there are, but they are not entirely new (retextured), because someone else used them first. i contacted the people i borrowed them from, and they agreed and are in the credits

[Loronal]

Okay em I'm going to have to recuperate some lost models as the skeleton warrior and skeletal mage. But on the good I finished the arcane sanctum. Once Im done I'll send it to you

[emscape]

I could help u at least with texturing, send me the uv maps and ill texture

[Zoythrus]

i would help, but unit-making is not my forte

[Loronal]

my true fail in unit texturing is faces . But anyways YES I truly love modeling in comparison to texturing. But anyways I still like to texture sometimes for buildings and stuff

[emscape]

I love texturing, and cant model, can script

[-Archmage-]

Dude, why not learn to model?

[emscape]

because i dont have the time to get glest to work properly.

[-Archmage-]

Dude you don't have a working copy of Glest?!?

[Loronal]

Your using linux or windows? windows just reinstall works fine(remember to back up your mods). Linux learn about root then reinstall or run kpackage with kubuntu hit alt+f4 and type in kdesu application name and you have all acess

[emscape]

SRY I meant blender

[-Archmage-]

Dude what do you mean, it's easy!

Are you Windows?

[Zoythrus]

Blender, easy? Wings 3d is easier, why cant Glest use that?

[emscape]

thx, ill try wings 3d, blender says its working, but i cant get how it works.

[-Archmage-]

Blender is complicated, but once you get into it, as John said: "I wish all my programs were designed the same way"(something like that).
I tried using this other modeling program once, you had to click on the rotation tool to rotate and each tool for each thing. God I hated that.

I'll take a look at Wings 3D and tell you if it's any good.

[-Archmage-]

No, Wings 3D is kind of strange, it's definitely not as easy to use as Blender!
Rotating takes to long, in Blender I can rotate fast and start editing the mesh again, but in Wings 3D you have to do a MMB click and then you can rotate and then you have to click the LMB, it gets quite annoying.

Can you even texture or animate in Wings 3D?

[Zoythrus]

sadly, no, but i find it a lot easier to use cuz its simpler (everything isnt dark grey!)

[-Archmage-]

Dark grey?
No, that's just your monitor.

[John.d.h]

If I remember correctly, Wings3D is just for modeling, not animation, so it seems a little pointless to learn a program just for modeling.  Plus, no G3D script... so yeah...

[emscape]

Ah ok, so I should just learn how to blend in the holidays

[-Archmage-]

I would recommend PMing John to learn about Blender, I'd say he's the most advanced modeler that uses Blender.

If you want to PM me, here's what my skills are(so you'll know what to expect):

Modeling: Good
Texturing: Barely able to...
Animation: Very Good

You obviously have to start at modeling, and then you can move to either texturing or animation, but I recommend you do texturing because you can already create a texture, you just don't know how to unwrap the model in Blender, once you learned unwrapping then you need to learn how to apply the texture, then you'd probably want to move on to animation.

Good Luck! Remember PM either me or John, or maybe both, for assistance.

[emscape]

ok i will, i have holidays in two weeks, so a lot of time to learn stuff, texturing is something i can do, i allready have experience with uv maps and stuff, so that makes it easy for me...

only animating and riging will be difficult.

[-Archmage-]

Luckily for you, me and John both are good at animation!

[emscape]

nice, then we could cooperate:D

[Zoythrus]

i would use Wings 3D for Spring, and it worked. i do wish that it would work for Glest, cuz i would model more if it did.
