[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="16" id="3284449"]Omnimmotus I missed the part where you asked for a mesh. I'll post it here, but if you have maya can i send it using that instead? The conversion process is far from perfect to get it to max.Then you can convert it how you want it for max.[/quote] Either way would work, or both. I have access to both Max and Maya. Having the Maya files might be best so I can try multiple routes to conversion, and always go back to the clean and funct

It's only for practice, and I'd like to get used to the skinning aspect and process for Fallen Enchantress. I was considering having a strip of cloth that comes down the back from the shoulder piece rigged to one of the cape bone chains as well, and that would certainly require skinning. This shoulder piece may be where I'm starting, but it's only the beginning of what I plan to do. [e digicons]^_^[/e] (And I'll probably end up doing a lot of things I d

Actually, if you examine the basic female model closely, clothing is part of the design and shape. The breasts are held by clothing and the area between the breasts is flat rather than going inward, and if you rotate the camera you can see some cleavage where clothing is holding the breasts built directly into the mesh. Hmm... maybe that's enough discussing the exact shape and nature of Sovereign breasts for now. [e digicons]O:)[/e] Right now I'm quickly creating something fa

I'm shocked that there's any limit to people taking an interest, haha. Sometimes I think people don't realize the sheer amount of potential in Fallen Enchantress, as well as the Elemental series as a whole. It got off to a rough start, but could very well become one of the finest game series of all time. You know, this may seem sad, but you know what the best way to grow the Fallen Enchantress armor and clothing modding community would be? Make a nude mode for the women an

Thank you, Heavenfall! I cannot express how grateful I am for your help, and for going out of your way to set that up for me. I'm not used to communities being so helpful and responsive, haha. I'll work with what you've given me as I have time, and if I run into any other questions or issues, I'll ask for your advice. Thank you again, and keep up the great work on helping the community and developing Stormworld. [e digicons]^_^[/e]

Reply to Twilight of the Arnor Gets Editors Choice at GameZone in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

I'll be purchasing Twilight in the next month of so. I've been scrambling for money for the last half year, but I'll FINALLY be able to complete my Galactic Civilizations II collection and play with the marvelous new tools. This will be the first game purchase I've made for half a year now. :) Oh boy, I can't wait to sit down and relax into a nice universe of conquest. It'll be a nice vacation from the rest of the things I've been dealing with.

No box? :SNIFF!: That's disappointing. Slightly. Not really a big issue when compared to the game itself, but... I like boxes. Oh well.

Reply to Galactic Civilizations II: Twilight of the Arnor is here! in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

I do hope there's a good boxed copy I can acquire without much difficulty. I already own the original and Dark Avatar, but I'd LOVE to have the nice box adorning my desk. (And I'd really rather not pay much extra for it with the economy as it is.)

Reply to Galactic Civilizations II: Twilight of the Arnor is here! in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

By Poseidon's fist! Excellent! Since the economy is having a little trouble right now, and I'm just starting to really feel the pressure, I won't be able to purchase this right away. However, as soon as I've got a better hold on things, you can expect this to be at the top of my list of things I must get! Keep up the good work. I can't wait to finally finish off my Galactic Civilizations collection. After that, I'll be interested to see what you come up with next. :)

[quote]I think some people seriously need to re-think their priorities if they are upset about pushing the launch back a week. I think most people would agree that the currently downloadable BETA is release-quality by most standards. So anyone who is that impatient can play the game right now. Personally, I just wanted to have extra time to polish the computer AI further, make sure all the new stuff (cut scenes, music, etc.) were fitted in just right. We could definitely have relea

Reply to Twilight of the Arnor enters final gamma testing! in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

FYI, I haven't purchased the game yet and won't until its released, and I voted that they should delay it as long as necessary to get it as polished as possible. I know I'm going to buy it, so I'd like the product to be as nice as in can be when I do. And it's not like I don't have the time to wait. <3 Stardock. No hassles and top quality. Couldn't ask for better.

Reply to Twilight of the Arnor enters final gamma testing! in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

Oh baby, I'll be looking forward to this. You'll have to pardon me for not keeping up, but a few questions: I seem to remember hearing that custom races can have custom tech trees modded up, is that correct? I also seem to remember that this new expansion comes with far better scenario creation. That I can't wait for. However, will it be easier to give custom races custom dialog in this one? I might have just done it incorrectly, but when I tried to change ID numbers and incorporate cus

Reply to 3D Universe in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Unfortunately, that creates a new world of possibilities, and would require a complete overhaul of the system, which might break the game. It is an interesting prospect, though. What about a three layer universe? Might work. You ever played Star Control 3? That might give you an idea of how a 3D universe could work. I have to admit, this idea of a 3D universe worries me, but I get scared easily

Reply to What are your ship naming schemes? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

I play as a custom Atlantians race and base my whole scheme on a rough neutral sea race concept. All my ships are then named after sea creatures and similar, varying from real to fictional.

Reply to 3D Ship combat in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Watching the battles has helped me on occasion. It makes losses which seem unexplained feel real. (When you realize they've got 30 missles and you've got barely any ECM.) Then you can scramble to churn out a new boat with tons of ECM and kung-fu grip. (And then watch the enemy get decimated and obliterated in combat and feel good about yourself.) I do wish there was more to it, and some Orion fans I know refuse to move from Orion 2 to Galactic Civ 2 due to the lack of tactical combat. P
