LordGood Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 Alrighty, I think the Assyrian broom bus needs some edits; the action of the ram is a bit odd, and I've been staring at this relief for a few hours and hypothesizing. Does it really move up and down, or does it's swing pivot on a high point, allowing it to hit at an upward angle? It would need to move less material, and more importantly, move it away from the ram itself. If anything it'd give the ram a more involved model and more dynamic animations than it already has. Also, perhaps we could explore tunneling and counter-tunneling in this thread, as the general siege tactic of most civilizations at the time was to clear the walls with archers or slingers, and then proceed to mine the walls. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordGood Posted May 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 I didn't see anything on the relief, for temporary siege weapons, dyed hides might be as far as the Assyrians were willing to dress their ram tower? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.Kanzen Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 Yes you have right... But I found something more, another Assiryan weapon a six wheels ram. The Persian uses this too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanderd17 Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 The animation looks a bit too vivid for me. I think it would cause a lot of effort to get the beam to move, and it certainly won't stop swinging that quickly. Here's an annoyingly narrated video, but it shows some nice pictures IMO. Pretty much what you designed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wowgetoffyourcellphone Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 (edited) I like the battering motion. Very good job! Are new model smaller than old model though? I liked how big the Assyrian Ram was. Don't forget about player color. Also, would be cool for two models: One all wood, then upgrade to extra armor! Can do this in tech with actor swap!

What, you didn't notice? haha Don't mind that thing in blender, there's an odd size discrepancy that isn't affected by display scale, strangely. It's actually the same size as it was before. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wraitii Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 Seems like a brilliant change to me, with the caveat Sanderd noticed. For our purpose, maybe make it reach a little less far? It'd probably go into the meshes of buildings too much like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The battering motion is very jarring with the current attack cycle. After I make another quicker, shallower motion I'll commit it to the SVN. I'll update here when that happens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanderd17 Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 You can alter the attack time for the battering ram (if you also alter the damage it deals, so it overall deals the same damage per time). But I indeed think that the fade-in and fade-out won't work on our game. Attacks just happen repeatedly and shouldn't fade in-between.

LordGood Posted June 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 That batter attack really needs to be slower IMO, even AoE only registered an attack every two batter cycles, It felt right for some reason 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its not possible to have a single entity have two different types of attack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
