This unit was a request from Woodelf for his mod work. It's a generic robot, that can be used as a combat troop or a futuristic worker. If you were into the Transformer toys in the 80's you may find something familiar about the robot's head and colors. I based it a little off of the Transformer named Shockwave. :scan:

No animations yet, but I've been fooling around with them and might update the unit to have them in the future. The polygon count is 1044.

heheheheh, i like

Thanks a ton man. It's perfect for what I was looking for. Can it be skinned as well?

Now you can work on an entire robotic army!

No problem, that was a fun model to work on. :)

I always make my units with a .dds file, so it can be skinned like the vanilla units.

I haven't tried it yet, but it may be possible to replace parts of the robot with custom models by using the nif viewer from the 3D Max plug-in. If that works, you could build an army from that one model. :D

That's what I was thinking about interchangeable parts. Swap out a head, an arm, the legs for wheels, anything. That would turn this into an almost SMAC type unit builder. :)

Yay

Thank you Dual!

Thank you Dual!

I can see this guy in your SW Mod quite nicely.

Dual - What unit did you define him with? I'll start with a warrior if I don't hear from you....

Yep, warrior would work well. Any land unit really.

Since they're all different....can you post how you got it to work? Warrior didn't work for me, but I had the kfm and shaders in.

edit - By changing to this:

<SHADERNIF/>

It solved it. Thanks, it looks awesome.

Dual - Can you post a bmp version of this model so I can skin it? When I try to convery it with dds converter it craps out....odd.

Here ya go. I use a program called DXTBmp (http://www.mnwright.btinternet.co.uk/programs/dxtbmp.htm) to make all my dds files. I don't know if that is what your problem is or what. But I was able to convert it back just fine using that program.

Thanks Dual. My DDS Converter has been working fine, but some of the newer models cause the program to crash when I select the dds file.

The DDS Converter 2 by chance? Had the same here. For me if a dds file crashed in it, it was a sure telltale the graphics wouldn't show ingame (for instance the moonmod flags).

The DXTbmp works fine on all tho.
