The animations are too short to really tell much, but they definitely aren't bad.

I think we should sign you on as a modeler anyway, see what you can do with a character concept sketch.

From what I have seen it shows promise. I don't know how you can do realistic animations, because we don't really need cartoon style animations for our mod. The animations show at a good eye for details which is very important for that.

 

And since Oddity himself agrees, I guess you can't get any better voice than that. :)

 

You will get contributor status first. This means that you will have access only to a restricted part of the boards. Any stuff that you submit to us, will be ours to use for the mod alone. You retain your copyright of course, and you can do whatever you like with it. It only means that we are allowed to use it as well as long as we only use it for the mod.

 

If you agree to this then please register on the forum and post when you did, so we can sign you in.

Lol, that's a long shot Spar, there were a thousand names in that game) My real name is Rod, so does that make me the two handed sword trainer from the mercenary farm in Gothic 2?

For the 3rd animation, which shows more realism than the first two, it needs some work to be a fully realistic animation. The upper body/head motions seem good, needing a little improvement, but the lower body/legs need more work. For example, when running the legs seem to be pulliing the upper body along because the upper body is too far back. The upper body should lean forward more while running. It's good to have you aboard though. Good luck!

thanks darkness falls :) its great to be here!

about the animation, needs improvement yes.. but the body will only lean foward while in the middle of the running (a run cycle for example). you can notice that when you're breaking to stop running suddenly, the body leans backwards in the last couple of steps. this way you can retain your balance with the movement of your upper body.

of course, i had a bad time trying to reproduce that! lol :) but i belive the idea is correct

I thought you might say that ;) There's just something amiss about the animation, but it's all good. I could try to explain more, but it's a demo so I don't want to say anything to discourage you. I look forward to seeing your work for the DarkMod!

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?

      Hope everyone has the blessing of undying motivation for "The Dark Mod 15th Anniversary Contest". Can't wait to see the many magnificent missions you all may have planned. Good luck, with an Ace!
