Just thought I'd adress some of the posts I missed, as well as give a general update...
@Khai: While that blind swordsman looks indeed cool I can't do it because I'm just not at that level of skill in terms of modeling humanoids, much less making cool animations for them. I might though make that sword, it looks interesting.
@GarretSidzaka: It might be interesting to add protesters (at least the ones with Molotov should be straightforward) but it's not on a priority list. If I get a break from other projects and feel like it I might give it a shot but don't hold your breath.
@RomanFire: I still very much want to do that RPG, hopefully I'll be able to get to it sometime in the next few weeks.
@Keltic Fitz: Why do you want to use the grenadier, is it the hat? If it is then it's possible to just grab the grenadier's head from Chalid's collection of heads
and put it on a swordsman or something. I don't know if I'll be making it however because while it should be fairly simple, it's gonna be time consuming, especially the texturing part. I never say never but don't hold your breath. However, if you really want this unit you could give it a shot yourself. Other than texturing it's not very complicated and once you have the model you could request a matching skin.
@Chamaedrys: I've been itching to make a ship but I don't think I'll ever have the time, sorry.
@ImperialBritain: Well the strenght and other stats are up to you or just mod makers in general, I just do the graphics.
As far as these units, they might be an interesting experiment in creating more unit variations so I might take a look at it in a few weeks. But you should keep your eyes open, someone just might do it before me. People already created variations of french units similar to this so it's possible someone's working on some varied british units as well.
@Ploeperpengel: Well, if you only need the lance it shouldn't be a problem. I myself wanted to make knight with a lance for a while but I keep delaying it because the animations will take forever (all the double checking and potential bugs, etc.) but if you're willing to deal with that then I certainly can provide a lance.
If I get couple of hours this weekend then I should have it by monday, if not then expect it next weekend.
@FK2006: These are great resources, thanks.
@Final Starman: G36, hmm. I want to make several modern and maybe slightly futuristic rifles (finally got a reason to model guns
). Don't know when I'll get to it though, but when I do I'll let you know.
So... a lot of shut downs, isn't it?... not very good
Ok, well it might look bad based on this post but I do make units based on this thread, oh and Klyde182, I still haven't forgotten about the elephant.
I don't want to discourage folks from posting here, but just to make the situation clear - with my new job I don't have nearly as much time for modding as I used to, and I have at least a month, if not more, of backed up projects that I need to finish. So, other than really simple quick requests, like the Lance, I won't be able to fulfil any new requests for at least few weeks.
Having said that, it doesn't mean I won't... here I go with the crazy ramblings again
- sometimes when I get tired working on all the same projects for long I might go here and go through the requests and pick something new to do. That is actually the reason why I have so many unfinished projects at once, I just can't commit to one project, I gotta play the field.
P.S. Wow, I really use smilies a lot, I got the "too many images" message when I tried to post this the first time.
. Point of all this is that a female warrior type will likely need to be modeled and animated from scratch, and I've no idea when, and if, I'll be able to do that.
