You mean like one of these guys? The only thing he does is the bulge in his head is his breathing diaphram.

Embryodead I just finished putting them in their proper places and started the scen and they ROCKED! considering according to H.G. Wells the Martians were devoid of emotion the pics that you sent fit perfectly with well's description.

Again as my wife would say Muchas Gracias Mi Amigo!!

 

[Thorgrimm]

Wyrmshadow Would you be able to convert your movie into bik format as that is what civ requires for the intro.

 

[Thorgrimm]

Wyrmsahdow i just had a thought could you do an attackb.flc using the Martian Black Smoke discharger. According to wells they raised a gun tube and it discharged a black canister that broke open on contact with an object. My thought on the fighting machine was to either give it a bombardment rating or the ability to carry black smoke canisters a.k.a. cruise missles.

Thanks Thorgrimm

Uhh, Thorgrimm? I was thinklin me helpin more along the lines of text and such...I'm pretty good with a civilopedia and pediaicons... So Wyrmshadow, will ya PM/Email me those pics? (If ya have more)

 

[Warlord 101]

Though I was asked over a page ago (I haven't been online since you see) I did see it Wyrmshadow, using RealOne.

 

[Thorgrimm]

Amenhotep7 if you would do the civilopedia and pediaicons it would be most helpful. pm me your email and i will get them out to you with a list of items. Also if you right click on the picture you want to save and choose save picture you can save the pic to your documents.

Anothe version of the Thunder Child.

I think I know a unit that would suffice for the 2 legged Fighting Machine. Whilst looking through the pages of Wyrmshadow's mod, I noticed that the Two Legged Battle Pod looked very alike to it. Could it possibly be used ofr the Fighting Machine in this mod?

 

[Wyrmshadow]

No

 

[Thorgrimm]

Since i do not know how to save a screenshot in windows i will post my scenario as its being done. Remember it is a work in progress and the main thing i need right now is critique on city placement and the map itself. nothing is set in stone.

Sorry gents i can't upload the scen. because it is a bix. So again if someone will tell me how to save a screenshot in windows i will post them.

 

[Warlord 101]

To take a Screenshot in Windows press Ctrl+Print Screen Keys. Then go into paint and paste it. That should get you a screenshot.

 

[Thorgrimm]

Thanks very much Warlord 101.

Thorgrimm, just an update on the black smoke anims. I will most likely have the it done by Friday now.

Edit: Then again Saturday doesn't sound so bad now. I am a complete idiot, I made several mistakes on the unit resaulting in me having to restart, hopefully I can be sick from school tommorow with a cold, so I can work on your unit a little more (almost 5-7 hours of work should make it done by friday)

 

[Thorgrimm]

Thanks Marine Corps check out the map i am going to use for the mod it is in completed scens as Thorgrimms Earth.

 

[Thorgrimm]

Wyrmshadow i just checked the GT games website and it forwarded me to the Atari website and they have nothing on the War of the Worlds. So you might want to hang on to those pictures.

Cheers Thorgrimm

Love that HeatRay.

This is obviously 'pre-miniaturisation' for the Martians.

 

[Thorgrimm]

It must be windows millenium because ctrl+prnt scrn doe nothing for me. So i am posting it in unfinished form. Mainly i would need feedback on the map. I ran out of cities so i had to simulate S. America as barbarian camps w. riflemen.

Here it is

 

[Tacit_Exit]

I've got Win ME, but I just use PrtScr/SysRq, without holding control, then paste in paint.

 

[Thorgrimm]

Tacit_Exit thank you very much.

Here i England without units


Well i made the screenshot and it did not show up What happened? Problem is it is a bmp Tacit do you know how to convert to jpeg?

Thanks

 

[Tacit_Exit]

Use the 'save as type' function and change it to jpeg.

Some versions of paint I've seen can't save as jpeg, but you've got ME (same as me) so you should be able to.
