I know that feeling too well.

Alright, so I adjusted the textures to the new model. Hopefully they'll look better now.

Can you please upload the uvw template as well? Thanks.

I suppose the fastest way to avoid that ^^ would be to completely reassing the bones to the mesh that has been rescaled and adjusted accordingly. It would still be a lot of work but way less than making a whole new model.

Yes, please. I'll then make the new texture. This time hopefully without unnecessary stretching.

Seems like Max can't find the textures assigned to the model. When you open Material Editor there should be a Multi-material texture assigned to the model. In this case there should be only one material defined with name that goes something like 'relic.material_choppa_nob_rare' iirc. (The actual mod...

It's the choppa model from here: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B6RDoPr2MDlSYmxEQlFiRDd4aFE/edit It doesn't matter which one you pick, they're both the same. But since you'd already be messing up with the wrapping, could I ask a favor of you and have you make the blade a bit narrower if that's the ...

*sigh* I was afraid it might do this. I'm also afraid that without a better unwrap the textures will just keep stretching. Once I have the means I'll fix it and the textures should then be much easier to make. But if you want to try adjusting it now here's the link: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B...

Wierd stuff going on with the textures in DOW. I actually rendered the template when my computer still worked, though the unwraping was done really terribly. Don't know what Relic was doing. I guess they just never bothered adjusting it since it never got in the game. Post a picture of it so we can ...

I think their DPS and price is fine. The only problem is their survivability. They need an ability of some sort that will cover their retreat if necessary. Or perhaps get a 50% worship heal as a daemon infected unit? lol yeah maybe we should add extra worship for all units in chaos army... so they ...

Speaking of Storm Bolters I was going through my files and noticed the normals on Apo's Bolter had strange reflections. I updated the link with fixed normals. The light should now look more realistic.

I don't know the answer either, but personally I like the non-glowing version better.

I've been fiddling a bit with the acolyte texture and made this https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B6RDoPr2MDlSMDBVYU5iOEJ6MGM/edit . There'd be more than just what I put there, obviously. The bracers need some attention for instance. But I wanted to put it here for you anyway, and again if I could ask...

Is Painboy's heal considered as regeneration?

Personally I feel Eldar heroes are really strong especially thanks to their crowd conTROLLing abilities. But because of how demanding it is to play Eldar they don't get to show their full potential very often.

I think David-CZ ( might be wrong ) found an unused, curved Ork Knife somewhere in the files, that could be resized and used. I think you're referring to http://dawnofwar.info/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=279&p=7770#p7770 . Yeah, I suppose that would do. They'd still look orky but with a new t...

Glad I could help.

Hopefully I'll get back to work next month and finally be able to finish all the stuff I've had in mind. Perhaps we could even work on something together at some point.

I guess I just never paid enough attention to it. Anyhow, I don't think they should do damage when crushed. But then again, I don't know if the game recognizes the difference.

Dark Riku wrote:That's how it is right now already... :/

But the damage is practically unnoticeable.

Since you can't simply toggle whether a unit walks over or around them they should generally do damage only if targeted if any at all. Getting damaged for allowing the game to use it's own pathfinding would be stupid.

I suppose you want to make the hood appear as if made out of the same material as the sleeves. In that case I'd check if there are other textures used on the hood as well. From what you wrote I'd suspect the specular and dirt texture are messing things up. If team colors are pale try putting full co...

I agree a damage to vehicles wouldn't work at all. Setting the place on fire instead of simply exploding sound pretty good though.

I've been wondering whether it'd be a good idea if the barrels dealt more damage when exploding. It seems they were initially intended to influance the fights but as it is now they don't really do anything.

Yeah, you have to use the alpha for that. But you also have to check the transparency in Santos' Tools or Max since the model has to know how to use the alpha. Unfortunately you can set it only on or off, no gradient support if I'm not mistaken. Shouldn't be a problem in this case though.

Sadly the fixed textures I reuploaded in the archives along with the models were omitted in later patches. But hopefully with Orkfaeller's effort the textures will finally be functional.

I've been looking for a proper cooling pad for my future notebook and I seem to run into user reviews stating inefficient cooling far too often. I came acorss a few good but I still don't know which one would be the best. Antec Notebook Cooler 200 XIGMATEK Shield NPC-D211 Cooler Master NotePal U3 PL...

Mononoke is really great. Other Miyazaki's movies of which I can see Spirited Away and Nausicaa mentioned are good too, but I personally enjoyed Mononoke far more than his other movies.

Rockit Barrage comparison is rather pointless because the unit that uses the ability (Tankbustas) also deal constant DPS against the tank in question. More often than not, by the time the barrage lands you will have landed about 2 salvos of missiles as well. The amount of total damage done in the s...

I'm not into anime that much but I did watch Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo both by Shinichirō Watanabe and both I enjoyed.

A friend of mine always praised Death Note, but I have no personal experience with it.

Great stuff Arbit. I appreciate you spent your free time on it. Many thanks.
