Mythos_Ruler Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 We need good references for Indian heroes or heroic figures of this era. Our Mauryans will have 3 heroes: Chanakya Chandragupta Maurya Ashoka the Great I'll probably do the textures myself, unless others would like to jump in. Also, what type of mount should Ashoka and Chandragupta ride? A chariot, elephant, or horse? Could one ride a chariot and the other an elephant or horse, or what? Need to know. Thanks.

lilstewie Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) All the Indian emperors had female guards. But maybe in honor of Megasthenes who mentioned Chandragupta had them. Put Chandra on the chariot with female guards and Ashoka on the elephant?Chandra could go on the chariot unit that looks like this.

lilstewie Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 (edited) Instead of the crown a turban in its place.The drawing on the right is awesome. Edited March 3, 2013 by lilstewie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mythos_Ruler Posted March 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Chankya^ Pretty much what I think Chanakya should look like for the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enrique Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 That concept is badass Female ponytails are a prop? or it should be modeled with the head? (sorry if there aren't females with ponytails, but I think I saw them) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilstewie Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 It looks great. Two more to go. What are you or ndragu referencing for the other two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enrique Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 I'll probably start making Chandragupta tomorrow, but there isn't much references around, or I haven't searched like I should. This image posted above by Mythos maybe? http://www.wildfiregames.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=17026entry263881 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This image posted above by Mythos maybe? http://www.wildfireg...26Yeah, that looks great. The drawing on the right in particular looks great, but which ever one, just don't add the crown. Instead a turban like on the righ drawing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mythos_Ruler Posted March 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Chanakya?Looks good. Make sure to do some spec maps for his skin and bald head. Would enhance the look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enrique Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Chandragupta? (maybe better with mustache?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki1950 Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Tried out the new Chanakya on the sandbox map no projectile errors when involved in an attack.Enjoy the Choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enrique Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Tried out the new Chanakya on the sandbox map no projectile errors when involved in an attack.Yes, I know. It's because I modified the previous Xerxes template placeholder, and he fired arrows. But I took a look to the civ and Chanakya will not have an attack. It will be just a unit to research technologies. I'll try to make some changes soon. (maybe we could make him able to heal units also?)

lilstewie Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 (edited) The scale armor should look like the drawing. And overlap like scale armor usually do. Like on the elephant you made. Edited March 14, 2013 by lilstewie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enrique Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 Ok, so rounded scales then?Here's the current texture I made. I'll try to remake it using rounded ones. I'll probably remove the sleeves too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilstewie Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) Yeah, round. Maybe add jewelry(armlets, necklaces). Shows his prestige. Pretty much it I would guess. Edited March 15, 2013 by lilstewie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enrique Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 Here's the new texture, and ingame screens.Due to the fact that the UVs are stretched, it makes almost no difference from normal camera distance. Normal maps aren't helping/showing: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mythos_Ruler Posted March 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 Yeah, normal mapping soldiers would be a waste. Spec maps are noticeable though. Great texture! The sleeve that pokes out from under the scales would be another obvious choice for player color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the civ profile he seems to be a defenseless unit just to research unique techs, I think that giving him the ability to heal units could make him more useful than just tech research.

Making him a strong healer for now would be good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
