sooo, I can start working on this I guess, but what should I do? have him(her) move back and forth from pose to origional? or have each move be a gif? and should i have him stand still or move a bit like he would on the tiles?

only thing I can say about the pikeman, and this was on the old one as well, its not really defined in a few spots (for example where his helmet WOULD touch his pike?) and I dunno the spearman looks really lanky to me.. maybe because hs has a buckler that's so small, but isn't a buckler one that att...

hahaha, lol monkey but you are right, it is his butt. (btw you can edit and avoid a double post) the only thing I see is that his head seems to get cut off, like its flat and not round... in fact he looks kinda skinny overall, but I like the height. maybe put it on some ground? that might help looki...

Personally I like having two frames. It shows a death animation instead of a death pose. But it is important in terms of continuity to remember that the units will go from thier defend animation to their death animation. Keep up the good work, if you get enough of there, they're a good chance they'...

Yeah I definitly don't think this would take up too much room or would be too hard to implement... 'tis a very good idea instead of fade to clear (ahem) IMHO... if anyone wants me to work on something I can, otherwise I might pick something up randomly this weekend... I have never really done any we...

I like the idea! I think mostly it would be like higher lvl units though?
and is there game code to handle this?
edit: btw before you get started on a lot, it looks like those have a white BG not transparent?

Naga-mermen question

I see that (for awhile actually) the naga mermen mermaid whatever people have been packaged with the versions of the game. however they aren't really implemented anywhere, correct? like you cannot use them in multiplayer. perhaps they are in some campaign? anyway, I know there was a big discussion a...

it looks pretty good, its a lot different than the original! lol well not a lot, but it looks pretty cool. I hope I wasn't offending anyone by bringing this up, I just downloaded 8.9(I think) the latest, and saw this guy. I hope any theories like the bandana being a rallying symbol or other such thi...

haha! a lot of ways, are you talking about doing it yourself? sometimes you just take some units and edit them around cutting and pasting with a little editing to get the unit you want. check out other people's stuff to make sure there isn't one you want, or ot get some ideas. a lot of people use th...

hmmm, I don't really like that beard or the eyes, well I do but I still like shadow's best =) still better than origional, especially spear.

I think if you had done that with shadow's eyes, it would be the best yet =)

I dunno that it couldn't be just 'fog' but its different, just so you can see it on all, well I dunno. that doesn't make sense. we would need to see how fogs mix.. =/ otherwise yeah, you could have a lot, it would be odd to have just normal "fog" and also "storms". I dunno how it...
