nice work kathy

perhaps can u make some sci fi units? like som rovers, fliers, cool airships ?

 

[Kathy]

The units and building I do are only mady by putting together existing parts from the download-database or the original or colonization. I am not able to do really new models.
Concerning Sci-Fi there is the problem that I prefer to do work I can use in my own mod. This is historical, so future units are less interesting for me. If you need one special unit, I can think about what I can do, but I am afraid for a set of scifi units there is to few time for me. Sorry, but kindly understand me.

hi,
ofc i understand friend

it never hurts to try.

im sure your busy same as the rest of us modders.

perhaps you can help in other ways -
a year ago i created some models from exiting ones - by mixing models with nifscope.

perhaps you can tell me what programs are you using to work? maybe i can pick it up from there

anyways, keep up your good work,

thank you for the answer.

I also use nifscope only. I tried to install blender once, but I don't know why, it never worked for nif files. I am sure, I did something wrong, but that was the reason why I still use nifscope only.

 

[keldath]

huh,
ok then.

i remember i had 2 problems = adding a weapon effect and make nice skins.

thanks for the help.

After several years, I have reworked my napoleonic sapper unit. Now the unit throws dynamite and can have working animations for building roads, fortresses etc. Here is the download link. Only problem is that I did not know how to remove the dynamite during building.

Requested by Hydromancerx: An Outrigger Canoe.

It was quite simple work, just adding the water_worked graphics to trireme animations and put a sail onto it.

I addition to the outrigger, I tried a unit I was missing by myself for long time: A Catamaran.

Great ships!
Nice job on them

 

[The_J]

I think these fill a pretty big gap in our database -> great .

Another request is fulfilled: Flotsam from a sunken ship. Requested by RayStuttgart

My newest creation: a bucket-wheel excavator as used in open-cast mining. I use it for a terrain improvement, but I think, after removing the crater, it could also be good as unit (no animations included). The vehikel is the SMAX-Former mady by woodelf.

 

[keldath]

hey kathy,

thank you il use this one

 

[hrochland]

Catamaran is excellent. However , on my machine the boat rocking on the waves and hulls not. I modified the model so that hulls have the same movement (swing) as the whole ship

[Kathy]

Oh, thanks for this! With animations I am not so good.

 

[hrochland]

I am not good with animations too , but I found some good tricks with NifSkope

 

[Kathy]

My second try with Animations: Two towers of Chamaedrys, which have been converted to use siege Tower animations and can be used as Units. I used them in my game long time without animations, today I tried to improve them, after editing the Siege Tower animations.

The included Siege-Tower animations are modified, so if you use the normal siegetower as unit, it will have correct death animations, too.

Good idea and congratulations to the animation
BTW if you have better idea for the lower part of the tower send my picture. I will make new for you. Chinampa does not look good with a piece of fence

 

[Kathy]

The Chinampa on this picture is a bonus feature on the same plot in game, it is not port of the tower. I think I have not been looking before placing the tower. It has been a bit unlucky to do this picture, sorry.

 

[hrochland]

I´m sorry
