Yeah, me too. I tried to delete it but it's moderator only. I guess I'll have to pester someone.

Sorry for my absence of doing this today, I had to work and make a list for another forum.

MAP ICONS PREVIEW

A couple of the already implemented map icons. I finished most of them today, but I'm open for suggestions, ideas, etc.

 

[kurjajuur]

Wow very very nice!

 

[Bava]

Just want to say thats a great looking mod! (a little hard to find though  )


btw, your spartans are historical accurate, the ones with the pylos helmet and cloak are ~ 350 BC, before and after they were
armoured to the teeth (corinthian helmet + muscle cuirass) AFAIK.


Edit: Here something for your inspiration, a RTW mod depicting the Persian War, 50 years off your mods timeframe but they have
some VERY nice looking hoplites (especially spartans and argives)

Thanks a lot, I'll check that out. Yeah I know they used the corinthian helmet/cuirass, then went over to lighter equipment, then back to heavy. I haven't read Thucydides or Xenophon in a while, but if I recall it right the athenians were even more reluctant toward new technologies. The Osprey series do emphasize the use of pylos a lot during the war though. I gotta cross that with Thucydides sometime, hopefully I'll get an approximate timeframe.

 

[Voutare]

Damn...

Yeah, I'll get to work now.

 

[Boy_suicide]

Those are the greatest map icons I've seen so far. Kudos ten times over.

 

[Merlkir]

very impressive map icons, VERY detailed!

 

[Lynores]

Thanks all.

I was just wondering if it's possible to script an icon change, depending on the player's allegiance? I was thinking something among the lines of neutral/merc, athenian and spartan. Anybody ever tried triggering that?

EDIT: Didn't yoshi do something similar in his pirates mod? Except it was position based? Or am I just awaken for too long 

 

[Yoshiboy]

My system was based off the change between the player riding a horse and player without a horse. Sadly no way to do it really.

Ah yeah, you switched horses for boats. I remember now.

I still can not believe on my eyes. There is a greek mod, and it is almost done!
Thanks, God to had kept me alive to see this day! 

 

[Drusus]

[Voutare]

Yeah, thank me for getting it moved. I've been working quite a bit today, and I will get pictures tommorow.

I've been painting the house.

Sorry about that, my problem was that all I really knew how to do is model.

Looks good btw, let me know if there is anything I can make for you.

It would be great if someone would make me these three weapons. I have been working a lot on animations and new armor meshes, I haven't found the time to make these yet:

A couple screenshots of new meshes. Just finished the black one right now. The plate hue might come a little lighter in the release though.

very nice textures !

 

[tsoum]

I think that you should notte that Spartans never rode horses...

Also I was quite bored to read 6 pages of post so I'll ask: Who are the enemies? Are they gonna be like they were; city state and all of them enemies between them? or will there be an outer enemy?

 

[Eisenhouwer]

Superb models Lynores! I love the armor.
