was, that the model wasnt shown itself through it right? then i must try some triangles...

easy one
set the map input in your material from "orco" (current) to "UV"

orco means something like the texture is projected from every axis on the model (like a cube which is wrapped on the modell when i make it smaller and smaller around the object)

Mods / Re: Dose any one know how to make transparent team colour?

« on: 1 July 2009, 19:45:50 »

Obviously Glest can do team coloured alpha

where?

i tried something like that with the indian princess modell, you can make a seperate mesh with teamcolor. then you change its alpha in its material so the whole mesh looks transparent. i didnt use it finally because it didnt work good for my modell; i think doublesiding was lost this way...

finished some anis; its probably too big atm, you can try playing it as replaced tech/archer

ok, now i im starting with textures, the archer is of course a placeholder, i will "agyptinise" it later
the red and green color can be teamcolor, but perhaps i must apply aditional details to it; i will see ingame.
perhaps some parts can be have fixed color.

@mummy and scarabs, wow that looks impressive ;
i think the tapes of the mummy already are well placed, it only needs more detail and contrast

slowly but steady... uvs are ok now, as you see i plan many parts just as repaints... will save much work

As you see i still have to create the contour. Shall i make the warrior from an archer, archmage or a agypt worker (of course repaint of armor), what do you think?

hi titi 
has been a while and i admit i never finished persians, but you did well
temple
ok, heres the file, i tried stretching it so if anyone whould have a go on textures?
i can try myself but i personally think good texturing is more difficult than lowpolymodelling...

what about the units? we still need the horse-car-archer?
as i read agyptian warriors didnt were helmets or amors, so we can just copy some workers again...

ps: i thnk i will make uv's soon, that is still part of modelling

hi fellows xD
if you like a temple... well its quite basic but maybe it gets more details by texture

hm, yes persians will go on but not likely in further time. i finished with school and am studying right now; so much about free time  
i will play on it from time to time but to be honest it will go on slower that it already was

hi, just played your faction!
I think its really good, the models have very unique looks and so far (well its small till now) the techtree makes fun.
Ok, to add some critics: you did already a great job on textures especially in thinking out details of amor etc. I always have problems to get a convincing looking armorcomposition. Only thing i can say: especially the hero needs higher contrast in its texture, it looks too onecolored from range. Only some dirt or just lowering brightness in some parts should do the effect.

Ah and, was quite funny in game when ai came with cataults, as they have radiusdammage and i only had meelefighters it was like a tank that did half my army alone xD. But thats of course only due to the limited techtree so far.

Keep the good work

« on: 30 September 2008, 20:16:03 »

make some suggestions  
blender has some scripts, common formats can possibly created, but you must look at the spezific case.
what animationsystem do you have in mind? morph-vertices like glest or bonebased like in real rpgs?
if you ask me there may be md2/md3 direct-x(*.x?) some ascii-based(*.asc) or maybe some fbx(?) ...
if you like northmen i can give you the blends. original glestmodels are not directly compatible. you need lots of work there.

Hi,
sounds very impressive and a well-though up faction.
For the dwarf building i only found this pic by google.


I think the houses must be build into the earth, so they are  not very high and perhaps they have earth-walls/hills that cover the house from being seen.
The walls should be natural stone and the roof should be high and wood/grass. The edges must be bound, so it looks like taking cover at its place...
Hm, dont know if that helps its always another part to out this imagination into a model.

Hi,
if you want some help i can try something, but i think you know about spare time and creativity-flow   ...
Maybe you can make a axethrowing unit; can projektiles be animated, so that the axe spins? they are at least g3ds (like the arrow of the archer).
