Yay teh obelisk :D
Seeing as this is a mod made specifiacally for spring and a conversion from TA maybe you should make the model skins slightly more detailed? At the moment they look like a they're pretty plain.

we want more detail

They are not "skins", they are "fucking shitty face-by-face textures".

I do not know how to skin, UVMap or make anything but cartoonishly silly textures. If anybody would like to texture the fuck out of these they can be my guest...

Heh, at least you're honest.

hahaha

heh... im sure u could find someone to skin those... there's loads of ppl here who know howto uv and texture... and even more ppl who want to learn all that

I can UV units but am no expert at texturing.

I am still quite intimidated by the process.

But those models look great! if you said they were UV-mapped i'd believe ya.

I think that they are pretty good. UV mapping isn't important as long as the unit looks ok.

Texxes in WD look nice, whaddya talking about?

...unless Maestro does them all lol

I learned how to UV map with unwrap, but the problem comes with trying to put together the 3so with upspring, importing the shit etc etc -- and my models are fairly archaically made (using some 5 year old modelling program that nobody has ever heard of).

the obelisk looks weird just sticking out of the ground like that maybe have it like the one from C&C renegade with some sort of base to make it look better and give it some height

What archaic modeler do you use? maybe I can use it...

SpikedHelmet · Post by **SpikedHelmet** » 27 Feb 2006, 00:04

Amapi3D v4.1.5

It's free, but almost impossible to find.

SpikedHelmet · Post by **SpikedHelmet** » 27 Feb 2006, 00:15

I think the lack of "detail" is due more to my low settings at the time i took the screenshot. For instance:...

I made the model a bit more detailed.. well, actually I just made it not a bunch of boxes stacked on one another. Now it actually looks like something a little menacing. But I am not going to make the Renegade Obelisk.

What about the Tib Sun one?

Otherside · Post by **Otherside** » 27 Feb 2006, 00:43

wud be cool to animate the obelisk like so if not just make the obelisk have a base like the fully opened obelisk

Otherside, that's the tiberian sun one.

Personally I like the tiberian dawn (original) one better, and we should try to keep all the stuff from the original C&C in this mod. A tiberian sun mod can always be done later, and then people can mix stuff all they want.

Looking bloody good mate, keep up the work.

Personally i would be satisfied with c&c units with spring playability, we don't have to have it play like c&c do we?

Flare · Post by **Flare** » 27 Feb 2006, 16:59

He said teck level 1 was dawn and tech 2 was sun, so he may make the tiberian sun obelisk for tech level 2

SpikedHelmet · Post by **SpikedHelmet** » 27 Feb 2006, 23:44

I will maintain "homage" to C&C's originality but the point of this is to replicate C&C with Spring's gameplay.

And yes. All units will be included, including the Tiberian Sun Obelisk.

SpikedHelmet · Post by **SpikedHelmet** » 27 Feb 2006, 23:45

And when I am done "Level 1" (ie, Tiberian Dawn build tree) I will release it as a beta with just original C&C units. Then I will do Tiberian Sun units, and release that.
