I just downloaded a free trial of a screen capture program that can capture cursors. You still won't get the true feel of the animated cursors, but still...







Next one to be made is the attack cursor, then maybe set rally point.

Very neat and everything.... BUT..

Priorities eh?

[Lauri]

word...

[Lord of the Rings Junkie]

Don't worry, I'm also working on getting the Goa'uld fortress actually working as a fortress.

Um... How are fortress doors supposed to work, with them being separate models and all? Not many tutorials on that.

[Guess Who]

Animations make them move, delete the vertexes behind then animate the door , looks really nice though, what positions do you need for your mod?

Well, since you asked, I think the biggest help right now would be an organic modeler/skinner who could make units while I'm busy designing and modeling all of the buildings. Second most helpful would be a good coder and maybe animator to get said units to actually work.

Keep in mind that most units will need to be modeled from scratch, just like the buildings.

Guess who,
i think you need to be capable of making good skins before joining this mod.
what we've seen from you ain't that great and to have some strange things with two legs walking through a stargate when it's finished isn't my idea of a great Stargate mod...

[lycan]

quite a good point

[Guess Who]

I didn't say i was joining, i said what positions are open ffs.

[lycan]

but then again i've never seen taralom do anything

i might be wrong who knows...

[Mathijs]

Doesn't mean he cant have an opinion about this.

[Lord of the Rings Junkie]

Okay... It's become clear to me that I'm going to need a good coder I can at least talk to on MSN or Skype when I need to. I'm having a hard time figuring some of this stuff out. (Mainly replacing Mordor faction files/folders with ones named Goa'uld right now.)

[Sûlherokhh]

I have yet to completely Replace/DesignFromScratch a full faction. Any other basic questions though, ask me in the open forum for BfME2/RotWK. I will most certainly take a good look, as will many others probably. But check out the vast 'archive' of previous question posts first (using the search function). There are some valuable treasures buried there, like the old tutorial section that hasn't been taken down yet (thank god it stays that way), but isn't accessible anymore through the forum link tree.

Edit: i realized you have done so already, just didn't read through the last weeks of that forum's posts.

Thanks for the support. I'll see if I can find that special tutorial section.

As for the new faction, right now I'm going through all of the Mordor structure INIs and updating EVERYWHERE that says Side = Mordor to Side = Goa'uld, and I'll do the same for the unit INIs. Maybe then I can change the folder name without crashing the game. Does this sound like a good plan of attack to you? I'm just taking stabs in the dark here...

[Edit] Just got your PM, thanks a bunch for the link. I learned something new within 30 seconds of clicking it!

true, i don't do much.
if i'd do i probably will not make it through this year of school.
that's why i'm trying to help wherever i can.

i'm helping with Hell mod of Deathbringer and i'm learning how to code in a faction and all.

[Lord of the Rings Junkie]

Here's the Goa'uld fort with the new build plot arrangement.



Right now it's kind of a cheap hack though, it's still using all the code for a Mordor fortress and I just modified the .bse. Yes, I'm aware there are still no shadows.

[Edit] No screenie, but shadows are fixed now.
