The Ancient Mediterranean MOD

[Notarzt]

Very nice skins BenGee!
Finally someone to help me. If you want you can can make more skins as I'm busy with 3D models atm.

Different infantry - armoured infantry
Different elephant - war elephant
...
just check the game to see what standard units still need diversion.


would really be nice !!!

For sending: PM Laurino for implementation
PM thamis for FTP-account. That makes uploads much easier

 

[BenGee171]

yeah surely! i will do that and you do realy great work with 3D models, i don't know much about cause i did not have 3Dmax and don't know how difficult it is but your models look very professional. So keep on makeing 3D models. one more thing: could you make a sable (krummschwert) for the persian UU which replace the normal sword?

I will look in the civilopedia and try to fill the empty places with skins. but i need to know where i should send them to.

 

[thamis]

Thanks! Now I can get the real 1.5. I knew I was missing something.

Just out of curiosity, is there anyway I could help with you guys. I am clueless when it it comes to programming etc, but I love Ancient History and have a lot of books on the old world, and I am reasonably knowledgeable.
So If I could contribute, IE give back I would like to. If you would like to give me an assignment I would be glad to pitch in.

Thanks again

There are a few things we need help with, mainly text-related.

- Writing pedia entries
- Finding quotes for techs
- Writing strategy entries

 

[thamis]

where are the notes on the 1.5 release???

Somewhere in Laurino's head. I'll post what I know.

White Rabbit already made a Swordsman with a Saber/Sable (i dont know - i mean ger.: Krummschwert)

Do you want to make it by yourself that TAM includes exclusive ones? Or do you want to include some onter stuff? I think Thamis should answer this.

If I am right, everything is exclusiv now!? is that right?

 

[thamis]

i started 1.5 and saw taht there is so much work left to do... so i tought i should not waste the time with playing around. I made 3 Skins you could use. I hope you will use them. I also made 3 Buttons but got no Screenshot or them ready.

-to the skrimisher with the shirt, i could try to give him a armor and change his wooden shild to an metallic shild..

Very nice models. I can include you in the TAM mailing list, if you email me through Civfanatics!

 

[Leptomeninges]

Let me just mention that I'm trying to crank out a lot of pedia entries today. If anyone wants to help, send me an email and I'll give you a topic to work on! Thanks!

White Rabbits model is good. I wont design another.
And Krummschwert = scimitar.
And I don't know if we want to be 100% graphically exclusive. I think not.

Look at my colored recosntruction of Teuta (i did not know the color) I think it is very possible that she had Blond Hair and Blue eyes, but i did not know! I know people from Albania the got dark blond Hair and blue Eyes, and i know other the got not. Maybe the ohter got ottomanian roots, i don't know!.

 

[BenGee171]

If you need a good grapic programm (absolut freeware) use PhotoFiltre... there are so much things you can do with, i think i don't need photoshop.

AAH,

That's a tranvestite isn't it?

 

[Notarzt]

AAH,

That's a tranvestite isn't it?

I didn't want to say it.
But I know how hard it is to draw something with the mouse.
A little tipp (i don't know if you use it): paint with 30-50% oppacity,
multiple colour-layers above each other make it look better.

ROFL!!! That is the funniest leaderhead I have ever seen!!! She looks like some Andy Warhol Zombie!

Und auf Detusch:
Ich lach mich tot! Das ist der lustigste Leaderhard, den ich je gesehen habe! Sie sieht wie ein Andy-Warhol-Zombie aus!

 

[BenGee171]

yes, i tried it but it is hard for the first time to get the right color... now i am checken google for pictures of ancient warrior i found some. espacialy gallic and roman.

I saw an Assyrian Horsearcher, i could make this UU with skinning the normal Horsearcher like i did before. I could be a Babylonian UU and replace one of their Bowman. Also i found Roman Skrimisher and Gallic ones and Gallic Cavallary with spears i could try to skin some of them.

 

[BenGee171]

i know she looks strange.

Hey Notarzt could you do designe this one:

 

[Notarzt]

Looks easy. An early ballista?
If the team wants it in the game.
only problem could be the animation.

 

[thamis]

We've got enough siege units in the planning for now, I think. We shouldn't add units for the sake of adding them. There's only so much you can do with siege.

 

[BenGee171]

yes you are right

 

[BenGee171]

Hey Notarzt what programm for 3D models do you use? i am currently downloading "blender", if i would know how to do that stuff i could give you some assistence. but there are some tutorials about that programm. i think i will learn it

 

[Shqype]

haha Bengee, thanks for trying to fix up the Teuta leaderhead. Teuta should have black hair.

Many people from Albania proper are "mixed." This is a result of 33 armed invasions throughout history, including almost 5 centuries of Ottoman occupation and influence. The remote mountains were more protected from this.

Those ancient skirmisher skins you made look absolutely great! Nice job on those

On weekends Laurino doesn't work on TAM, so send me whatever it is you'de like to implement, and I can do that
