| Post subject: | Let someone make some... tanks! |
Oh, well not complete tanks, but I would like someone to make sprites, and bodyparts for some things, my idea is to make many tanks of various sizes composed of every possible combination of following elements: "Legs": -Tracks -Two thrusters -Some cool looking anti gravity devices -Legs (4 legs, like crab ones) -and also side thrusters for flying tanks Arms(Guns): -Big cannon -Flamethrower -Laser -Machinegun And also various body sprites for following types of tanks: -Light and small(like Dreadnought armor, but a bit bigger) tank -Medium small tank (a bit bigger, and more dangerous looking) -Heavy, but small tank (heavily armored) -Medium(like standard(real) tanks...) light(...but smaller) tank -Medium Medium tank - the most standard type of tank -Heavy Medium tank - Quite big, and very deadly -Monstruos(quite large, and very terrifying), but quite light tank -Monstrous Medium tank - very big(body at least ~170 pixels of height ) -Monstrous Heavy tank - the biggest, and almost indestructible Also, it would be good, that there would be separate legs/tracks/whatever sprites for each size class (Small, Medium, Monstrous), and at least 2-3 sizes of cannons. If anyone would manage to draw sprites, and .ini files for every of that parts I would write a program, that would create .ini`s for every possible combination. |

Tanks have been made many times, even a hover tank, but a pack of different tank in one mod... |

I suggest you stay away from large tanks; they're bloody draining to do (speaking from experience) and kinda buggy in the end anyway. this would be a cool project though, as long as you have a lot of time to give to it. i'd play the finished product, and test if you needed, but im tied up too much to work on this at the moment. i like the idea. |

If you're new to modding, which I hope you're not, you'll be using a lot of base copies. If you do, then tell me and I'll check if you've used something which isn't on the mac version, and fix it. |

Im on it, and isn't so easy as it seems, each "-" can give you 4 or 5 unexplainable errors... |

Tou see... I`m veeeery lazy, and lately I got a bit(luckilly small bit) bored with modding CC, and so only thing I would do is to write a simple C/C#/C++ program, that would create ini`s for all possible combination of elements. And creating .ini`s for all the parts is your job (including all the offsets), so I could just create copies of cannons/legs/etc, modify their params, and attach to copy of body with specific name, weight, move speed, etc. And I`m happy to hear, that you like my idea. |
