Just took a quick run through the Planescape Monster animation files and wrote down the more noticable/useable ones. Following is a list, and please note: Its been a while since Ive played and cant remember all the names great, so ive used a bit of creativity in naming. Also, since there are so many in this untapped source of Planescape, I will be focusing in here instead of BG2 and IWD. Now, on with the list:Cornugon (different anims than BG2) Dakkon the Githzeri Dark Warrior Abishai (all 3 flavors) Skeletal Armor Lesser Shadow Bone Shadow Mega Shadow The Transcendant One Spikeling Vargoyle Vhalior Armor Animated Wizard Banshee/Zombie Spike Beast Cursed Guard Grehleth Plated Guardian Grim Leaper Ghast/Ghost Crimson Harbinger Demonic Horse Ignus the Enflamed Hag Larvae Lemur Grey Basilisk WereRat Master WereRat Bone Magus Evil Treant Evil Brute Glabrezu (Bigger than BG2 Version) Hulking Beast Scavenger Bird Nupperino Fallen Angel Trias Thats about it, barring character type animations.

Wow, some of these monsters I can picture how they look at they look cool...now, I don't and have never heard ofthis planetscape game so, when was it released, is it still around, how much would it normally cost, etc? I want it.  ------------------ God gave me a brain to use but I miserably failed to use it to my advantage

Look here: http://www.planescape-torment.comIt was released between BG1 and tales of the sword coast I think (the BG1 expansion). I'm sure you can still find it if you look around a little. ------------------ Alkalund

Im going to hazard a guess and say it came out in 99. Since i havent looked, I honestly cant say where to find it in stores. A quick check of Interplay's site tells me that its $15 to order online, which isnt that bad. The game itself is great, one of those things you have to experience for yourself.------------------ "I have a plan so clever you could stick a tail on it and call it a weasel!"

Ok, can you send me some of these BAM files please? In .zips please. I want the following:Vargoyle Bone Magus Cornugon It seems that if my junkmail folder gets over 2MB, it doesn't disable my account. If my inbox gets over 2MB, my e-mail account gets disabled...so, I have you in my junk mail account for now...actually, it's a long story. So anyways send them if you can, my junkmail folder can handle all the animations. ------------------ God gave me a brain to use but I miserably failed to use it to my advantage

I'll install planescape torment now and pull out and save all the animations. I'll be back with the list of the ones i have saved as animated gifs in an hour or so [edit- i wish i knew where i put things. Better make that several hours or so, its hell finding anything nowadays in this hole i call a house]=)I could really use them for my Blood War mod as well so i suppose the least i can do is get you the graphics you want to convert =) [This message has been edited by PandaMonium (edited 28 January 2002).]

Yea, I was planning to replace the Fetish Shaman with these, and the fetishes themselves with Armored Skeletons, so that it acts like a mummy and will raise them back up and also cast a few nasty spells.------------------ "I have a plan so clever you could stick a tail on it and call it a weasel!"

A quick request for you Apocalypse Demon, could you send me the Pit Fiend GIFs or BAMs, ive had the hardest time looking for them in the BG2 folder and can only find a few. I'll split up that second Cornugon and send it out soon as i get home from school today.------------------ "I have a plan so clever you could stick a tail on it and call it a weasel!"

I have already converted the PitFiend to .dcc. It's just not uploaded because well, it's hard for me. Every monster takes three seperate zips to send because of their sizes and my poor hotmail account. And the pitFiend is MRAV Bam files but he is already done.------------------ God gave me a brain to use but I miserably failed to use it to my advantage

Ok, just a quick request to all of you doing Planescape conversions: please post in this topic what monsters you are converting, so that there is no confusion, and so that I can claim a few monsters for myself also  Apocalypse Demon, do you still want planescape BAMs? Now I can send them to you bro  The "Ghoul Queen Acaste" will be my first planescape conversion. She's the one in CA_aca.bif, so please no one converting this one (unless you already did it, please post here then ) ------------------ Alkalund [This message has been edited by Alkalund (edited 29 January 2002).]

Ok, I'm doing the Bone Magus Lich then. And I also have the Vargoyle but it looks so crappy...and I don't want it. Actually, I'm almost done the Bone Magus, I've converted everything to .gif and am now just piecing them together. Alkalund, are there any other cool monsters in Planescape?------------------ God gave me a brain to use but I miserably failed to use it to my advantage [This message has been edited by Apocalypse Demon (edited 29 January 2002).]

Sure there are lots of them. The Trias, the Trigit Tree Guy, the Shadows (these are great, there are 3 of them, all different ), just to name a few. I can send you one of them as of now (I suggest the third shadow )Is anyone doing the Transcendental One??? That guy is COOL, if no one is doing it perhaps I can make that one to. And probably no one is making the shadows, so I'll do the first shadow (the one in CA_sm1.bif). ------------------ Alkalund

Well, are you doing the transcendent one? If not, can I do him? If you are doing the transcendent one, then you can send me one of the shadows(whichever you want).  ------------------ God gave me a brain to use but I miserably failed to use it to my advantage

I started work with the transcendental One already, the guy doesn't have a death animation, so I am creating one myself . I'll send you the shadow files, should I send them to your e-mail directly?------------------ Alkalund

I was going to do the Transcendant One, but seeing as youve started it and have the recources to make a death animation, its all yours. So far, I've fully converted Armored Skeletons, and the guards I termed Crimson Harbingers. Apocalypse, when you finish the Bone Magus, please send it to me. Also Alkalund, when you finish the Ghoul Queen and Transcendant One, please send me a copy. As for me, the creatures I would like to claim are
:Trigit(Treantish thing) :Ignus :Trias :Ghreleth :Abishai :Spikelings(orangeish with spikes for arms) And:Spike Beast (Furry with black armor and lots o horns) One last question: Anyone know of a paint program thats useable other than Paint Shop Pro that is free? Note #2: Anyone who wants what ive converted, tell me. [This message has been edited by Krazoth (edited 29 January 2002).]
