Sorry if this sounds like spam (second thread on that topic)

but I have done all the anims for my Egyptian spearman in animation shop so I thought it was nearly finished then I cannot use Flicster to turn it into a unit.

If someone could give me a hand on that, that would be nice. The person can even take the credit. I am bad at graphics I know but since it's nearly done I definitely think it deserves to be created.

My anims are in two files that both need to be downlaoded (this post and next one).

Let me know if you can do something so that I stop pestering everyone :p

This file is just death
 
Hey, I got your PM. Sorry, but I don't know how to convert your .flcs to CivIII .flcs. Hopefully someone will know what to do.

I will do it, I have done stuff like this before, just give me a day or so

Thanks, take your time. As long as my work has not been completely wasted :)

OK Utahjazz, no pb.
 
Its a very nice unit. I think I should be able to compile a final unit for you within a coupple days. One thing, should I use the origonal Spearman sounds?

Thanks, but don't hesitate to PM me or put in the thread if there is anything missing, that needs to be redone or anything else.

Sound : :confused: :confused:
Excellent question. I guess it is the best sound available at the moment, even though they do not carry bronze weapons...

BTW, I tried to make the spearman bleeding a bit (belly) for the death anims, hope it does not create pbs with the colors...

How long does it take to do what you need to do (in real hours of work) for I have no idea ?
 
I have no clue whatsoever, but it isn't a problem. Apparently I can do cut+paste (what I need to do for this) kinda quickly so it should take mby an hour or two. Nothing really big.
 
Computerdude113,

Any progress on converting LouLong's Egyptian to a FLICster storyboad?

And to LouLong,

Following my promise to you in that PM that you sent me, here is a bundle of the 'man-run' bits that I always use for all my Macedonians & Hoplites.....

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads3/Man_Run_bits_bundle.zip

....as you can see, it's just the Hoplite with a different helmet and the spear & shield removed.

I was thinking that you could use the top half of your Egyptian attack animation, and just paste it over this in order to quickly make a run animation (this uses the Hoplite palette, as that is one of the few palettes that uses red as a non-civ colour).

There will be some slight colour changes as you paste your figure onto this storyboard, but they can easily be fixed by using the 'colour replacer' tool.
The shadows also need a little bit of work, as they still have the shield shadow in them.

Kryten, not yet, I've been extreemly busy. As I have told LouLong, I will try to finish it when i get time, but as of now I haven't. But I do proise once I get enough time to finish it I will. Also, if someone has more time then me (which is more than likely) someone else can go ahead and finish it, for I have bneen swamped with real life (imagine that) stuff and I can't get this done for now.
 
I tried to advance the work a little but since I forgot to change the time in my computer I cannot use PSP/animation shop anymore.

I realized as well when trying to create the storyboard that Kinboat forgot a few directions.

Anyway : here is the one storyboard I finsihed. Hope it is the correct way. It is the Attack one.
I am not sure which one is needed. Just hope it helps a bit for the job.
