I am a member, I just forgot. Been a while...

Celeglin is his screen name. As for his real name...no idea. You probably won't be able to 'collaborate' with him any time soon - his internet's down and has been so for more than half of this year, and we have no idea when he's coming back.

And how could you forget that you're a member?

[m@tt]

^^ CK... What happened to the Mae Governa, I'm Celeglin bit on the site?

If you're planning to release this publically, make sure you read the mod readme, as there are some models/skins that he won't let be used without specific written permission (can't think of them off the top of my head, but they are mainly elven ones anyway).

Gah, it will be 6 months in a few weeks... is it really so hard to go to the library just to say whats going on?

[Olorin]

Apparently so.

[Taralom]

if i were you i'd be very careful with Arwen. Celeglin made a lot of skins for her, and if he doesn't want others to use even one skin you might just have to change a lot in the codes

[Mathijs]

I'm starting to wonder if the guy is still actually alive...

[Olorin]

Well that's a morbid thing to say.

[Dain Ironfoot]

Well even a "Hello I've totally lost interest in all this, bye bye!" would be nice

[Olorin]

Unfortunately, you've got a point there.

[DreadStorm]

Well, you've helped a bit even in that exchange. I've decided to hunt for different imagery - but as far as coding, I've learned enough to make that on my own.

And I forgot my membership because I'm a computer contractor by trade. Had a busy past several months - literally forgot all the things I signed up for before the first contract started. heh

But what I did is I started from a basic 1.03 patch install, added Vapula's Hero Mod after migrating it up a patch, added Silen's Blood Mod (remixed), and added Hama, a recruitable Gwaihir, gave the Ent Summon to Treebeard, and made the Eagle Summon and Ent summon spellbook items different spells (tell ya later). Also combined Gondor and Rohan. They never really were all that separated, just a bit away from each other. heh

What I'm wanting to do next is garrison Gondor wall towers, and add the heroes Galadriel, Arwen, and Damrod...well, that's all I have planned at the moment, anyway.

you can just download TEA. Then you've got a lot of that.
and i'd suggest someone moves this to BFME modding or something.

But the I wouldn't have anything to learn from. I already spoke to DeeZire some time back about the towers. He didn't remember, and to avoid violating his work, I didn't look until he gave me permission - I wanted to experiment on my own and learn for myself.

See, I'm not rich enough to go to colleges and take programming courses. So I take what's out there (that isn't jealously protected or copyrighted) and pick it apart and learn from it, and only then, make my additions. Since I suck at graphics, I can only do the INI mods. The graphics, I'm forced to 'borrow' if at all possible. heh

But only if the creators don't mind - and credit is given plainly.

In short, just a poor old n00b with too much time on my hands, and a hunger to learn.

if that's true, you're at the right place. Try following some tutorials at the main site and check BFME2 And ROTWK modding forums sometimes. There are some interesting questions there.
