Its waaghtastic!

 

[Virote_Considon]

Sweet! The Orks are gonna be great fun to play!

 

[aaglo]

My goal is to make this mod fun to play. Including orks

 

[odintheking]

Aaglo makes this mod fun. I think we should call it, "The Aaglo and Friends Funky Hammer Mod"

 

[aaglo]

I think not

 

[LMR]

"The Aaglo and Friends Funky Hammer Mod"

Sounds like a kids tv show

@stormy: i've gone green

 

[Stormrage]

Yay! Dave is green! Now the rest of ya

Can you mebbe make a little icon, like the Fallout guys have? An imperial eagle, or a servo skull, or somefink?

 

[LMR]

Didnt one of the other guys post a icon somewhere?

 

[aaglo]

what icon? where would you use that?

 

[LMR]

you would put it somewhere on your avatar. have a look at some of the members of the fallout mod team, they have a small symbol on their avatars. flamand's one, i think...

 

[aaglo]

I'm a member of that team, but I don't have any logos on mine... and my avvie propably says it all

BTW, looted vehicles are done:

Thanks for the loot!

So, what's left for da orks:
A puny nob.
And a mekboy.
And a big mek.
And a battlewagon.
And a loota.
And a skarboy.
And a def kopta (that should be fun to do ).
And an outrider.
And a hunta.
And a madboy.
And a cyboar boy (that should be horrible to do ).
And a trappa.
And a small shooty boat.
And a big shooty boat.
And a Blood Axe Kommando.
And Ghazghkull.
And Nazdreg.

What's that... mere 17 orky units... that's nothing

Wait... last time I did that list, it was mere 18 units... and I've done what... 5 units since...

 

[Stormrage]

Ghazghkull and Nazdreg are going to be for regicide or? Sorry if I missed that part..

Striketrough : just put "s" in the brackets

Can`t you just convert your orc boar rider to a cyboar? Or you don`t have the files anymore?

 

[Virote_Considon]

Whoa... This is one green thread!

 

[aaglo]

Lizzy looks like an ork, but he really is James Bond in disguise (and what a disguise that is!)

Ghazk and Nazd... I don't know. But they're sort of "secondary work" until told otherwise. I think one boss should suit all... for the epic mod.

Thanks 'bout the info. I'll forget the tip tough, whenever I'll need them

I have all my older models in my pc. And yep, I can partially convert the cyboar by just changing the boar texture and add somekind of boltheads & the like in the model (which is not necessarily that simple task, but nothing I haven't done before).
And many of my older models will do a fine starting point for various klan-specific units (trappas, huntas, blood axe kommandoz, etc.)

 

[aaglo]

Long time - no preview

Here's what I thought for the outrider.
It's longer than the regular bike.
It's also much low ridin' than da regular bike.
And it's most likely - fasta than da regular bike. Maybe I should add some chequers to the rear-sides?

Also, I think that I should propably remove the other set of "spare-klips" from the "trunk". And maybe replace it with... something?

 

[LMR]

Ghazghkull was going to be a Warlord, replacing the Warboss for the Goffs, but i dont know about Nazdreg, i dont remember requesting him

 

[Stormrage]

Um.. tracked vehicles don`t exactly scream.. "speed", you know? Even red ones.. How bout making it a trike?

 

[aaglo]

Have you ever driven snowmobiles? They're pretty damn quick - chequer pattern also helps

And also - I haven't seen a pic of an ork bike with no treads.

Also - I originally started making a double-wheeled one, but I rejected that since I noticed that there are no ork bikes with no treads... and I don't have that design left anymore...

EDIT: About the trike-design: that's actually not a bad idea at all I think...
