Is possible to have Builders skin's redone to be fresh zombies?

[Deadlove]

A zombie with blood and flesh and armor same as current Builders but undead versions. They would move at same speed as normal builders. Skin showing would nees to be tweaked and some blood on armor. Also animation wouldn't have to change. As far as a voice set it can a processed version of existing lines to save time and add eerie undead voice to NPC.

 

Always found creation of new models is less productive than alternating existing models. Saving using existing assets.

 

I have a headless revenent in my WIP and it's quite eerie. I'm in process of adding a red flame for the head with crown, like I'm Requiem.

it would be something like this

the barmaid_ghostie texture is just a color grey. but you would have to copy and rename the textures you want to change, and either paint the extras yourself or get someone to do them.

 

that's roundabout what you have to do to change, settings might have changed though on the models, as I the wiki page has been updated and the information is a gone. it just now tells you to use the built in skin picker, but doesn't help if you want to make a custom texture for a ai model. you can change the skins on the armours as well so they looked blood splattered or zombie goo splattered, the armour is in a separate skin file.

I can make two sets of vocals if someone can rerig the model appearance. I can also asign sound shaders.

 

What else is necessary?
