The "official" Crincillin thread

[Zoythrus]

Hyper, we need to finish this mod before we make a star wars mod. it might be in the works, but we're finding hard to stay on track with this one.

[Gabbe]

doesdn`t THIS mod need a master yoda? i just feel like..

[Zoythrus]

sorry man, wrong universe (ask Seana, he might be more inclined to your idea)

[Gabbe]

what about a "Anakin" a young unit which cannto choose between the two teams...?

[John.d.h]

So, is this mostly a robot faction?  The only unit I remember seeing so far was the robot with the texture problem, so that's what got me wondering.

Didn't he just tell you it's not a Star Wars mod?  Take a hint.

[Zoythrus]

@John
yeah, it is, but we like to call them "aliens." Since Seana is head of the modeling, ask him if you have questions about that area.

[Gabbe]

Still, i really feel this mod`ll do better with some kind of...trooper...or something...

[Seanachaidh]

sadly no, that would chuck the balancing out the window... (hey Seana, maybe a Star Wars mod?)

I want to actually get this faction done first before thinking of oter factions.  but i think a star wars mod would be cool.

[Zoythrus]

we have the medium inf who has a machine gun...

[Zoythrus]

sorry for the double post, people, but i would like to know: anyone want to help us model? we really need models!

[-Archmage-]

nyone want to help us model? we really need models!

You rang?

[Zoythrus]

hey Arch, do you think that you can model, tex, and anim the power plant? if you say yes, ill PM you the specs that we want (dont worry, they're not much)

[-Archmage-]

I can model, and I can animate, can't guarantee the texture, but I'll try.

[Zoythrus]

dont worry, Seana is good with texs.

[Gabbe]

is seana good with textures?!?!?

holy **** exactely what the community needs! anyways, If you have a simple model i can...onyl simple, got much to do.

[Zoythrus]

hmmm....simple....howabout the defense tower?

if you agree, ill send you the specs in a pm.

and yes, Seana is pretty good with textures. (well, he's better than me!)

[Gabbe]

okay, if you have conecpt art that`ll be great PM

[Seanachaidh]

Hello guys,

I'm finally finished with the command center, anims and everything!



The anims are a little weird, however, I'm not exactly sure why, but the ring has some problems rotating, I'm gonna be posting a question on the Blender help forum about it later.

...

Also I fixed the texture of the medium infantry, too.



I found that my version of photoshop has some trouble exporting the targa, so after installing GIMP, I used it to export the targas, and it turn out with the alpha. w00t!

Please let me know what you think.

Medium infantry looks great, texture on the command centre looks a little blurry.

Good to see this project growing as there haven't been any sci-fi Glest mods in a while

Thanks for the input, I will improve the texture after we release the beta.

Also, Zoy and I are thinking of changing the "logo" (the tech ring) around a little bit, since it looks a little generic, what do you guys think?

if we have any artists out there, we need a logo. preferably something that reflects the faction as a whole: versatile, smooth (with some points), and floaty...

also, we are trying to balance this to the Megapack (as, we want to see knights beating up aliens). we have made some changes to the mod XML (i.e. magitech.xml) so some things will have to be changed a tad.
