Bts "DUNE WARS" {Development Thread}

Keldath, the improvements do look awsome, but as to windtraps, Chamedrys did make an actual one that looks pretty good.
 
Phoenician,
great man!! thank you both for doing this,
Phoenician, by the end of this mod, we will make you a modder like kael! :))

Ajidica,
can you provide me with the link to it?
basicly i wanted to mae modern winmills -lvl as a pack of 3 and so on,
but somthing didnt worked with it so i couldnt make it to work ..so i had to improvise...

thanks guys for the compliments,
its funny, 4 improvment models are basicly one that i reorgenized 4 times :)

glad you likem :))

now im going for the improvement and bonus values as well as bonus appearnce on the map,
this wont take long,

next it the buildings.
 
I finished all the buildings and promotions. Note that there are a couple buildings that give free promotions. I did all buildings except space ship parts (should be 7 holy shrines), corporations and religious buildings.

EDIT: Keldath, ignore the PM I sent you. I fixed a couple minor things I didn't notice- I had an appointment and i was in huge rush, sorry for this. ABOVE IS THE NEW FILE.


OK, here are a few minor things you might want to take note of:

-A minor error screen appears that the stillsuit promotion is labeled incorrectly, i have no idea what that is about. But mind you it is the only error that pops up.
-Thumper promotion is supposed to make a unit immune to worm-strikes and make no sound (only available to infantry).
For now I just made it give +1 movement, if it is too hard/impossible to program it to do its intended function then just leave it with the +1 movement.
-And lastly, the entertainment wonders should be giving you hit movies, musicals, etc. Instead it gives you free spice and water. You will have to fix this.
-----------------

Keldath, where is that new version of dune wars I've been asking for?
 
Phoenician!
awesome !!!!

saw the pm first...

i will make the models of the buildings,

1. dont worry ill fix the error
2. no worries i havnt added melinkos sound mod yet, cause im waiting for him to send me the worm effect, i think hes away for personal issues for now.
3. i created 5 bonuses that can only be given through certain buildings, mainly i intended to give them through improting buildings like space port,
i will assign those bonuses to the buildings that is most suitible.


****
you outdid your self,
excellnt work.

just for your own knowldge - that why you got the stillsuit error:
you did <FreePromotion>stillsuits</FreePromotion> and it suppose to be <FreePromotion>PROMOTION_WOODSMAN1</FreePromotion>.

so everything is good.

you saved me alot of work brow.

tell me if you want to do somthing else or for the time being, rest a litlle :))

Keldath, would you mind if I edited the image for the opening screen menu. I can fix it up on photoshop, it looks really saturated and pasty. send me the image and I fix it for you-better contrast, illumination, and sharpness. I can fix it good.

I'll do that. and then I make some art for loading screen, advancing eras, etc.
 
sure thing buddy,

if you wish, feel free to do another menu that you think is more suitable,
perhaps if you have another interesting photo,

also,
if you can, it would be nice if you can change - "by keldath",
to "by keldath and friends" and in a reduce it size a bit more.

i noticed that some of the buildings are replacing others,

i need to make some you made as uniqe i guess ill use the list you wrote in the earlier pages currect?

yes refer to the previous pages. all the unique buildings give very strong bonuses so you don't want to make that into a regular building!
Everything you need is on the previous page.

I will make a few images for the opening menu, you choose which one you want.


EDIT:
I have a question. How much distortion do the images for loading screen/main menu/advanced age images have to be?
25% condensed or stretched from the sides? because it looks that way on the image you sent me.
 
I think its 25%, same as all other images.
 
...mmm choosing is hard.....especially with your art skills...hehe

well, for the current menu, i used revdcm opening menu, so i guess its a standard,
its the first opening menu i ever created, so,
if you want to know more about the image proportions, i suggest check out other mod menus,
but i think mine wi surfice for you. :)
 
I think what would work well as a opening menu is either a shot of Arrakis from space, the Residency at Arrakeen, or simply a shot of the open dunes with Fremen. (Worm optional). Or you can do whatever you think would work best.

oh mannnn....

now i have to choose........my god! the humanity!


i think screen num2 is the best, its beutyful, thats the one!

the second is cool too - although the dune is a bit blurry,

again...great work brow.

ok, #2 and #3 was blurry. I fixed it:

this is how they look now:

DUNE_MENU_ART2-1.jpg



btw, if there is anything I can do let me know. No buttons though. I have XML understood now, so anything XML is good for me.
Also I played a quick game on marathon speed on the older version you gave me, the techs were way too cheap. I advanced an age before I finished training any soldiers. Could you send me the latest version of Dune Wars please, this is second time I am asking.
 
I agree, the second one looks best, although if you have the new dune, you might want to use one of their worm shots as a base as it is a bit more 'vibrant'. I do love the religous victory one, god is definatly on your side. However for the first one, worm vs Sardaukar, no chance for the sardaukar.
