Ratha (Indian Chariot) Project

[Blue Monkey]

I'm happy with the way this is progressing. I know you're continuing to work on it & will give the suggestions from Takhisis (the model maker) & other creative members due consideration. On behalf of others including Rob, as well as myself - thanks for fitting this into your busy pipeline.

Keep up the good work guys!

Since Iwe'r eonto colouring discussions, the occupant(s) should be much darker-skinned.

I found some Ancient Indian Units for my MOD, but what happened with this project Ratha? Is this unit finished?

Hey Tak, your message box is full, can't send you any messages. Anyways, I haven't forgotten about this, the previous horses, although nice, had alot of probs that made them tough to use. I have new horses, that I will use, and I can 'thicken' their legs a bit to make them fit in with sandris' horses if everyone wants that using a displacement map for the legs.

Once I render the riderless horses variations, I'll get back on this. I didn't realize it's been half-a-year!

A few months out of a project that's been ongoing for at least 4 years is no big deal. Good to hear you're still working on it. Like most of us, you've got more things to do than time.

Somebody call a medic Takhisis?

 

[Rob (R8XFT)]

It would be brilliant for this project to finally be completed, after over five years. I was wondering how things were going?

 

[Takhisis]

As you can see above, Tom sent me a preview of when he started rendering (in 2012) and then… um… um… well…

Does anyone else have the model or is it just Tom?

 

[Takhisis]

Hmmm, Blue Monkey and I have a copy each, Shiro might have a copy.

 

[Rob (R8XFT)]

Any chance this could be shared with the community so someone else can have a go at putting the unit animations together?

 

[Takhisis]

Sure! Anyone willing to texture and animate the model can have a copy.

I will create quite few chariot units in my Bronze Age pack and the Indian chariot can be one of it, I could do it in one go. The reason I didn't even started my pack is that I don't have bull animations and I want finalize my reference animations first. I plan to create workers, settlers and war units with ox/bull. Is someone can help me to find it, I'll do it.

That is truly excellent! Can't wait Stico.

Yes but ox animation is essential in this case.

I don´t know if this is helpful, but Dom Pedro II made an - in my eyes - beautiful ox Animation in his Pioneer unit: http://forums.civfanatics.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=1430

I've not seen that one before - the "settle" animation is particularly fantastic!

@stico - if you were able to sort out the ratha, you would be immediately deified here!

What he said. In Spades.

And how do you extract that bull animation from DP II's file?
