    Welcome back, Daph.

    As a sound guy, I've released several sound packs with some sounds from the ALIENS movie.

    I'm still working on my ALIENS sound pack, but I will remain occupied with life, work, etc. for the foreseeable future.

    Someday I hope to take the Queen hive and turn it into an Onos.

    It'll be a biped, sort of, but I'll have it all hunched over to fit the Onos shape.


    It'll take a lot of time mind you, and at the moment my production is non existent because I unfortunately got a job, haha.



    Daph, enjoy the pack I linked you.

    not the queen... take the praetorian alien.. the next bigger thing to a drone..and next smaller to a alien queen


    <img src='http://images.ea.com/eagames/official/avp_extinction/aliens/aliens_14.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /> Praetorian
    One step below the Alien Queen, the Praetorians are fast and can inflict devastating amounts of damage on their opponents. A Praetorian can become a Queen.

    Upgrade: Cabability to morph into either a Carrier or a Ravager.

    and btw
    the behemoth alien already looks like a 4 legged praetorian alien..

    Yeah I've played the games and read the novels.

    Y'know iirc there's a quake model of a queen biped, you'd just need about 20 mins in milkshape to probably convert it.



    I need to pull a finger out and buy my license.









    Edit - I tell a lie, the model is for UNREAL TOURNAMENT.

    <a href='http://www.planetquake.com/polycount/downloads/index.asp?model=470' target='_blank'>http://www.planetquake.com/polycount/downl...x.asp?model=470</a>

    Tho to be honest I'd sooner hackjob the current Fade Alien with the Behemoth's head.....

    but a bipedal onos sucks <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo--> the hitbox is already fuxed up enough with the regular one.. a bipedal will not fit into the current hitbox anymore.. you can hit the onos without aiming on his body

    Couldnt you have it just hunched down, like it was crouching? I could see a bipedal animal fitting the onos' hitbox, but the queen/praetorian/whatever's long tail would screw things up a bit.
  • sheena_yanaisheena_yanai Join Date: 2002-12-23 Member: 11426Members
    good point.. you forgot about the tail...what do you want to do with this long tail? it will clip through every wall...
  • wallerwaller Join Date: 2004-04-28 Member: 28281Members
    Make it a very curly tail?
  • sheena_yanaisheena_yanai Join Date: 2002-12-23 Member: 11426Members

    I really look forward to having some free time to play NS again. Unfortunately, work has been way too busy and I'm in the middle of a move. Once I'm back in school, things'll ease up.
  • NecrosisNecrosis The Loquacious Sage Join Date: 2003-08-03 Member: 18828Members, Constellation
    Actually I'd have it almost flush with the back or going directly under the Praetorian, since it'll form a part of any prospective attack anim.

    Yes it'd be really bad hitbox wise, but I'd have it much more hunched over than upright. The reason I chose the QUEEN is that the Queen is a very hunched over alien, and would at least look somewhat like the film if you used it.


    However, a Praetorian would look very stunted. I personally prefer the Behemoth, indeed I've cleaned and tweaked it myself, but I like to make options for the die hards who refuse to acknowledge it, hehe.
  • DaphistoDaphisto Hive Janitor Join Date: 2002-11-16 Member: 8917Members, Reinforced - Shadow
    Necrosis, I really like what you've done with the transparencies on the spines (and teeth?) nice work man.
  • NecrosisNecrosis The Loquacious Sage Join Date: 2003-08-03 Member: 18828Members, Constellation
    As I said in the readme, its mostly due to Hitman making me aware of how transparency worked. So I just sat and blue'd up all the bits and pieces.

    I dunno who "stole his idea" but I see it as a legitimate halflife skinning command, so really one should be crediting Valve.



    If you play around with the pack you'll see a predator and there's black versions of all the Aliens, as well as a greeny Fade one more suited to the second movie.


    I'm still hoping to get a third pack out, hopefully sometime next year, as I really really want to get a promotion in work, push me up to around 15,000 sterling a year. Which'd be nice.

    Glad to hear you like the pack Daph, its high praise considering you're one of the main originators of the whole Aliens modding scene for NS.

    and just recreate every animation sequence with this new bones....
  • Wolf_KahlerWolf_Kahler Join Date: 2002-11-29 Member: 10252Members
    The bones can be added to existing animations by copying and pasting in NotePad, but who wants to do -that-?

  • Wolf_KahlerWolf_Kahler Join Date: 2002-11-29 Member: 10252Members
    Well, yeah, but I don't expect to be doing much modelling or anything. Don't even play NS anymore. I'm too much of a lone gun for it to be any fun for me.

    But I'll offer what support and advice I can to the new guys, when I feel it's appropriate.
  • BarakkaBarakka Join Date: 2004-06-19 Member: 29397Members
    Woah, you guys mean there is a replacement pack for natural-selection based on the movie "aliens" !? That's awesome! Is it released yet, or still in progress?
  • sheena_yanaisheena_yanai Join Date: 2002-12-23 Member: 11426Members
    ahm..there was never a "replacement pack" for aliens..

    just lots of seperate models to change it to alien. the only thing that was packed together once are all the aliens for replacing the aliens.. there are all weapons from avp2 around.. welder,pistol,shotgun,lmg,smartgun,grenadelauncher, alien structures,alien queen hive, daphistos behemoth for the onos to replace his first rhino alien in the aliens alien pack. different kinds of human player models from avp/2 with or without smartgunanimations, and no avp human structures yet. only the regular buildings with the colonial marines logo on them. the sentry guns from the movie, alien eggs for gestating ,marine voice sounds from the game. crappy sounds ripped from the dvd...and so on but you have to find them yourself, because everybody is to lazy to support lazy ppls

    AvP Extintion, awesome game! I loved it so much I went out and bought it for XBox, even though I had it for ps2 =)
  • DaphistoDaphisto Hive Janitor Join Date: 2002-11-16 Member: 8917Members, Reinforced - Shadow
    What I am going to start working on this week is replacing the Alien Queen's textures with new high-resolution textures, as the current textures (especially the legs) are somewhat lacking in detail.
