Could you re-texture Eaters of Dreams? I love their model, but their textures are not as good as for example Sheaim mage or adept.
Also, if I remember correctly, Sheaim don`t have their own hunter model.

Sezereth,

Have you thought about making adepts for each religion with unique spells?Maybe the Viel adept can have a spell called "Possese".It would destroy the adept but summon a demon version of it.

I m here for the Art, those questions go to Kael or someone else

hmm. I think I could, lets see when I feel like, right now I have no cool idea of how to make a worthy reskin, other than just detailing the texture...

How about a Fast Food uniform? I don't think a Sheaim archmage would let a little anachronism prevent him from wielding such potently ironic symbolism.

The animations could alternately show him yanking out someone's soul and putting them to work in front of a cash register, or eating a burger.

I've always thought the Sheaim should have more of a existentialist face vibe. Os G. must be getting pretty punchy by now.

Calabim just went to Home Depot and made some renos to their house and palace :



Almost done, I'll oly change the blood pool for something else, probably a sewer tainted of blood instead.

Nice. The old Ashen-veil style was good, but this... I can almost hear music from Castlevania playing.
Especially the castle.

Just wanted to say that I really love all the recent art you guys have been putting in. It looks fantastic! I can't wait to see the new Infernal units.

 

[JDexter]

C. Roland, extremely nice city graphics!

Stefan: Can we pretty please see some Infernal screenshots?

When modders add art, do you add them to the pak file? I tried adding my new art to the pack file using pakbuilder, standard options with compression 9, and keep file paths.

Now when I load the pak file with the old art, and my new art, none of the art displays. Any tips for pakbuilder? Thanks.

Don't use the compression - it seemingly never works properly. But even without compression, pak-files load in Civ faster.

Cheers, LT.

 

[Ahwaric]

What Lord Tirian said - do not use compression.
Also, it is easier to just add another pak file with the new art, not to edit the old one. Just make sure you have different name and put it in the right folder.

 

[notque]

Thanks, appreciate the help. No compression, and add my art to a separate file.

Thank you.

Yaay! Thanks seZ, now my crusade has something decent to kill

Any chance of screenshots?

Some Mercurian units would be nice..

I'm working on one presently. I'm a lot busy with real life and I also have to do city set in the meanwhile, but I'll try to release it as fast as I can.

 

[Inkling]

I relalize this request will fall about as low as you can get on the priority list, But is there a way you guys could make city ruins stick out a little better without making them an eyesore? I personally find, at my resolution and visual acuity perhaps, that they are very hard to pick out from cottage/village/towns, etc. they just blend in too well when the surrounding area gets cluttered. I am guessing a GUI option would be the best approach, but likely too much work. It becomes a real pain to pick them out for sanctifying when trying to keep the armaggedon counter down, and sometimes i pass over them thinking they are already improved tiles...

I only bring it up because i imagine, assuming it can be done, it would be a simply little recoloring.(if not, i wouldn't bother)

 

[KillerClowns]

All these new units mentioned in patch r, and no taunting screenshots to torment us. Is this a good thing or a bad thing, I wonder... *hint hint*
