I think that having reins would be nice, but definitely NOT worth the trouble.  The time would be better spent improving the texture.

The animations didn't work?
All the animations? Or are you talking about the chariot ones?

Are you sure its not your viewer? There's no reason that it shouldn't be crossplatform, and besides, doesn't Titi use linux?

I looked at the chariot, and it worked fine, and if i used the animations editor i could even see the motion.  Although it could do with some eye candy and a second horse...

I didn't try it yet ingame, but it might be a simple case sensitivity problem. The final version will definitly work in linux ( I usually only use linux )

Looks good but maybe the green should be a bit darker?

I agree with assassin. It's more of a regular farm to me.

Maybe the edges could be less straight.  I think it would look a bit unnatural against contrasting terrain as it is now.

The chickens are nice, but maybe they should just sort of peck the ground slowly rather than move... And perhaps their heads should be a little smaller...

I also think its not a good idea to have your own terrain and the transparency parts of the bushes(fence) or whatever, will cause problems in glest.
( I think I should also work a bit on this mod again , it some some really nice units yet )

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...

Yes that's the problem with transparency, right. But you can use transpareny for the ground decoration!
For example some dirt can be added by this. I already made something like this (persians farm or temple for example).

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 think this will look ugly in glest , but you can use halftransparency and transparency textures for the ground without big problems.
For the fence you better use something massive textured with something like this for example:

or this

and this is probabaly useful too for nilefarm loam buildings:

nice weedkiller!

Just for your info:
I talked to weedkiller (icq) and we decided to use some kind of obelisc ( and decoration ) for the godfarm.
This will be made by me and weedkiller will build the desert camp.

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.
