Posted a selection of Theremin sounds to Greg ... for the Crawling Brain, I also suggested a movement sound could be a wet slippery slug sort of slithering sound.

Also e-mailed this to Ken ... who suggested to post it here ... ummm ... so I will :bl

Quote:
Regarding additional canine units ... if you DL ...

Escape from Zombie Island 2 by KingArthur (I thing Greg has it) there are War Dog and Dire Wolf units ...

I've been thinking about the New Reno ... ummm ... it may sound stupid but there is a Bond Unit and BlackOps also a recent unit found in the Creation and Customisation is a Bond with SMG ... could these be of any use to flavour the early Mafia civ? ... Also there is a leather babe armed with chainsaw (post apocalysish) ... talk to Greg he has them.

Back to additional Canines ... in War Hammer 2 is a Flesh Hound and Temple Dog (think very large vicious dogish) which could be used as a mutant dog?

Werner, I like the idea of the Bond with an smg, the babe with the chainsaw and the mutie dog. Like em a lot. :bs

We can use the Bond as one of the UU's for the families, The Made Man.

And yeah we sure can use a leather clad babe with a chainsaw. :ad

And the muties need their own style of nuke pooch. :bs


Keep these great ideas coming my friend. :tu

just wondering if armies are going to be used ... and I've commented already that I don't think an army should be an option for a goody pop.

Anyway it would be better to have a generic army graphic that would fit more with the game.

Generic as Bots (and new Creature civ idea) would also be using it.

Werner, actually I wanted each civ to have their own unique armies that were able to be built when they built their civ's equivalent of the Pentagon Small Wonder.

I think army graphics would work for the spawning effect ... however I believe that those that are created in the field end up being the default ... and unfortunately that default is used by all :sad

Well, In the editor I can disable the base armies from appearing, and the only armies that would ever appear are the ones that are built, is that what you wish to happen?

Not sure ... I like the in game excitement when a leader is formed in battle.

But when the Leader is converted to an army in the field, is it possible for different army graphics to be used?

If so, then that would be cool ... else you'd get different army icons running around which just looks wrong.

Primarily my comment was about getting an Army from the goody hut ... not sure I like that :fr

However others may have differing opinions. :AH

Greg: Would it be possible to shrink the Hummer? It seems unnecissarily large.

Werner, no if converted, only the base gfx is used. Only built armies can be different from each other.

And we can't do anything about armies popping out of the goody huts. :bs

Greg, thanks bud, but we already have a Ghoul Melee unit. :bs


As for the unit matrix I sent you, all you have to do is cross reference the weapon down the side with the armor type up topside and you will see 95% of the units are on that txt file. :bs


For Example;

R Combat Armor
I
F
L
E

So as this example shows we have the Unit Combat Armor Rifle. :bs

I would think that if you plan to replace a Barbarian unit , that should be dona now...such as the Squid.
...Not sure where you are placing Skeech...

By The Way, I managed to upload the Extra Unit files for you, so you should be receuving Five E-Mails with Links to them. Let me know if you get them ok...the Files will be there for Seven Days.

Greg, got them all.

As for the skreech he will find a comfy home in the critters civ.

And the squid has been implemented also. Sorry about that. :bs

Ken, Be sure and compare the Squid to these latest files I sent you because, I have forgotten if those Squid Files I first sent you are up to date...I believe they were but just want to make sure.

Just thought I'd post this picture I found ... just to give some inspiration to all you unit makers :AH

Image

Also would it help the sound qusetion if I get together a list of all sound files associated with the units in the current patch?

Yes it does, and I have the model, but no takers on making it yet.

In fact I have models of all those critters but the Brahmin that need done, including all three flavors of Gecko.
