Escape From Zombie Island 2 ready for public consumption

[KingArthur]

Damn, you found my resource I was thinking of if I would have make the Nurse Zombi.

You could console yourself by making the monster zombie

 

[LMR]

Vuldacon's made one already - I think he's covered all of the tech icons. He's been working very hard - much harder than me even

Can you do buildings?

I can try

What do you need done?

 

[KingArthur]

Thanks LMR - I'll get back to you asap.

 

[LMR]

ok (10 characters)

 

[MoscaTnT]

Oh, well done. I'll have a look. I suppose this means I have to make the unit now, doesn't it?

Yes!, nurse zombies are very needed.
I tried the spotlight tip but I didn't like how it looks like, I have done this based on a explosion I found on the net:

Very cool

 

[LMR]

At least these guys cant sneak up on you very easily!

very nice work, mosca

 

[KingArthur]

Thanks to everyone Plotinus, Supa, MoscaTnT, Yorgos, Lord Malbeth, LMR and especially Vuldacon for their recent help with the update. Apologies if I missed anyone out

And

I'm off on holiday (from tomorrow) for 1 week during which time I will have minimal web access.

Things seem to be coming together really well and I can see some momentum starting to build now which makes my holiday quite inconvenient. I'll be working on the text files and the gameplay so won't be completely idle during this time.

 

[LMR]

so have you got a project for me while you're away?

 

[KingArthur]

so have you got a project for me while you're away?

I'll come up with something when I get home tonight.

Otherwise, Vuldacon has a better overview of what's required artwork wise and may be able to come up with something.

For LMR and anyone else
TECH
Revenge of the Nerds

BUILDINGS all need building small and large and pediaicons.
1) Furniture Store - Gain Barricade in every city.
2) Detective Agency - allows spy missions.
3) Call Centre - reduces war weariness
4) Movie Theatre - increased research
5) Meeting room - build "spaceship" parts
6) Implement Coercions program ("spaceship" part 3)
7) Zombie Nurse School (Sm. Wonder unit producer)
8) Supply Drop Point (Sm. Wonder unit producer)
9) Radio Station
10) Supplies (wealth)
11) Barricade (walls) Vuldacon has made new walls for all cities: Survivors use furniture; Authorities use barbed wire; Company use sandbags; Farmer use hay bails.

 

[Cloner4000]

I have a question for the pediaicons, is it just a picture? because I could help if it is just finding and editting pictures.

 

[odintheking]

Yeah, they're just pcx's.

 

[Cloner4000]

Okay, so say I want to do the meeting room, I just find a picture that resembles that of a meeting room right? and edit it smaller sizes


NOw would that work or do I need a special program?

 

[odintheking]

And fix the pallette depth to 256 colors (using green and pink as the last two colors) and save it as pcx.

 

[Cloner4000]

Edit: I found one that's better for Black Ops

That one looks like SWAT in my opinion

http://www.blackopsnz.com/media
this website have a whole bunch of military flavored pictures..actually a paintball equipment site, but the weapon looked really authetics,
those two pictures above are from there

here's one that would look nice on riot cop (heck he IS one) or Gov't Icon for Martial Law

I think this one will be perfect for Call Center, if we can take out the video wording...

"Hello, how may I help you? Remember when you are coner by the zombie, shoot their head if not..well I'll miss you"
something like that

I tried to find Detective Agency, but there wasn't really any, so I thought, well Detective it had to be Sherlock Holmes

 

[Cloner4000]

Alright so I tried and still don't quite get the meaning of green colors.
but I did convert it to 256 colers and save it as PCX file here's two of them

 

[KingArthur]

Cloner4000, can you look for some appropriate music? Mp3 format is best but I think other stuff can be converted. That would be a big help.

 

[Cloner4000]

okay, I'll try, I think MP3 would be the easiest one to find anyway, but is there any sort of particular kind you are looking for? say feelings, style..etc

 

[Yorgos]

Cloner4000, can you look for some appropriate music? Mp3 format is best but I think other stuff can be converted. That would be a big help.

What kind of music? Typical horror music or do you think of a more alternative approach? I have several hundreds of CDs from many genres, it's very likely we can find what you need.

In fact I already have a few ideas. Let's see... Oldfield's Tubular Bells opening (main theme of the Exorcist), Glass' music for Dracula, some tracks from the Requiem for a Dream soundtrack, Branca's tracks from The Belly of an Architect. And these are just the first things that came in mind.

Or are we going to have people claming this is against copyright rules? If you ask me, I think it's more like an advertisment for these artists. Anyway, it's your choice.
