For Asgard and the Marvel Universe!

This community always comes through.

AA, I THOUGHT this was your newest one.  It's Mystique with a pistol, which I had always wanted.  Back in the day, it always bothered me when characters who had gun attacks didn't have a gun on their mesh, so I snapped this up and squirreled it away when I first saw it.  It seems, however, that this was the older one.  I guess I've been holding on to it for a while.   Anyway, that skope works well, thanks Spyder!  I notice that this one has some distortion with the hands, though.  I guessing that is a result of the neat keys you used, AA, right?

Thanks for the suggestions CB!  Shocker and Mysterio are two I hadn't considered, but they actually make a certain amount of sense, and I'll have to add them in for Spider-Man eventually anyway.

Cyber is an interesting option, AA.

Yeah, it's just how the mesh worked itself onto AA's newest Mystique.

I couldn't figure out how to shorten the fingers and the arms, but it didn't bother me too much when I skoped it, so I left it as is.

Though, with AA offering up a new skope, you should have a much better Mystique coming your way

[BentonGrey]

No worries.  She looks good in action!

One more thing, folks.  I need some help with some FX.  I've tried to add some FX for Pyro and Magneto, and it isn't working properly.  If someone would be willing to give this a look for me, I'd appreciate it.

[AfghanAnt]

Bent, is this the Mystique you are using?



If not it is an older version and I would be more than happy to update this one to look like classic Mystique with pistol and grenade animations.

I wanted another mesh with a more classic look with the same animations as your new one, so I took one of your old Mystiques and rigged it to your new one (the Supernova Mystique).

I hope that makes sense

[AfghanAnt]

Makes sense. How is the distortion though? I know Gren's new meshes and Ink's meshes don't typically play nice.

[BentonGrey]

AA, how can I say no to an offer like that?    Yes, that'd be fantastic!

[hoss20]

Here's another question, folks:  What skin/mesh combo would make effective flame minions for Pyro?

What about using the Fire Elemental characters that are built-ins? They are under the Foes section in the Character Selection Screen. They have flame FX, but for some reason Irrational decided to hide the flames in the combat animations.

[BentonGrey]

Right Hoss.  They're the obvious choices, but I would like to give him some variety too.

Hey, could anyone send me the mesh TM_basic?

[AfghanAnt]

Could add particle effect to the lion and eagle meshes.

Also I'll try to work on that skope tonight. Shouldn't take too much.

[SickAlice]

Far as tank type Grizzly (Theodore Winchester). Technically an at times merc but he'd make a good tank against Gambit. Or Bonebreaker since he literally IS a tank, lol.

[Cyber Burn]

I have a zip file with the "TM_Basic" Mesh that looks to just have the gun and cords visible. I think it's for  so it would need to be converted. Is that the one you want?

Otherwise I could strip down a "Taskmaster_Cordless" that has already been converted to basically a "Male_Basic" with a gun.

Or, depending on what you want, I can hook you up with a simple "Male_Basic" with a gun. Let me know which you would prefer.

[BentonGrey]

That TM_Basic sounds like just what I need, CB.    Hey, you're familiar with FX.  Would you be willing to look at the ones that are causing me troubles when you get the chance?

SA, I don't know much about Grizzly; would he take an assassination gig?

AA, I could have sworn that we had some fiery meshes already.  Do we not?

Okay, so I'm also going to need the Imperial Guard.  I've got all of Ink's meshes, I think, but I want to make sure that I've also got all of Gren's new stuff.  Did he make anyone other than:

• Electron
• Fang
• Gladiator
• Neutron
• Mentor
• Smasher
• Starbolt

He has quite a lot of meshes.  I think he has another 9 meshes, not including the ones you listed.

I'll upload them and put the link here.

EDIT: Here you go.

They were all converted to FFvtTR and there's a Hussar skope by Hoss included because it's awesome.

[SickAlice]

Grizzly was a mercenary so yeah, probably would. He rolled with Domino if that's any indication. I thought you may have been familiar from AOA. Though if your going canon he's deceased currently. He was an end boss in X-Men Legends 2 as well.

[BentonGrey]

Thanks Spyder, that was a big help!  Man, I'm especially glad you included that Hussar!

SA, yeah, I do remember him from AoA now that you mention it, just barely.  I actually just read a recap of Toad's role in that story and his fight with Grizzly as I was poking around for info on the Brotherhood. 

More on the Imperial Guard: Did C6 do any skins for Gren's meshes, or is my memory playing tricks on me?

Here's something new:

I need a volunteer, guys.  I am working on balance and tweaking character builds, and I've got some big casts to get put in for the next few X-Missions.  What I could really use some help with is the AI work.  I need someone who is familiar with the basics of M25's AIs or is willing to learn.  It isn't terribly complicated, and there really isn't that much to be done.  Still, it will probably take a bit of trial and error if you aren't already familiar with how M25's AI works.  Specifically, I'd like to have somebody do the AI customizations for me so I don't have to mess with them and can focus on getting the missions written and tested.  For example, Wolverine and Colossus need to have metal subtypes, Unus the Untouchable needs to focus on getting something to wield, Sentinels should hunt for mutants, etc.  This WILL give you early access to some new Marvel Adventures stuff, though.   Ideally this person could keep working with me going forward.

[Cyber Burn]

Cool, I'll try to send you the "TM_Basic" tonight. As for the FX, I'd be more than willing to take a look, just let me know what you need.

[BentonGrey]

Thanks CB!

Hey, can someone skope Gren's IG_Mentor to give him a few martial-artisit-y melee attacks, specifically some multi-contact attacks?

On a related note, can anyone skope Ink's imperial guard Midget mesh to have some shrinking keys?

I would love to help out with this.  I've been on a DC rampage as of late (rewatching Justice League: TAS), and I'd love to crack into some Marvel sessions. *cracks knuckles*

About the part in bold, I could have sworn that it was possible to add new subtypes, but I could never find where.  I'll figure something out.  I'm not out of imagination, just yet.

[BentonGrey]

Fantastic Spyder!  That will be a huge help!  I know there is a way to do new subtypes, but I don't know how to do it off the top of my head.  Thanks man, I'll send you a build of the mod in a day or two, once I've finished balancing and building in this cast.

[Cyber Burn]

If no one else volunteers, I'll try to look into it this weekend.

Perfect!

I look forward to working on this tomorrow and through the weekend.

[Jimaras8]

Benton from what i can figure you are done with the Pulp mod and started working again in MA? Yeah, i am really late for the party  . It's really sad for me to see all you guys helping Benton in one section while i am incapable of doing anything to contribute  . Anyway Benton may i ask in which missions you are working right now and maybe which ones you plan on adding?

[hoss20]

Hey, can someone skope Gren's IG_Mentor to give him a few martial-artisit-y melee attacks, specifically some multi-contact attacks?

You've got mail.

[BentonGrey]

Thanks guys, you're all awesome!

Jim, not quite.  I'm almost done with the Pulp Mod, but I'm taking a bit of a break from it.  I've got to finish the last mission and do some odds and ends, plus I have someone making some neat supplemental material for the project and am going to wait to release it until that is done.

As for Marvel Adventures, well, I'm mostly just messing around with the X-Men campaign because the new movie and rewatching the classic 'toon have put me in an X-Men mood.   I want to play in their world for a little while, so I am returning to the missions that I had outlined but not created.  I don't want to say too much about what will happen in these, as I want it to be somewhat new to folks who play them.  At the moment, I'm working on five new missions for the X campaign, but I probably won't turn my full attention to the Marvel mod just yet.  I will probably switch over to DC after I release the Pulp Mod, but we'll see.

Let me encourage you to try to find something that you can enjoy doing, Jim.  You don't have to be able to mod, script, skin, or mesh to contribute, you know!  I started out making voice packs as my first real contribution to the community, and here I am creating sprawling mods.  You never know where life will lead you.

[BentonGrey]

Gents, I don't know how I overlooked this, but I managed to only do half the skoping job on Angel's keys.  He needs a multi-contact flying melee.  The standard vxmale_wings keys don't seem to have a melee anim that I can convert.  Does anyone know where I can find one?  I know I had one once upon a time, but I haven't a clue where it is now.

[BentonGrey]

Thanks Hoss!

So guys, I'm trying to do some voice pack matching.  I'd love your input:
http://freedomreborn.net/forums/index.php?topic=57191.msg774503

Additionally, I'm looking for art assets for:

• Boomerang
• Bullseye
• Domino
• Zaran
• Grizzly
• Crossbones
• Assassin
• Harvester
• Nakh
• Mysterio
• Machete
• Porcupine
• Batroc

I'm not sure if all of these guys have been created, but I imagine most of them have.

[Podmark]

I have a Domino set on HF (you mentioned her twice BTW). I also did a skin for a Mysterio mesh. There's other skins for both of them out there too.

[BentonGrey]

Whoops!  Thanks Pod!
