In The Destroyer's Grip

[Apollyon]

im sorry, but your icon looks a bit "dune-2k-ish" :P

yes but its just a test

speaking of which, did it work, Frodo?

and how r the textures going?

[Apollyon]

on that subject i think i will need to "hire"/recruit some texturers.

I am not particularly good at texturing, nor do i really have the time as i still need to work on subhouses (3 units per subhouse) and superweapons.

please anyone?

also i need some house logo ideas.

[Apollyon]

in fact forget that i just made them ;D

[Apollyon]

ok here are the 3 races advantages and disadvantages

The Tempest (replace Atreides)

*Advantages -

regenerate health at a fast rate.

can build on sand

undamaged by storms

do not attract worms

possess a unique construction system

*Disadvantages -

Generally require large numbers to overcome the enemy

The Kulchatah (replace Harkonnen)

*Advantages -

Incredibly tough units

special ability = Beserker Rage (when a unit is attacked the said unit will increase its speed dramatically for a short amount of time)

Cheap and effective infantry

a good balance between cost and numbers

*disadvantages -

rely heavily on infantry for additional support

weapons have a very short range

The Aspedos (replace Ordos)

*Advantages -

Personal and vehicle mounted shields improve unit constitution

Powerful Weaponry

Possess uinits to tackle virtually any instant

Generally fast moving

Use longer range weapons

*Disadvantages -

Despite possessing shields their units are still very weak

Very expensive units due to complicated technology

Long build times also due to complicated technology

ok i have started 1 of the subhouses

it replaces the fremen currently and is Psionic Ability

this gives the Kulchatah a guy who can transform for a short period of time into an unstoppable beserker who destroys tanks and infantry in seconds.

The Aspedos get an Archon, a guy who uses a psionic booster handset to cause psychic storms.

i cant think of what the tempest should get tho if they choose psionics as a subhouse

myabe give them a mach killing machine it self heal it move faster then any unit and can blow up units and buildings in seconds more like tanya ;D

lol

this has to be completely BALANCED.

[Apollyon]

Frodo, I dont want to be pushy but whats the status of those blue infantry textures?

i cud really do with them soon.

[Frodo]

they are done i will send them now. What happened to the mod? Did it get deleted?

[Apollyon]

it got an irrepairable erorr

the carryalls wont function and now it wont even start at all

[Frodo]

:( Did you make a backup?

[Apollyon]

yes its about 4 units behind

but if i had to start from scratch id kill myself =)

[Frodo]

that has happened to me at least 6 times in the past, but now i am smart enough to back up.

[Apollyon]

yea damn emperor

its something to do with deleting the incidentals

muchos gracias

arigato gozaimasu

grazie

merci beaucoup

ive been working on the mod and ive managed to get it almost back to where it was before the crash.

Ive finished the Subhouse "Psionics" which will replace Fremen

these are the units this gives

Kulchatah get the Beserker which can, using mind over matter techniques, become an unstoppable killing machine for a short amount of time.

The Aspedos get the Archon which uses a handheld psychic amplifier to project powerful lightning storms.

The Tempest get the Overlord, essentially a dustscout with longer legs and a longer, thinner chassis. It can see stealthed units from a relatively long distance and fires lightning bursts.

[guusr5644]

yes but with PSP you cant just make textures like frodo maked... and i cant understand anything when i make icon i press gray scale and save as other file and in the colorfull file i dont know how to make it right coz when i touch something either game crash either it looks like hmm i shoed it in other thread ill look for it how do i change RGB and stuff all to complicated...

[guusr5644]

ok its in this thread i hope some one willing to help me ::)

[Frodo]

well, in paint shop pro there must be a desaturate option, it will make the grey icons perfectly. Greyscaling will give you some problems IMO.

[guusr5644]

what the ^$&* is IMO? i see it all around and i why cant i use the greyscale option? and how do i change the RGB and stuff to make it work right?

[Frodo]

IMO is In My Opinion. But I just like desaturation. I haven't used PSP in a looong time. I use Photoshop.
