Title: Character Appearances
Post by: Teloch on May 07, 2002, 12:42:39 pm

I noticed in some of the screen shots that some character races models are finished.  When I made a dermorian in game he looked like a dwarf.  Is this just because the model for dermorian\'s is unfinished and that dwarves are used as the default.  Also skills don\'t show up on the skill page.  I assume that is just because that section isn\'t finished yet.

yep dwarf is the default character. so if U choose a race that izn\'t finished yet U are a dwarf.

The real reason for that is that there are only 3 player models in the engine so far (all be it not the final variants) so if you pick a Xacha you will get a dwarf ^^... pick a kran you will get a ..err dwarf, if you see what i mean.

alot of that was due to my little hiatis... but expect at least 2 or 3 of my player models in the next demo... you WILL like em... Hopefully they will make those having poor frame rates have a better time... youd be shocked to know how many polygons that enkiduaki model has... (The hand alone has around 180!!! if i remember, thats over a qaurter of a full quake3 model right there ^^)
