The reapers have returned from dark space. With Earth under attack and the mass relays in a state of chaos from refugees and the councils fleet engaging reaper forces the galaxy is a mess. The outcome is unknown, the warfare is devastating. The galaxy will never be the same.
Figured i would show the WIP skin from all angles.
Spooky....
Mummy... there is a monster on my screen...
... a damn beautiful monster, I have to admit.
Looks so good I might have to give it violent anal. :|
I rofl'd reading that.
Will that be its natural position flying through space, idk if the engine allows for all the legs to move and such but just thought I'd ask.
The devs on the Sins website said that the Iron Engine is flxible enough to mod, I dunno HOW flexible it is for the scripting of the movements of the ship pieces and such, but I bet you it IS possible.
It IS possible, but it is also damn hard (and time consuming.
And damned resource consuming.
Actually it isnt, sins does not support animations, there is a work around using particle effects but its hard as you have to make it in every single state, also it is only reallly possible for simple animations like rotating sections ect.
its going to be fixed, too much time and effort to get it right
fixed as in not moving or fixed as in moving. if it is possible it atleast needs to be done after the rest of the mod is finished. finish the mod then add nice extras. time consuming sucks and i dont understand the resource consuming but after the mod is done if the polish can be added to make it more realistic then it should be done.
I believe skyline5gtr meant fixed as in static.
Resource consuming means that it will demand more graphical/processing power from your computer for the game to run smoothly. As I understand it the task in itself is also very, very time-consuming, as it is not "natural" to have animated models in Sins.
While it is true to the universe, it really isn't *necessary*.
exactly, if we animated it besides taking forever to get the rig right which im not even sure how to do it would be a huge drain on the cpu/gpu of the computer and cause a large amount of lag
he's going to eat all those cerberus for breakfeast, alliance for lunch, and the rest of the galaxy for dinner...and thats just Tuesday
And then (on my computer) gets stopped dead in its tracks by the laser happy covenant (megaton level weapons for the win)
A cluster of those sovereign type reapers will destroy my planets, one, by one...
Or all by one if they are in hurry.
Will the small feet be changed? Having them point outside looks strange. For the rest it looks amazing! :)
But... It's their combat stance?
Oh it is? Never knew that sorry :o
Our ships will need some Garrus calibrations to beat him...
They are good, but take ages to complete.
Enlarge the picture and look the elaborations... This is unbelievable.
I know this is still the WIP skin, but will the final model be keeping any of that Covenant-ish coloring?
i may try it, i dont want to spend weeks on this since there is still alot too do. We are going to do the conduit and the team colors so its going to be rather simple
I hope you guys adds some team colors that match the textures aswell. I'm really looking forward to doing like 1v1v1 or 1v1v2 against 2 reapers. I looks kinda wierd with a blue cerberus and green alliance etc.
its not covenantish colored....its purple...purples been around since b4 them uk...reapers are purple. granted they normaly look a darker purple but they are still purple...
I don't know if it was my TV or I'm just color blind, but I always saw the reapers as more of a dark blueish.
Its like some sort of Japanese pornography.
Finally a textured reaper, Im so happy! :D Looks GREAT! Any ideas which angle its going to be in or are you going to let the fans decide that later? Its pretty hard to decide which angle looks the best unless you see it ingame moving and attacking etc.
Keep up the good work and keep us updated with more screenshots! <3
I really wish they good be as dark as in the game, but they'd probably disappear into the background of space in sins. Looks great right now though, I can't wait to see how good it'll be when complete.
yea thats why i choose to lighten it a bit more, i tried it against a dark backround and the silhouette just wasnt strong. The backround in the pics are a grey too
I still think its a little bit too bright. I think its possible to darken it a little bit more to make it more like in the games.
Imagine that beasty flying at you. I'd just surrender my body right then and there.
And maybe pee a little.
Hot damn that is a beast of beauty! albiet a scary beastie. Just a shame sins doesnt support animations, would be amazing to see the legs move ingame.
I might have peed my pants... Yep...
I can't wait to impose order on the chaos of organic evolution with that at the head of my reaper fleet, it is amazing! :D
Or harbinger at the head of your fleet? Or the Ravager..
Nope. Because Sovereign is the Vanguard of your Destruction.
All reapers were created in harbingers image who was created from the leviathans.
Masseffect.wikia.com
Ah. Right. But that doesn't change the fact that Sovereign was way more badass than Harbinger could ever be!
Where are the eyes on these behemoths anyways, never could figure it out...
hoo....it gave me chills
badass, can't wait to smash some organics
So beatifull... Too bad I'll be crushing these with my Council ships! >:D
