			<description><![CDATA[<p>Thanks for your proposal <img src="http://forum.maratis3d.com/img/smilies/wink.png" width="15" height="15" alt="wink" /><br />I will stick with 3 turrets for a start (one archer-type, one barrack that spawn units, and one mage-type)<br />I know exactly what i will do for the archer type but for the others i have no idea yet, if you have good vibes about it, give a shot <img src="http://forum.maratis3d.com/img/smilies/wink.png" width="15" height="15" alt="wink" /><br />(there&#039;s no hurry, as i&#039;m still working on the others things in the script for now)</p><p>To give you an idea, as you will play the bad guys, the look needs to be aggressive, for example, some buildings of warcraft 2 when playing orcs side (sorry, don&#039;t have more recent examples lol) plus, decoratives skulls, bones, chains are more than welcome if you have that in stock</p><p>and yes i tried quickly some time ago the normal map scrolling, it&#039;s working quite nice, but i think i&#039;ll stick with diffuse maps only for this project (at least for now) .. and don&#039;t pay attention to the tree-head &quot;dog&quot;, i was planning to replace that =p</p><p>ps. I will post the fog a bit later</p>]]></description>

We need layer groups, and the ability to export a scene with each individual object being exported as its own mesh.</p><p>3 Scrolling planes <img src="http://forum.maratis3d.com/img/smilies/wink.png" width="15" height="15" alt="wink" /> very clever. Note: did you ever try to scroll a normal-map I seen an example of that being done for water the effect looked really good. There is also something called Flow Mapping same principle but allows the water to change direction.</p><p>You can upload your fog example if you would like, I will take a look others might be interested also.</p><p>If you need any asset help, models, terrains, characters, architecture, ... whatever you need let me know. Would be nice to do something for someone that is going to use it. Right now I have my eye on a Terrain and A Different Fence. </p><p>Is that a Three Headed Demon Dog I see lol.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Here&#039;s a project i started working on the past week, it&#039;s going quite good <img src="http://forum.maratis3d.com/img/smilies/wink.png" width="15" height="15" alt="wink" /></p><p>Some notes :<br />- 6 types of ennemies with 1 special skill each (example : Knights can trigger a defense boost, Dogs can trigger a speed boost, Priest can heal himself)<br />- All mobs have correct walk/hurt/die/skill animations<br />- Sounds are almost ok (4 per mobs, plus menu, effects) still missing some.<br />- the tower targetting system is OK ! </p><p>I&#039;m starting the wave/spawn system right now.<br />And script-wise, i need to access the self.hp value of mobs at any given times, but i dont know how, if anyone have a clue, that would greatly help</p><p>Here&#039;s a serie of screenshots (oldest to newest)<br />Note that graphics gonna change drastically cause i&#039;m not happy at all with the current scenes</p><p><span class="postimg"><img src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19970067/Mprojects/TowerDef/Mturret26.png" alt="PunBB bbcode test" /></span></p><p><span class="postimg"><img src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19970067/Mprojects/TowerDef/Mturret35.png" alt="PunBB bbcode test" /></span></p><p><span class="postimg"><img src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19970067/Mprojects/TowerDef/Mturret44.png" alt="PunBB bbcode test" /></span></p><p><span class="postimg"><img src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19970067/Mprojects/TowerDef/Mturret53.png" alt="PunBB bbcode test" /></span></p><p><span class="postimg"><img src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19970067/Mprojects/TowerDef/Mturret62.png" alt="PunBB bbcode test" /></span></p>]]></description>
