damski.
 
Brilliant! Too bad I actually disabled his headmodel in the first encounter with him to keep his squiddy face a mystery to Jack.
But we'll get to see him plenty after CotBP. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />
 
I'll do head models for Beatrice and BeatriceA....that leaves Devlin to sort out for the main characters.
 
That's great, Damski! Of course you'll only ever get to see those heads during a self-dialog, which is not so frequently.
Of course in both Devlin quests, you'll eventually get to meet the brother/sister of the main character.
But most of that isn't coded yet and nobody is working on it either.
 
Some very great and good achievements in this thread! Nicely done Damski

Was there a Tutorial made for this ever?
 
Unfortunately not. Damski62 was going to train everybody who wanted to know,
but then he moved and got a bad internet connection and his graphics card died.
Now he occasionally posts here, but he did say that in about one and a half month,
he should be able to get back again.
 
I am about to upload the extended Hornblower quest, but I really would like, if it is possible, to have some modified soldiers uniform colours.
"Offic_eng_18"
"Soldier_Eng_18"
"Soldier_Eng2_18" through "Soldier_Eng6_18"

The coat should be dark green, the waistcoat a darker green and the trousers dark grey.
I know my picture is pretty "naff" (slang for rubbish!) but it is just to give an idea.
I have only coloured half of it in the hope that it will help show which parts are what.
The buttons can stay, by the way.

I realize that the "correct" models for Sharpe and his riflemen are being worked on, but wonder if this could be a quick fix for the time being, by just changing an existing model's colours. I know nothing about texturing so if this is a non-starter just say so. ;)

Jack if you are using the same models, then it is only a question of retexturing to make em look as you want them with dark green uniforms etc. I like your sketch btw :p

Re-Texturing is not hard :p Like all things it requires time, but it is fun.


Pieter thanks for the Info... I was mid way exporting characters before I went away for a while maybe I can finish up figuring it out on my own by the time Damski comes back, if not he will help when he does. (I just need to install the tools and all...which I am slowly doing)

Thanks Duke,
I do INDEED intend to get into learning texturing next, right now though I am finishing up the extended Hornblower/Sharpe's rifles quest and as Pieter is sneaking off :rolleyes: [joke] on one of his extended sea cruises :keith (AGAIN! At the end of the month) [another joke] I want it finished in the next day or so, so he can add it to the build.
So I doubt that I could learn enough in the time I have left.
 
Maybe you can convince Thomas the Terror to so something in the weekend.
Now that he's started his new education, he's pretty busy during the weeks.

I would very much like to be able to include your latest quest work into the modpack soon.
I'm thinking that before releasing the actual Build 14 Alpha 10, I might make a WIP release for testing.
It'd be great to include as much as possibe in that release,
so we can test and fix it and ensure that the final Build 14 Alpha 10 will be really quite good.

If you release the code files soon, we can always put the new soldier skins in later. :yes

O.K. I will upload in the next two days (life is crazy right now so I can't be certain which day) I will "turn" the cannon in the game for the time being.
 
Yep; that too. And how about the former 3D modeler becoming "big bad dictator"? :razz
 
cant you do both?, i mean, its not like dictating takes loads of time, its basicly just ordering people around xD:

but then you would have to order yourself around xD:
 
Well, I manage coding, compiling and dictating all at the same time. Just not modeling anymore. :razz
