Maestro's MM6 MOD

Unread postby vladimir-maestro » 12 Dec 2008, 12:09

First of all I wanna thank everyone for liking idea of new graphic stuff for MM7 Maestro MOD. Thanks to everyone who helps me to test it and fix it.

So I've decided to repeat a succes of first MOD but do this in MM6.
MM6 do not have 3D acceleration so if I will succedded in replacing monsters - you will see all of them, I hope. Also I liked atmosphere of MM6 more like other series. MM6 is more longer and more harder game. It has got bigger potencial for MODding and changing graphics.

Now I've got enough experience of creating models and creating good renders with better quality. I had some time and created these MM6 paper dolls to show how they looks in game and show some progress through modeling. Just look on them. They are still beta-versions and can be changed because I did only 12 paper dolls and thats all for now.

Now we've got +2 girl charecters, beauty ones :proud:
All charecters now looks more real and have good real shadows on them. But they are still good blended and you do not see sharp pixels in their colors. All the charecter is unuque and has got it's own face (someone told me about MM7 chars - they looks little bit similar...like they are relatives...and something about incest)., their own textures and own bodytypes!!! I've noticed all the cricitizm and pay attention to it!

Also they all are different races - from nordic to african (I hope that they are correct races).

Thats all for now, thanks for your attension.

1) I'm not planing to start hard work before 2009.
2) I'm thinkig that the last guy has got too vampiric appearance (?) maybe I should to recolor his skin or even change his look?
3) Great plus is the same armor for all of charecters armor.
4) I'm hoping that this graphic pack will be integrated with Motter's MOD ;| because I'm not a codder - just can change graphics and some TXT files :baby:

Add me to the list of people saying "Cool!" :)

Unfortunately, I can't see the paper dolls. For some reason I can't get to that link or even to imageshack to look them up. I'll take everyone else's word for it, though...

Motter's MOD:
There are some posts here but they do not called so simple. I had a discussion with him about modding somewhere here. He try to explain how he created new monster in MM6 from existing Titan. Yeah!!! Created +1 new one!!! Not replacing existing sprites!

He is working under it for a long time...I fell it should be something really incredible ;| :proud:

His look is okay, but the gray skin does make him look undead.

These pictures are great! One suggestion with the African figures--they are hard to see against a dark background. They need a light background on the game screen for contrast, especially the man (I can barely see his face).

I'm thrilled you're doing another mod, Vladimir, especially since MM6 is my favorite game of the series.

Yeah it really sounds and looks nice.
All persons looking really great, actually much better than the models in your mm7 mod. I also like the idea of changing the monsters with new sprites.
MM6 is a great game, so I can't wait to play it again with you upcoming mod.

I know that cannot add new weapons in game but I can replace existing ones.

Maybe you are tired of standart set of weapons - sword, dagger, bow, staff, axe, spear? Maybe you will be interested in seeing something instead of them?

I can try and add some throable weapons too but is it interesting to replace daggers into all throable weapons - shurikens, or add some exotic weapons like kukri, katars, knuckles, double swords...

I posted some information on other site to look for help in modelling.

Maybe some people who uses the same program as me will help in creating new graphics. If they will - work could be done faster.
