I am making a site and want to put every D1 and Hellfire monster on it in both animation and plugins. I want to see if i can get permission to put you guys's stuff on it. If you don't want me to that's fine. I'd just put a link to your page.

I converted only the D1 succubi, but you are certainly welcome to host them.

Oops forgot I made one... Well if you want to use it, there's no need to ask for my permission, it's freeware as far as I'm concerned.

I did? Oh god, the senior moments are coming more often.

One of my colleagues has a coffee cup that reads "40 isn't old...if you're a tree" Last time I checked, the only wood on me was between the ears.

Baldrick, what animations do you need? Most of them are already converted except for the Flesh Thing(and a few others).

How did you do the goat lord? That monster is screwed up in the mpqs and not complete at all. How did you finish him, did you redraw?

Hey Baldrick, I mentioned a long time ago that anything that i convert/converted is available to everyone to use as they see fit, i think most people wouldn't object as long as you credit the person that made it. I will however say, that some of the earlier conversions that i have done were remade as i learned more about how it all works, i don't think Jeff managed to get the replacements uploaded. So i'll send you some links of the newer versions (Like the original Leoric, the offsets weren't too good in the original, and i think the corpse turned blue when it changed from death to dead, i corrected it later on but i think the old version is still up on the keep!)

Incandescent One,

Is there any chance that I could get ahold of a Leoric/Radamant replacement minus him dropping the Undead Crown?

Or, perhaps a quick "Here's how to work that out w/ the d-load I already provided the Keep with."


ALSO...

Does anyone out there have any of Leoric's wav files from D1? I used to have his "The warmth of life has entered my tomb" wav, but forgot to keep a copy back during a hard-drive upgrade :-(

Hey Har'lea'quinn, "Here's how to work that out w/ the d-load I already provided the Keep with."..... To stop Leoric dropping the Undead Crown you can simply delete the treasureclassex.txt, as easy as that
As for the Leoric wav files, they were all included with the plug-in, if you want just the "warmth of life" i can mail it, or i've got a zip file here: http://incandescence.150m.com/Leoric/Leoric.html with just the anim files and wavs (775k)

@Apoc :

I haven't fully tested my goatlord till i get the hook on such problem.
My "workaround" was to use an overlay in place of the death anim and make the corpse look like a tiny drop of ashes and bones. (that fits my mod need well where Goat Lord are Incubus, the male counterpart of succubus)

i've tried to redrawn the whole think, but it's tedious, if you really want the goatlord complete , i could get back on this work.

currently i've finished extracting 35 monsters and 20 spells animations from BGII, PT and IWD.
All of them look neat and interresting. But this is a lot of work, if you want, i'll post some screenies of these critters and anim converters would told me :
- what is done
- what seems useless
- what they're interested into converting.

I haven't play too much at these games, so the name of th emonsters are almost irrelevant for me.

I hope this could be interessting.

@baldrick : about your site, i've been contacted by Phrozenheart to do a "d2 anim center site", see with him what we could share and why not , i could help you with this one.

Greetings to every 1.
Bye

PS: on vacations till the 16th april, so ...
every mail/post would be hardly answered.

PS :

some screenshots :

you could grab the spider,the ant worm and some missiles and overlays here :

Enjoy !

Incandescent One,

I looked at my plug-in for your Leoric anim that I got from the Keep. It has the wav's w/ it, but they are for attacks, deaths, get-hits, and spells.

I'd really like a copy of your "warmth of life" wav if you wouldn't mind e-mailing it to me. :-D

Also, was Radament the only line(and columns) in monstats that you modified for Leoric? I want to use Leoric to replace Radament, but I have heavily altered my monstats text. ;-)

Thank you for your response and help w/ this.

Hey Har'lea'quinn, The wav file should be in the plugin with the rest of the files, it's supposed to be in data\local\sfx\act2\monster\radamenttaunt1.wav, i've just e-mailed it to you anyhows
Oh and yes, the only alterations within monstats.txt are in Radaments row alone, so you can just copy and paste to your own monstats.txt to get the changes.

Incandescent One,

I haven't received the wav in my e-mail yet(not showing yet anyway) but thank you very much for sending :-) I've looked for that wav for quite some time now.

About the taunt wav w/ the plug-in...

I had d-loaded the Leoric plug-in when I first saw it and it only included the wav's I listed in my previous post to you. Perhaps an older version?

Anyway, thank you for your help w/ this, and TY for making the Leoric animation/conversion :-)
