New unit: Hummer Avenger (June 2nd, 2005)

[Bjornlo]

Sorry, I can not again download!

I have no idea what the problem with you downloading is. The units get alot of downloads and only you have problems.

We can work around again, but I suggest you wait for my next version of this unit. I am re-doing it in a better CIV size. And the new version should be out soon.

You're right, I was wrong. I remember the leopard being yours. I also downloaded some other larger land units... and since you'd done so many units which were a larger then Firaxis scale (100's of plane and ships)... none of which you take credit for within the zip file... so it is up to my feeble memory to try and keep straight.
Either way, it was not intended as a criticism.

Hint: Wyrm uses generic names for his files so the attack flc is called attack. Plyus wyrm normally doesn't include sounds.

That's because I'm a bad speller and it limits the bad surprises that poeple can get when they put my stuff in a game.

FILE NOT FOUND: Defalt.flc

Yeah, all true. But most units do not include sounds. And alot of guys use the same generic naming scheme. And, with the several hundred units Wyrmshadow has done, if it looks like his work, it probably is his.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. I will be posting an improved version soon.
I got some good advice from both Wyrmshadow and Vuldacon, and I'm busy following their tips.

This is just my 4th unit, and I'm still in the learning process. I do have other modern and near modern units planned. Some of which I've previewed in the main forum.
I just prefer to fix my current mistakes before I go and make new ones.

That's a helluva improvement, Bjornlo. Can't believe you started with C&P. ;-)

For your fourth unit its really good.

Nice; about time some one did the Avenger, I could of sworn I asked if Wyrm could do it a year ago… because of life and SOE he never had time to start.

Thank you it looks great

I could of sworn that sounds had to be a bit rate of 128?

I am redoing this unit. Right now I am testing everything in game, which takes some time to do it right. I am redoing some of the sounds. Also, Vuldacon reworked my run sound. Still based on an actual hummer, but not as loud or long. Wyrmshadow and Vuldgacon gave me a bunch of suggestions, many of which I am following.
My first two units I tested completely. This one I got stupid and released having tested it in game, but not as well as I should. For example, the size it too large. Also, the unit strangely got darker in shade as I shrank it in Bryce. Wyrmshadow told me how to address this, so the next version (soon I hope) will be the same color small as it was in the larger previews, and will be the correct size to work with standard firaxis units. And Vuldacon spoted that one of the animations somehow was not centered (even though they were all rendered from the same base settings).
Even so, I'd have been done with v2.0 of this unit except for a large amount of RL issues kept me from having time to address these issues this last week.
Thanks to everyone for all the kind words, encouragement and suggestions on how to improve. I appreciate all of it.

Bummer...

At least I got a hold of this one

 

[Bjornlo]

This unit is still getting steady downloads.
I reccommend the updated version be downloaded instead.
