[sgsandor]

You guys are friggin' dope! I take my hat off to you guys! Wow! One question...When do we get to play it?

[abou]

It's a surprise.

[Digby Tatham Warter]

It's a surprise.

I am surprised you didn't ask him how long a bit of string is.

Nice to see that Karthies Forest Nellie, will now be getting a Howda and extra fire power.

If the textures in EB are mainly 256x256, then what will they be in EB2, 512x512?

Congrat's to all you EB's, on the further advancement of your hard labours.

Cheers,
Digby.

A question to the EB team: Wasn't the original reason why the Carthies did not have howdas on their elephants the one that they didin't use those? Just wondering.

[LusitanianWolf]

AWESOME!!!!!!!!
I want the next release!!!!! Congrats to the team!!

M2TW uses 1024x1024, but that space is used to store all internal units variations as well. So, effectively it amounts to a number of 512x512 textures packed in a bigger one. Or so I thought one of the artists explained.

[abou]

Yup, four 512x512 variant skins.

I did not await so many notes to my innocent questions. I am very sorry of my mistake, I have found the book...scutum was carried really "from up to down", but it is strange, that in early medieval period the "almond shield" was carried from "from down to up".

[Hooahguy]

i like the units, but i think the plume of the cohors imperatoria should be taken off and the shields a little bigger. other than that- awesome! great work!

I mean, is there a reason for that? That's not a productive thing to say really. Do you have evidence that their shields are the wrong size, or that they shouldn't have plumes?

according to Adrian Goldsworthy, plumes for the regular solders started to die out by Augustus time.with the shields, they just look better when theyre bigger.

hello to all .............

I wanted to ask the permission in order to use the file.cas of

Thureopherontes Toxotai

I want to create with it an unit of Nuragic warrior.

therefore a armed model serves me is of bow that of sword

naturally I will have to completely modify the skin of thureopherontes.

I can make it?

I guess there's no problem at all, but since i'm not a member of the EB team, i suggest you wait a bit more, till one of them say if you can or cannot.
