I've noticed that I could use quite a lot of older units like the GIL-E sniper bot which was OP back in beta-gamma. I just don't know where I can find these old units to put them back in a mod. Anyone know where I can find them?
Most of them are still in the game files. Old laser defense towers and bot factories are not, but I can hook you up with them if you want. Just send me a PM.
Did you still need this or did @stuart98 hook you up? If you do, let me know what files you need, and from what build (or generally, like "alpha", "beta").
thats some really cool s#@! i didnt know you could do that and i hope we can put the old units back in the game using so sort of mod.
We all ask you for these. I remember doing so for TeamComBuilder. Why don't you just take all retired models, and zip them and put them in a dropbox or something?
Actually yeah if you can PM me with the old gil-E i'd greatly appreciate it Sorry, i was busy the past few days.
I don't have blender installed on this computer, so I may not have the right ones - let me know if any of these are not the old models: http://pa.raevn.com/old_units/attack_sub_54357.zip http://pa.raevn.com/old_units/beast_50355.zip http://pa.raevn.com/old_units/bot_artillery_54357.zip http://pa.raevn.com/old_units/fusion_plant_54357.zip (? can't remember what this is) http://pa.raevn.com/old_units/megabot_54357.zip http://pa.raevn.com/old_units/orbital_factory_adv_50355.zip http://pa.raevn.com/old_units/raptor_54357.zip http://pa.raevn.com/old_units/spider_54357.zip http://pa.raevn.com/old_units/tank_heavy_artillery_54357.zip http://pa.raevn.com/old_units/unit_cannon.zip
The attack sub, tank_heavy_artillery, bot_artillery, and unit_cannon are all still in the files. What are not in the files are T1 PGens from the very first Alpha build, pre-62857 laser turrets, pre-58197 bot factories, and a few old orbital launcher and nuke launcher models from late alpha and very early alpha, respectively, that I'm not sure anyone wants anyway...
I see there's no bones on the Megabot. Does that mean I would have to rig it myself? There is also nothing in the .json about movement or weapons.
There was bot_artillery and bot_artillery_adv - can you confirm that the one I uploaded was the same one as current and not the one they removed (I can't check). http://pa.raevn.com/old_units/energy_plant_49073.zip Note: it has the old-style png textures I forgot about the bot factories because I previously supplied them KKJ. I'll update this post later with the bot factories & laser turrets. More bark than byte?
Both bot_artillery and bot_artillery_adv are in the game files. For the old energy plant you can simply use my "Alpha Energy Plant" mod on PAMM, which already has the png textures converted to .papa.
