@ bluntpencil
we were thinking of shifting the map slightly, i think 1 of kastors posts (page `1? ) had the one we would actually use, i'm not doing the mapping, so i cant answer any questions about it atm, as i havent even seen it.

about prisoners : i agree, certain warbands shouldnt take prisoners anyway ( like khorne, who are blood worshipping maniacs after all..).
but noone is actually doing all the coding and scripting and stuff yet

I've just set the gallery to public.

Schragnasher, I'd say you should move the grip on that axe down a bit and depending on the polycount maybe cut the haft down to 8 or 10 sides - the amount there at the moment is unnecessary.

 

[schragnasher]

yeah im goign to redo the handle neway, i cant seem to get it the right size, if always been bad with that when trying to make axe hafts

 

[Harlequin_]

oh, and it would be great if we politely ignored handgunners, as they would ruin gameplay.

 

[Harlequin_]

pope can we use ur halberds plz ?

 

[Lu Bu]

Pope gave permission to others to use his stuff for other mods a while ago. So you may use it!

 

[schragnasher]

Still trying to figure out how to remove town s and such, i don thtink the map editor can remove them. This is about as muchas the map as i could fit into the play area. The red area is the boundary.

 

[Harlequin_]

ok i (very ) quickly did a chaos great axe, and will make it look nice later when i can be bothered, but this is the work in progress on it:



and this is the picture i am basing it on:


it looks horrible at the moment, but moving the vertices is taking sooooo... long and i'm trying to kep the faces neat.

EDIT: the map is looking great so far schragnasher

 

[Thorgrim]

I'm a big Warhammer fan (though I don't collect any more) so I'm really looking forward to this mod. Maybe I can help out with some modelling too at some point?

Map is looking nice... you know you can move the borders? Just drag them around like dragging towns... I should make that more clear some how. Only way to delete towns is to use the unofficial editor / python or manually change the text files.

Keep up the good work

 

[schragnasher]

oh really....well ill have to make hte map much bigger then

I really wish i could fine a tutorial to import a mesh manually.....id like to use heightmap instead of doing it by hand. I have some nive heightmap tools.

 

[Thorgrim]

Your right, it has been suggested before and I should get onto that. I'll add heightmap importing to the next version.

 

[Kastor]

I like pie!
(srry i just changed this double post into something...er...different)

 

[Thorgrim]

Kastor: Thanks, I'd be happy to be on the team, though I cant promise to produce all that much since I seem to be working on 100 things at the moment unfortunately heh.

schragnasher: The new map editor is out with heightmap importing if you are interested it testing it

 

[Kastor]

hey havnt been online in a while srry

ive completed the chaos undivided troop advancement ladder now all i need is some armour and weapons spesific to the unit types to equip them with... right now chaos warriors in black armour w/black helmets dosn't look very chaos like

@Schragnasher: map looks damn good. thanks for the input and welcome onto the team!

dw once you get the towns ect into position just email me the map file and ill edit the towns and stuff myself

@Thorgrim: thanks goes to you too Thorgrim for making the Map editor.
and if you would like to help with modeling we could use some chaos armour...if your interested in being on the team just say so

EDIT: as you might have guessed look to my avatar for chaos armour refs

EDIT2: with the daemons thing, i think if i increased their level to maybe 30 or some high number like that then we could place them in the advancement table with their respectful chaos power it would just increase the experience & time needed to train them. (rather than taking 1000 exp to make a chaos follower into a bloodletter it would take 10,000 exp)

EDIT3:hmm....does anyone know how would i stop armour being picked up after battle using the unnoficcial editor? so that theres no way you could get it at all only the NPC's can have it...

 

[The Pope]

How did you double post 2 hours apart?

 

[Kastor]

hey!
since PtG is now set in Norsca i created a troop ladder to fit in with the area...

[Harlequin_]

nice unit tree, but no official chaos warriors ??

and i dunno if u can have 3 upgrade choices, i think t only works with 2 if ur using the unoficial editor.

mmmmmmm...repeater crossbow.
must find a way to get one of those in.
