How difficult is it to skin a variant? I was thinking of something more chrome looking for an "advanced" (upgrade) version.

Depends on how good you are in using graphic programs. The skin of the mg is the machine_gun_64.dds file. Make a save copy of it and play around a bit, you will see how it changes the look of the unit.

If you want to have a chrome look, you will need another skin file, the gloss map. I can change the unit to use such a file, but I think it would be better that you change the machine_gun_64.dds file first so that the gloss map fits to this new texture.

Oh that looks really good. However could you move up the Z axis so it hovers around Airship or Helicopter Gunship height. Right now its at sea level and I would like to use it more like a Helicopter or Blimp.

Thanks! :goodjob:

Good to hear that the unit works for you. You can change the Z axis easily yourself with NifSkope. Just choose transform -> edit on the ballon node and then change the Z value.

Could you combine an Aircraft Carrier with a Zeppelin to make a Flying Aircraft Carrier?

Please use the one with neutral skin (no markings).

Here are some concept drawings ...

Greetings all^^
I've been away from Civ4 and civfanatics for two years... sorry about that >.<

anyway... then already my greatest wish had been a dragon unit.
indifferent to the two current ones however I hoped for one that walks on 4 legs, not on two.
Also I hoped for one that has both a flying animation (like the wyvern that currently exists) and a walking one.

It then already had opened many talks, discussions, etc... But its chirstmas time^^ and after two years maybe there is someone around who is working on or could work on a unit like this^^

What do you guys think?
Can i hope for something like this?^^ or do you maybe even know someone who might be up to the task? I'm sure many fans of FfH and RioE and other fantasy mods of Civ4 would love a modle like thsi^^

Could someone make a Meteor Hammer like in AoE3?

Basically its a Chinese Knight holding a Flail/Mace.

Thanks in advance! :goodjob:
 
Hm, I think you are right. Maybe the hardy pionier from civilization 4: Colonization will do?
 
I've attached a couple workers that I've found in various mods. They seem fairly medieval and European to me. Bakuel has also made some much higher quality medieval Russian and Hungarian workers which can be found in the download database.
 
I searched everywhere, but couldn't find an SAS Commando model in the uniform they are best known in (through online games, Counter Strike mostly :D ): completely black with a gas mask.

The closest I can think of is the Navy Seal model as the base, with a black texture like in this pack by mechaerik for example (2nd picture bottom right, Modern Infantry folder):

Weapon could be replaced by Mp5. And instead of the nightvision goggles, a gas mask should be added. That just makes the SAS! :D

For example this Stalker unit by asioasioasio has a gas mask:

Maybe mechaerik and asio³ allow the use of their work for this unit (and if no other copyrights affected). That would be awesome!
 
Are there any robot units around? I know about the giant robot from Next War(or whatever that future mod that comes with BTS is called) but are there any smaller infantry like robot?

Basically something like this:

http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=164543

Are there any other robot units? I have had the hardest time searching. Whenever I type in 'civilization 4 robot unit' into the search all I get is stuff about civ 5's giant death robot.

Anyway are there are graphics for robot droid like units for civilization 4?
 
Did you search the download-section, in the folder "Scifi-Units?" I think there are some robots. I don't know, how much, because I am not interested in, but maybe you will be successful.

Edit: I am sorry, I did not read that if was about small infantry. But maybe, there will be somethin suitable in this section, to.

Concerning Outrigger and Catamaran, I can see if I find time for this this weekend. I would be interested in some models, to, and I have some ideas how to do this. But I can't primise that they will work.
