Very nice to see you back! You were doing some very promising looking stuff last I saw. so I think we would all be thrilled to see where you take it. There have been quite a few new developments in SoM- a big one being the ability to make new animated models courtesy of Mick's x2mdl tool. Also, SomEx has apparently made in to the workable stage. Ben is the resident expert on all those things these days, so I'm sure he can fill you in on all the juicy details.

Good to see you around again ML its been a while! I secretly look at your old development threads sometimes, so i'm looking forward to seeing an update. ‎  Rainbow As you know, you introduced me to modelling and customs in SOM and I didnt give up thanks to you and all the guys here who supported me patiently.

As John said, I work with SOM on a daily basis mostly, so anything you need or want to discuss just let me know. I'll help out wherever I can. Smile

Well that's good, because, I am sooo out of date, like for example I made my original system, that I was making my som title with, into an arcade machine( a fine one no less will post pics if you like) anywho, to make a long story short, all my machines have win 7x64 and I had a hell of a time even setting up SoM I set up a vitural machine with XP pro. I have a question? I know the directX issue in the SOM editor wont be a problem in the vitual machine, but will I have to use the win7 for any MDO or MDL translations? and will my machine running in X64 be an issue with any of the required SOM tools? ‎  ‎ 

and thanks , actually your progress is what makes me what to complete a title, now that my life is more relaxed:)your ‎  models are top notch for such a dated engine as SOM you should take a bow:)

Thanks Joe I appreciate the comment.

Same here, I started working on SOM with XP and when I had a long overdue upgrade to win7, x64 the map editor etc wouldnt show the pieces.
Holy diver's SomEx program fixes this, along with tons of bugs and added features. I can help you set it up, its pretty simple.

Totally understand about having stress and no time for stuff like SOM. Good that you've got some time for yourself now. ‎  Smile

Why not make that horn the boy is wearing the tail of one of those things that is behind him?

Also that's a really long spear. I don't guess a player could move around with something like that.

That horn is a drinking horn, and the monster behind him has a stinger.

The spear wont be available to players. The shorter one will be, though.

Quality stuff! The wall in the one pic looks top notch and the NPCs clothing, subtle facial differences, and natural posture look excellent. You da bomb! 5bomb.

Looking over all the NPCs you've shown us, I didn't see any old geezers. ‎  I think someone with a serious defect would be cool - like an old guy with mashed side face or missing ear. Any plans to make something like that?

Actually theres a character whos already missing an eye - see the orange haired guy (I shouldnt say ginger should I? Biggrin)

Anyway you should encounter some Zyngaroth warriors who have seen their fair share of battle / shields in their faces. Ill remember that input, thanks John!
