Oh Dark Sheer help me oh please Master of unit creation

[dannyevilcat]

This unit isn't my request or anything but why does the vehicle shake at all? This the default animation, right? Why not just animate the Run, Attack ( or lauch), Death, and I guess Fidget? would it not also make it faster to create

But it does look great, Dark Sheer.

 

[Ralph_Jones]

Dark, could you make a "ladder list" to keep track of your works... bc i want to know what cool units youll create next and the ones you already created... thanks

Great work Dark Sheer, pretty soon there will be as many graphics of yours in the game as was shipped with it! I will definately be adding this one too.

Ummm...how do I go about doing that ??

I don't mind doing that but just have no idea how to do it

If someone can tell me how to do it then I will

 

[Ralph_Jones]

you enumerate the work you have done
the units you made.

Ummm....as in DS1_Terrorist, DS2_Crossbowman, DS3_Modern Frigate ?

But how is this going to help with what I plan to do next? I know, I know, I suddenly feel very stupid

 

[Ralph_Jones]

example for you

- terrorist (done)
- crossbowman (done)
- Perry Class frigate (done)
- scud vehicle (in progress)
- any other request they made you


to know when can i expect new units to arrive

[Dark Sheer]

After taken into consideration what dannyevilcat has suggested I am now proceeding with fortify instead of wondering how the vehicle should shake in default

So here is the first direction for fortify (completed default, fidget and run)

I know the animation looks kinda funny when looped since fortify is not suppose to loop anyway So please use your imagination and think how the animation stop after the missile is raised

COOL ANIMATION MAN... now, you think that a correct chain would be frigate - ironclad - destroyer - aegis cruiser?

Ralph_Jones

Yeah, that works. But I think some might prefer to replace the destroyer with a modern destroyer One of this example would be the LWC mod.

Ok, here is the final view of the scud launcher. The animated gif is a combination of two flc, fortify and attack (which is how Civ3 use the flc anyway)

So, Scipio Africanu, if you got anything to add please let me know. Otherwise the unit should be completed within the next 1-2 days. The flc should have been completed by now but I was sick for the last 2 days

For now, just enjoy the view

 

[Scipio Africanu]

Whoa, guess some messages slipped through my fingers. The thread looks twice as big as it did before. It looks excellent Dark Sheer and I can't thank you enough for all your hard work. Muchos Gracias.

 

[Dark Sheer]

Glad you like it, my friend.

So how is the carrier unit coming?? It seems someone is asking for the medival swordsman already

 

[Scipio Africanu]

Well im nearly finished with the default, all I have left is the W version. After that its a matter of cut and paste for the run animation and attack animation. The Death animation is gonna take some time again though but its coming along. If I could only finish it quicker I could get to the "Footman" or Medievel Swordsman.

Are you still planning on making that second set of missles? cause I think, given time, I can pick up the medievel swordsman still if you are.

 

[Dark Sheer]

Yup, promised IceBlaze for those

Anyway, those are pretty fast as what he wanted is a longer missile and a thicker one. So its a matter of simple cut and paste

Once I finish on that one I will work on a major one, which is musket infantry. Those napoleonic era infantries with nice plumes on their hat This will take some time as it is much harder to do human than vehicles

Heya Sheer,

Gotta a project for you, if you're interested.

The SR-71, Blackbird, I've included (hopefully if I can figger it out how to attach) some pics for the right angles, sorry the e/w perspective is so crummy.

For gameplay I thought it could be used as a non-immobile aircraft, 1/1/12 useful for both seeing those last bits of the map that take forever to send boats to, and for strategic spy-missions to make sure there is not an army coming down on your own badself .

I came to you cuz, like the thread sez, Oh Master of Unit Creation.

SW view

Thanks in advance,

If you're overwhelmed by requests or don't feel like doin' this, no worries, lemme know, mebbe I'll pull some hair out doing it. But since I'm less attached to your hair than my own, I thought I'd come begging first

Grr arrgh, for some reason the last pic keeps coming out with the wrong file. Lemme know if you need the last view. Sorry

 

[Dark Sheer]

Ok, ok, so I am easily persuaded

I would suggest you open a new thread for this project rather than continue on this one as the scud launcher is coming to an end.

And I can try to do this one as long as there is enough picture from every angle
