If you've tried FF with FFH version 0.41, you'll probably have noticed that a lot of units are red blobs.

This is because kael has changed the file paths of some units since the last full FFH version, which means those artdefines in FF now point to nothing. The red blob is a placeholder when a model isn't found.

These are simple to fix, though a little time consuming. Since I'm doing the artdefines for FF anyways, I might as well fix it while I'm at it. but by FAR the most time consuming part, is actually finding which models are broken. There are hundreds of them

So, I need help, of anyone who can spare the time. If you're playing FF after installing over FFH v0.41, please post a list here of every red blob you find.

It's important to note that many factions have specific versions of models. For example, the Lanun Warrior model is broken, not just the Warrior.

If anyone can volunteer time to help test it as well, please do. The sooner this is done, the sooner FF can be playable with all new art. I'll post the completed artdefine once it's done so that you don't even have to wait for an FF update.
 
I'm doing a bit of testing myself, too. Here's a list of non-working models I've found so far

Lanun Warrior
Magnadine
Avatar of Wrath
Mythril Golem
Orthus
Rantine
Saverous
Sphener
The War Machine
Decius/Great Commander

All broken
 
Gargoyles and dwarven hornguards are blobified. I was going to look for more, but then I realized I was looking for missing art in a computer game at three in the morning. I'll look for more later!
 
I think the Pit Beast is broken too.
 
blobs:

soldiers of kilmorph
lightbringers
minotaurs
circle of urd
centaur guard
Decius

War chariots and the armored cavalry tech are missing their button art, too.

I think that covers all the general art, the lanun art and the svartalfar art.
 
I just went through the elohim units and couldn't find any new blobs. I did find, however, that compared to all the other national units, shadows look pretty boring.
 
Thanks, fixing these now. good that you're going through the races.

Shadows are just a great engineer wearing a cloak. They are kind of boring. Perhaps something I'll get around to while making that COE hero for onionsoilder.

The Lightbringer is broken because Kael changed the model. It's now a generic arabic spearman type guy. looks pretty odd actually, and not at all fitting of the name. Not sure if I want to carry that change over. The model he's used would be better as a malakim warrior.
 
It's not even "new". The artdefine points to a firaxis model.
it would be a good malakim unit though. just, not the lightbringer. I'll revert it and include the old one in my download.
 
I'm not sure since I play Fall Further+, but the small icon (left of the unit name) showing if a unit follows the CoE seems broken.
 
Yeah, Council of Esus is missing its button art. The Amurites don't seem to be missing anything, though.
 
Or maybe not the button art, but rather the other art thing... anyways, balseraphs have no blobs that I can find. That just leaves... 14 races left to check.
 
I came to help however, you guys already named the ones I found. No helper points for me.

Stupid job.:mad:

On a serious note....Gentelmen would it not be a little funny to add a really fricking annoying(think.....Here I am:lol:)random spawn that used the red blob art and call him "Noob Slayer" or the "Couldn't wait could you Demon"


Nevermind...

I'll go now.
