THE MUTANT UPRISING

First topic message reminder :

this is going to be my next addon. you will play as a captured american solider that has been used for experiments and has been turned into a mutant. but they forgot to wipe out his memory all the way and the mutant remembers who he is and what he has to do. so you get to try and get out of the place. if anyone wants to do coding you can do that now while the final fight is getting done. and whoever can delete threads can you delete the I have a new addon Idea thread?

anyways, some news is that John is willing for the summer at least to work on the mod.

Now what about weapons? for undead/mutant/scary theme shotgun was always THE weapon
Reloading feature can fit it well.
I can also design some more unique weapons, even futuristic....mutantkillers

well we have 2 different types of mutants, a shotgun guard and much more. If I remember correctly there was supposed to be like 7 or 8 weapons for the mod. as far as guards go we have a standard mutant, and then later on in the mod you start to see mutants that were experiments to make a better stronger and faster mutant. plus last I talked to toni we were moving the mod over to SDL.

We need some new gibbier death frames for a mutant IMO. Even a few different random-loaded death sequences...

Hello. Long time no see, Wolfenfans

I'm working on a rough draft for a heavily armored 'mini uber mutant' of sorts, mostly to see if I still have that Wolfenstein bone in my body in good shape.

I'll probably have it done tomorrow sometime, and then I'll post it up on this thread.

Edit:

Alright, finished earlier than expected.




He's in the TMU palette and everything.

Veeery nice...I'm IMPressed (a bit doomy humor)...this is one of the better enemy work I've seen recently.
The belt areas is a little....not finished though...bulky...you should round it a bit with shading...

Great looking enemy! Good to see that you're back, your graphics always look superb!

I created a sort of in-depth look on all the steps I followed to make the enemy. This sort of thing might be helpful if you're looking at getting into or have just started making Wolfenstein graphics.

This is the process I usually follow, and generally takes just a couple hours or less to finish an enemy once I've started. The image is sort of large, so open the Spoiler to see it.

Edit:



I made a hi-def single frame for a help picture or something. I might do this later for other enemies too. I don't plan on animating anything in this style though, as a single frame was too much of a pain.

I've looked at your manual...it's was sure interesting, between one sprite artist and another
I wonder why you use SpriteMaker for recoloring, when you could do this much easier with RecolorBMP in a sec. I use spriteMaker only for palette converting and darker texture creating.
Not only that, but you could lower the unbalanced shining of the lower metal with RecolorBMP without touching the rest of the sprite.

Overall it's anazing work, so I'll leave the enemy making to you. I might focus on weapons, scenery and textures...when project's head will finally decide when he needs and will start giving tasks.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. It's good to know my absence from the Wolfing scene hasn't made my skills too worse off.

Also, as I said above, I made some more hi-def single frames of some of the other enemies in the game. Click the spoiler to see 'em.

Really nice work/tutorial. I liked the doctor in lab coat.

this is amazing. if we can get a coder and some mappers we should be in business. also, megabyte when he's got a place where his comp can be set up he shall get to work on stuff for FF2 and he has offered to make a map or 2 for TMU.

In the spoiler is some more high def stills. Next update should have some crazy lab equipment, so stay tuned

Spoiler:

even though the place the images were uploaded to was closed I still like this
