i'll try it

1 question, what does the update add?

also there is a problem with the dragon g3d that you have as the eagle, it is okay with all the animations but attacking where it shows the stuff you made transparent

Installed fine for me on WinXP. :)

I was really impressed; everything seems well thought-out and complete (sounds, graphics etc.). I'll be keen to see what 1.0 is like.

I especially thought building militia-type units (stickmen) from houses was ingenious.

Couple of things though:

 - Why do you start out with a Reed, of all things, at the start?
 - The Stickman sound was rather loud compared to the other sound effects, and got annoying eventually.

That's a balancing problem we still have, without that the indians doesn't get started quick enough.

Yes, thats what I thought too, but my sons say:  "indians are loud"   :D

Reed is needed to build archers reed=>arrows.
The Bullfood upgrade is needed to build black bulls :)

WOW, just played the new one and found a lot of improvements!
I just like the war-screams although i wondered at first.
Its just funny, i heared my opponent coming out of the black fog and the screams showed the hugeness(?) of his army... well i lost.

But really impressive. Concerning the Shaman, i managed to replace the axethrower (animations) and i am just getting how to do this all.

Unfortunately i had to change the exporter(xml) once again a little bit (matrix-operation). This was the only way to get my animations into glest, since the coordinatesystem is different from what i expected (all the modells lie on the "ground" in blender if they stand upstraight in Glest ;-), we could add much more unique units. Althought they look just good already, they should have more feathers, or modified animations.

nice job!
i like the stickfighter scream (maybe you could give similar screams also to other units!) but i noticed you have borrowed some voices from other factions
i think a nest would be more appropriate to produce thunderbirds (eagles)

yes, I think I will resize the campfire.

The "borrowed" sounds are the things which are not finished yet (v0.9!)
Which units still have the old sound?  It would be nice if you tell me which units we forgot, we probabaly forgot one of them.

The Nest: This is an idea my sons also told me, but who should create the nest ????  So we decided to let the thunderbird be created by either the totem, or the technician. Most of the indian totems have a thunderbird on top ( like ours did !) and thats why we put it in the totems tech tree. There is no nest in the indian mythology ;) .

Does anyone  have an idea how to power up the indians a bit faster? I think In the beginning the development of the indians is not quick enough to fit with magic or techs development.

horseman axe indian and worker

you can make archers produced by tent so you have soon a small defense (melee and long range)

you could make the axe-indian or another at a "lower" techlevel. i nearly finished my shaman (acts as an spearfighter). you could use this one as a lower or higher unit, too.

Yes, the shaman at a lower level is a good idea!
You can build a shaman on the roundtent and the reed is not there by default!
So when you build reed you can build archers ( arrows made of reed ).....

Lets hope the AI will use it the right way...

It's probably a good idea to remove some of it's feathers
( in german: zu viele Haeuptlinge am Anfang sind doch etwas komisch,
 da sollte man die Federn etwas reduzieren um einen "normalen" Indianer zu erzeugen. )


OK , now I need the new unit(shaman) :)

ok, i will change the shaman to a less "hero"-kind. i could give him just one feather streight up at the back of the head, or i try 2-3 feathers hanging downwards at the side.
i still have to improve the arms (are not glest-like enough; to thin) and the walking-animation. also i will make a single- animation-attack (everything else is too much complicated concerning balance and also appearance...)

some things i learned from the modell:
texture doesnt have to be too detailed. 256*256 is just ok and too small details get lost in the normal game-view. for example the clothes of my shaman loose its structure and look just plain...
