Mod: Caelis Immolatum ON HOLD

[Endoperez]

Sorry about that.

Your plan is pretty much complete, and I don't have anything to add to that. Mechanics-wise, the nation is interesting and you might actually use the lightning-resistant troops for their resistance. I'd have to see more details before I can give any more advice, but it seems like an interesting and viable mod. Nothing too complicated, doable graphics (grab the LA caelum sprites from the sprite extraction thread if you need them), and all in all a project that will probably get finished.

Oh, can anyone give me a sprite of the Spring Hawk? I'm going to need to palette-shift it into a Firebird... (probably summoned somehow with the Phoenix...)

Well the end result of this is that your graphics are going to be easy/easier to do.

If you want the springhawk sprite just add it to your recruitment screen with #addrecunit and then follow the sprite extraction stuff.

Attached are sprites of Great Hawk, Spring Hawk and a rudimentary, 10-minute Firebird done in Gimp. It's surprisingly flashy. All have white background (instead of black) and near-black shadows (instead of magenta).

Nice, thanks, Endo. This is what I think of when I think of 'community mod'; a mod that the community works together to make.

If there's a fairly tricky of fancy looking graphic you need done, I can do it. I'm not the best artist here but I'm beyond the basics now :]

Heh. If I just sit down and hammer this out, I may have a playable version of it later today. Have to go to school for most of the next 8 hours, though.
