Granger vs. adv granger model

Started by Meisseli, April 21, 2011, 11:56:31 AM

Right now the two models, granger and adv granger look exactly the same, since the size of the advanced version was reduced to be the same as normal granger's. It seems a little weird though, evolving to an advanced form with nothing changing visually.

Could the advanced granger have some visual distinction, like longer tusks for example? Or is this made on purpose so the two cannot be distinguished? Having some distinction, like longer tusks for example would be neat in my opinion, it makes you have the feeling that it has evolved to a stronger form. It wouldn't have to be anything very clearly distinguishable, just something minor that makes the advanced form a bit fiercer looking.

Touche.

I would support idea. One distinctive thing is that adv. granger can wallwalk, another place to start changes...

adv granger = granger with the same skin, larger
adv basilisk = basilisk with a different skin, larger
adv marauder = marauder with a different skin, larger
adv dragoon = dragoon with a different skin, larger

so adv grangers just needs a different skin to fit in the advanced family

How about jumping higher as adv. granger?

  • Construction Kit

         
    • removed Advanced Construction Kit (regular kit now builds everything that's available)

Wiki is currently all for 1.1.
It'll be a ton of effort updating everything so may as well wait until the changes are all finalised.
Any maps not in the MG repo?  Email me or come to irc.freenode.net/#mg.

I suppose it makes sense for the wiki to be based on an actual release and not a beta though.

It makes more sense to me to have both the 1.1 information and the GPP changes on each page with 'as of [date of edit]' to make it clear the information may soon be outdated. It doesn't seem such a ton of effort to me and I would be happy to make the changes if there's support for it.

@Tremulant: That looks hot. Literally. If you could just fix the eye textures with alpha (I don't know how, but I could try) I'd love to have these smoldering grangers for my own!

Meisseli

Oh yes, that granger looks like he's going to eat me in any second. Scary.

Fix with alpha how? i'll have a poke around and upload some bits later if you like.

but a small twisty barrel will have small pew pew's, and small pew pew's can hurt mr.tyrant.

What I would like to see is some black burnt skin to make it more scary. All adv. grangers having burnt skin could be explained as it being part of their training. All grangers aspiring to be adv. grangers have to go for a quest to find a flamethrower to mutilate themselves with.

lol

So this could actually a gameplay change: granger needs flamer to advance  ;D

But seriously, I think this texture change would be nice for the adv.granger (except the eyes)

Just give it a black armor skin like the adv.dragoon.

Tremulant, that poor granger is obviously old and covered in some sort of sores. It's "advanced" in age only. :(

kozak6

Those aren't old age sores.

Let's just say someone didn't use protection during spring break.  And I don't mean a :battlesuit:.
