I like it.

After you guys are done give it too me so I can spice it up, since it doesn't have to be balanced with anything..........
Also, I'll make installers..............

Hrm, it looks like the problem is with the UV layout then. The texture is being applied on a projection-type layout, but that's not best for the texture once it gets on the model.

I was thinking that you did the UV differently. I'd have to tweak it to make it how it is in my mind. If the GMD team is happy with it though, don't worry.

I think it looks fine in glest.

Ok I am going to upload version 1.0 of the Moon mod soon, its done.

Quote from: BTW

it comes with my newly created moon tileset .

-Archmage- · « **Reply #431 on:** 6 November 2009, 12:48:27 »

No how about a 0.8 I'm sure there is still a lot of work to do.

ElimiNator · « **Reply #432 on:** 9 November 2009, 23:59:57 »

Ok 1.0 is out and it comes with my moon tile set.

Go to the first page to get it.

-Archmage- · « **Reply #433 on:** 10 November 2009, 01:22:57 »

Dude, just played 1.0.........that was depressing........
new icons, a few new models, all anims rushed.......that should have been 0.6 or something.........

Loronal · « **Reply #434 on:** 16 November 2009, 21:26:20 »

agreed the first thing I downloaded must have been like 0.000000001 thanks to the fact that the base opens stays open for a long time then closes 5 seconds before the guy comes out, really strange

ElimiNator · « **Reply #435 on:** 17 November 2009, 18:20:25 »

Yes strange but thats the way it has to be, because the anim hast to finish before the guy gets pruduced.

-Archmage- · « **Reply #436 on:** 17 November 2009, 18:28:08 »

No, you just slow the anim-speed in the XML.

good job so far!
A lot new units to discover!

some bugs:
- game crashed when trying to produce a anti_aircraft_gun because it has no be_build skill.
- game crashed when loading scenario moon_be_telescope. a unit phaser is not known. Is it probabaly phaser_man?
- tilset moon has .cvs directories everywhere

And by the way, the background sound of the martians is very annoying!
All in all this is a good new mod, but it still needs some work.

One hint for your walk cycles: http://de.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D/_Tutorials/_Armatures/_Walk-Cycle I know its in german, but on the right side you see the pictures for every pose needed to make one good looking step. The second step ( the other leg ) is made by inverting(flipping) the poses from the first step. This helped me a lot to create good looking walking animations! (Hint: you can only invert(flip) the poses when you gave proper names to the bones like foot.L and foot.R for example. ) (Anyone knows where to get this tutorial in english??)

This isn't exactly the same tutorial, but it's close.

Also, Elim for a running animation, 4 frames comes out good!

ElimiNator · « **Reply #440 on:** 19 November 2009, 18:37:51 »

Ok thanks evry one, and arch nope 4 frames is way to fast i do 10 at least and if its to slow I speed it up in the .xml.

-Archmage- · « **Reply #441 on:** 19 November 2009, 18:40:38 »

Dude, I used 4 frames for the Hunters running anim, it came out better than any "running" anim I've ever seen you do, no offense.

I'm pretty sure the number of frames doesn't effect the speed. I've made animations that were 2 frames, and animations that were 20, and they're the same length.

Loronal · « **Reply #443 on:** 21 November 2009, 09:42:30 »

Uhm yah elim archs a Very good animator.
@ john dh
I made a run anim with 2 frames but he couldnt have a frame to lift his leg of the ground when he was running and I gave up on it

-Archmage- · « **Reply #444 on:** 21 November 2009, 16:00:20 »

Phoenix, I learned animation from John and Elim.
But I mean the quality of my animations is partially due to the rig that I use, and also to the fact that I put a lot of time into anims.

John.d.h · « **Reply #445 on:** 22 November 2009, 02:54:55 »

Two frames? Really? You're going to need more than that to make it look good. You can maybe make a good walking/running animation with four frames, but not two.

-Archmage- · « **Reply #446 on:** 22 November 2009, 03:14:05 »

For walking, I recommend 6, and running can be done with 4, but there is absolutely no reason to use a lot of frames Elim.

Loronal · « **Reply #447 on:** 23 November 2009, 08:56:50 »

Exactly what I mentioned..... It was terrible. Also arch on animating make the guys foot leave the ground by only a small height. The anim for the necromancer looks like he trying to knee someone in the stomach I'm going to have to improve that

-Archmage- · « **Reply #448 on:** 23 November 2009, 14:19:44 »

I did that in like two seconds, I wasn't trying to make it look that good.

ElimiNator · « **Reply #449 on:** 24 November 2009, 21:13:33 »
