If it's OK with you, you could start with making a new monster. It's up to you whether you want to work on an all-new one, or you make one of the modified versions I was planning, e.g. the gray-skinned "mountain Centaur" (would require recoloring of his brownish skin to stone-greyish). As soon as you have the first image, you can show it either here or in e-mail so I can check it out and if it's OK, you can make all frames. p.s. Moose about who being newer, check out his and your member number. <!-- s;) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" /><!-- s;) -->

And I guess now that we have 2 artists that means we can get more NPCs for the town. <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

I just got some questions, do I need to download any kind of files from the FTP??? I was checking yesterday and it's full of things!! <!-- s:!: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_exclaim.gif" alt=":!:" title="Exclamation" /><!-- s:!: --> . I would like to know if there are some levels that use some NPC's (I'm curious, heh!) or new monsters. Also I would like to know What kind of new monsters are there going to be?? Can I upload anything to the FTP?? How should I do it?? I have downloaded the SE binaries and some WADS, but there appears to be a kind of problem with the model definitions there... (I have been busy, right?? <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> ) Well, I will start working there, see ya on the week!!

I mean working here. All you need to upload your stuff is a FPT client all the details are in one of the topics. A map with NPCs. Try out Janis' test level it also has speech [url:ra2yw2ln]http://korax-heritage.com/koraxdev/scatteredevil/jl-map01.zip

The prob with the koraxdev FTP is that everyone just uploads stuff and never bothers to write an index.txt file (or add to it if already present), telling what's what. One of these days, someone should clean up there... even I don't know about a couple of files what they are... <sigh>. Basically, you should be able to more or less determine what's useful when you go after upload date, especially when there are several versions of a file (like the SE binaries). [quote="Moose":1erlm3vv]I agree it does feel really good sitting around doing nothing, um.. I mean working here. (shakes a finger at Moose) As for the upload details and other access data, it's all in the sticky topic (it's always the first in the list when you go to the Korax Developer forum overview). BTW I just added to the first post on that topic, I forgot the info about the SE design guide last time. What kind of probs do you have with model definitions? Do you mean the vertical offsets? Oh yes, new monsters... planned are those gray mountain centaurs, a Uber-Heresiarch, several Ettin tribes (with slightly different clothing), and most probably a new version of the Chaos Serpent (the green and brown bulls). If there will be time left, more might be added. What I'd really love to use are some of ShadowCaster's monsters, especially the Boarlord's minions and the red dragonwhelps (forgot their names). But Raven is not going to release the source code, so there isn't much chance to simply get the original graphics (which would be cool, as they are AFAIK in the same format as those of the DOOM engine).

The new monsters sound good, I got the first preview of the mountain centaur I will send it to your mail later, there are two versions, please tell me which one you would like me to finish, I also found some sprites for an unfinished TC for Heretic?? I don't remember I'll send them to you too, if you want to use them they are all finished, the only thing I should add is the damage skin, but I think that will be easy... And about the model definitions, I see the cleric's staff as the pots, also some trees look bad, and the health vials go into the ground, there are some strange decorations, and those are the ones I remember...[/img]

Could you put your art up on KoraxDev or send it to me aswell. I like looking at the art you guys do.

OK, I'll create a folder on the FTP called "Firebrand" so you can all download the files I got finished (is not too much but well, I think it's cool).
