'Modern Warfare' Discussion Thread

just send me the uvw map file and probably a .jpg description of which is which

Could some people like give rating of these models? i know it may be hard to see, but if they look decent then let me know. and defiently tell me if you think they are crap. (no comments about the texture plz)

personally i think they are the bestest models on the face of the planet and they should give this fantastic David guy an Oscar for them cos he is a really cool, good looking guy.

heh...

Yeah Hi guys My name is David im the modeler behind Doomsberg, im open to C&C.

I personnaly know Andrew (Doomsberg) for 6 years and have gone to school with him, i am 16 (17 in like 10 days), like sunsets walks on the beech.....
...errr too far

any way i hope u enjoy the mod and ill try to keep up the highest standard of modeling.

Cheers

Well that was a random post from our modeller(obviously) who is going away to Italy for three weeks. But we can manage without him for this time, plently of work to do tho.

Anyway about the sigs - im creating personal ones in which each member of our team has a photo of them in it. So if you want a sig with you pic in it, send it to me however you like. I need to finish the animations of the M1 and Apache first tho, becuase there will be a pic of them them in the sig. So they will be finished in like 3 days (hopefully less). Also if any random people want them, i will make another version with out anyones pic.

Anyway thats about it for now. apart from Lu Baihu has started making another tech tree which is looking really good, and my laptop will be back 2mrrw so i can get to work on slk files etc.

Remember if you have any comments plz post them.

do you really want to have the persons pics on the sig's
do you want me to send the pic over msn ???

The Bad:

First off, where the hell is Doomsberg, much less Lance? If time is money, Lance's "4 weeks" to terrain are four weeks where we're not doing much of anything, unless someone's actually doing coding (for example, changing the speed limit, replacing the select screens), as Pantsonnos has said that he needs that terrain before he can map! And even discounting that, I hope that David models the rest of the Coalition and Saddam's Forces units soon ...

The Good:

But in any case, the units are coming along great, I've just added the export version of the Hind gunship -- both an attack helicopter (Air-to-Ground) and a transport (8 slots, two pilots) -- and the MiG-25 Foxbat high-speed air-to-air interceptor, to Saddam's Forces, while New Iraq will for now make do with the UH-1Y Huey (transport) and the AH-1W Super Cobra (A2G) ... these could force the Coalition to rely on Harriers for helicopter-escort protection* ;)

And now a decent question:

Guys, how's the idea of missiles as charged Left-Click-to-Use items sound? It does after all give many of the vehicles in the game a "third" attack :D anyone in favor or opposed?

* David, I call your bluff on the Harrier now! ^_^

id just like to say that no one has said to start the terraining as im waiting on custom tilesets ... srry if i sound mad but its not my fault ... i think
well anyways thanks for the good cause it sounds really good !!!!

Blame Lance -- and someone find him, while you're at it! (Where's Doomsberg, has anyone seen him??)

Aznwhore, I'm gonna hafta ask you ... could you please help terrain for us? ^_^

*begs*

We can't afford to wait for this Lance fellow ...

i can only skin/model/icons

Man, you don't go on the net for 4 days and everything goes awreck. Anyway sadly enough i have been sooo busy it isn't funny, but now im free.

Ive almost finished the apache animations, and will touch up the M1 as per what Edward said.

Anyway - firstly, Lance is Pantsonnas.
Secondly, i have asked anzwhore to make the custom tileset, hopefully he will.
Thirdly, david is away in Italy at the moment, so ill have to maodel what i can. If Edward, you can give me a list of the models we want, then ill do my best.

I have finally got my laptop back, so im working a crap load, but there is a crapload of stuff for me to do, so im working hard. Anyway we need to make a plan for the week.... as in what we want/need done by the end of each week.

This week - We need to have the exact tech tree finished for the Coalition melee team. And if possible finish the demo campaign planning. I plan to finish the apache, M1A1, BlackHawk, Harrier, and the Humvee this week. Including animations. Hopefully we will have the new tileset made soon then we can start terraining.

What else needs done - post your needs/wants.

- Oh yeah, shall we have sigs without our own pics then? Ill let u's decide.

It's confirmed, now all instant-use Items (such as runes and Tomes) will be removed from the game, and all units will have Inventory (Hero) as a normal ability. This will allow many units to have a "third" attack, in the form of charged Left-Click-to-Use weapons ... for example, the Apache model can only be kept to a decent # of polies by restricting it to the 30mm chaingun and 2.75" Hydra rockets, but it can pick up, drop and use Hellfire Missile Packs :D ^_^

How's that sound?

P.S. As another example, I'm thinking that each item slot will, for the Harrier, represent a wing hardpoint.

Yea it sounds good. I know i was supposed to put up a map with the M1 Abrams and apache today but for some stupid reason, this computer wont allow the map to be copied from the other one. But im working on it, i will put it up tomorrow. Anyway the apache's animations are stuffed... i have no idea why, im gonna ask around. Any other news for the moment?

Well, you can guess who's the new member ^^. I have some ideas for missions(as someone from Israel, I was kinda affected by the war)and stuff, but I don't really think that the race "Free Iraqis" is needed, although I don't have any ideas for another race. About the equipment, I think that not of the soldiers should have it, like Bazooka\Rocket Launcher carrying soldiers, it doesn't really make sense. That's my stuff for now, I'm kinda busy these days, but I'm mostly active in weekends.

The New Iraqi Forces is akin to a variation on both the Coalition and Saddam's Forces; one of its main advantages is that it has "unit function" diversity as compared to the Coalition (an attack transport instead of a separate gunship and a separate flying transport) and longer individual lines of sight ...

Re the equipment and soldiers: How so?

Update: What're your mission ideas?
