Anyone has an at least half finished unit that one can experiment with a bit ?

*BUMP*

Come on people! Can't anyone contribute a tiny bit to spring; These developers have given YOU so much!!! Personally, I've IM'd a few people on the forum that seem to have superb modeling skills. Out of those IMs, zero responses. Not even a single 'interested' one. WTF People! This has to be at least as annoying to SJ as it is to me :)

Sorry, i am not a unit maker, so i cant help there.

But i remember seeing a kbot on unit universe years ago that would fit the description... It was a multi-barrelled merl launching kbot (4 or 6 barrels on the back, would fire salvos) that surely could be scripted to fit the demands...

I know this is technically the right forum for it... but you might get mroe bites posting this in the Mods forum... as that's where the people making units seems to hang out...

I would happily contribute a model, but i cant script for crap. Can anyone script my model? it can be a "team effort" thing

GrOuNd_ZeRo · Post by **GrOuNd_ZeRo** » 30 Aug 2005, 04:58

I was gonna make this model, but things are distracting me...i'll leave a note for my self for tomorrow.

The unit will be called: Revolver, it will be a Crasher-ish frame with 2 revovling rocket launchers on each side of it's shoulder, no arms and bird like legs, it will have to reload after every 12 shots.

well, i posted this unit in the Generic Connecter Blocks( ahem....uh lego) Mod forum, but someone suggested i post it here because you dev folks are looking for a heavy armor kbot. It isnt a kbot really, it rolls around on one wheel...(that can be changed, though)...and has ammo belts feeding massive SMGs

GrOuNd_ZeRo · Post by **GrOuNd_ZeRo** » 31 Aug 2005, 03:40

Well, here is the Fourty Four, a Kbot with Revolver style launchers.

I am still trying to fix the script, and finding a more suitable walk script, if ZW wants to pimp the script he can go right ahead :)

hm.. that unit makes justice to the request.
Its Arm rigth?, (it looks like so).

GroundZero: Kudos, that looks very promising

GrOuNd_ZeRo · Post by **GrOuNd_ZeRo** » 31 Aug 2005, 15:45

Well thank you :)

It just needs a decent script...it works fine in unitviewer but not in spring...grrr...

Post by SJ » 31 Aug 2005, 16:22

It looks good enough that i can start using it for some testing at least as long as it can move and fire. So if you could post a work in progress version it would be nice.

GrOuNd_ZeRo · Post by **GrOuNd_ZeRo** » 01 Sep 2005, 01:32

It works now so you can play around with it now.

Would you like my to post it on FU?

[edit]

I uploaded it at http://www.fileuniverse.com/?p=showitem&ID=1422 and can be downloaded freely by any users, it's nothing spectacular, it fires rockets that do as much damage as a guardian, it fires 12 rockets in 12 seconds and need 6 seconds to reload...

SJ, feel free to modify anything :)

Ok here is a small video of what it might look at with some new tags. (note still lots of work before those tags works well in all situations)

Nifty! Somewhat reminds me of some kind of weapon from Ground Control.

GrOuNd_ZeRo · Post by **GrOuNd_ZeRo** » 01 Sep 2005, 17:03

That's rather neat!

is it possible to adjust the spread radious so we could have MLRS/Artillery in the realistic mods? that'd be neat :)

Min3mat · Post by **Min3mat** » 01 Sep 2005, 18:58

whats its range? ~crasher
its for ARM right? yes
do u just stick it in TASPING~ or in mods? in TASPRING~
btw this thing in numbers could FINALLY be a counter to goliaths! the damage it deals is awesome! if it were a bit taller you could use it with spiders to surround a krog and finish it
