They look great, awesome job!

Where do you put these? How can they be used?

Thanks Henk. Good job. They look ...cute

.
The banshee needs to look more threatening though.
Good to hear that you got the game

.

BTW, Akachaki, if you read this. Of course, I still have uses for for your elves as well, the more the merrier.

Now let's see, where can I stick these guys in...

Uhm, actually I'm not sure

They should be added to a module I guess, which would require editting of text files. but I made these pictures because Rollo needed some elves for the hack and slash mod, so I guess they'll show up somewhere eventually.

I'm not working on a mod right now. I only got the game yesterday

and I guess I'll be busy playing the mods that are already out there for the first weeks, after that who knows..

Wow this looks good , i can't wait to explore this futur map. i love the idea of making it like this with the path in the trees and the hoardes of elves. The map reminds me a map of a game called geneforge.

Hmm I see what you mean with cute

. I could make some evil elves, just changing a couple of pixels for the eyes should do the trick... Anyhow I always thougt as elves as friendly (except for drow or darkelves, but that's something different)

Rollo, looking at your sneak preview I noticed that you are using the 'old' graphics for the trees/forests. Did you try the new 'facelift' tiles I made that changed all the trees and forests on the winderness and town maps? Did you know I made new forest and tree tiles?

...let me find the link to save you some searching... brb...

Ok, here is the thread with the new tiles..

Facelift thread...

You might want to backup/rename the old tiles first. Just in case you don't like the new ones.

Cheers!

Edit: Rollo, here is a deer you can use on the forest map...

I'm really not sure about this. these pictures are original, but the elves just don't look as good as the dwarves which were VERY good. the ears are too big and their heads are too big.

regards

Henk - nah, don't bother to change them. I like them the way they are. They don't look so cute anymore, once they launch that barrage of arrows at you...

. But the banshee should be more evil looking, more a ghost/undead/spirit kind of thing. Perhaps with her mouth open (banshee wail).

David - thanks for the facelift links/bumps and the deer. Do they new tiles overwrite the old ones? Or do they add variety? Hmm, I think I have to be careful with overwriting stuff...
