One of the modlers (Fingar)

One of the modlers (Fingar) who briefly stopped in for the project was doing a Kwama, but without contacting us in recent times, will assume has lost interest in the project. There is a Guar in the monster mod that can be used.

Here is a full list of creatures with possible substitutes and who is working on what: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Alvwmz6hbHGPdHh...

Though I have to admit, those

Though I have to admit, those monster mod creatures pale in comparison to Ravanna's creations. :)

You are a certified rigging

You are a certified rigging machine!! I've got the feeling that you are already looking at adding them to the game. I have to say they are going to be the scariest cliff racers to encounter before we tone down their AI abilities :-P Firebreathing, hitting you with their tails, and generally eating you alive!! Should be fun.

if u knowe howe to do it can it have

a attack that fits a clifracer because it would be silly if it lands and walk slowly like a dragon to you before it can attack

Yup that would work, but is it going to stay low enough to attack it? Can you adjust how high they fly?

In 2 weeks time you'll say the same with another model, and it'll better, you improve too quickly to save "thats the best i can do".

Does it operate like a dragon in Skyrim? This version has legs- which i like. You know whwere it circles around and finally perches to attack or devour.

It cracks me up how

It cracks me up how religiously people try and stick with what the Morrowind format was! Cliff Racers didn't land in Morrowind because they ran out of time to do any kind of landing animation with attack. Granted i don't think we would bother trying to do anything other than an air attack, but seeing them perch up on the cliffs would be fantastic, and...more real.

Indeed, they have to land sometimes imo, it's far more realistic. Not every change is a negative one.

Oh, and no1, please try to type normal language, your posts are hurting my eyes.

That looks freaken fantastic. I gotta say im almost scared to have an airborn enemy as large in numbers as the cliffracer again. lol Especially sense they'll have some competent AI compared to morrowind. No more trouble descending and will actually try to dodge.

Hey all I gotta say is that's the best damn Cliffracer I've ever seen! I enjoyed fighting dragons in Skyrim. It will be fun to fight something similiar in morrowind.

it really depends on the

it really depends on the engine.
But generally in vray/mental ray, each pixel across a model accepts a light source, and then transfers its colour to a radius. Any part of that model's texture within the radius accepts that light and colour information and "glows".
Backlight SSS tends to create 3d radial information, subdermal SSS tends to spread that radius across the normals of a model.

ps. I have no idea what i'm talking about.
