Hi everyone

I meet a problem with a head I Would like to add to a norse axeman I should use in ethnicae ...

Usually, I don't have too many problems to make what I wish but this time, no way ... If someone could help me to fix it, plizzzzzzzzzz !!!

here a link to the problematic head/unit. I included the blender file where the head is + the unit .nif ( which working fine without the head = norseaxeman.nif ) + the unit .nif wich crash the game ( norseaxeman2.nif ) ...

Thanks a lot !!!


what I would like to get :

PS : I think a Xbow-Rider is an excellent idea ! Bravo


EDIT : I have too a blender file where I cut everything except the beard I rigged to the head ( to avoid the spine which the beard bone is originally rigged to ) ... If needing any part of the files, just ask

Here you go. I got it to work by deleting all vertex groups before exporting the head from Blender.

Well, now I did, thanks and apologies.

You are a 3D god !

Thanks a lot SaibotLieh ! You save my early viking units project !

by deleting all vertex groups, do you mean the ones in the menu down left where are described the vertex ? or is it somewhere else ?

Can you send me back the corrected blender file I can study to compare with mines to watch all my mistakes ? Thanks


If I can help you in any texturing job, just ask, it will be a pleasure

Wasn't a great deal really, just experience from my our prior failures.

In this screenshot I've highlighted the menu I meant:

Spoiler :

Just hit "Delete" until all entries (mostly BIP somethings) are gone, then you can use the mesh as you did for your viking.

Thanks a lot for the tip ! and thank you for the screenshot : big and clear

I would like to request some reskins of the 54th Infantry from Legends of Revolution. I would like to have skins that change the colour of the uniform to light green, dark green, light brown, and dark brown. The plainer the uniform the better it would be.

Thanks.

I need a few buttons done for my mod. I need a button for the Spetsnaz unit, the Sniper unit, and the Special Forces unit, along with a picture of a scope for the Gun Sights tech I'm adding. The unit artwork can be found at the link.

I realize I should put this in the unit requests thread, but my request is quite bit and hopefully there are people here with interest in elder scrolls lore and knowledge in graphics...
Moderator Action: Sorry, but we need a bit tidiness in these forums. Thread merged with the unit request thread.

mod development thread
So, unit graphics are the biggest thing my mod is still lacking. - I can possibly use for some of them units from existing mods... suggestions are appreciated...


I have added 4 new unitclasses:

generally mages in the elder scrolls are supposed to throw fire, frost and shock spells at enemies.

caster - the basic, early mage.
battlemage - later eras mage
conjurer - supposed to "conjure" something (skeleton, ghost, beast, daedra - your choice) which appears from nowhere and fights.
mounted warmage - same mage, throws spells at the enemy.

khajiit units -
shortly put, khajiit are feline humanoids, and there are many forms of them, from small cats to huge fearsome tigers.
Needed khajiit unit graphics :

dagi - some semi-humanoid small cat, which casts spells.
cathay - "a jaguar with a sword"
senche - a lion (ok not needed since i'll use the lion graphics)
pahmar - a tiger (probably not needed too)
senche rider - a feline humanoid which rides a huge tiger\ lion (think of those warg riders in lord of the rings)

(step 2?) I also have some special units for each civ,but I think I'll wait before listing them...

- and eventually it'll be better to have unique graphics for the units of at least part of the civs - orcs, dunmer, redguard, argonians (since those look much different from the others)

I have got e special request. I will use it as an building, but I do not know, if there is a "buildinggraphics-request"-tread, therefore I post here. Could anyone create a model for an Enigma? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enigma_machine
For me it is less important to be realistic, I would prefere a model that shows the rotors with the letters.

Something like this would be great:

Maybe a simple and very quickly made step and request for somebody, who knows how to do that:

You know the great legionary unit "dig for victory" here: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=313724 made by zenspiderz.

I'd like to have this legionary unit holding the Pilum and not the sword (when idle)! And in a manner, the legions did (straight shield)! Like that (perhaps the arm with the pilum nearer to the body):

I think it's only a change in the .kfm file. This would be necessary, because lots of pilum units with different skins use this kfm.

I would be overgrateful!

 

[Barbarian King]

If any unit makers out there are feeling ambitious, I would like to request two units: a horse-drawn cannon and a congreve rocket. I am making a mod/scenario that these would be a nice addition to.

Age of Empires 3?

 

[Gem Hound]

If any of you unit makers are really ambitious, I need someone to fix a unit's art.

That is the unit. The dreaded Huscarl. I've been looking at this thing for a while in NifSkope and can't figure out why it likes to draw lines and brown shapes all over the map. I also can't figure out why the legs are not working. It also has a bent arm and many other problems.

@SamSniped: I got sthg for you. Your buttons. I hope you want to use them, if not, I am not angry or sthg like that They should be similar to the original graphic art.

Could someone clip the wings of this FfH succubus please? Basically, she should be human.

As OGI continues to grow and gain more popularity, the request has come in for more land units. So, I'm working on adding several tank units. I'm having difficulty finding the graphics for the following 3 tanks:

1. M8 Liberty
2. M46 Patton
3. M41 Walker Bulldog

Does anyone know of any existing graphics for these 3 tanks? If not I would like to make a request for their development.

Very Respectfully,

 

[Dumanios]

I think Varietas Delactate has graphics for the Patton. Not so sure about the others.
