Custom Content Challenge: September 2014: The Mists of Ravenloft

Thank you for the offers of help!  

 

AD, I haven't had gmax or nwmax installed for a long time (~2 computers ago?).   I can track something down if it comes to it.

 

Shadowing2029, I can play with your texture for the emitters after we get the skin right;  MD, the current version of the model is here:

That model references the texture you provided and some placeholder ones (included) inherited, for now, from the Water Ellie/Blood Golem.   If we get something we're happy with, I can do up a quick portrait afterwards.

I have done an area pre-fab using the ctp gothic exterior tileset. 

 

Meet the mansion at the heart of the Boritsi Estate

 

Home to Ivana Boritsi, Lord of Borka

 

Also known as the Black Widow who has poisoned many who've passed through this door

 

It is said that on many a moonlit night strange sounds are heard coming from the roof of this vast pile

 

Here we can see the bay windows in one of the gable ends

 

Looking along the moonlit back of the building where it is not the night air that sends a chill up your spine

 

This is as close as I can get to the picture in the original TSR Ravenloft boxed set.

I did up 6 examples, all calling on the first. These are fairly disgusting, but I prefer the 5th one over all the rest. The 6th uses the texture I had originally sent, while the others use the second set of textures. All are quite nasty, but one or two are not good quality for animating.

 

These make my wife cringe and make that noise people make when they are disgusted.

So disgusting

 

Note:

I did not remove the bloody spurt emitters, but it did ask me on export if I wanted to delete some zero-face objects. You may need to put them back since I have no idea what they were for. Sorry if that caused any trouble.

 

Also, you can see where the arm nodes meet the body, the texture is stretched. This is because the base pose is not that of the idle pose. I'd personally use it as is, but if need be, somebody better at that kind of stuff could modify the texture at those locations.

it kind of reminds me of oogie boogie from 'Nightmare Before Christmas' in his last form

Thanks MD!  I agree on your preference for #5 and will work with that.  I'm not going to mess with the stretchy textures either, methinks.   After reading around a bit and poking maggots in game, I'm not worried about the zero-face objects.  I may go back and nuke them from the Blood Elemental version, too.   You had the model linked back to c_maggot #1 for animations, so I've changed that back to the Blood Golem model.  Folks won't be able to use the Maggot Gollie without the Blood Ellie, but we'll save a little space.  Going back to the description ( http://www.lomion.de/cmm/golemagg.php ), I suppose I could have scaled him down rather than leave him the size of the elemental, but I like him this size and the end user can adjust creature sizes in-toolset with tailmodel.2da support, so I'm not going to sweat that.  

 

I've got Shadowwing2029's texture plugged in with some minor adjustments to meet my satisfaction as a replacement for the blood emitters, and I'm considering trying to add some flies buzzing around the top before I make portraits and call it done.

 

Thanks all for your help and suggestions!

My wife was saying the same thing: "My bugs. my bugs. my bugs!"

Is PHoD's drider a new animation set, or just a model upgrade? I haven't looked (feeling lazy)

Link me the model you want to use, at the scale you want to use it, and I will link you back a retextured version using the planar maggot mess. At that point you should be able to substitute any planar texture of similar size, like worms, or brains, or sewer water. I have some time tonight if you are interested.

 

In the meantime, feel free to further disgust yourself with these darker and seamless larvae.

That would make a perfect rot grub swarm.

Hi guys! I can't build anything, but I'm a regular on Ravenloft: Prisoners of the Mist, Bluebomber4evr's PW, and an avid fan of all things Ravenloft, and I can honestly say... what you guys are doing is exceptionally awesome. Keep up the great work!

Werebat; I never like too much the CEP werebat, so I have made my own. It has taken quite time and work, but I think that it looks good. This creature uses a modified version of "project Q lycanthrope animations". However, unlike my other lycanthropes, this can't hold weapons or shields.

Hey

 

Could anyone consider updating a Carrion Crawler - I am thinking here about baba's improved creatures CC The model is far better than the one provided by Q & CEP

It has only animation issues - walking (it moves like a slug) and death (the animation repeats sometimes) There is no varianty of bugs in NWN (we have spiders & bettles but that is all) It fits very well in this months theme and I would be very greatfull if someone hear my plee

 

PS: You guys are all awsome! Keep up the great work !
