[BentonGrey]

Thanks guys!  Here's another new one; what's out there for: Captain Comet?

[daglob]

I've got an old skin by somebody that is on a hex-edited Adam Strange. You should find it in your mailbox shortly; use it if you need it.

I want to do the new version, but it wasn't until recently that I could control particle emitters.

[BentonGrey]

Thanks DG!  Of course, if you do tackle the new one, I will definitely be interested. 

A new one:  What skins are there for silent_snake?  I am was using the mesh for Rick Flagg, and it's great for a commando character, but the skin is recognizably Snake.

[daglob]

I think I have one for Silent Snake...

Later:

No, it's for Silent Scout.

[BentonGrey]

There may be no skins for it, but I thought I might get lucky.  If anyone is interested at creating a modern, less ridiculous looking version of Flag (one not wearing a bright-yellow, V-neck shirt) based on that mesh, let me know!

Here's another new one, one of the great oversights of the original DCUG: What is out there for Swamp Thing.

[detourne_me]

Daglob's got a really great Swamp Thing skope and skin at Alex's. I also released an imported mesh from Injustice

Laughing Paradox has a few versions of Rick Flagg, but no skins on the Solid Snake mesh.

[BentonGrey]

Thanks DM!  That lead/reminded me of a real treasure trove of stuff!  My list of characters to update/add just got a little longer.    I found Plastique there.  I knew I had seen her someplace.
 
So, another one: What is out there for the original, Golden Age Blue Beetle?  I thought I had him in, but apparently not.

Also, still looking for this:

Hey guys, I am apparently missing the mesh I used for Toyman's toy armymen.  This is strange, as I know I had it once upon a time.  Does anyone have a hexed version of Captain America WWII that's scaled down to toy size, with a green army man skin?  The name is supposed to be something like: CAWW2_army men

[daglob]

There are several Golden Age Blue Beetles; Tommy has a couple I believe, and Kenn has a couple too. I know I had the army men, but I can't find them.

[Panther_Gunn]

Here's another new one, one of the great oversights of the original DCUG: What is out there for Swamp Thing.

Only slightly off-topic, but depending on which version or where in the timeline you're thinking, Xaphan made a VP for him in FF1, but it's all non-verbal, so no talking.

I know I had the army men, but I can't find them.

If it can't be found how hard would it be to shrink down the Soldier mesh?  I'm sure a generic army man skin could be knocked out by someone (more talented than me).

[BentonGrey]

Yeah PG, I'm sure that would be simple enough.  I'm just annoyed because I know I had it at some point in time!

If no-one can find it, I will have to request a 'green army man' skope/skin.

So guys, I've got some new requests coming, but first, does anyone happen to have any idea how the game applies the 'telepathy' effect to a portrait during a mission?  Like, where is that stuff stored?  I'm getting a pink portrait during 'speaking telepathically' scenes, and I'm not sure how to fix it.

[BentonGrey]

No ideas about the telepathy thing, huh?  Shoot!

Anyway, here's a new one.  What's out there for Mal Duncan as the Guardian?

I'd love to help, but I am completely ignorant on the subject.

Kenn has one at Alex's place.

[detourne_me]

Kssaints also made a few Guardian skins for Mal Duncan.

[BentonGrey]

Thanks guys! 

Here's another one:  So, I know some folks have made some gorilla troops armed with guns.  What is out there that could serve as Gorilla City troops?

[Incredible Bulk]

Anyone have Grenadier's Male_basic_eternal handy?

[Deaths Jester]

<ponders what Gren's male_basic_eternal has to do with the DCU and why BG isn't asking for it>

BG, on the gun monkies, DM has a nice Monsienur Mahla and a Hit Monkey port in his Mediafire stuff (see his "Imported" post in Promotions for the site url).

[BentonGrey]

Thanks DJ! 

I remember someone putting out like a whole set of gun monkeys, but I can't remember who....

[Deaths Jester]

That sounds like something Cyberburn might've done as some cannon fodder but I'm not sure...

[BentonGrey]

Yeah, it might have been, but I feel like it was someone else.  Darn my memory! 

Hey Panther Gunn, I tried to send you the following via PM, but your inbox is full!

Spoiler

Thanks for offering to make some portraits for me.  There are so many moving parts with a mod, and especially one of this scale, that any and everything that I don't have to do myself is a big help!

I think it was you who helped me with this last time, right?  If so, it's like old times again!   

If you're willing, I'd love it if you'd field more of these for me.  I'll be adding characters relatively steadily, and it would be a help.

At the moment I've got a need for:

The Gambler
The Fiddler
The Mist
Liberty Belle
And
Abra Kadabra (classic costume)
Haunted Tank (M-3 Stuart)
Baron Blitzkrieg
Icicle I (classic costume)
Javelin (classic costume)
Slipknot

[daglob]

Thanks DJ!

I think CB did the Killa-Rillas with other weapons. I can send them, but mostly we would have Texas Jack's Monsieur Mallah and Tommy's Gorilla Man.

[Deaths Jester]

Blast DG beat me on Tommy's Ken Hale...thwarted once more by synthetic silly putty...

[BentonGrey]

Well darn.  I know I remember this.  It was a big group shot of different gorillas armed with different weapons, and it wasn't CB's Killarillas.  Ohh well, maybe I imagined it.

I downloaded Tommy's Gorillaman_tf, and I think he'll do the trick.  Would anyone be willing to skope some sci-fi/hi-tech weapons onto him for me so he can be a Gorilla City trooper?

On a different note, can someone give me a simple white skin of the Centurion_spear_toss FX?

[BentonGrey]

Okay, I figured out the spear texture, so that's good, but I still need the following:

• toy army man skope/skin
• gorilla soldier skope with sci-fi weaponry

So, I got the various HF packs y'all sent me, and they've been a help, but I know I had some really massive HF packs for  .  Does anyone have those?  I'm sure I could adapt some FF 1 HFs for characters that I don't know well.  It's helpful just to have a base.  Makes the process less daunting!

More coming!

[detourne_me]

do you have Revenant's Killarilla skopes for Gorilla Grodd's Army?
I'll post the skopes I have of his.
https://www.mediafire.com/file/7274hid27c76k3x/RevenantGorillas.zip/file
Keep in mind, I renamed the folders of the characters, to my liking,  don't remember the original names.

[BentonGrey]

DM to the rescue!  No, I didn't have them, but I think that must have been what I was thinking of...and that it must have been a lot longer ago than I thought! 

Thanks!  These are perfect for gorilla grunts!

[BentonGrey]

Here's another super minor one.  Would someone please do simple color change on the FFX green cage?  I want to create a yellow cage for Sinestro.  I'll send whoever volunteers the texture.

[Helix]

That should be easy enough. Send it to tylerchesky@yahoo.com

[Cyber Burn]

I've collected a lot of Hero Files over the years, for both FF1 and FFvt3R, not to mention all of my own that I've experimented with as well. Let me grab my files, put them together, and upload them, and then you're more than welcome to do with them as you please. Fair warning though, there are a lot of duplicates.

Just give me about 5 - 10 minutes...
