My first Mech, New Version Available!!!!! Options

[Machine]

I want to give special thanks to LKO for his great tutorial and help.

It's a very big mech; which would fit nicely with LKO's mech warfactory :biggrin:
Inspired by Emperor (Harkonnen Devastator) I present you the GDI Devastator.


Preview in max


In-game and TS style cameo

The download (with the unit, basic coding and the cameo).

The coding:

Rules.ini:
[DEVASTATOR]
WalkRate=1
Speed=3 ;low values 3 or 2 work fine
Turret=no

Art.ini:
[DEVASTATOR]
Cameo=DEVAICON
Voxel=no
Remapable=yes
Facings=8
WalkFrames=40
StandingFrames=1
StartWalkFrame=0
StartStandFrame=320
PrimaryFireFLH=0,0,0
StartFiringFrame=320
FiringFrames=1

I hope you enjoy this "small" unit as I do.
Give credit if you use in a public release

EDIT: BTW I forgot to say that I have not found the FireFLH; would be a great help if someone does

EDIT2: New Version!!!

I am a phophet! I told you Machine, you're a second LKO

Though the name rather confuses me. GDI, being a "peace"-loving organisation wouldn't use such a name. Maybe Pacifier?

juhu, another shp maker. :biggrin:
the next X-Mech Calender is up to you machine.
btw the unit looks good and for the first one really impressive.
Next time you make such a big unit, it would be better to make it with a turret. then the fireFLHs are better placeable because of the higher amount of rotation frames.

now start making smaller shp units. because the smaller they are and still have a good amount of details the better you are. And Infantry is the highest goal. :biggrin:

Sir, yes sir

I already have an idea, will be a wacky desing for some maybe, and will be an infantry (sort of)

A mech calender for the end of the year?, I'll would prefer a shp calender, or we may get too many mechs .
There's never too many mechs.

BTW, I might give it a turret, but that won't be today

OK, only mechs could become boring so mixed with infantry, buildings etc. A mixed Calender.
Maybe we make an shp-calender together. Thats not so much work for everyone and the designs are very different, giving it much more variety. But the year is long, and we will see what comes. :biggrin:

Making a shp-calender together, sounds good. Since I think that doing it alone, would be a task too big for me, specially I might be in the university classes; it still amazes me that you did yours alone

@Bittah Commander:

I'll make the body the turrent in a near future; too bad that if it were a barrel should be voxel, since I don't like voxels mixed with shps, look at the titan, without watching any pics of it, that are not in-games, you could hardly say in which side the barrel is, since it's always switching positions.

@El D34dlyto:
I named Devastator, because I originally inspired in the Harkonnen Devastator of Emperor; But I'm not going to give it that name in-game; since all big GDI mechs uses names of giant creatures, I was thinking in Golem, Leviathan, or something like that

BTW it's nice to have your feedback
