Well, as you might have known, I stopped modding till ROTWK came out. Now that it is, I am going through a modding frenzy! I am probably 90% done with stage one of the mod. You might ask "Stage one?". Once again, if you payed attention to previous posts, you would know what the next stage of the mod is. For those who don't, I'll post what it is here:
STAGE 1: Rohan. Many Minor changes to the game, plus the Rohan faction. PROGRESS: 90% Done. A few more changes, and one or two bugs. Should be done by Friday, but no promises.
STAGE 2: BFME I - Gondor. I will re-add the BFME I Gondor faction to the game! I am still working out some flaws with this idea, but I think I have it mostly figured out.
Anywho, the promised update: A few screens
Skirmish at the River
Bricked Roofed Fortress
Gamling and his army
Showing off my Walls again
Gondor Spearman and Tower Gaurds
Thats all for now! I would like to inform you that all of the new buildings in this mod will include build-up states. In fact, I have already finished all of the building build-up anims...

SITE RE-DESIGNED: In honor of ROTWK, I have re-designed my entire site! Head on over to http://fingulfin.the3rdage.net and check it out!

Looking very nice! I'm especially liking the women in the Rohan archer hordes . I'm not sure why you gave the Rohan citadel a brick roof (I've never heard of a peaked brick roof) when Rohan was known for thatch in both the books and films. Oh well, your choice. Once again, it's all looking quite nice.

I'm sure you already know this, but the button for the "Screenshots" page doesn't work.

Indeed it looks nice Like Celeglin said the screenshot page doesnt work and also neither does the mod page... You probably just havent uploaded those pages yet

EDIT: Also noticed there is a news script problem?

News Script Problem? I haven't seen anything wrong with it...

As for the brick roof: That was a starter. Now I have it so it looks more like helms deep when you upgrade it. Why? Cause when you buy the "Helms Horn" upgrade for the fortress two Helm's deep structures appear next to it. They look out of place with all those bricks. I'll post some more screens later.

As for the site not working: I am still making the SSs page, I just forgot all about it I'll try to put it up today (if I can ever finish my darn school...).

Link to image of what the news script shows for me

[Fingulfin]

Ooohhh... Your viewing it in IE eh? Right now the site is Firefox compatible only... At least the front page. I would edit the template, but I've been too busy to tinker with it lately... I'll see if I can do it tommorow.

When it will ?

When it will.....?

[mattpalmer]

I love the new site, your mod has just been drawn to my attention and i think it looks fantastic.

I am one of Argolis Best Friends, I know whats happening in the Mod In fact, some of the things you see in there might be mine, as me and Argolis swap ideas, models and other such things on regular intervals. As a matter of fact, I am a member of VAL, though somewhat inactive. He seems to enjoy running his one man show. I'm a coder, and he has all of that down already

[mattpalmer]

Thats great then!

I recognised alot of the Rohan units
especially the great walls?

[Fingulfin]

Those are mine, took the old BFME 1 Rohan Walls and messed with them a bit Don't tell me Argolis doesn't include credit? Joking

A few other things are Argolis's, like Gamling and the Peasant Archers.

[mattpalmer]

Naa, he gave you full credit
Are the peasent units yours?

[Feanor]

things seem to be going along well atm fin, anyway got anything new happening with your mods etc ?

[Fingulfin]

I have actually done very little work since the last update Recently I've been playing BF 2142 like crazy, with a bit of modding tacked onto it.

Then there is our little project which I am prepared to do once you give me some orders...

Mostly I'm just polishing up the mod, and I haven't been able to do much of anything this past week. Hoping to get back to work on Tuesday (Monday is Christmas; probably going to be busy).

[Stealthsnake]

well i feel sorry of anyone who is not busy on christmas day (tomorrow)

[mattpalmer]

Tommorow is going to be chaotic. Good luck on the mod, we're looking forward to it
