Have a browse. The first few are a bit washed out because I tried to artificially lighten them, but I gave up after a while.
No, I'm not releasing, I've had quite enough horribly messy and basically broken mods to my name kthx. The Epic Overmind or Miniturret may yet appear in another release of my mod though.

[Plague]

Release.  

[TinMan]

I love giant room maps/games.
Dunno how trem would be like that though...

OMG lol! best mod yet.   Mini mod.

P.S. Can we see screenie of mini dretch??

[Rabbitt]

Im really liking this mod ben.
The thought of having everything much bigger then humans/aliens is great.
I wish you would add that stuff to your mod cause id run it on my server's.

[rdizzle]

oh god please release!!!!!!!!

[Raytray]

Please release? Think of all the bases that could be built!!!

[benmachine]

Such a positive reaction ^_^ you guys are too kind

But I'd like to at least get some real testing in, work out some proper values and take my time, this time - because I know now with my mod server crashing periodically for no reason I can fathom and full of all kinds of inadequacies and inaccuracies, patience is a virtue.

Raytray - this is kind of the point. While it would be undeniably fun to muck around in old maps with your new ant-sized dretches, there are countless opportunities for glitchery and getting stuck. It's easy to fall out of Karith's bridge, for example. The maps were simply not designed for it.

[ShadowNinjaDudeMan]

JUST RELEASE IT!!!!!!!!!!
Or I shall break you...

Please?

[benmachine]

OKAY BUT WAIT

consider these early dev shots, a lot of work is needed to make it "proper" small (speeds and projectiles and pmoves, oh my)

[Warrior]

Big maps would solve that problem, instead of decreasing model sizes.

(Actual sizes are fine for me though)

my mod server crashing periodically for no reason

What are you running the server on?  If it is a mac, try running a the .dylib and see what it turns out in the error report.

[Paradox]

Tiny mods rock.
Heh, anyone remember jubjub?

It's not a mac and not strictly speaking for no reason - it's just such a bizarre bug I have no idea from where it arises or even how to begin to fix it.

[Raytray]

Heh, put this mod in transit, put on relics too. And all I need to do is find the MD, and the trans-locate relic. Havoc!!!

Yeah, I see what you mean, at first, I could barely recognize your screenshots hehe.

?? It's released. To you? I wan't it!!!

If you decrease the model sizes instead of increasing the maps, the unit sizes will remain the same, and you may have integer snapping or rounding errors along with some forgotten/missed changes.

[E-Mxp]

Mini-dretches running for 5 min to get to the default human base?

Cool!!! Benmachine, your mods are Awesome!!1

[ShadowNinjaDudeMan]

The MD will be like...uber!

5 mins before they reach you you can be piping the ace.

But it would be cool.

Vents= hallways

ZIBIDEYA BDGIA!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah, thatd be fun.

[Overdose]

I wonder, since all of the buildables are smaller, does this decrease lag? Try making your mini base with 1000 bp's and lets see what kind of lag you get...

[TinMan]

They're still the same size to you, it just appears that the map is larger, and larger maps = more lag, so this would be weird...

[Ceaser342]

The map isn't larger your smaller.....  Could you imagine a transit map big enough to make you see 3 inchs tall?  The lag.... *Shudders*
