Providing Animations?

**Ryman2489** · 05-03-2006, 23:29

Greetings Development Team of Europa Barbarorum,
My name is Ryan, I represent a conversion mod called RTR: Platinum Edition. We have already released a very stable 1.0 Beta Version, which has recently received a patch to version 1.3.

Our goal is to provide a complete conversion of Rome Total Realism Gold Edition to RTW v1.5, which, among numerous things, allows us to enable night battles, improve the AI, and rid ourselves of the dreaded save/load bug that has plagued all v1.2 games.

So far we have received third party help with unofficial downloads, some included into patches to make them official. The most popular addition of this outside help is the Darth Formations modified by Darth himself to be 100% compatible with our conversion.

Though we are in a stable playable version of the conversion, we were unable to adapt the animations from RTR Gold into the v1.5 engine. We used SignifierOne's animation pack (with his permission of course) to provide a temporary solution while we sought outside help.

I have seen your mod in action personally, and the animations are superb. I, along with the team behind the conversion progress, and our loyal fans following it, would be extremely thankful if you would be willing to lend your animations to our conversion project, since we, like yourselves, currently run off of v1.5.

If you did provide us with your animations, credit would be appropriately displayed in the "Credits" section of the opening intros. If you require any other forms of providing credit, please provide them and I will see what I can do.

I thank you for your time,
Ryman2489

As a notable aside, RTR Platinum does not represent the RTR development team. It is simply a conversion project by forum members to make RTR Gold compatible with the 1.5 patch for RTW.

That is all

Ryan,

Here is my suggestion. Alin, the EB Leading Animator, released some time ago an animations pack. Ask the EB leaders for permission to use it in your mod. Contains about 800 new animations.

That's exactly what he is talking about.

It is being discussed....at our entmoot.

I know this is not strictly on topic but... Speaking of EB animations, what's happened since alin left? Will there be any new animations or tuning of those already in the mod?

If not, is it because there is no more work to be done on animations or because there's no-one to do them?
