Pre-Roman Europe Models/Campaign Screen Needed! [EBR: Inferno]

[TaintedRuins]

Whatever you can loan to me to assist in the way of adding realism to the extraordinarily popular EBR, newest version would be GREATLY appreciated. You will receive at least 30 seconds of on-screen credits at the beginning of the game with both the name of your creation and your username being listed. I have to be picky, as file sizes get immensely large, even after optimization.

Anyone interested? ^_^

 

[FF7 project-G]

do NOT double post it is punishable(unless you wait ATLEAST 2days)

 

[TaintedRuins]

Double post? How? ?

 

[FF7 project-G]

repl 2x in a row when there is no one different who post under u(aka replied)

 

[TaintedRuins]

Oh. Odd. >.>

 

[TaintedRuins]

Should I simply request for the models individually and delete this thing?

 

[communist_orc]

Na.... that would be silly (and a lot of work 4 u: checkung up on all the threads...)
Ill help keep the thread alive ^^ we can take turns- 1 day u 1 day me!

p.s. Ill take a shot at the loading screen. Do u want romans or Barbarians on it? or both?

 

[TaintedRuins]

Both! :]

How do I know you..
Your name is SO familiar...


I KNOW!

YOU MADE THOSE AMAZING WALLS I'M USING! D

YOU ARE ONE OF MY FAVOURITE MODELLERS!

Go check out how I'm using them. :]

I haven't done much yet... but I will! :O

 

[Mechanical Man]

Post some pics goddamn it. How the hell should a celtic skirmisher look like? And the request is hard to comprehend. So you want those 4 models, some interface skins and a loading screen? What do you mean by "Anything you can think of! ;]" ?

 

[TaintedRuins]

Oy, anything I can use I will.

I'll post a more serious list of things I need. Alright? ;]

 

[TaintedRuins]

Done, also added some reference images.

 

[Mechanical Man]

Much better. There are however some stuff which already avalaible if you look in model section:

Roman Villa
Palace
Some desert hut if your map contains desert
This look similar too chieftain hut
I guess you can find more huts in the model section.

I once had the idea to make an elephants and chariots, but is currently not my priority.

P.S. Are you Hoarmurath on wc3diplo?

 

[TaintedRuins]

I have the Villa and palace.

The thing about the palace being that it looks exclusively Middle Eastern, and I couldn't use it in Rome.

And a ton of others.

I'll post a list of what I already have at the other thread in Map Development.

Oh hay, I'm using your battering ram. :]

PS: Yes, I am. Also at x767.com. ;]

 

[Mechanical Man]

But the palace could be still used on the southeastern parts of the map. And that buildings is close to the pic you posted. Oh, and you could specify if the buildings needs animations (if you build them)

 

[TaintedRuins]

I'm not all that picky.

I would prefer it, of course.

But it isn't a requirement.

 

[communist_orc]

I would prefer it, of course

...
Yeah, who wouldnt?

 

[TaintedRuins]

Too right, you.

 

[Mechanical Man]

Well, there is much difference from the modeler view as death and building animation is annoying to do, while the mesh is usually a piece of cake (especially those huts). Not to mention they are much bigger in size. So it is important to state their role and if you are destroying and building them in game.

 

[TaintedRuins]

Building will not be 'normal'.

So, simply put, no. I don't need them to have building animation.

Death on the other hand? I do probably need that. :l

Although, actually, I might not. As almost everything is going to be capturable.

Perhaps I don't then?

 

[communist_orc]

Dude, im going on a class trip for 1 and a half weeks... sry When i come back ill finish the screen

 

[TaintedRuins]

Its okay, thanks!

 

[Mechanical Man]

Something like that would go? I made it in 5 min, I didn't focus on details yet

 

[TaintedRuins]

Oh WOW. That's like, PERFECT.

Skin it though?

Keep up this kind of shit and I'll give you a top five supporters spot. :O

 

[Mechanical Man]

But provide more pics for this specific model, so I can better see what kind of materials to use (the walls and roofs).

 

[TaintedRuins]

--> 1
--> 2
--> 3

Hey, would you like to join X767.com? That's the home of the map.

We could use people like you, and as we are still relatively new (and small, for that matter), there is a high concentration of interactivity.
;]

And as far as the next model goes (chieftain's hut), you could just edit this one. Number 3's largest building is what I'm looking for. Increase the scale and change the entrance to be jutting out and a few decorative shifts.

^^

Well, I surely won't play your map as I don't really play multiplayer except for few close friends, so I don't see the point joining there. And there is no Andrew. D: That tard is the only thing which keeps me somewhat active in those forums


Is the texture choice well made?

 

[TaintedRuins]

Wow, that's PERFECT. ;]

 

[Mechanical Man]

I didn't add any doodads to the chieftain hut, if you have an idea, tell me.

 

[TaintedRuins]

I'd add an animal skull above the door, and make the door's wood a little darker? :]

 

[TaintedRuins]

Been two days... so, ~bump~.

 

[Mechanical Man]

I go away for one day and you are already bumping lol. Here you can check the models:

[TaintedRuins]

Its looking great!

Mind doing some moar for me?

 

[Mechanical Man]

Well, I should make some models for my project too. I made those because they were so simple.

And about the carthaginian temple, you showed only ruins, you cannot see anything how it should look like.

 

[communist_orc]

Loading Screen...

Sorry Dude,
I have like no time... School & my Girlfriend are useing all my time! But I promised a loading screen sooo here it is (Say which 1 you like more)...
If you imagined something totally different tell me quick! (My girlfriend is away for a few days so i have time)

 

[TaintedRuins]

I REALLY like it, especially the first one.

But remove the TaintedRuins thing and put Hoarmurath.

Also add x767.com?

^_~

 

[communist_orc]

2) Did you go to Scenario -> Map Loading Screen, & select 'LoadingScreen.mdx'?

[TaintedRuins]

I'll test it again.

Also, can you possibly compress it? XD

 

[TaintedRuins]

Okay, it didn't work. Sorry...

Can YOU test it in something, I may just be retarded, as I've never successfully used a custom loader before. =P

 

[communist_orc]
