Dieselpunk Troopers

[Zess]

Currently in game the model is producing a light from itself during the stand animation. Also the crest on the hat, the extra armor on the chestguard and the straps on his bag are "fuzzy".

Thanks, I'll fix it as soon as I can.
The bug with the light has already been fixed and I slightly corrected the shooting effects.
However, I want to finally finish the work on the animation of another model, so the next update will not be so fast after your recall, but it will contain something really new.
Well, also, as I promised, I'll publish the lighter version of models (old design).
I just do not know how best: post everything here, or create a separate post for them.

Thanks again for the feedback and bug searching: in recent days I do not have much time for in-game tests, and some bugs just are not visible in MdlVis, so your help is just invaluable.

As I said, you need to upload screenshot 3, screenshot 4 and 5, these threes deserves their place.

Um, I think I did not quite translate my plan of action and you did not understand me.
I'm working with google translate, so I understand that mistakes are inevitable.
I'll try to explain again.
I will make models in two versions: in the style of the early screenshots (light weight, with fewer decals and less differences from the original Herr Dave models) and in the new style that you saw (more decals, and I'll try to add as much as possible something new and original in terms of appearance)
These models will use the same animations.
When I finish animate the new model (this will be one of the three named by you, but I will not say which, he-he), I will have a choice: upload both versions of models into this post, or upload models in the old style separately.

Woha! This is stunning! Great Job!

 

[Diegoit]

Done! Now pls we need enemies for those soldiers

 

[Zess]

I'll begin work on this after when I'll be sure there are not serious bugs.
Besides, I was thinking about creating something more heavy and motorized before that.
Some of the suggestions above have given me good ideas, so I would like to try them.

 

[ShadowMidas]

the latest update of this model looks awesome!

 

[Ether]

Great pack of units. Very nice mane.

 

[Hazop]

Can the diamond shape on the helm of the old trooper be changed to look like the one on the newer version?

this thing | HIVE

Okay, why not.

 

[Ether]

An epic pack that is really coming to be my campaigns' enemies of goblins and gnomes.
10/10

 

[SonsOfSami]

Great series of models , but can you reduce the smoke and increase the muzzle flash on the HMG?
it looks strange when using 0 cooldown attack unit (automatic)

 

[Mechanical Man]

oh you uploaded all 3 in the end

I remade effects a bit.
It's ok now?

oh you uploaded all 3 in the end

Well, i'm not fast)
In fact, the new design for the officer and the infantryman was ready earlier, but I decided to remade it about three days ago, when i start work on machinegun.
There were no very big differences, but I had to change something and fix the skeletons so that the new legs fit animations well.
For this reason, in the animation of a spell, an officer has a placeholder in the form of animation herrdave's commissar: my old spell anims with new legs was too buggy, so on the next week i will made some new ones.

Separate faction of Dieselpunk troopen?

 

[Zess]

Separate faction of Dieselpunk troopen?

I do not quite understand what you mean
But if I understand you correctly, then maaaaybe, he-he)
I have two or three more ideas for these guys by now

No I mean are these troopers 2 separate factions/armies?

 

[Zess]

No I mean are these troopers 2 separate factions/armies?

If you want - why not?
Initially, I did not think this way (in the end, I saved old models mainly because people wanted it so), but maybe later I will made some stuff with the old versions.
But only maybe and later.

 

[infrenus]

Oh, I love these lil guys! That hmg is lovely

Rocket Trooper
U might like this concept as Dieselpunk rocketeer or flotzamboy?

 

[SonsOfSami]

I really like the concept of the the new stormtrooper, but it has some issues, particularly with stand-1:
-Muzzle flash is waaay too big for an Machinepistol\SMG
-Muzzle flash appears during Stand -1, you need to add these lines in the Rifle Smoke and Rifle Flash particle emitters:
160665: 0
161998: 0
This will fix the stand -1 problem
-Corpse appear during stand -1, you need to add this in the geoset animation that controls the corpse:
160665: 0
That will fix it
Also, shield is invisible in in stand -1
A suggestion, a walk fast alternate where he walks faster, as current one is too slow, this is just a suggestion though
If you want, i can put here a fixed version : )

Yes, I found all of this errors (except first one), and i fix and reupload model literally a moment ago.
Btw, thanks for feedback)
UPD.
Is the muzzle flash and smoke OK now? Or it still need fix?

 

[Zess]

Actually, this is a good idea for spell: he can run forward like ram, hiding behind his shield.

Yes, its much better

Actually, this is a good idea for spell: he can run ahead like ram, hiding behind his shield.

Sounds nice!

 

[Hazop]

Beautiful assault trooper!
Also what happened to the Motocav and Motorized Ugliness?

*Edit* The Assault trooper has a bug that he makes the entire map "lighter" and breaks fog of war

 

[Zess]

Well, maybe time has come.
Motorized ugliness will be next and, maybe, even on this week.

 

[Ether]

A good pack. I wonder what will come next to Motocav and Ugliness Maybe a flying one or a gigantic dieselbeast.? How do I know? I'm just guessin'

Gigantic flying dieselbeast-zeppelin.
With a lot of flamethrowers and chainsaws.

Maaaaybe sometime.

There's a bug with the assault troopers, when ever they are present on the map, when they move the shadows on the map glitches out and random light spots appear in the fog of war

Thanks, I fixed it now

 

[Hazop]

Sorry to report but the issue also persists, though this time its when he plays his attack anim. When the cam is over the storm trooper when he's shooting there's a burst of light similar to what happened before with the walking

 

[Duke]

Oh yeah, straight into campaign imports

Oh, I'll fix it.
I forgot to fix the size of the lighting, sorry

 

[EJD Gamez Studios]

Love ya model brother..keep updating it so that I can used it for my custom modern warfare maps..thumbs up dude

 

[FlameofChange]

YESSSSSSS
A MORTAR GUY

I would just need a WW2 and a modern one and it would be perfect :>

 

[SonsOfSami]

Both muzzle flash and smoke appear during stand and walk animations, to save you time finding the error, just add these lines in both of these particles:
265300: 0
266633: 0
267566: 0
268399: 0
That will make it disappear
Also, why not use Cloud8x8 texture for the smoke?
Suggestions:
-Add recoil in attack animation
-Increase the attack particles' size and latitude
-Add a small bomb when he reloads the mortar

Oh, I just thought to try a different texture and forgot to cancel the changes.
I'll fix it back now.
Also, the model already have this lines, so I add new ones and now it work well.

The mortar shell disappears in the last of the stand alternate animation.

Hm, I recently updated the model, check now - this bug is not in the viewer.
Kinda strange a bit.

For some reason after the assault trooper plays his spell anim and after the Mortar does his reload animation, a weird noise plays. I've tested this by making 'new' map and adding the models in just in case and the same sound plays.
And whats the animation play back settings the mortar needs so he dosent fire after the projectile already fired?

 

[Palette]

Really love that Dieselpunk Assault Trooper model

 

[Frostfaust]

Hey Zess, amazing once again, Man! Are you ever going to release a massive Pack with all the various iterations of Troopers youve gone through?!

 

[Zess]

Hey Zess, amazing once again, Man! Are you ever going to release a massive Pack with all the various iterations of Troopers youve gone through?!

At this moment - no, but I can give any necessary variation in private.
Maybe when there will be more models, I will create a separate pack for new models, and will upload the old versions in this post.

 

[Wayshan]

Great stuff. Gotta love the armor and the Assault Trooper

 

[Frostfaust]

Slwoly evolving to Death Korps or Iron Legion xD
I LOVE it! Have you thought about making a Hero General Version? Or a Specialist/Kommando one? That would look sick!

Well, I would like to make a heroic version of an officer’s model (also because I don’t want to get rid of that augmetic red eye that old models have)

As for Specialist and Commando, they will.
The commando will be in two versions - a trencher (some kind of berserk-stormtrooper with more emphasis on melee combat) and a saboteur - who will be a scout / assassin, but will also be focused on close combat, not marksmanship.

The specialist, of course, is a sapper, but, unlike the two guys I mentioned above, I didn’t even begin to work closely on it's model: he exists only in a very old and irrelevant version.
And, perhaps, a sniper who will be a variation of a saboter.

Face textures are broken.. The mask is a weird blend of skin and leather...

I several times reloaded the textures and models into my map and the face refuses to be textured right.

Could you look into this please?

Oh, maybe the problem is with the landsknecht: I don’t remember if I changed its texture to the total for all
On my test card, everything worked as it should, otherwise, I would not lay out the work here.

I do not know whether it makes sense to release a fix now, once a week I would like to post a full redesign.

No its not the landsknecht, its actually everyone but them

 

[BlackRangerXIII]

I think I know why the soldiers are having poor face textures: The landsknecht texture is a bit different from the other soldiers. specially around the face.
I recommend using the Dieselpunk soldier texture instead of the Landsknecht texture
