Xiahou Yuan is now updated, just in time for Thanksgiving :)
News updates about the Flames of Wu Mod:
Currently I have been play testing the mod from Chapter 1 up to the currently constructed Chapter 7 to make sure there is proper balance, bug fixes, and proper leveling, tactic flow, and weapon progression that is both challenging and balanced. New portraits, as you might have seen if you are keeping up with this thread, are some of the major additions in addition to the new "Thunder and Lightning" tactics/sprites and lots of new dialogue, story, and loads of new map additions. That's about all there is to it. Next I will try and figure out some interesting for Chapter 8 and will hope for a beta session soon :)
At any rate, hopefully Thanksgiving was kind to you and the Christmas season will be even better!
wow i really hope from now on that this is the new standard for any future mods. great job 8), it's still amazing that we have come this far with the advancements that go into these last few mods
Yeah, but the new standard means that 2012 jin xuan mod is very unlikely. At the very minimum, I'll have to completely redo the map AND produce a whole bunch of new officer faces.
And it's aaaaalll Peng's fault! :Þ
<– Don't blame me, blame himBah, with your talents and Atma-skillz, you'll have the Jin Xuan mod up in no time! Unless… I get to it first :D
If the Jin Xuan mod goes up? I WIN!
If someone else puts up a Jin Xuan mod? I STILL WIN!
Also, you should consider darkening some of Cao Pi's beard highlights.
Elaborate.
On me winning if my Jin Xuan mod goes up? I have successfully propelled a nobody to fame!
On me winning if someone else's Jin Xuan mod go up? Not only have I successfully propelled a nobody to fame, but someone else did all the work!
On Cao Pi's highlights being darkened? Face palettes are black/red[ish]/yellow[ish]/VARIES; the highlights on Cao Pi's beard are yellow[ish], but should be changed to red[ish]…. or possibly gray if it looks better.
Well, the color that the beard highlights are allows me to have a "white" substitute. If I were to make his beard white, it would change it to purple, or blue, or green depending on what the background color is, get it? So leaving it that color is sort of like an all-purpose solution, and the red usually doesn't fit as nicely either in terms of highlights on beards unless I just can't seem to blend it right.
At any rate, Jiang Wei (not Jin Xuan) gets added to the updated roster. Also, I think I'm going to do a Jin Xuan portrait just for posterity :P
In the flesh… errr, digital flesh. Jin Xuan, Conqueror of Worlds!
Input needed on the Lu Bu's new cameo :)
Before:
After, but not sure which one. Who says Lu Bu can't have a beard?:
Lu Bu isn't normally shown with a beard.
As for Cao Pi's beard highlights, I meant the off-red that all palettes have. I'd show you what I mean, but you insist on putting in fake anti-aliasing. :(

Err, whether he is typically displayed with one or not isn't quite the point. I mean, who says he can't grow a little stache?
Also, here is my photoshopped original
Quote:Lu Bu with or without a beard is pretty badass.So………… which one? I'm leaning most towards the one on the far right :cactuar:
Aha!
The first row is the off-color version; the second is the actual color.
The first pic in each row is your version; the other four are my variants.
And you should never ever ever use jpg for this sort of thing. It's like asking Jia Xu to try and Duel Lu Bu. :tear:
Finally, Lu Bu looks best with no facial hair, as it's not part of his public perception; how is he supposed to terrify people if they only see a moustache and not him?
jpeg? It's in .bmp format >_>
Yeah, I see what you mean with the gray beard and while I do agree it does look better, what if I want to change his robe color to purple or blue? Then it changes the beard color to purple or blue, not that there is anything wrong with those people out there who have purple beards :unibrow:. I do think though, that that red beard just looks like it got dipped in flames, or dinner, or a dinner of flames.
I was thinking of just making the whole beard black and thus eliminating the issue of beard coloring altogether :P
Quote:Finally, Lu Bu looks best with no facial hair, as it's not part of his public perception; how is he supposed to terrify people if they only see a moustache and not him?Well, it was just an experiment. I just started doodling and out came the old mario wanna-be.
