Those look very impressive, great job!

 

[AbsintheRed]

I agree, great looking units!

 

[LeBashar]

Thanks

I have been slowed by some problems to make functionnals fx effect of thrusters but it is solve, it'll be the work of few days for finish all others suspensors.

the suspensors look like starcraft I carriers

 

[keldath]

WOW NICE ARTS MAN,

im looking forward for your release so i can play the mod

will it be soon?

 

[LeBashar]

I prefer don't give a date which I'm not sure I can respect. But I have nothing else to do for now, and I have planed to finish all of this work in the end of the winter.

Yes testb I have based my work for the carrier in the protoss starcraft one, but it is a new meshe made myself. I have found this the best start point for work.

 

[LeBashar]

Suspensors are finished :

 

[keldath]

beautiful arts,

well done!

 

[Brugarin]

Yes, but can we expect 1.9.8 to arrive in the future? I am hoping and waiting for it and I bet I'm not the only one.

 

[LeBashar]

Well, I'm not working on a 1.9.8 patch, I only do a unofficial graphism patch.

Three new carryalls are finish (the smaller is the "suspensor transport" )

There is only the three siege engine and I will make a release, certainly in few days (if I don't encounter problems with sieges skins)

 

[keldath]

haha how cool a real carryall!

does if have are on picking up an harvester (?

 

[AbsintheRed]

Wow, these carryalls look awesome!
You should definitely release all these units as an 1.98 patch when you are ready
I'm sure someone from the original modding team will happily help you in it

 

[keldath]

hehe im am the mods first developer

wow. been a long time since i loaded up dune 0.1

 

[LeBashar]

does if have are on picking up an harvester (?

No, because harvesters are in fact tile improvements, so, caryalls can't move them.
I would like to add them an animated map for the rotors but I don't know how to do this for now.

AbsintheRed, I hope when I will release this that official modders could be motivated to make a 1.9.8 (with also those strategy guide for each faction I have post here), and with some new thing which have been discuted like improvement of house Ecaz, etc.

 

[LeBashar]

I have finally finish all I wanted to do and, and as I promise, here there is a release :

ftp://downloads.fiabitat.com/yhdgztrk/DuneWars_graphic_patch.zip

Please tell me if there is missing files or any errors.

Have fun

ps : the last screenshot of new sieges units

 

[keldath]

i love you lebashar.

 

[AbsintheRed]

Congrats for the release!

 

[LeBashar]

Thanks

I have only one regret : my new units can't have really new animations and damages states because my logiciels are too old and there is many uncompatibility (but it's only details not really visible when playing, so...)

 

[Folket]

I will need to try them out.
