So, as I say in a previous topic in General Discussion, here a pictures topic.

Share your creations, maybe just the picture could give ideas to a programer ;)

Here I made what I call a mimic :

I'm currently trying to program it. For now it's just a stronger carnivorous plant (share lot of aspect...). But I'll make it look like a chest when you are far to see this jump on you, tooth first.

PS : don't use JPG for image, as a destructive format of image... Avoid GIF too.
Long life to the PNG, long life to the really free format ;)

hmmm i ll just post the name of items i ve drawn, not the graphics ( they are in pcx format and im lazy).But if its necessary, just ask and i will

so:
- butterfly of storms

- dice of terrible risk ( but kinda sucks )
- baseball bat
- the easter bunny
- easter bunny egg
- carnivor mushroom

- gargoyle ( limb severable creature )
- alternate graphic to amulet
- alternate buckler
- flute of snake control
- alternate hammer
- alternate mace
- spiked fist
- chest mimic

- special graphic for vermis, banshee sickle, giantslayer, mammoth axe, mjolak,mucro, Neer se-ulb, saal'thul, thunder hammer, undeath scythe, venom dagger ( no special graphics for turox because i think the original mace works really well for this one, so i just made an alternate mace graph for the normal mace ).
- fortune banana cookie ( if this idea is appreciated and added to the game there still have to write what s on the paper inside the cookies -so if you have any ideas...)

Long live png ! Wink

Cant wait that you finish the mimic, its one of my favorite monster

And btw, im french too :)

Edit: i have updated the list.

I'll just reminder about my graphical mod at http://www.freewebs.com/z137/mod2.zip Very Happy

(following it seems not to work, copy it into address bar). I think there are no bugs left.

Very nice mode Z :D

Other pictures for ivan:
- spawn of cthulhu ( reference to H.P Lovecraft ), slow powerful and intelligent humanoid creature.

- adult alien

- alien dog

- queen alien

Though i know aliens wont be of the taste of most of you, i was thinking that a special unique level with them and the queen as a boss would be very fun.
The queen would be immobile , powerful and sometimes would lay an egg.
Aliens would be acid resistant and have acid blood like dark frogs.

If anyone feels like coding this, i could make the other graphics ( special grounds and walls to the level, eggs, facehuggers, alien goblin... ( why not?)).I'm sure this could be a neat side-branch level.

I was thinking of such alien level too ;)
But I was thinking of a very huge queen, 3*3 maybe (if possible), but immobile and make small aliens spawning...
What about making more than a level, but a "dungeon"? With lot of new graphics, the entreance symbolized by a crashed vessel, metal walls and such things ;)
Not very in the spirit of the game, but why not? ;)

Have to finish my mimic first, and to work a bit for my school (last year :p), but I'm interrested in such things Smile

Ahh, really cool! I was thinking no one would be interested Very Happy

I was more seeing the level ( or if it is a dungeon, 2 or 3 levels should be the max since i more see this like a little event-joke ) like the cave in alien 1. But why not, maybe a mix of both is possible.

If it's made it'll need some unique items associated with it: namely, the weapons the chick gets in AvP, the ones the Predator makes out of the dead alien. Which she then procedes to never use.

hehehe good idea.
The tail of the dead queen could make a good spear Smile

I ll try to find a few item ideas...

Heh, such a level would answer where all the game's anachronisms come from.

I did a few graphics when I was adding my own carnivorous plant themed dungeon fork.

So here's a shambling carnivorous plant (uprooted itself and walks around) and a carnivorous lily pad:

Why don't you make a different themed dungeon fork? Carnivorous plants already have a mother, and a level in UT.

He meant that the aliens brought the futuristic stuff like kevlar with them, I think.

Atomic · Posted: Tue Apr 26, 2005 7:54 pm Post subject:

Nah, Ivan did that, with his kevlar gas mask.

Squashmonster, you never finished this level ? Your new graphics of carnivor plants are not in the Char.pcx file of Ivan...
