Re: Cinggis Qayan, Wrath of the Khans -- Update 2: Three Eras
 

The mongol mounted commander/hero kind of looks like it has the head of a gryphon. Basically, the mane comes out looking more like a tuft of feathers, and the mouth comes out looking like a beak... a little less so if I lean in right next to the monitor, but by and large it looks like a beak. Sorry :( The man looks fine though. If he were sitting on a standard dominions horse he'd probably look fine.

Re: Cinggis Qayan, Wrath of the Khans -- Update 2: Three Eras
 

Agh! That stupid horse. First a cow head, now a griffon. That's IT.

That'll learn him.

I'll get back to the drawing board on his head tomorrow. :D

lol :)

Re: Cinggis Qayan, Wrath of the Khans -- Update 2: Three Eras
 

MA (house) and EA versions of the mod don't launch.
For MA, its two commanders sharing same ID : "Servant of Manzan Gurme Toodei" and "Servant of Gazar Eej"
There is a site problem in EA, but I haven't search for it. Cuz I'm lazy...
AHAH ! Got it, site 805 has no #end command

Re: Cinggis Qayan, Wrath of the Khans -- Update 2: Three Eras
 

Humakty, sorry I didn't have long to work on the mod, and kind of uploaded WIP versions; I will correct this... Thanks!

House version was not supposed to be shared and contains my original version. EA version launched on mine, didn't test it thoroughly though. :(

This isn't so in the version I meant to upload. :(

Thanks! My bro noticed the same thing; I hadn't noticed myself... strange that I wasn't getting any errors. I'll upload a fixed version ASAP. :)
Edit: Accidentally overwrote the #end tag when I added recruitables to "death-hall" startsite.

Side note: I'm working on magicboost combos for the randoms; I think that will come out closer to my intentions.

:) Thank you for continuing to test them out guys; I'm a little reticent to play them myself.

Re: Cinggis Qayan, Wrath of the Khans -- Update 2: Three Eras
 

Little bit better now? Or still not suggestive enough of a horse head?

As a side note, you reminded me that I sort of cringe every time I see a griffon in-game. They could definitely use an update. For my own use, I'm slowly converting an Imperial Griffon into a replacement sprite I can release later if anyone would like.

Hey, as a matter of fact, would you want to use captured griffon cavalry of some sort (summon or whatever) for one of your Mongol nation ages?

Re: Cinggis Qayan, Wrath of the Khans -- Update 3: Three Eras
 

Yes, it is better now. It still bears a certain resemblance to a certain winged beast though. Suggestion - the lighter-colored tip of the mouth is a good idea, but I'm not sure it will quite work out. It makes the unit look a LOT different. So, try it with a completely brown mouth and see how you like it.

Spritework update.

Archers, Female Mage/Priestess (possible Servant of Tengri or one of the other minor deities in the pantheon, depending on kennydicke's discretion) and Mounted Commander/Hero provisionally complete, and can be seen here:

Display 1 (male archer and mounted commander/hero)
In-Game Scene
Display 2 (female archers and mage/priestess)

(Thanks again, rdonj, for pointing out the visual glitch with the horse's muzzle.)

Criticism, suggestions and general feedback welcome.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Re: Cinggis Qayan, Wrath of the Khans 3 eras -- Update 4.2
 

While I did promise not to pipe up every time I finally finished a sprite, I thought it would be worthwhile to nudge the thread to show signs of life.

Now for a monster of a sprite: the Mongolian Mammoth. (Ancient mammoth? Siberian Mammoth?)

Mammoth Pics

Oh, and the replacement image for the now-defunct link (Display 1) in my previous post can be seen here:

Display 1 (male archer and mounted commander/hero)

Siberian Tiger is next. After that, I'll start on the cavalry, which I've sort of been subconsciously avoiding for some reason.

Re: Cinggis Qayan, Wrath of the Khans 3 eras -- Update 5
 

The mounted commander looks good, but almost seems too .. busy? It's very detailed, but I sort of lose the overall feel when looking at it.

The archer, particularly the attack sprite, is just darn awesome.
