Post subject:  Starcraft Mod?

I've been hoping a Starcraft mod would pop up over time, but sadly it's never happened :(

So, I'm here to ask someone to help me make one.

It could consist of three factions, and since the units have already been created, I don't think their units should be changed alot.
So basically heres what Im thinking:

Each race should have atleast 2 units and a dropship. The Terran would have a Marine and a Goliath, the Zerg would have a Zergling and an Ultralisk, And the Protoss would have a Zealot and a Dragoon. Their vehicles would obviously be a Dropship, Overlord, and Shuttle.


So, thanks for anyone who decides to help me.

Also, hello forums :D

Starcraft was created and is owned by Blizzard Entertainment.<--Felt that was needed.

Sprites so far:

Terran Stuff: (Put together in Paint.net) Image
Marine Rifles: Image Image
Head: Image Image
Torso: Image
Limbs: Image
Hands/Feet: Image Image

Attachables
Shoulders: (With painted on crossbones :D) Image
CrotchGuard: Image


Zerg Stuff: Image
Zergling Head: Image
Body: Image
Limbs: Image
Claws And Attack: (These are ontop of it, and its a slash attack)Image

I hope you're willing to do sprites. Not much of a way you're getting this fulfilled otherwise.

I do have some experience spriting, from minecraft skins to some other stuff, but I was kind of hoping no one would ask that, but I will try and do my best. It is sort of fun, anyway. :P

I also have have completely no experience in making cortex command mods, even though I've been playing well over a year. Ive always depended on you guys. Guess I should start now.

Im off to see how to sprite CC peoples. :P

Yeah cause starcraft had pretty awesome units, but i imagine only duh could get the goliath's offsets right.
Though if you dindt read the how to get your request taken up sticky.
offer an incentive, sprites, coding help, money, sound effects, SOMETHING.

Will any colors work in CC, or do i need to use colors from a certain color swatch?
If you do need it, I downloaded it, but I can't figure out how to get it into Paint.NET.

[Edit] Nevermind, I found the palette.bmp

Yes, you must use those colors. The same swatch is also in Base.rte/palette.bmp.

Can someone explain to me the arms and legs, and body plating?

Author:  Duh102 [ Sat Nov 21, 2009 3:41 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Starcraft Mod?

Arms and legs are sprited with the 0th frame the most contracted, the end frame the most extended. The front of the left or arm is up in the sprite.
I'm not sure what you mean by body plating, those are just attachables, just regular sprites.

I just played Starcraft for the first time today. IT WAS AMAZING.

LETS DO THIS. I'll try to do Zergling stuff some time this week. I'm going to need a coder, though.

Edit: Fuuu... I did some stuff but it got deleted somehow. Fuggit. It wasn't any good anyway.

Or, you could find someone who still has Numgun's AAL and recolor those for the terrans.

I have it, PM me, interested people.

I don't think it would feel right to just recolor AAL. I had a fun time playing with them, but it got kind of repetitive. I wanted something more starcraft-ish.

Also Terrans, I believe, are taller than Humans.

And Protoss are about the height of Terrans, if not taller. Maybe about the size of the Prawn from the D9 mod. Im also thinking the Goliath would look something like the exosuit.

[Edit] And for the arms and legs, does it have to only have four sprites, or can it have more?
I may need 5 for the arm im making: Image

As many as you like, up to a limit of 500* or something... Same with legs and anything else that has frames. Just continue with the naming convention, going from 000 up.
*something high like this but not really feasibly reachable unless you're making a nuke animation.

Ive been using this for reference: Image

Trying to make them look a little more grey, generic-ish. I used a different pic for the gun, though. I do think the gun he has in that pic would look awesome in CC, though so I might sprite two guns for them :o
