Dread Bat

Post by megane »

Well, Shadow Master asked me to create a new Dread Bat, the lv2 bat used in IftU and UtBS, so... I did :D

Animation will come... eventually >.<

Nice. When I played IftU I was wondering why blood bats were doing so much damage and killing my units until I moused over them. New sprites are good.

Awesome, they are being implemented in my campaign once the standing and attack frames are done.

So now you can say "the lv2 bats used in UtBS, IFtU and TSL."

My campaign was inspired from IFtU, UtBS. The name was inspired from a conversation in IFtU.

TSL stands for "The Silver Lands"

Finally got around to doing the frames for this -.-

In case you're wondering, its wingspan would be around 65 px, or about 10 feet.

Eh yeah. It was me. I talked with Megane about the commit on IRC, but for formality...

These have been commited to Under the Burning Suns tree on Wesnoth 1.4 and trunk. They are also in latest Invasion from the Unknown external SVN repo now. Thanks.

The WML for northern facings is already in, but commented until we get the graphics.
