M&B Daimyo Wars - Modellers desperately needed

[Mitsuhide]

We currently only have one modeller (Matt G) who is not actually in the MOD team, but said he will give us any models he make that are appropriate. If any moddelers could just take a look at the main Daimyo Wars thread to see if it interests you and PM me if you are. If anyone has any friends or family that are decent modellers, ask if they are interested, as this mod will not get far at all without any modellers. Please consider this request =D

We also require coders, or anyone who is good at editing the .txt files in the native folder, as my knowledge with those files are not the greatest.

Thanks for your time everyone!

As I said in my intro post, my 3D skills are undeveloped, and I've only had experience in Maya, but I want to learn 3DSMax, and I'd be willing to do some simple modelling including some weapons and possibly architecture (in the future), and those little city icons for the main map (if they're moddable), especially if someone like MattG were to give me a crash course in 3DSMax.

But don't let this discourage other prospective modellers! This mod looks to be very well done if we can simply gather the resources.

Another possibility is appealing to another sengoku themed mod for models and resources, such as the Half-Life Bushido mod. As a sidenote, the Bushido mod asked permission from Creative Assembly to use the music from Shogun: Total War in their mod, and it was granted, as you can witness from Bushido's main page. I think it's quite possible that Creative Assembly would do the same for us once we've made some progress.

I could model a little bit while the leaders of the Roman mod make up a precise to-do list (I'd really like such a thing, you know ). I'm only 14 though, so don't expect too much from me. Here's some work I've done. (posted that in the Roman mod thread as well)

Here is the close-up of the face of a Medieval thief I made some while ago, it's based on a tutorial for a female face from Dan Ablan's Inside Lightwave 7, that's why it looks a little female-erish.
Here's the whole body, not rigged though.

Some renders of a Roman temple I made for a cinematic for a ex-Roma Victor clan.

Here are some short cinematics, too bad the water of the fountain in the plaza vid looks bad.

Here 2 renders of a fantasy sword I made. No textures as you can see though.

Falcata I made for the Roman mod.

Pilum I made for the Roman mod (but it won't be included)

This one still needs work on the helmet and the skirt.

So, what do you think?

EDIT: Forgot about my Audi TT (that I didn't finish though). Here's a quick and dirty render.

Hello Mitsuhide! i'm wondering if i can help a little bit in this mod? but i may be inactive due to the Roman mod, i was wondering if we can work "side-to-side" ?

 

[Mitsuhide]

Henderson, that would be a great idea and will make the two mods feel closer and not as a competition. I also understand you are very busy with the Roman mod, so that is okay.

Very nice models Lhorkan! If you want, you could just try one or two models for Dimyo Wars and you can decide wether you want to continue. Maybe you could try one of the following weapons. Or try a standard Samurai helmet (cant remember the name) if you wish

or a yari spear

If the mod teams are going to help each other then I don't mind helping out for this mod too.
I'm a programmer, but I also do some moddeling.

IT HAS BEEN DEAD FOR 4 YEARS!! Can you please stop resurrecting dead topics!?!?

Generally, resurrecting long dead threads is frowned upon, as is posting only a phrase.

Just ignore him people, it'll eventually die...
