Wow, this looks really good, you must have spent hours on this. I'm not entirely sure whether replacing the snakes by chinese dragons fits Egyptians so well, though...

Pretty nice work. You've outdone yourself. I love the new pyramids.

Pyramid dose look good, but the door still needs work (It dosen't look like it leads into pyramid).

And you changes Anubis warrior? Looked pretty good already, or did you just change anims (didn't see it yet).

Monday Ill start on Norsemen and upload some of the Indianans I made for mega-pack before.

Ok guys, I know that was April Fools, but seriously Egypt is well under-way it won't be very long. :)

Elim: Don't actually upload anything yet, you haven't even gotten synced up with my dropbox folder yet. :P

List of current changes to get yer mouths watery:
-Anubis reanimated
-Ibis reanimated
-Obelisk rocks tessellated(sorry they looked completely flat, even with a bumped texture.
-Obelisk falls apart on death(instead of floating down randomly)
-Highly tessellated Pyramid(no flat stones anymore!)
-Bunch of new animations for the slave
-Spearman completely reanimated with new spear
-Temple bushes have been replaced with much more realistic looking ones.
-All textures sharpened, bumped, touched up, and anti-aliased.

I still have much to come! ;D

about replacing Chinese dragons with snakes, has nothing to do with Egypt because snakes have in Egypt. not dragons in Egypt, An extra, you know might have a unit of Egypt's cat goddess Bastet Goddess of Egypt? ;)

Sorry guys, for those who missed out on the joke it was this:
http://thewackydeli.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/April-Fools-is-on-Friday.jpg

Cat goddess is a good idea, especially since she could be portrayed in a very 'sexy' fashion... ;D

Elim: So you have my modified Megapack and Blender files on your computer, and every time I do something you get an update? If so we're all set, and we just need to get better communication. :)
