I'll make this short and sweet as I'm kinda busy working on rohan heroes right now

Gondor is done. I cut 2-3 small things that I was having trouble with (such as the Gondor Fort) in the interests of finishing the mod on time, plus they can always be added in later.

For rohan: Theodred is made and in-game, powers still to be made. I'll post some screens of him later. Gamling is also in-game with powers. Theoden is done. Eomer needs a new skin which I believe I already made somewhere as well as his new powers which I remember being WIP at some point so they shouldn't take long. Eowyn needs a new skin and 1-2 powers. Merry gets a new skin and 1-2 powers. Hama, Erkenbrand, Elfhelm, Grimbold, and the Royal Guard I have to make skins/models for as well as their powers. I have to put the blue wizards in-game as well as Haldir with the new Elven Allies summon. I have to make a new Westfold building and a westfold spell (probably... could be cut if too hard). And that's rohan.

EDIT: oh, and I fixed that bug for the Men of the Westfold where they wouldn't correctly hold their weapons

[/Edit]

Back to work.

hehe, I know, it's wierd!

Good news (and less work

): I discovered that for alot of the rohan heroes models/skins I have (or at least had lol) permission from Celeglin to use his stuff

so I only need to make Erkenbrand, Royal Guards (maybe...gotta double check permissions on them), and then code everything

THANK YOU CELEGLIN!!!

Well I've got all the new rohan models done I think. Most are in-game now too

I still need to make their powers but that won't take long. I've also got 27 new screenshots that I'll post in the next day or two, whenever I get some free time and am not modding. They contain: Theodred (foot, mounted, ingame), Erkenbrand (sweet new skin!!! foot, in-game, mounted), Grimbold (foot, in-game, maybe mounted if I solve a bug in time), Blue Wizards (in-game), Westfold Building (in-game), and one or two other things I think.

Bah! I'll post Erkenbrand now since he's really cool looking

Only thing you can't see too well is his cape in the back but it's the same one all the TEA rohan heroes use; nothing too new there. But the rest of the skin is mine (well face isn't but obviously I can't draw that well

).

I'll upload the rest of the screens to my site so it'll probably be tomorrow or the next day before they are ready for viewing.

Well the screens aren't ready yet... been working on other stuff. Such as all the code for the new rohan heroes

They are now all coded and all working in-game. I've got a few bugs to fix and some modelling/skinning work to do (I'm going to redo the EA rohan horde skins and I'm not happy with 2 of the hero models so I'm going to try to fix or redo them).

Anywho, that's the news for today. If I'm not doing anything tonight I'll try to upload the screens.

Screens are done and up! Sorry for the delay but I had some RL stuff come up over the weekend that required my attention

Also I have an update: I've made 9 new Rohirrim skins to replace the old low quality EA ones. Basically I just blew up the old EA ones and then made my own new skins on top from scratch (minus the faces which are pictures). So while they aren't the most amazing skins in the world, I'm happy with the way they turned out. They are definately better than the EA ones :good:

Also it provides more random-ness with the 5 more skins which is cool. And I was able to take some screens of them which are uploaded on the website for your perusal :xcahik_:

As always, you can click on my sig to go to my website. *which saves me the work of posting a link every update

Thanks a bunch, GtO> I may not have been into BFME for some time, but your work is still admirable.

When it's done I'll be waiting to press that 'download' button. :xcahik_:

I will remember Rhovanion Alliance, RIP .

Sorry for the lack of updates or news this past week, I had a week long camp I was working/teaching at and was thus busy

Update: Grimbold 2.0 is done and ready. I never posted a screen of Grimbold 1.0 (or even mentioned him) as when I got him in-game I realized his model and skin were not going to work thus I completely redid him and the end result is much better. I'll upload the screens with the next batch whenever I make them

He's basically a kit-bash type hero so there really isn't anything spectacular or brand new *shrug* still looks cool though :good:

EDIT: new hi-rez fellowship merry done

next is mounted and heavy armor.

PS: Dark Knight is pretty sweet! Go watch it if you haven't already

Four new screenshots are up! Merry, Grimbold, and Eowyn (heavy armor with and without helmet). And now I'm off to fix some special power bugs and other assorted hero stuff

Edit/Update: The bug list is shrinking fast

other than artwork and a few new fx's I need to make I'm down to 4 items for rohan (or at least I think that's all thats left).
