Project: Arda Mod (LOTR)

[Elda King]

Anyone has ideas of good buildings? I'm thinking about it for about a month, and still don't have enought!

 

[WGW]

tell me a bit specifik what you want.
you just want to add buildings or do you look for something?
i can make up some idea's i think if you tell me a bit what you want

 

[thomas.berubeg]

Any, really.

 

[WGW]

well tell me more in detail what you want.
it's a lot more easy for me to work to something then just come up with an briliant idea
tell me some stuff and i think i can think a few nice things for you

 

[thomas.berubeg]

WGW, i've contacted Apoc, in Chamber of records, to ask that you be made a member of our team, giving you acces to the Development forums there. you'll see what we have.

Look at Fall from Heaven II.

Do you mean unique buildings for Civs or general buildings every Civ can build ?

Actually both.

You could go visit the CivIII C&C and maybe get some ideas from there as there are more fantasy mods. Short of that once you get a public release you'll get plenty of ideas.

I'm guessing you know of this already, but you might want to try browsing around here:

[Brisingamen]

when is it going to be finished?

 

[thomas.berubeg]

 

[WGW]

well we are working hard on it. but an we cant call out an date when its ready. were are still having ideas on how we do it. and then we need to make the game work, do some art work, some balancing and other stuff. so it would take a while till it's finished. but still we are working on it and perhaps we can launche an 'demo' version of it first. but that would take a while i think i hope that youre question has been anwserd

 

[thomas.berubeg]

WE currectly have one really bad bug, that's stopping us from playing...

 

[seZereth]

you wanted to have my amurite phalanx... but well it`s amurite and it has to stay amurite...

but i can offer you something different, it has been produced very quickly and lacks the detail my units normally have, but viewed from an average civ4 players distance it looks quiete good, don`t you think?
Shadowed in white there are those gamesworkshop figures i was inspired for the texture, but still wanted to make a hybrid with the amurite phalanx,...



so what do you arda guys and the rest think about it?!
They would need some elven specific weapons and perhaps that shield, but my time is rare and i have to do everything step by step.
any comments?!

 

[thomas.berubeg]

They are very, very nice, but could you possibly dull the gold down, and make it slightly redder? They are elves, but they've also been in many battles, and the armor is used and not as shiny as it once was.

Is that alright?
Thanks alot.

About the weapons, that spear you have would probalby be appropriate for all speared units (eg: spearman, pikemans, and the rest.) if you do the shield that would be amazing...

Thanks you very much.



Edit: PS i was looking at the teaser of the week in your sig, and think it a much better mane than the one currently in game

here is a modified version, have a look in game and after that tell me what you think of it, i will finish him tomorrow, i have no more time tonight.
And if you find someone else who is wwilling to rebone or reexport the unit to the rest of the wished animations, i would be pleased, as it is not hard and i could use my time better (e.g. for the creation of a shield and a sword).

EDIT: well i updated my sig with a new teaser, the actual version of that mane, we are just thinking about what to do with it

 

[thomas.berubeg]

Sorry, but what animation? warrior, Swordsman, pikeman?

 

[seZereth]

hehe, sorry, forgot to say:
i included a warrior.nif and a swordsman.nif,
so you can use the warrior.nif with the warrior.kfm animation
and the swordsman_fx.nif with the swordsman.kfm animation.

Hmmm...


*Makes a note to keep an eye on this*


May you have much better luck than the old Civ 3 "Lord of the Mods" attempt
