This mod looks amazing at night! Time to make a night only tileset! Could I see those workers up close?

Mr War · « **Reply #51 on:** 9 May 2011, 19:30:45 »

sure. The worker isn't finished yet but you can get the idea here. The other unit is a draft of the basic infantry trooper:

Wow, those look fantastic. What will the beta have and what won't it have?

They play crazy classic heavy metal and usually finish each concert by biting the head off an earthling.

The beta, or maybe still an alpha, will be playable but lack some infantry and air units, some build animations and upgrades. It'll be a single faction mod.

Nice looking aliens

I like the little dude in the ship

Mr War · « **Reply #56 on:** 10 May 2011, 20:12:18 »

Thanks man. I've improved them after that screen shot. The troopers are my first humanoids so thanks to Hagekura for sharing his models so that I could see how bones work. His models are much better than mine.

Thanks man, will definitely use that.

Awesome as predicted!

Hagekura · « **Reply #60 on:** 11 May 2011, 07:14:39 »

The worker model looks really good.

hmn this faction looks really like out of the cover illusts of "amazing stories".

brings favorable nostalgic feels.

lol, they do! We'd better save that for whenever the wiki page is created. It'll be an awesome caption. Something like that.

What's the blank spots?

Mr War · « **Reply #64 on:** 13 May 2011, 08:48:48 »

Placeholders. I will add two air units and another infantry unit. I'm still learning bone animation, having frustrations with some nodes not attaching to the bones etc. But I'll make progress

Gabbe · « **Reply #65 on:** 13 May 2011, 13:33:27 »

Stalkers? Really? What about some more original alien names?

Tuk'ur Waok - Stalker

Waok - Worker

Gen'thul - Mothership

Gi'thrul - Energy Source

etc. etc. Maybe, if it is confusing for the user;

Tuk'ur walker

Waok worker

Gen'thul ship

Gi'thrul pond

etc. etc.

Is that a real language? I think the Martians will have human 3rd person descriptions as it's themed on 1950/60s b-movie stuff with hg wells et al influences. But I do plan another alien side so maybe they can use alien sounding names

Gabbe · « **Reply #67 on:** 14 May 2011, 18:15:43 »

That my friend, was some random sh** I just made up with my imagination

The choice is yours, you made the mod.

Zoythrus · « **Reply #68 on:** 15 May 2011, 00:11:24 »

well, look at the Nihilian mod, their weird names worked for them!

ultifd · « **Reply #69 on:** 15 May 2011, 01:00:20 »

I don't really think that's a good comparison though. We're talking about Martians here, something that was known already. Or is.

Actually, those names hurt the mod... Nobody could recite the units by name, or could even remember what they were called. I like the simpler names.
