CoH: Crossfire Progress Report, Company of Heroes Mod with Valkyria Chronicles Tanks and more

Valkyria Chronicles Development Arts are 399 A4 pages of awesome! For anyone who hasn't seen it, a google search might help, lurking forums will help more :). More on that later maybe...

Anyway, more of Ambit's work, based off the Willys Jeep, a Land Rover Defender for Faction 2. The models 99% 96% complete and Ambit's distracted with midterms and Mechs...so this probably won't see more work until those are done. It's roles is scout-transport and later logistical support or somethings.

Another one of AmbitOwl's WIPs as shown in an earlier post. Compared to the source material below (T08A2/R-3000 Lightweight Tank from the Ghost in the Shell Movie) he still has a lot to do. The chassis/cockpit (top gray part) is borrowed from a BF1942 Mod, he is using it as reference and making his own. (He doesn't like their model-very lazily built and needlessly high polycount) also the maker is unknown so we can't ask for permission to use it >.< So, just borrowing for reference :p.

Also planed for Faction 2 since that is Ambit's focus (opo368 is focusing on Faction 1 i.e. the Germans/Gallian faction). We call them faction 1 through 4 because: a) some of them don't have names yet and b) its a secret :p

Nothing really new about the Edelwiess yet though, other than its a texturing nightmare for opo-none of us knows how to do it yet T_T so other VC models have not been started yet. However the Development Arts will be very helpful to us >: D ! The pic is really out of date and really doesn't show the model b/c the lack of textures. I'll post soon i hope >_<

CoH: Crossfire? Late Update

Yes, we are still alive =3=. Too busy for updates so much to do >_> Progress is slow, but everyone has school so bleh! So, AmbitiousOwl decided arbitrarily to name this project "Crossfire" something to do with it being a crossover mod I presume, opo368 hasn't rejected it but I think we could go for something more creative xD
This would be the work of me and Ambit, opo is still toiling away at texturing the Edelweiss. Ambit decided to jump to this instead of starting the infantry models after "finishing" the Defender -.-, so I decided to help try to speed things up :p
More tomorrow!...hopefully =_="

Valkyria Chronicles Tank Edelweiss in CoH Mod

Heh, almost a week late in updating, but here it is. Opo368 is almost finish the Edelweiss, one of the many units and vehicles we'll be adding to the mod. Still a bit of work needed in adding doodads and goblins (radio, few more hatches, hooks, axels, etc.), but the basic shape of the first model (un-upgraded, i'll refer to it as Edelweiss ausferüng A) is done.
Comparison with models in CoH again (left to right): Tiger, Panther, and Panzer IV. They still have more detail, and alot more proportion issues -.- (CoH vehicles are not modeled to scale).
For whatever reason, the tanks, especially the Panzer IV and the Panther are HUEG! Which would explain why the Edelwiess looks diminutive in the line ups :p

The complexity of the radiator and the mantle & sheild are thanks to alot of care >.> Hatches and the cupola aren't finished, amongst other things... Still debating whether or not we will make the upgraded versions of the Edelweiss-more armoured skirts, larger gun, different chassis-etc. It might be a little while longer until we get the thing textured...we have to learn how first xD

Progress! Somewhat...

Few months have passed since we decided to begin work on our mod-which still doesn't officially have a name yet -.- I'll post a proper progress report before Tuesday...maybe... Still don't have much to show yet...just lots of files...and lots of concept text. Right the picture, 4 tanks; 3 from Relic, last is our own creation. Built it from scratch ha!

Left to right: Tiger, Panther(fully skirted), Edelweiss and Panzer IV(fully skirted). Decided to include them in the shot for size comparison. Unfortunately, Relic decided not to keep realistic proportions... Much more details to come!-Later! Right now sleep...zzzz

Company Of Heroes Mod: Project 05/06-09

Officially starting this Mod project. More details to come. We'll be working on Relic's Company of Heroes, specifically with their models, animations and audio - as well as game mechanics (factions, units, weapons and balance). Quite ambitious, we're aiming high and hoping for the best. Modding tools haven't been working out, so lately it's been alot of conceptual work. An issue with the model exporter is impeding any real progress-pipeline isn't working, causing the instal to fail. Aparently it's incompatable with the latest expansion-Tales of Valor. But now the exporter isn't compatible with our version of 3ds Max '08. Hopefully things work out, in the meantime, working on more concept and audio.

Original Voice Files for Bellato Girls

Back in February I decided to visit CCR's international RF Online server, see if they had any new updates and such. First thing I noticed was that they changed the player characters voice files o.0, what an odd thing to do... I thought the originals were just fine...I had particularly grown found of said voices. Maybe someone else didn't? Only other reason might be to differentiate player characters from NPC's, since technically, the NPC's got the voices first and hence the player characters "borrowed" them. Anyway, the new voices seem a bit too...extreme... The Bellato females voices have had their pitch raised, but sound...older...
Why do I care? iunno, something to do with being half-crazy? Old voice files were much cuter x3 So here they are! Click >:3

INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
-Download the above file
-Go to your RF Online folder (where you installed the game) I think the default is C:\Program Files\CCR\RFOnline or soemthing to that effect
-Inside RFOnline, goto "Snd" then "Character", and make a copy of anything you want to change
-Now unzip the file you downloaded, and replace the files in your folder with these OR pick and choose-although I wouldn't recommend this :P

Quick note, Player character voice's for the emotes have not been changed, only voice files for attacking, taking damage, death moans, etc. etc. The emotes have not been changed.

I'll be happy to upload anything else, just ask xD

And just because I find the SISTERS project so relevant to this game...poor imouto's ;_;

Clean your heatsinks

I had noticed my computer running slow on warm days and once its warm so i decided to crack it open. Runs much better now, back to normal and what not. Brush does the trick or a small vaccum.
