Help Needed - Mob Modeling

[GeorgeS]

That's excellent they're working well. I have made many more and todate about 100 or more. I'm exporting them for you tonight and the link is in the PM.

I've redone the froglok model slightly, and the mino-man. Lizardmen and wolves are done. Also the male/female NPC's are done as well

Getting them rigged into Anim8or has been a real challenge, and so far I only have one orc done and the spectres partially done. However, I've been doing more than that: I've been adding a host of features to OpenZone 7.7 that will handle a lot of the more tedious and dodgy aspects of mob modeling, and when it's done it should make modeling overall a lot more efficient. There's also a new tutorial in the built-in help that covers mob modeling, though when these features are finished I'll have to rewrite large portions of it to reflect all the simplifications that will be in effect. The past six weeks have been really difficult for RL reasons, but though I've been silent on the forums I haven't been gone by any stretch.

Nice work! Cant wait for a test server.

That's great you're getting these to animate - cannot wait to see them live in a game...

I've not modelled anymore since the second update, but then I made over a hundred models already for you

I heard from someone else about those RL issues. I understand well...
Good to see you woking on this.

Hey you guys still taking in custom models? Would be fun to wip one up and maybe see it ingame.

I've Textured/rigged before but we just need to make the model and you'll do the rigging? I've switched modelling programs so im relearning real quick with new software.

Absolutely we're taking in models for SimpleClient, but there's a real lag in terms of time before you'll see them ingame, as so far I'm the only one doing the rigging...

If you supply models already rigged, I need them to be rigged in Anim8or as that is the only model format that OpenZone understands. If you want to just supply a model, it can be in any format that I can import into Anim8or, such as .3DS.
