Dragonia II Mod

[Ploeperpengel]

Nah! sure you can use archeranimation but it's not what I mean. I'm using this for elves in Warhammer since ages but there's a problem with this animation I couldn't fix. What I can tell is that the logs report asserts if archeranimation is solely used for melee and not ranged combat and sometimes the units just stand there not hitting at all that's why neither FFH nor WH uses this for new units. It's ok for a placeholder until we get something better. No what I want is some real Drizztaction.

You're on And if you can create a better animation for that Drow warrior, that would be great too.

 

[Ploeperpengel]

I doubt this will be feasible (unless you rebone it later). The model will either have to be compatible to the chonuku or praetorian bonestructure. This project would take a lot of time even more if I start from scratch so intead I'll probably start of with one of the example files. But first there's a lot of grunt work. I couldn't enter my WH game since weeks because I still got to include these hundreds of artdefines and until that's settled down it keeps crashing before I even reach the mainscreen. BTS is awesome but aweful to convert to

 

[Darque]

Sounds like you're having fun with the conversion. I had been desiging my mod and doing some light graphics work for it for almost a year...but didn't start any serious modding until after BTS came out. Glad I did, as now I don't have to worry too much about conversions.

Nice work on the links and descriptions of Holy Places and Center of Powers. I'll never say I'm at a lack for modeling ideas again.

 

[woodelf]

Converting sucks. SotM is in limbo partly because of this.

Here's a quick untextured render of the Pantheon Temple of the Seldarine. Any suggestions?

 

[Darque]

Thats looking good
Just make sure to add some little extras such as trees around the outside of the pantheon to give it some life.

With winddelay's help making spiderwebs here's a rough render shot of the Spider Queen lair.

You can never go wrong with Dragonlance art and references

What sort of building texture? I was thinking about bark for the 4 towers.

 

[Darque]

A treebark looking texture should work pretty well. The rest of the structure could use a texture similar to your New Elven Palace.

this is beautiful... i would like to say that the arda mod will definently use this too...

Re-using textures is always good.

Thanks thomas. I hope all of these find a few homes.

 

[Darque]

Woodelf,
I think for The Web of the Spider Queen, the stalagmites should utilize the now standard Dark Seldarine texture...but add glowing blue lines, same as the Temple City of Guallidurth will use.

Do the blue lines have to be in a pattern or just random?

 

[Darque]

Try to keep a pattern, but the pattern can change. In the pic, it seems the pattern is similar to that of a spider web.

 

[woodelf]

Ouch. Not easy with the way I map things.

This will be a WIP.

 

[Darque]

Does this help?


I have decided to use a similar pattern for the drow city graphics.
