wilson does not agree.

Ahahahahah! Awesome!

Well, you can always avoid it, snurtles and even the faster Snail King should still be pretty easy to outrun ;)

That's why a special drop is mandatory, or you won't have any incentive to engage it.

Will this do the trick? But it isn't finished but for testing purposes it will work I think. ^^

Can't download the PNG. It fails to load :(

I was thinking with our powers combined i'd clean up the unneeded spider sprites so they won't show, probably touch up a bit on the contrast since that green is showing as almost black in my monitor which completely obscures that awesome gaping mouth, and while i'm at it, since you've already done almost all the work, i could finish the details and missing sprites.

For a much more fulfilling test :D

That's why his goo should really slow you down! Surviving is sooo last week.

Works for me.

Direct link.

Also, is it only me, or does this thread feel like it no longer belongs in the Off-Topic section?

Totally agree. You'd still have to aggro it though, not a ragequit mob.

Works for me.

Damn! I'm this close to switching to Chrome! Damn, Firefox, why do you keep shunning me like this?

Thanks for the link!

EDIT------

Sorry Firefox, and everyone else.

I was using the download button thinking it would lead me to a bigger picture (that's the one that fails), but the 1024width one that loads in the page is the same... had it already. nevermind

Hmmm, can you get it from here? http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/96/esa8.png/

And I used a separate layer to drow the change on so you could get it without a single Spider part on it if you like.

PS: I tried it myself and the quality is ''not the best'', said friendly...-_-

You tried it ingame already?Yeah it's a ***** to get right, the sprites are disproportionally resized when loaded. It will be a long process just to align the head with the body at the right place...

No, no I tried downloading it from imageshack and the quality isn't good, downgraded to an extent I don't want to mention, sorry if I wasn't clear in my speech.....OoOBut I know the problem from my work for the Bear Mod....it is quite a task to get it look at least ok...^^

Sorry Firefox, and everyone else.

Holy ****! This is messed up!

I think we should consider doing a Carcolhcopter! lmao

I'll see if I can find a way to lower it. Otherwise we'll really need the tentacles.

The only issue I have is the mouth...maybe the slime should kinda go away to reveal teeth when it attacks. Right now, you can't really see the mouth.

Mouth is in the wrong position, but yes, i don't think the slime is very menacing, there should be some fangs there for damage...
Agreed: OpenSource 4evah!

Could you hand me the .tex? Having to boot into Windows every time I want to convert something is really a pain and a waste of time.

Here you goEDIT-------

Hang on, I'll try to fix it first, since I still think the Spider Queen anims are worth it.

I just don't see any advantage at this point... besides, nothing really lost, we've just been goofing around with textures so far. Edited by lifemare

Before we scrap the spider queen anims, can someone post a screenshot of the beefalo sprite?

post-80560-13764598251711_thumb.pngThe animation is pretty cool with a body close to the ground and barely visible hoofs that might be turned into something else. There's altogether a lot more room for replacing sprites due to it's huge head and mouth, existence of a tail sprite and horns, and a dome body that would be very easy to convert to a shell. It can shed fur, and therefor potentially turn into a different body (animated shell)... Edited by lifemare

Koalefant is simpler, might be better in terms of closeness to the ground, but i can't spawn it through the console or the TestTools mod to check its animation...post-80560-13764598252381_thumb.pngEDIT------But those ears..... hmmm... they'd make pretty cool mouth pincers like the ones i drew on the last sketch. I wonder if they twitch in the game animation?...

Edited by lifemare

And maybe the horns could be tentacles...but I still don't know. The body and head are REALLY close together.

That isn't a problem, you don't have to use the entire height or width of the head. But being tall you can have a real stretched snail head from the ground to almost the top of the body (unlike the spider).I'll mess around with it to illustrate this, if Simplex doesn't come up with something else.

You've got a point. EDIT: Also with the more roundedness of the body we might be able to make it a swirly shell instead of just a round one...

Nice but the shell...

Just a mock-up Symage, it's really ugly and has a lot of bad placements and chopped edges.I think we're still a bit far from having an unanimous design.I for one think the Snail King needs a lot more character and special features than just being a menacing-looking snail.EDIT-----

YES! Like in Millenium's sketches. That would be a lot better than just a solid round WWII helmet for a body.... Edited by lifemare

But we should keep the spiky element, I really like that. But maybe have the spikes farther spaced, and have more varying lengths.
