I'm home, where are you?
Dragons... I've made 5 different versions as well as a default gray with all the animations for anyone else to use to make their own colors. I've also come up with several sounds that I think sound pretty good... if anyone comes up with anything better please post it in the sounds forum and put a note in this thread.

The versions are:
Black Acid attack

Blue Lightning Attack
http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads2/Blue_Dragon.zip

Green Fire (the traditional fire breathing serpent)
http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads2/Green_Dragon.zip

Red Fire (a slightly different attack)

White Ice

Gray Template: This includes all the different attack animations so someone can mix and match in creating their own color version
Part 1... You need both parts if you want all the template FLC's

Part 2

Dragon Sounds... You need this zip if you download any of the above versions. I put them in a seperate folder in the units directory and that's where the INI files look for them. I did this to save room since most of the sounds are the same for the different colors.

New Attack Animations to turn it into a Flying Unit (1.4mb each):
Part 1 (default gray for editing)
http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads3/Dragon_Flying_Attack_Part1.zip

Part 2 (one FLC for each of my color versions)

Preview of the new attack further down on page 4.


Moderator Action: Kinboat hasn't been around since 2007. I'm taking the liberty of adding a link to Grandraem's post - his gold dragon variation, but more importantly a corrected units_32 file for Kinboat's dragons. Kinboat, if you see this & object to my edit of this post I'll remove it. Cheers, Blue Monkey. :)

Wow soccerrules thought it was so good they posted twice :)
Yep... My Avatar picture is a close up of this dragon model (with more detailed textures) I've made a dragon leaderhead as well... Don't know how I'm going to post it as it's rather large.
 
Brilliant units Kinboat; I may do a goblin unit to go with them, and perhaps a high elf spearman or archer. On secenaro Ive always wanted to do is JR tolkiens Silmarilion, perhaps only part of it...
 
Wow. Mind-boggeling. I'm curious to know what you do for a living. All your units look so "professional" one's gotta think you do this for a living. If not, perhaps you should. ;)

Great job.
 
Well most of the 'natural movement' is a result of the Poser mechanics... It really works wonders with animation :)
Wasn't someone already doing a Tolkien mod? I thought I remembered something a while back... But the more fantasy units the better :)
Nope I don't do anything relating to art for a living (although I'd love to be able to) I have sold a few paintings but so far nothing in the computer art realm.
 
glad to see your not retiring fully
 
Oh by the way any everquest fans on this would be a great dragon for the everquest scenario :)
