Hi modders of all kinds!
I'm posting a little update on our project MechOverride, which has been joined by some excellent people in the field of mapping and animations, lately. So, what's going on behind the scenes?
- the new, and final, script will be released in Episodes. I'm about 40% done with it. First three Episodes are written.
- Concept Art of our first biped Mech, nicknamed "Ike" has been approved of and gone into blueprinting
- Modeling on said Mech will be done by Toast, starting next week
- Texture Artist Kraphik3d has taken up his work on Rodas face texture and delivered stunning results
- Citizen_J is remodeling the characters head, because the WIP has some geometry problems
- Fábio has finished both versions of the gun and is working on the LOD model
- while waiting for the final head version, Kraphik3d is texturing the gun
- Angelo and NPX have been busy creating environment sketches and moody takes on our cityscapes,. I'm updating our image gallery soon
- Xenobite is rigging and animating the first models
- Brian Shipp is creating the sandbox map for all our testing needs
- Andrew aka Baldemyr is creating a corporate look for a evil empire (in clothes) and also designs our female lead's stealth-suit. After that he's on to Character concepts (General Aecius).
That's what's happening in the background and we steadily work towards a first release in November. I hope you'll enjoy watching this project a lot in the future, when you get to see details of the production process and come to understand our film's philosophy. We want to entertain you the best way we can. So order your MechOverride Popcorn - Maker, today!
Thanks. ^-^
How goes your own mod btw? I take it, it's a machinima/film project? The shaders are looking good. :D
yo dude what do you mean ?
Hey Sinking,
How are you and MECHOverride doing?
Cheers
Hanzie
haha working, whats up man hows everything?
Hah - I ranked up to level 11 today! What a great day - whatever that means. Is it good, am I bad, does leveling mean you get more on ground with things, or is it just "there"?
I'd like to become a level 99 mage with mapping and coding powers. I would overwrite all existing mods and create a mod-Bable, where everyone would help build the tower to heaven and create a game, even god couldn't resist to play!
of course all of that's just bullshit, but you know how it is: writer's got do write, duck has to duck...
Level up! ++
Great new concepts Sinking! Keep it up!
Dein Projekt "MechOverride" klingt wirklich total interesant und die Umsetzung mit dem Rotoscope-Shader find ich echt klasse. Ich hoffe es wird was draus.
Thanks. I do try my best to make things people can enjoy in the work I do.
Can't wait to see something from your mod, it looks like you got a lot of great people working together. How come your modeler, Citizen_J, does not have a profile here? He's pretty damn good from what I've seen.
Good luck on the machinima.
Nice blog!
