That's more the ordinary grey/purple/blue dragon.

Also, could someone send me the plugin and I will see if it works.

Really? I have no experience with Windows Vista (It makes my computer slow I have only 1024 mb ram), but it works fine for me btw. Do you now how to change Crage's orb, light, whatever in his staff? If not I'll follow some files and I can tell you where the effect textures are.

UPDATE:

I removed the Zehir leftovers from Karador it's fully new now. If I don't learn how to change hair this will be the final version.

I can't post a picture now as I'm not on my computer.

I took a lot of time to figure it out, but I couldn't figure it out. If I remove the effect something remains it's the core of the light you can change the glow, but not the core (It looks wierd that way) try it out maybe you can find that core.

@Daystar : put the dds.8bi file (photoshopfolder\Plug-Ins\File Formats)
in the Plug-Ins\Adobe Photoshop Only\File Formats directory and then uninstall the nvidia plugin. It should work after that. I had the same problem and I'm on XP.

@Kronos1000 : Nice project you've got there and many people are helping you .

About the staff, the file seem to be Textures\auto-imported_______320\Effects\Spells\StoneSkin_rays\StoneSkinRayNoADD.tga.dds
This will change the color in the model

If you wish to edit the effect (in combat) you have to edit the file Textures\Effects\Spells\RaysGold04.dds (which you probably did) But I've got trouble making it work.... if you want a blue effect you can change the file :
Effects\_(Effect)\Characters\Heroes\Agrael\Stuff_bone.(ParticleInstance).xdb and put RaysBlue00 or RaysGold02 (2) or change the effect a bit by putting one with a different shape like RayRed02 or RaysBlue01 (that is :
<Textures>
<Item href="/Textures/Effects/Spells/RaysGold04.xdb#xpointer(/Texture)"/>
</Textures> )

Good luck with your project

I tried it, the only one that works is RaysGold02 (2), but it's barely visible, but I found another Blue effect and it works it's FlashGlow01NoADD it's a bit big, but it's the best we've got.

By the way is there any progress with Crage I really love how he looks.

@Kronos, are you happy with the Crage portrait I made or would you like a better one?  If Daystar changes any colours I can gladly fix the portrait to suit the character model.  And I will start work on Karador if the one you have done is the finished version.  If you need a better Crage, I will need the model textures.

I haven't posted the new Karador, but the only change visible in the portrait will be his little beard (Wich I removed) oh and he has black earrings with a blue diamond.

I haven't changed anything yet.  The DDS thing does not work, but I haven't tried Neckie's suggestion yet.  (NOTE TO SELF: STOP SLEEPING IN UNTIL 1:30 pm!)

I added a Poll to the first post of the thread (Yeah some words are Dutch) Er hebben x mensen gestemd means x people have voted. It's about when I should release a Beta, the Poll closes at August 10 after I finish the map that has the most votes I'll be selecting Beta testers I need 5 of course you'll get credit.

I modified the textures of the Phoenix to create this bluish version.  I call it the Cerulean Firebird.  Don't know if it would be of any use in your campaign, but if you like it and can find some role for it I'll be glad to finish it and send you the textures.  It would probably be good for the Beginning Dimension or something, given its colour scheme.  I could improve the fire by changing it to blue if someone would be so kind as to direct me to wherever the fire effect is stored in the data folders.



I'm having a little bit of difficulty with removing Zehir's beard in his portrait, but I'm working on it.  You can make the 32x32 Crage portrait yourself, just cut the size of the smaller one in half using Paint.  I can make an icon for the Celestial Dragon/Ancient One when you decide which one you like best, as well.

Oh my goddess, that pheonix is so much better than the other creatures, becuase it embodies two very different colors at once!  

Let's use THAT!

so beautiful...

To echo Kronos:  Wow, Daystar likes my first work!

I'm currently making icons for it, and hopefully I'll show you how it looks in-game tomorrow.

Good work Cepheus you've done a really good jod unfortunatly the Phoenix has too many effects to list they are in the data.pak file in this folder: Effects/_(Effect)/Characters/Creatures/Neutral/Phoenix/idle00.(Effect).xdb you can follow the files there and you'll find the textures in those files. I don't really have a role for your creature, but it can be added as a new Neutral there are two free offsets in the exe file to include new creatures. So no more than two can be added it's gonna be this one and the Celestial Dragon (This one has a major role after all)

Great to hear that you can implement my creature.  I designed it for your 'Beginning Dimension' so it'd be great if you could throw a few of them around in the map which takes place there.

Here's the collage - it's a bit messy, I know, but at least you can see what the Firebird looks like.



Two problems:  One, I'm having difficulty with the icon.  When I add it to the texture files, it does not show up and is replaced by a heap of random textures, as you can see in the picture.  The two smaller ones work fine, but the bigger two do not.  Please help!

Secondly, I want to edit the colour of the flames.  I accessed the files you pointed me to, but they are all in .xdb format and I cannot find any programs that can edit them.  Help would be appreciated here too.

It looks really good implanting icons is no problem for me I can do that for you and xdb files can be opened with notepad it's just a renamed txt file.

I have a bit of a role for it Crage's spec will be Master of Teleportation in the final map you almost get killed by the Celestial Dragon and Crage manages to teleport him and Karador away, but you'll end up back in the Beginning Dimension and Crage tells you a Legend I won't spoil that so there is another Ancient One here deep inside the Tunnels it's the Cerulean Firebird the creator of Mankind (I read ubisofts Myth of creation again it did not mention who created the life except for Demons and Dragons) you'll be teleported back to Ashan once you find it. Crage has to lead the attack and uses the Cerulean Fire Bird to destroy the Celestial Dragon it's a freaking hard battle since the Cerulean Fire Bird has lower stats than the Dragon it depends on how well you built Crage. I won't spoil what happens after it.

What do you think is this a good idea?
