Well, I'm sure Cestus has *something* for you... I'll go talk to him =)

Looks like I may not make it in time. Holidays were busy...
If I need to, I'll just upload mine myself with a link to the CC challenge.
'Twill be AI for a certain storm, maybe, if I find another hour or so.

The CCC entries on the Vault sometimes get updated with content that didn't quite make the original deadline.

Gah! Did you just volunteer me to do a second version?! *Stares at the large purple one with his foot in his mouth*. Hmmm... now where is that button to get a screenie of THAT. *sassy grin*

File merge is in progress.

Ummm...well, it's been done before.  So, um, there was, uh, precedent.  Yeah, that's it.  Precedent.  My big word for the day.

[TheSpiritedLass]

*chuckles* Sure it has been done before, but sheesh man, you could at least tempt me with some chocolate before adding things to my todo pile! *brandishes a spiffy looking snowshoe at your hmmm... foot* Yeah that didn't quite work out. *laughing*

Merge as done as I can get it for now. Demo module is in decent shape, all the blueprints and map notes are done. No eye candy design until I get the hak finished to know what all I have to display. I won't be able to work on the hak/demo again until Friday.

Working from Rolo's list in the project:
DONE pile:
+ Draygoth28: creatures - polar bear & winter wolf mounts *MERGED, ERFS UPDATED, PORTRAITS MADE*
+ Mistress: loadscreens - Winter Scenes *MERGED*
+ Rubies: creatures - Freezing & Flaming Sphere *MERGED, PORTRAITS MADE*
+ Tarot Redhand: placeables - Frosty Ground *MERGED, ERF UPDATED*
+ The Amethyst Dragon: body part, item and placeables - Snowshoes *MERGED*
+ Vibrant Penumbra: placeables - Snow Moguls *MERGED*

NAUGHTY FILE PILE:
+ Cestus Dei: vfx creature - Snow Flurries & Blizzard Elemental *SUBMITTED* - IM sent with question
+ Tarot Redhand: icons - Frozen Books *SUBMITTED!* - Icons look odd in the toolset. Tested #19 in game and it looks correct. Email sent.

NO FILES pile:
+ Cestus Dei: vfx - foggy breath *postponed*
+ Jez_fr: Unknown - Secret Santa Stuff
+ _six: creatures - collaborate with Draygoth28 on mounts
+ wyldhunt1: script - AI for Blizzard Elemental

NOT HAPPENING pile:
+ Rubies: creature & spell - Wall of Ice
+ Rubies: spells - Frost Weapon Spells

Hubby crashed early on me today so I had time to work on this a bit. Yes, I know it isn't Friday. Guess I'm just a liar. *grins*

Got Cestus Dei's creatures merged in. Blueprints made for Tarots books and the demo is done. Hey now! There was no need to fall out of your chair in shock. Sheesh. So the files are basically ready for the Vault shortly after the book fixes are in from Tarot. He was going to be computerless for a few days. *shudders in horror*

What is the status on files for a possible version 2? Cestus? Jez? Six? Wlydhunt?

[Rolo Kipp]

<tossing out comments...>

Cestus has hit a little teeny snag on the *November* challenge... his Urchin hides in game, though it renders fine in the Toolset. He's working on that.

Then Foggy Breath, which should basically be just a retexturing of the bubbles VFX, so it should be "easy" ;-)

<he's gaining on you, boss>
*Damn* his quick stumpy legs!

<...on the run>

[Tarot Redhand]

Just sent the updated images 2 mins ago. To clear one thing up. I have access to a PC almost constantly, it's the internet I have very limited access to.

<writing a bunch of...>

Just a bump on the Winter - Version2: I'll be updating the Vault with V2 mid-February.
So if you've got a late entry <like your foggy breath?> (hush!) email it to nwncccmakers@gmail.com by Feb 10th, 8am PST.

<...late cards>

Version 1 is away!  Hmmm that makes it sound like a torpedo.

Wrong theme, Dearheart. That was November. <go, boss! go!>

<...and running like blazes>

[TheSpiritedLass]

*blinks several times, double checks the title and the link* Noooo it is winter... *gets the clue that torpedos are underwater and noogies Rolo*

[Rolo Kipp]

<stumbling...>

Gah!

Damn, she's fast with them noogies! Thought I had a good enough headstart :-P
Bother, remind me to lay down chocolate distractions before I pun her again. <sure boss. wont help, though. she has that whip...>
I'll try it, anyway.

<...and falling flat on his face>

[TheSpiritedLass]

What? I get chocolate every time Rolo says a horribly bad pun? Oh heck yeah! Bring on the puns! *Gets out a rather large, but empty, bag.*

[The Amethyst Dragon]

And it's online!  Sweet.

[Vibrant Penumbra]

 I want chocolate too! *pout*

*looks thoughtful*

*looks sly*

*smiles sweetly*

*hugs Rolo*

@ Funny little wizard: I'll finish the icicles on the moguls and maybe add a door texture to the end of the riser for Feb.

Toodles!

*walks slowly away... because she's a little encumbered with all the chocolate she lifted*

[Rolo Kipp]

<light hearted...>

Fantastic! Look forward to it :-)
*returns the hug, quite happy to have traded of an excess of chocolate covered snails for some good yellow gold*
<hey! those were *my* snails! mistress *gave* them to me!>
Sorry, Bother. We'll get more, honest.

[Rubies]

Small note, aren't those my old sphere models? The screenshot, anyway. Haven't had a chance to download it, just got home last night.

[TheSpiritedLass]

Heya Rubies,
Those were the models I had. Zap me out the latest versions and I'll compare the two?

[Rolo Kipp]

<gingerly opening a small, non-descript package...>

Ah. As my *good* friend Cestus Dei points out, it's the deadline for the v2 files for December's Winter theme.

Got the improved moguls from Pen and this scary looking box from grumpy.
*pokes around in the box*
"Fogbref"? What in blazes is Fogbref?! <the 'foggy breath" vfx you committed him to a couple months ago?>

Ahhh. Right. *shakes the amorphous stuff out and holds it up to the light* Hmmm. Not much to it, is there. <it's *fog*, boss>


A 6 second cycle, it says here. Suitable for any warm-blooded, breathing creatures. Hmmm, can you make out the scratches underneath? <he says 'ye got me gold, yet, ye olde' ...something>
*clears throat* Right.

So, anything else coming in?
+ Jez_fr: Unknown - Secret Santa Stuff
+ _six: creatures - collaborate with Draygoth28 on mounts
+ wyldhunt1: script - AI for Blizzard Elemental

<...from cestus>

[Jenna WSI]

Rolo that's a really cool touch. I'm thinking more for use in modules than servers, with the recycle time?

[Rolo Kipp]

<being pedantic...>

It is an applied visual effect, so it is only on the client side.
The 6 second cycle means there is a puff of fog every 6 seconds or so. The effect lasts until taken off.

Edit: The animation is built in, there is nothing "firing" every 6 seconds, nothing added to the heartbeat, or anything. It's just an emitter with some animation keys on it.

<...to be sure he's clear>

I so want that fog breath VFX.

I have an icy cold area that's just begging for something like this.  PCs get bubbles when underwater, they need visible breath when it's freezing.  It would also be perfect to bring attention to my PW's in-game winter months (as if the snow falling from the sky, freezing cold streams, and need for a cloak outdoors wasn't enough).  Oh, maybe even as an added 1 round visual for creatures hit with frosty magic like cone of cold.

[gutwrench66kg]

The cold breath is a fun effect to add. Daemon Blackrazor had one that was used when we played on his old ISSIG campaign world.. was such a nice touch for the out of doors areas.... And yep, a bigger one would make a great replacement for ice dragon breath, and winter wolf frost breath.
