As the title says. Here's a description of what's new:
US-Inf: Fixed some clipping issues on face, added rankslides to light, heavy and sniper bodies. MGer now also has bazooka rockets in pack and all classes have modelled webbing. Still using my edit of Vandoori's skin. New MG shell texture

US-Para: Fixed faces, added rankslides and rockets to MGer. Still using Devin's (i think :confused: ) 101st skins. New MG shell texture

Brit-Inf: Only v1, based off combination of my TSV and edited DoD model. Using Vandoori's commando skins, new headshots, helmet and pack. Face are also new.

Axis-Inf: This is v2 even though v1 never finished. Using Vandoori's Autumn SS uniform (3.1 styled) with similar features to the US-Inf. New faces with headshots, brilliant helmet. All it needs is some ranks on uniform.

Axis-Para: Will be similar to Axis but with FJ uniform. MAY NOT MAKE THE RELEASE. Still looking for a good skin.

This thread isn't bs! I will post pics later today or tomorrow morning depending on how long it takes to add the finishing touches. AND NO BUGGING ME IF I DON'T RELEASE BY SUNDAY!! At the latest I will have them monday night for you guys ;)
Cheers,
mumblyjoe

Sweet. The first version of your pack was pretty badass...although it's quality was also its detriment, in my opinion, it was almost too detailed for DoD. Either way, great work. I can only imagine how this one will be.

^ too detailed, so high poly my comp would explode D:

Mumbly they should use your player models for the nexted dod update.

PICSSSSSS!! :p

I dont think I could wait tht long:(

Sweeeet, cant wait!!!

I had a a feeling.

We need pictures to pass the days to release !

Looking forward to this one.... if it ever gets released.

Okay here's previews! Ohh and I'm sure it won't blow your PC apart (even though mine for TSV almost did to some team members!). No para pics because of the Sturmbot Para bug. And hopefully this will pass the DAY (only days if I can't find a host :p)
Enjoi!

Also note I've added a random pic of the "invisible man", an error cause by a screw up in the qc (wrong face order!). As said above, the release is aimed at tomorrow night for Allies (as they are finished, bugs are gone), Axis hopefully Monday or Tuesday.

:D

Those Axis Face's look squased hehe but good work!

LOL! SimonS, go the hardcore invisible man!
Release for allies 2moro, they are uploading now.
Axis day afta.

No offense man, but the face gives me nightmares. The mouths are pretty distorted especially.

The eyes are pretty cool, reminds me of brig's work.

i dont like the axis helmets and the way the hair of the axis looks now

Im certain ur v1 allies looked better then those ones mate, could be wrong tho.

Are they supposed to have extremely large heads?

Heads haven't been touched since v1 and they aren't bigger than the default DoD ones, they are about the same. German hair: I've only change 2 heads, one is now shaved (sniper) and the MGer has a bowl cut (like you can see in that pictured). As for lips, people in the past have complained about them pouting. Actually the lips are almost flat and it is just the texture their, which I have tried changing the meshing but causes to many problems.

REALLY NOW PEOPLE!?!??!
How many beautiful people were in the war besides my grandma?

i like the whole dead face thing with the blood and stuff it looks cool...and the brits i like too, i think they look better then the defaults.

ofcurse they look better than the defaults!

Looking good. From those pics the chins on the axis models appear a little jutty. But "It don't mean butt if it aint got that jut."

That face is friggin freaky. The shot in faces....man...haha...i like the textures on their uniforms though.

They look good but they dont seem proportioned right, they give the ilusion that the heads are to big.

Neway allies are released. And I don't know what your talking about the heads being too big! They are the same and in some cases SMALLER than the defaults! The helmets though are bigger as hair is default on the face (instead as a submodel). The shading also makes the faces look different as there is more detail. Axis inf possibly 2nite, FJ l8r this week.

Are you sure? The heads look friggin' humongous to me. At least in those pics they do.

It's just the perspective

they look fine ingame

As SimonS says, PERSPECTIVE! I'm not lying, you can load the model with Milkshape and compare it with defaults, it's the same size!
Axis SS Inf are done, but I'm going to release it with another skin as well as ranks on the uniform.

Damn I really want those axis.

The thing that will probably take the longest with the axis is uploading on my 56k!

Damn wouldin't be done by now if it was uploading?

Uploading them this weekend...
Including an update for allies

Okay heres some release pics for the next release. Most noticable changes are the lips and the sleevs on the Rangers. The lips on German, though I thought I had fixed the lips may appear to be still bugger on these pics. I will look into this, it's probably because I forgot to recompile them for these pics. Sorry there are no Para pics as bots no longer work for them (so I only have old ingames)

Pictures taken using Fraps! Instead of bloody print screening into Photoshop!

As for release date, I was hoping for this weekend but it turns out my work commitments won't allow me to. I would expect a midweek release though. Enjoi the pics ;)

Wow those are beautiful mumbly! Great Job...One thing though, I think the helmets are too green and if you really want to make it look panzer lehr, I suggest following the color of the steel helmet I provided in the zip. (That is if you want to) :)

For the love of god faces do not look that ****ed up:p

But the lips are better, but that face, looks like a damn pumpkin:D

firmalo i still want u to release ur version...i dont like the feel of mumblys...their nice dont get me wrong...i just want to keep semi-default models, but upped a lil bit

please release yours....i may give cookies

The only problems are the faces, other wise id hit them;)

Koolies Firmalo. I was more worried about the stretched looking cloth helmet and maybe the shirt (as I edited to colar skin to fit my model)

Ohh yeah at flame: you can't fix the faces, thats the way they are. It's
1. Perspective (ei my pics are taken using spectator mode so the angle at which they are taken may make the sixe look different)
2. Higher poly. A lot of detail, only shown by the skin on the defaults is actually modelled on my faces ie the eyes
3. also because people are used to different looking faces

Good job mumbly:)

Nice work mumblyjoe but the normale axis soldier had not a eagl on hes sleeve, only the SS had
http://www.ausmodders.com/albums/al...ergrenadier.jpg
but els nice work

very nice. *need*

By faces I mean they look squished, mushed together by a huge clamp, they need to strech out a bit like "normal" faces do, christ there like bulldogs:p

*EDIT* your host for the other models is down:(

Thanks Junior for pointing that out, I did think they looked odd ;)
And as for links down, they shouldn't be as Editor 321 has told me that.

The faces do seem a wee bit big, but its no big deal and besides, the detailed eyes, lips and the headshot animations makes up for all that..If I was still playing DoD, I'd prefer that ugly ole fat head :p to the default one anytime :)

BUMPAGE detected.

you should also extend the heads out so their necks show they seem to shrugged in and like they dont have necks besides that they look awsome good work :D :D :D

What happened:(

'twould appear mumbly dissapeared.........again

Hes gone again:(

Sorry guys, been busy with work and school and that always comes first. I've been working on them and the FJ set will finished soon. Release will be in next 2 weeks, l8r than I expected. I also have played around with the faces and may have fixed the necks up a bit as well to make them look less squashed.

Okay guys, I'm holidays and I spent all of today tweaking my models and finishing the FJ. All sets are complete but before this release I'm doing an absolute bug and realism check. I also don't have access to an ADSL connection at home so until I get to one they can't be uploaded (as my 56k takes a full 24 hours to upload them all). Otherwise I may have preview pics up on Sunday. Koolies.

Any chance we can get your TSV Slouch Hat WWI Aussies in DoD?:D God, I'd kill for a set of Aussie Light Horsemen models.

Slouch Hat Aussies? First I've heard of them...
Nah TSV only have standard British at the mo. Also slouches were mostly ceremonial, they were rarely worn in combat and almost neva in the Western Front.
Neway DoD is 98% update and when it's done in about 30 min I will do the final test before zipping them up and emailing them to the host.

At last, the final release pics ;). Uploading 2moro for Saturday release.

Okay now some people wanted custom arm/helmet patches right? Well I can do them but they won't make this release sorry ;)

Couple of bugs in those screens you probably already know of. The Falli headshot model is rather warped. Also, on the SS models, the shoulderboards come over the suspenders, and they're red, which I beleive is Artillery.

*edit*
I hope you know on the Heer M35 helmet, the shield is Red, White, and Blue where it should be Black, White, and Red:p

Thank you for your help, I wasn't quiet sure about it for the Heer badgethanx.

Now for your other pointers:
- The fj headshot model is the same as the axis one, i just post a one from a really bad angle. If you mean how it implodes once again it's the angle.
- Yes the shoulder boards do come over the suspenders but whats wrong with that
- The SS do have red lines around the shoulder board, every set I've seen soo far have had it so I'm goin wit it.

Check your PM's Mumblyjoe :D I have some questions to ask you... :D

Got them Panzer...

Now about the release: Editor321 is away and doesnt get back till later this week. They have been put onto a temporary FTP for now and soon to be sent to him. Once they are up they will be up!

Also there will be a v4 for these models but they will probably be released just after HL2 comes out (according to EB games, in 2 months). They will be extremly different to this current release and will be of HL2 standard. Already started the faces for them. I will make a new WiP thread when I complete more.

*Cough*Winter*Cough*
*Cough*Italy*Cough*
*Cough*Normandy*Cough*
*Cough*Berets*Cough*
I better go, I've got a really bad throat ;)

I can host them on dodec.

The "red lines" arround their shoulderboards are really pink, and denote Panzer troops (Tankers)

Actually red is artillary in the SS, bleh. Infantry has white piping arround shoulderboards. Further on the cap for the Unteroffizier on the Axis-inf SS, he should have a totekopf (skull and crossbones SS used) in place of the circle.

so wait....did I miss the release or has it happened yet. I'm really confused...

Look in the releases section.

Trust Handy to get all Technical!

*bump*
Nothing new about release. But as a bit of news, soon I will have my own Dev Journal on my mods site where all my future projects will be found. Link coming soon.

For my release thread for those who haven't visited
I thought this would be clear by now but I can't send them to any host because of 56k connection. It would take approximately 2 days to send all the models but then there is also the hi risk of getting timed out or disconnected. I want to release but can't and like my first release this thread has turned into a spam fest. I'm STILL waiting for a friend to put onto his FTP and allow the hosts to grab it off there. Until then I'm sorry it's beyond my control.
Also everyone take note of my sig, I now have my own Dev Journal which everyone can feel free to visit as long as they obey the rules.

I have the first three, Joe, but when I replied to Nuclear to tell him to put the others on it wouldn't send :(

Serious? Tell what packs you have been sent via pm and I can tell you the others.

Nice but not very historically accurate ... :kitty:

Besides the SS having artillery ranks slides (which is correct for artillery units :p) I don't see why they aren't historically inaccurate. Still waiting for hosts...

Almost there....:carrot:

mh really long long time a go there was a thread started and everybody were waiting for an release but then there was a bad guy and he dind't host the files and i takes months to send them again but finally it will have an happy end or?

anybody have one idea when this will be released?

they are done, just trying to get them out to hosts!! Like every other sets of models, they have gone bad because everyone has been becoming grumpy over theses, especially me!! I have my own personal host now so I WILL ATTEMPT to upload this weekend. At last this can end:angry:

*Grabs beating stick*

leave the poor man alone :p

Joe calm down. There done, we get that now. Hell I still dont know why if you have a host that you dont get them too DODEC first:confused:

Okay, I have my own PERSONAL host which i will use to upload models to and then DODEC and Editor321 can download them so they can be release. Currently DODEC have 3 of them I got through email, so I will upload the next three. I also have a new PC which is more stable and seems to stay connected to the net better so it is possible to do it.

Good news

They'll be up soon.. don't worry

Okay good news:
Will be releasing this week

Bad News:
Only have the sets are up and I have discovered a major bug in the Brits

So I have decided to release the para models while I get the other sets up (they are slowly but steadily uploading ;) ). So have a look in the release forums sometime later this week.

Now about my v4 sets or DoD: S sets, all further information will be posted in my Dev journal so please feel free to visit and take a look. (Note it says they are delayed but I have had a breakthrough with some stuff and may get out another DoD set shortly after the HL2 release)

You're working on DoD : S models? Cool....:D

Thought I might just lighten up the mood till release later this week:

I think RO or Battlefield 1942 when I see that face.

Actually that face is from The Somme Valley, one of my other projects. Heh, just had a screwed up mesh that made it look like it was confused so i decided to use it in that pic.

I like it, just feels right, fatten up german head:sheep:

There not out yet and mumbly said they would come out this week.

Sorry not my fault. Links have been given to Cpt Spiers and Editor321. Just waiting for them to give me their links. I could give you guys links to my private FTP but it would kill the bandwidth. Sorry.

Good news though, I have decided to work on v4, more news can be found via my dev journal.

Joe brits version 3 is on eds site, but you have to know where to look to find it.

all links are functional and operational, stand by for release very soon

Dunno where spiers is gone. Ohh well I release just with Editor's links, paras not up yet though.
