turn based games

[{MSX}]

Sorry I haven't replied for a while, but my computer has died. I think it's the CPU, I have replacements for everything, 'cept the same socket of cpu. :cry:

I got a lot of work done too. As soon as I can/allowed to plug my HDDs into my mums pc, I can get some more work done, and show you what I've been upto.

*sigh*, stupid computer

Ehehe damned computers
Good to hear that you have lots of work done!

Instead i didn't code too much this days.. A friend of mine gave me a game called EtherLords II witch, guess what, is a turn based fantasy game The combat portion of the game is almost identical to Magic The Gathering.
Needless to say, i've spent all my free time playing with it

Anyway i've also worked on the game a little.. I've still some weird bugs on the network code that needs to be cleaned. Expect more news soon (i've already almost finished Etherlords II )

Hi
We didn't post anything lately, but the development is going on
I'm very happy with the engine, making TheSheepKiller was very useful for the development. Now i'm working a little on the game itself, map definitions, rules, items, etc.

Here's some more screenshots, that are as always more interesting

Here's a robot that i've designed some days ago:


Here's a wonderful Orc by K4Z:


And lastly the beginning of a Minator, always by K4Z (btw isn't that a minotaur?):


More news soon

I think your models are really nice!

Looking good MSX. Would I be right in saying that the robot will be used in the 4 Elements contest

I've done some more on the minotaur, and I think it's completed. Just goto send it to Blender and fix some little things and it's ready.

And here's a bunch of shots :










Although he's a more complicated design than I've made with all the other models, he really didn't take that long to model, mabye an hour and a half all up.

The legs may look a little off at first, but he's ment to have goat like legs. Which is a little hard to do when the Model style is to have no legs, just feet.

Another thing that was a bit of a challenge was his muscles. Modeling low poly muscles is harder than it looks :lol: . I wasn't that happy with his body, but once I added in the feet and hands, it all came together better.

If I could be bothered, I'd UV map his skin and draw on glyphs and tatoos.

This is my favourite model I've made for the turn based game so far, as you can probably tell . and it came out a lot better than I had thought it would.

Let me know what you think, Laters!

You're getting better quite fast This looks really like a strong minotaur

The muscles are perfect and the legs too gives the idea of the "backward knee". You also did a great jobs in keeping with the style of the game.

Btw the engine supports texturing of meshes, even if we don't use it too much, so if you want to add a texture for tatoo (or for anything else), it will work on the game.

Bye!

Let me know what you think

It's all looking great. This definately shows that you have your heart in it.

Wow... you guys are getting some sick characters churned out for this game! MSX, didn't you say that you couldn't model to save your life before when you first started this topic?

You guys(Kaz and MSX) seem to make a great team. I hope to see mor of your projects for some time to come. Maybe hook up with a good musician and the team will be complete.

Thanks for the support guys.

I've done some experimenting, and I tried putting The Minotaur's body on the Orc, and it makes the Orc look a lot better


I think I'll use the Minotaurs body for all the big muscular characters for now on.

And I've started putting tatoos on the Minotaur aswell


EDIT:
More shots :
