Well, when DoA explains further and answers my above question, I'll probably have my answer for you then. tongue.gif

Finish it. One of us will use it. I still have plenty of terran air units, so if I have to I can find extra one somewhere. Move on to protoss or zerg if you want to. I can, of course, have someone do some ground units for me, even though they take a bit more work...

I'll do ground for you, you just need to decopile them for me.

I can do some Protoss Air units... Give me descriptions?

When I get them. Lol, I've been working on FG so much I haven't had time to get more discriptions.

If anyone can go off of just name/race/(mech||organic)/size/(air||ground), I can give those pretty easily w/o having to work.

Because paint is primitive beyond all hell. Anything paint can do, photoshop can do better. The selection tool is much better, and the layers are a huge help if you want to redo something.

Though, I only use Photoshop for the more complex jobs like the Battlecruiser... That Probe/SCV/Goliath comination thing I made was done in paint.

Lol... Alrighty, I don't give up completely I guess... I just give up on the Super Cruiser. The wings are always too hard mad.gif

I guess I could try again, and leave the wings close to the default ones.

Oh and horde... Your biulding is... Okay. The uh physics terran add-on thingy (lol) part doesn't fit in... Try to find something better to put there.

Here's two Protoss biuldings you can add to your rapidly growing .GRP collection, DoA. One of them is an improved version of my older one.

WoAHorde2, it has potential. I have an idea on what to do with it. Just remember, Terran buildings have working animations and a pre-build frame. So far, every building grp I have has those...so don't break the good trend.

Kookster - Of those that you posted, can you send me the grp's? I'm trying to gather everything up so I know what I do/don't have.

Sub - Nice. As always, could you save me the work and put them in a grp for me?

Ian - what frames do you need?

Well people, I've counted all the grp's that I have. I have:

8 Terran buildings
1 Terran unit

That's really good, but I need more. iirc, protoss buildings are the 1 frame, and then sometimes the animation. If you can put the animation in, so I don't have to use extra overlays, that'd be nice.

To be different, I don't like the WoAH2's building - it looks like if he grabbed a couple of the original buildings, cut them into pieces and then randomly took a few and put together. pinch.gif I see little (if any?) concept of this building, really. The upper part doesn't fit onto the lower one, and the right-hand side connector is a WTF. Sorry for being harsh, but that's how it looks to me. Individual parts look ok, but the whole sucks. smile.gif

I'll amend my previous statement. I agree about the physics lab part, now that I look closer. The blend doesn't seem to go over too well the longer you look at it.

BK, do you always have to have the best advice? Still, you're right. Maybe some kind of direction is good. However, I don't have any for that paticular building right now. Been busy hammering bugs out of FG.

How about you attempt a redo on the refinery. I haven't had one of those yet, and it is something that shouldn't be too hard, since it's just changing how the refinery looks.

Well, I have them compiled as .GRP's, I'm just going to wait before uploading them as a .zip, that way I can have a bunch in one .zip folder, isntead of a bunch of different ones.

Hmm... Something else to work on... Make a list already tongue.gif

Hey, DoA, are you going to use Kookster's Zerg buildings? If not, can I steal them? I'd really like some Zergish-seriously-infested-looking buildings to go in Atrea's Children, and those fit the bill perfectly...

Okay, well I've made a tough decision...

I'll make you a zerg ground unit. Only one though. So choose the unit wisely. And is it okay if I draw some parts, as well as using peices of existing units?

To be honest I put it togethor over a short period of time tongue.gif(About 20 minutes). I can do better, and I also feel that it is lacking.

Well, I don't know yet. I'm sure it won't matter if you borrow them(given his permission of course). If I am, I would like some changes(which I've mentioned, like no terran landing pads).

Hmm...what to choose. Well, I have 6 zergish ground units. However, what I haven't said to much of anyone about zerg until now - I would like for an attempt to recolor each to look more bluish grey. That said, I'm thinking that you could do a unit called a Hunter(yes, I'm stealing a bit of idea from sc here...). It's going to replace the Lurker and be a bit faster in movement but it'll have a bit different kind of attack. I know this is a bit of a big project, but I'd like for you to try. However, I haven't got much else to go on. Here's what I can list for you:

Shadowspawn Hunter
Type: Anti-Unit
Attack Style: Attk when burrowed
Image: Similar to the Lurker. Has less legs(4 maybe)?, movement is fluid and fast. Size is between lurker and hydra. Has a bit of a gaseous surrounding, rather dark and blue/dark grey(all units should have this to an extent).
Build: morphs from another unit
Spells: Burrow. Animation to burrow should be very fast. This unit is all about speed and quick strikes. This is the only unit who's burrow is a traditional burrow(the other units are different...so anyone needs to ask me before making).
Type: Organic.

And yes, you can draw parts of it. I don't know how helpful that is going to be, but I haven't got much of an idea at the moment. My creative juices are a bit low, so I did the best I could. I'm sure you'll come up with something for me. btw, don't make any more frames than you have to. If you can hide some of the legs during movement with something...like the gaseous ether...do it. Don't make it hard on yourself.

I don't like the terran building. it has refinery stuff.. and it just seems overloaded with random parts that seem somehow not from the building but different parts that were put togethere. And there's an empty space below the starport dish... and i mean.. how is it there..? does it float?
And yeah SubFocus, the wings are extremly hard tongue.gif and paint is not primitive just that newbs cannot use paint to it's true potential (i'm not calling you newb) however if you are affected by my comment somehow leave it to yourself tongue.gif
