So it's the NPC-RC reenvisioned? Also I tried running this and all my movies play upside down when they didn't before.

Is this project still on going? Or no?

I had the same question some time ago... after that i checked the first post by Ice Cold an saw this:
"As all of us on the team are busy now days. The chance of us getting this patch done is slim. So we need some people that can make model's.

What we looking for ?

(1) Model's that are like the ones we have done

(2) some that can make a min of 3 new model's"

Soo i gues we need new team to complete this Project

Couldn't some models just be retexured instead of making brand new ones?

Make textures for old LEGO models?

That will be funny

Old blocky models had NO textures at all.

Nomad · « **Reply #229 on:** 2009-04-11 23:58:18 »

Eh, I meant different textures for the new models. Some of the npcs are generic enough just to change their pants or shirt textures (if only I knew how

). The old heads look like they can be used (just resized) but if you can't change the textures on them then nevermind. If anyone's curious, I made a list of the models that haven't been done.

Nomad · « **Reply #231 on:** 2009-04-15 13:54:02 »

Since this project seems to be dead (hope it will arise like a "Phoenix" one day though

), does anyone have the tutorial that was posted here?

(

what happend with his textures???)

Waiting for you comments about this two

Nomad · « **Reply #235 on:** 2009-04-19 15:10:12 »

Not bad, I tried doing the same thing but couldn't get the shadowing to look like that. Wasn't sure what I was doing wrong. As for the guy in the suit, make sure the RSD file for the head is referencing the textures. I don't know if Kimera saves those properly.

drfeelgud88 · « **Reply #236 on:** 2009-04-20 01:59:02 »

brokencrowe... how did u get it to work on vista? i cant... idk how

BrokenCrowe (Mendelevium) · « **Reply #237 on:** 2009-04-20 04:48:12 »

I suck at modeling (i can't figure out 3ds max.. waste of my money right there haha..)

But with the tutorial i might just start modeling! if so expect lots of models cause i'd REALLY love to see this patch

NameSpoofer · « **Reply #240 on:** 2009-04-21 20:02:38 »

a while back ago i did young hojo, godo and a man model, i will post some screens later

@squallff8: try open the rsd file ( using notepad ) that goes with the head of the model and check whether it is associated with textures or not, should be something like NTEX=3
TEX[0]=xxxx.tim
TEX[1]=xxxx.tim
TEX[2]=xxxx.tim

squallff8 · « **Reply #241 on:** 2009-05-02 12:22:06 »

THANX NameSpoofer!!!

I did like you sain.and here it is:

It's not perfect...i still have troubles with colors...

I'll continue rebuilding of other models!And btw,if somebody rebuilding them too share them here!
Together we will rebuid all models!!!!

SquallFF8 i'd love to help but i've never done 3d modeling. So no idea how good they will be, Or how long it wil ltake, But i'll get them done!

Actually, i don't heve ANY experience in modeling too

But i want to see this patch completed!!!Tjis is my GOAL

These model I made with tutorial by Borde:"How_to_build_models_for_FF7PC"
It's pretty simple!Just takes some time to understand.

BTW,can somebody explain me how use lighting??? Models that was rebuilded by original authors have a different shadows than mine...I have a troubles with this...

Hellbringer616 · « **Reply #246 on:** 2009-05-04 05:05:41 »

Can someone help me out? I keep getting errors when i open any hrc file..

And if i get them open, they look like this..

Also, still can't find the field .lgp..

as for shadowing, not sure as to how it works, But could you set it to a value of atleast 1? Aali is making a custom graphics driver and if lighting/shadowing is at 0 it messes with his driver (which is an amazing thing, you should check it out if you haven't already)

These errors mean that animation files can not be found..If you'll get these error ONCE,You must restart Kimera

because next model that you'll load will be broken(as we see on the screenshot that you made).Kimera is not perfect program

Ohhh, alright thanks, I get those errors A LOT. Something up with my version? it's 0.94b

squallff8 · « **Reply #249 on:** 2009-05-05 00:34:06 »

I have the same version.
Some models(with many animations) makes these errors.And there is no way to avade them if you load next model.Only restart of Kimera will help

BTW,here some screens of Godo rebuilding:

As you can see,the color in original model is darker then in new one.
Can some body explain the eays way to copy colors/make the same colors
