LEADERHEAD: Tangaloa of the Polynesians

[sween32]

SPECIAL THANKS to GIDustin for yet again saving the day fixing a transparency problem. I now owe him, by my own will, a leaderhead request.

Scary, confusing, awesome.

 

[Supa]

Love his mask
High Quality Job, Sween32

Great leaderhead. Just one thing - it's missing a pcx (CULTB.pcx)

 

[Yoda Power]

Nice, thanks sween.

 

[The TMT]

Cool. I love the mask!

 

[Nder]

Awesome! Completely different approach. I am not sure how you do it Sween, but I wish all the other Leaderhead creators would try and emulate your work. You put the rest to shame. Well done once again.

 

[GIDustin]

I didnt make the PCXs did I? It appears as many of them have pallette problems. (You knew I was going to say that, didnt you?)

I could not stand that city list - I see it's from CTP but its *totally* fake - they are random island names, mostly from French Polynesia, which isn't Polynesian home!! - c'mon Haraiki and Tikei are small (2km long!), almost uninhabited atolls, not capitals by any means, and not the places where Polynesians came from.

I've made a new list. These are mostly cities and towns + some islands, if they had no central dwelling place etc.

The list is based on the Polynesian expansion chronology (Fiji -> Samoa & Tonga -> Marquesas -> Tahiti, Society & Cook Is. -> Tokelau, Tuvalu, Kiribiati, New Zealand, Niue, Tuamotu, Wallis, Rapa Nui and other small islands of the whole Polynesian triangle).

Hawai'i is not on this lists - they have their own (I can post it too), because I made them a civ, with Lili leaderhead.

I like to think we fill in the holes where others lack. Piernik does a nice job of making his leaderheads look Firaxis style. Kinboat does the cool stuff like Angels and Gorillas. GhengisFarb does the "naughty" ones, and was THE pioneer in Poser leaderheads.

also going to be working on an elf leaderhead for GIDustins Magic mod. i'd have a preview, but for some reason the armor i have that would be perfect for him isn't working anymore.

 

[Atum]

I noticed (as did Zulu) that the CULTB pcx was missing. So here you go...

 

[zulu9812]

Atum, does it matter that the background around the picture is blue and not black (like it is for other leaderheads)?

 

[Atum]

The PTW ones are blue. I took the background from Brennus pcx.

 

[GIDustin]

The PCXs by Sween were 256 color mode, but had transparency problems.

The cultb posted was in 16 million color mode.

Here are correct versions of all PCXs. (Except civilopedia icon imnages, which worked fine)

Will they be fixed in the version on your website?

No they wont, as my web server is running low on HD space, so all leaderheads are going to become romotely linked, where my site links to the CFC link, or their personal homepage link. I will also keep a copy on my HD just in case the remote copy dissappears (CCM01)

You do realise that linking directly to the file, and not the page, is called bandwidth theft? I doubt a big site like CFC will really care, but you should bear it in mind.

Incidentally, you left out poly_all.pcx, to go in Art\Advisors

I will PM thunderfall about that. Most people come to my site for units, not leaderheads, so if worse comes to worse, I will delete the leaderhead section entirely to make way for more units.

This file is included in the first zip file, and the one in there is in the correct format, so I saw no need to post it twice.
