Thanks, all the animations are completely new. I love the helmet too it's much better than the sturmtrooper's one.
Un saludo

It looks very good!

I am speachless the standing attack looks awsome!

What are you using to make these? This are wicked awesome, the attack just looks so powerful...

Honestly, these are better-than-game graphics.

You just gave me an idea Orthanc. Fan made versions of existing Civ3 units, sort of a "facelift" type thing if you know what I mean. Just an idea...

MoscaTnT, you are an awesome unit maker!

Very nice. Very nice... :thumbsup:

What can I say that you haven't allready heard yet? Top Notch work! You are building quite a fan base for yourself with these awesome units.:goodjob:

... Wait a sec....Some noob can`t be this good.....Kinboat..is that you?

Great stuff again. I'm especially impressed by your death animations, which have just the right kind of "bounce" in the body and limbs. I've been trying to get these right and it's not easy.

Thanks, I'm using Poser 6 following utahjazz's tutorial.

I like the sturmtrooper death better, death animations are very hard to do, I've done a little frame list for them, following the original civ3 animations:
At frames 6 or 7 the soldier hip hits the ground. the hip bounces and at frame 8 or 9 the chest hit the ground at frame 12 the body is almost inmobile, some minor movement (foot, arms). For the gun is the same, the soldier drop the gun at frame 2, at frame 5 or 6 it hit the ground and bounces to the frame 11 or 12. I spend the same time doing the death that every other animation together.

Wel the results are well worth the effort the realism you infuze your units with is incredible.

Great unit. :goodjob:

Wow! By unit 3, you have perfected unit making. Great job, with everything! :clap:

By the massive fanfare your units have caused, I'm assuming your filling a much needed vacuum...

he makes good shooty boyz! :D

The animations are very well executed, and the unit looks great.:goodjob: For one of your first units, it's very impressive.:)

Excellent work- especially from a new unit creator! :goodjob:

Well What can i say definitely awesome animations..the helmet shining and the gun firing was outstanding...:goodjob:

This is a great unit. The animations are wonderfully natural looking and fluid. You've really gotten the hang of animating really quickly; it took me a lot longer to start making really quality units.

One question. Is the shadow on for the gunflash prop? In the preview it looks like the shadow jumps when the gunflash is visible.

Awesome unit, Mosca. :)

That unit looks real good. It looks good enough to be a modern infantry unit as well (except for the gun of course). Afterall, many modern helments look like they were based of WWII German designs. Currently, my mod's modern infantry is the WWII paratrooper (who looks suprisingly modern in-game) but I may have to switch em.

Yeah, I thought of the WWII paratrooper as a 40k unit, but the huge backpack is annoying, otherwise the unit is cool and modern looking.

why not take Balou's "modern infantry" for a modern Infantry? As modern para I'd recommend his "parachutist"

I've allready done it. I used him to replace Firaxis' modern paratrooper, which in explicibly has a white jump suit. He looks more like a bond villian than a member of a modern Airborne Force.

Nevermind... I'm thinking of a different unit. I'm thinking of his desert Paratrooper recolor that I used to replace the paratrooper.

I actually had Balou's modern infantry as my modern infantry unit for a while. But I liked the goggles the WWII paratrooper had on his helment made the unit a bit better (reminds me of NVG googles) to me.

But also, I love that parachuiste unit. It's allready in my mod as a Special Forces soilder... basically a knights templar soilder for the modern ages.

The Forest Spetznaz unit (I forget who made it) was great as well.

Forest Spetznaz? Where can I see that one?

Nope, thats a regular spetznaz, IMO :) Nothing "forest-y" about it :crazyeye:

Wow... he reminds me of Muffins. Mosca, I mean.

LoL- we only used to call it the Michelin-Man :lol:

That's cuz the original Spetznatz unit he made was in winter fatigue colours- then a "forest" (i.e. greenish) recolor was made...

Those are great units, but I think we could use more modern infantry units, just for the sake of diversity. Like a Soviet-bloc rifleman, for example, or modern Marine.

Will come (once I get SOE off my back- i.e. latest 2016 ;))

LOL @ Winter Iron Beagle you are right on the need for modern infantry units although WWII units are still needed also.

Are those... breasts?

my guess would be ammo pouches :D but of course I could always make an alternative version - for those breast lovers amongst us :lol:

LOL now there is a quote of the month.

Its just that I`ve never seen ammo pouches that look like breasts ;)

How bout you give us a civ-scale preview, maybe its not noticable?

Thanks to all, I've been playing civ with my afrikacorps as flavor german marine in order to test it, and I'm very proud, I need to do more units!

One question. Is the shadow on for the gunflash prop? In the preview it looks like the shadow jumps when the gunflash is visible.

Thanks, about the question, I don't know if I understand it correctly, but I'll try to answer:
The Cast shadow option is disabled for the muzzleflash, The shadow of the ground jumps because I've placed a flashlight (a poser light) at the top of the gun pointing at the soldier, when the muzzle scale is 100% the light intensity is 300%, that's a lot of light so the shadow on the ground jumps. Hope that was your question.

something like this I'd presume [parental discretion advised] (http://www.dustgame.com/images/SigridNaked-1liv.jpg)

Oooouii! Spanky! :spank:

Ilsa is less glamorous, it's an awful B series film (Z series). This is her wikipedia page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilsa:_She-Wolf_of_the_SS).

Sweet, I like it, this will be a great addition to add to my game, thanks!!!!

MoscaTnT...that is a Fine unit. natural Recoil and movement. The death flc is Great... it is always a pleasure to see a death that is natural and not in slow motion. Very good job :goodjob:

What happend to all links, and yours of course ???

Links pointing to .net is all wrong, since the site seam to have changed to .com

What's this ????

Umm.... it's still .net. TF would've said something if he changed it. They're just having problems right now.
