    Hello everybody,
    I wanted to reply in the Dungeon to a thread where barroca laid out somehow too info on Elephants and Chariots but I am unable to post there.
    I do have several questions of a technical nature. I could really use some help from somebody who knows the technical side of the numbering of the positions relative to the bif pics.
    I read the camera angles must be 0, 180, 60, 120 degrees. But, when I look at any of the horse mounts they appear to be on a camera angle looking down at the mount and not directly at it. So, that adds some confusion to my task.

    So, I need to do the same relative angles and not just 0,180,60,120 to make it look good in MTW right?

    Next question: From reading the Post it sounds like I can just put the elephant & chariot anywhere in the bif as long as I keep them in the same relative position in all 12 frames, right?

    Next question: How do I assign the numbers to the bif pics to determine where a Run/charge or stomp/attack stand, or walk should be?

    Next Question: The steeds all have 16 images per frame. The elephant should have these 16 position angles plus any attack motions correct?

    I am sure I have more or I will come across some the further I get into this. All help is welcome. I'd love to give the Carthaginians Some elephants in my Punic War Mod. Thanks

    Thumbs up

    Metal Storm, look at your group again. You are a Senior Patron and can post in the Dungeon. Therefore, I'm going to move this to the Dungeon - Alchemist lab forum.
