Hey Dogscoff do you have a functional Version of your pictures to use with Rollo’s AI?
I might be able to help convert pictures to 3d, but I already have too many unfinished projects.

I painted Dogscoff's ships and combined them with Rollo's AI to make a full shipset.
Waiting for their approval to post it here.

Nope. Sorry. There has been work done since the Last upload but progress is slow and I've always said it will be. I haven't stopped working on them and I will get them finished eventually.

Yow! I'd better check my webmail. I did have some very definite ideas about the colours and things I wanted to include so I might get a little grouchy about this, but thanks for the contribution.

Thank you Andres,
both for your work and your interest. I guess that will be entirely up to dogscoff, since I just do the AI and dogscoff does the graphics. Just let me point out a few things:

1. The AI files are still under construction and currently in testing. I will post any changes in them in the mod archive to keep everybody updated. Current Version is 0.91, but if the Lastest changes have the desired effect, I might be comfortable enough to go 1.0 in the next update for the AI .

2. Currently the AI uses the generic (neutral) shipset with their own flag for testing purposes. So they can be already used and included in games. Using the painted pictures you did is fine with me. As I said before, it's up to dogscoff, if he feels comfortable with this. Right now, I personally still prefer to use the generic ships, because they remind me that there is still work to be done... .

3. The current racename is Rollvik (short for Rollos Vikings). This is just a temporary name for testing and PBM use. It is the flag and ships I use for my PBM games.I did this to avoid confusion with the official Viking shipset. I guess, if we are going to use the painted pictures, we will have to make a new racename.

4. Have you played with the AI, yet? If yes, let me know what you think. Please post only praise here and keep criticism private (email) . Just kidding, of course...

Whoops, dogscoff posted, while I was still typing... I hate when that happens.

One thing I forgot to mention: there is a small, but important patch for the Viking AI that I posted in the mod archive.
