Well i began this mod as a skinning development thing, but now it looks promising, so im posting it as a mod. The main goal of the mod is to have the Sun cult vs. the Moon Cult. The Sun Cult will have some very bright units, where as the moon cult will have very dark ones.
FACTIONS:
Selenia-moon cult
sun cult???
Here are some early screens.

You have some pretty cool skins. Have any battles yet?
King of Atlantis
08-19-2005, 21:58
yeah, I have a mini battle with every new unit, but i really want to have a good army done before I do anything major. I have some battle pics in the original thread.
And thanks!

Archers wearing plate mail? Thats pretty intense. I think i know whod win in an archer duel.

I have created the first installment of War of the Heavens. I really liked the idea of the Moon and Sun Cult. Ths story provides some form of background. Check in for more story later!

Shifty, thanks for your comments i really apreciate it.
But remeber the dark dudes have Evil power so you never know who would win. Im thinking all the dark units may be stronger, i mean in the movies the evil guys are always tougher... ~D

You should try your hand at making new models. How far are you planning on going with this mod?

Shifty i tries earlier, but failed miserably..
This mod began as a way to learn to skin(i still have only been skinning for 4 days), but i will fiish it. Units are probably about half way through, and changes to the actual game will be rather small. If anybody wanted to help by like making a custom map, that would be cool.

How about some "Wolves of Darkness" or "Lunar Hounds" wolves (dogs, whatever) who've been taught to kill???
I think that would be a cool edition to the game.
Also, I made Lunar Ghost vulnerable to Flaming arrows, hope that doesn't affect any plans ~;)

Why don't you make it so earth is caught up in this battle, and humans join in the fight against the cults, who are battling over earth? Then you could make lots of cool new units. You could make a 'human alliance' team, so the 3 factions are: Moon, Sun, and Earth. Earth could get lots of provincial units, eg. Samurai in Japan, Jaguar Warriors in Mexico.
BTW, how did you skin to make those lunar ghosts see through?
King of Atlantis
08-21-2005, 00:45
RTW King, I used alpha channels.
As for new units im planning, hellhounds, floating archers and Magicians that shoot out balls of fire...
Marshal Murat
08-21-2005, 03:14
I added some to Chapter two, and made magicians priest with special power. Now direct flame will kill a Lunar Ghost.

DARK WIZARDS
https://img399.imageshack.us/img399/2735/245ay.gif
Okay, these deserve to get a little desciption. They fly, shoot flamming balls of magic, and anybody that gets near them is flung far away...
They are the moon elite. The are so merged with the moon spirit that they can pull from its powers.

Moon Spirits
https://img369.imageshack.us/img369/4377/257th.gif
equal to peasants...
conjured up by a Dark wizard the serve as the base of any moonic army.
Those moon spirits are simple but very cool. They look like more than just a peasants ~:)
Overall pretty cool skins.

They are like the dark wizards. They are actually on a horse, so they really do look like there floating.

Just wondering but how exactly is alpha channeling used?
King of Atlantis
08-22-2005, 03:12
Like what do you mean? To change it go into photshop, and click on channels, next to layers,. Then you will be editing the aplaha channel. Sorry if that wasnt clear enough, i dont have much time now..

Sith Lords!!! Run!
King of Atlantis
08-22-2005, 23:27
hehe,
atleast my attempt at sith lords, the best i can do without a model. Light Knights comming probably toady, but after that work on this mod will probably slow down...

Sun Rays
https://img399.imageshack.us/img399/2509/305tm.gif
I know breath taking... ~D
They are the Sun factions peltast....
YOu should give them a little yellow hint...
King of Atlantis
08-23-2005, 03:41
nah, then they wouldnt be invisbile.......
this is a very creative use of recoloring and using alpha channel for stock units. Especially the dark horses....wicked!
headless horsemen...dark version
shining cavaliers...light version
Those are ideas that i just thought up of.

how about these- duskwraith the spirits of the great champions of the moon who died over the ages are on occasion dragged back into the world of the living to wreak vengeance apon the followers of the sun.

Kingwill, how did you make that half see-through unit. Its VERY cool ~:cool:
kingwill
08-23-2005, 22:04
you use a tone of grey on the alpha channel the darker it is the more transparent the unit becomes.
King of Atlantis
08-24-2005, 01:42
very cool. I would love to use that unit for the mod. You want to join?
BTW, the next units for my to do are:
Hell hounds
Light Knight-jedi
then headless horsmen and some Sun, light cavalry..
Those are the final units, unless of course some other people join...

https://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a398/kingwill/battle1.jpg
Very cool, prehaps you should put the sun between the horns.
A little more yellow...
kingwill
08-24-2005, 17:30
i did originally have the sun between the horns but it looked a bit silly maybe later if i can be bothered i'll try to make it look better
kingwill
08-24-2005, 17:59
how about this instead-
https://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a398/kingwill/brightriders2.jpg

NICE! and welcome to the team.. But for the horses, maybe you could make them have a sunish horse...
King of Atlantis
08-25-2005, 01:47
Small, sad, update...
This will be custom battle only. Also i am only making one more unit, the Light Kinghts. Then i will edit faction banners and get this out probably in a couple weeks....
