My Add-ons for original Glest.

[MadElf]

i1ve been working on some add-ons for the original factions on Glest, to make them balanced with Elves, until now I made a "update" for the dragon, it has a new model, but I still need animation.
Picture:



I think that The Inheritance fans (like me) will like that Dragon, since I based it on Saphira. I also need ideas for new Add-ons, request are welcome!

P.S: I got the G3D scripts fixed, so I can export G3D files with the texture on them, perfectly, so, the next step is animation, let see if I can do it.

[madmanntis]

Wow. I really enjoy your new dragon model.

Although I am not an Inheritance fan (nor do I really even know of it at all) I really like the style of this dagon over the original. It's leaner and just more.... dragonl-like. It has a neck now!

Awesome.

[MadElf]

Woah, animating is much easier than I thought! The model is animated already (all the four animations), the Icon is done and everthing else is fixed, I just need some cool Dragons sound to put on it (I don't want to use the original ones).

@madmanntis

I'm glad you like it!

[John.d.h]

Very nice.  Did you modify the original dragon model, or did you make this from scratch?

[MadElf]

I modified it, I added claws, made the wings bigger, took of 2 horns, made the neck longer, made the tail longer, and I changed the head a lot.
And is much bigger than the original dragon

[cameron522]

It looks good, and i really like inheritance too. I can't wait for the fourth book.

I am the series biggest fan, so I love your model.
Link to download? or is it not done yet?

*Sounds: Why not open them in Audocity (sp) and edit the tempo and tone? Highs and lows should make a noticable change, as can adding a few new ones if you can (watch the movie and tape with a cam or something).

OT: The movie sucked, didn't it? I think a todler could do a better job directing, and it basically made sequals very difficult by changing the whole friggin' plot. A curse on the entire cast's heads!

I was going to realease all units in a pack, but if you guys prefer one by one, I can do that too.

I found some cool Dinosaurs sounds on the internet, but I will try that program.

OMG, the movie was horrible! Saphira grows in like 5 seconds and they kill the Ra'zac in the first part.
And Arya doesn't have Elven ears!

[Omega]

And I thought Arya was supposed to be drop dead gorgeous. No offense to the actor, but she looked almost evil...

The entire plot was thrown out, and I hope that one day, peter jackson or someone will come along and show how this really should have looked!

[cameron522]

Yeh i agree about the movie. Although, normally people who have read the book, will say the movie sucks, but that movie really sucked.

[John.d.h]

Other than the dragon, what else are you planning on making/modifying?

Oh, and here's a link to Audacity in case you don't already have it: http://download.cnet.com/Audacity/3000-2170_4-10058117.html?tag=mncol

[Omega]

And once again, how long until release? I assume that the model is done. The XML should not have changed, since this is a graphical new version of the dragon, and not a new unit.

[MadElf]

Well since this is my first animation, I still improving the walking animation, what I found quite annoiyng to make.
The units I'm pretending to make:

Magic:
- Dragon Rider; (mrph from the dragon, the rider shoots powerfull spells and the dragon has it owns attacks).
- Warlock; (Morph from the battlemage, so it has 2 "paths" to go, will need hell Gate research).
- Satyr (maybe I will do this one, I'm not sure).

Tech
- Horse Lord; (Morph from the Horseman, uses a 2 Handed sword, the horse has those "clothes" on the body as well as a scale armour).
- Ranger; (morph from the archer, has a bigger sight and range, is also faster and stronger).
- Trebuchet; (I was gonna make this a heavy defensive unit, but if you guys want I can make it a moving unit)

P.S: Any other ideas?

[-Archmage-]

nice how about a hero unit

ideas:
     Tech:
          Link on horseback

     Magic:
          Wolf Link
          The Grand Magus(Grand nagus   jk)
          Spirit of Light
         

[MadElf]

I like the wolf idea, but what is a link?
I thought about making a Archer on a horse for tech.

[-Archmage-]

I like the wolf idea, but what is a link?

have you ever played legend of zelda?
if not i recommend it, it's a really fun game, twilight princess it definitely the best version
Link is the main character, he's the hero

If you are thinking of new unit ideas still, I had a post (which I will now find and link to) that had an extensive list of units I though that Glest could and should add to Magitech.  Below is the link.  I would appreciate the discussion of that to continue there, in accordance with forum policy.

[MadElf]

Well I didn't see that topic, but i will keep post the units I make here, sisce that other topic is yours, and i'm not doing only ideas, i'm making the units.

Here is Trebutchet, sill not finished since I think the animation won't work properly because the "legs" are too short.

Picture:

[-Archmage-]

hmm neat model
it looks like you made that out of the battlemachine model

[MadElf]

hehehe, the texture is not finished, I just put the spike sholders because I thought it would look cool, I'm working on the Satyr model right now, is really hard to make the old Bohemoth horns look like goat horns.

[MadElf]

I managed to Finish the Stayr today, here we go:



I was gonna add an armour to it, so, what do you guys want? Armour or not?

[assassin]

Have it un-armoured, but can upgrade to an armoured version.

[-Archmage-]

wow nice job
maybe you should give them i healing skill

[tucho]

Really good looking models man, great work are you using the Glest modder survival kit to do it?

keep up the good work

[John.d.h]

Here are some armored satyrs from Chronicles of Narnia for inspiration:

Agreed.

Speaking of the survival kit, is there a way to get those *.bip animations into Blender?  That would help me out a lot, I think.
