  1. I am really sorry for what i am about to say, but i really need to say it, and do not mean to make you feel bad or troll your product.

    I would suggest in future if a product is not for you to not bother posting or you do have my skype could asked me directly.

     

    i mean, planned release price $400?

    alpha $200? indie ironically.

    You should check around on indie prices were lower then a lot Indie means you make under 100,000 a year. I would agree its expensive for a guy in his home doing this as a hobby.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    ok, back to facts fundamentals,

    -there is just static model meshes only

    -no animation(90% of time pro animations are the hardest to do, therefore the value of product)

    -7k triangles count, high count for mmo environment if you want optimization and crowded places.

    -10 dls per model, well actually $20 since they are male and female of each, meaning, female or male conversion is almost the same, but to add or remove gender related features, easily done.

    -no visual of the models, not s single pic of them, just your word.

    -no refunds, i do agree with this one since it is a digital product., but if you dont show me (visually)what i am purchasing before the purchase how would i know the quality of models, and mostly of the material of the models.

    ive seen people posting show me the pics but you lack to do the propper action.

    nor have seeen it ever.

     

    Your missing what were building right now with the texture and the way we have opened the code up for changes as we make videos on it there are a ton of possibility. I cant take a screen shot of a dark elf as every person using the pack can make there darkelf the way they want it. I have asked others using the product to post some screen shots but its there design Ill post one below but as every game is different shades your results will very.

    The reason of the triangle count is that's what uma properly uses and the time of needing 2k models in games is years ago even old games such as resident evil 4 used 12-15k triangles on characters.

     

     

    If the product is not to your taste or is above your budget don't worry about it find something inside your budget. Posting a long rant does nothing but spend time that's not needed to be spent happy development.

  2. On Jan 5th UMA Fantasy Races Creator Pack will no longer be available for per sell prices as the products alpha level now can be download on purchase. Alpha prices will be increased to $200 still a 50% savings on planed release price. Beware this is a digital product and there are no refunds as you can not give code and models back.

  3. Thanks you, Do you have links to pic s for these assets?

     

    Nope just finishing them wont take new pics until they are shipped. Hopefully in next week or two. On shipping date we will sell the models for a price above per sells but under finial price. At this time finale Price is planed at $400

     

     

    I assume the 0ct31 date was for Oct 31 this year and not next and you just missed the deadline, so when will they be available?

     

    Yes we ended up making a lot of code changes so the race pack would easily plug into atavism and easy to modify them to are customers needs. Such things as customers being able to change slider ranges per race max and minimums per race using more then one uma DNA pattern. Also we took care to try make are stuff work with almost anything works with normal UMA humans. We are hoping to release in next week or two it all depends on how last minute things go.

     

     

    Does it incluse any animations?

     

    No animations are in pack all of the characters use mecanim and there are lots of animation packs out there for a price we can not compete with.

     

    It does work with the current Atavisim and Atavism-UMA builds correct?

     

    No this only works with Atavism-UMA (new code will be provided with art files and video to install, next update of atavism 2.3 will included the new uma files also so if you wait tell 2.3 you will not half to add files mainly) Think of it more as Lego blocks to make races you are not limited to the races in the pack. Watching the training video you will be able to mix and match items to start making extra races from the pack items.

     

    Thanks.

     

    Hope that answered your questions

  4. 7 and 8 is already possible

     

    Smoos told me only way to add a skill was at character creation at this time. You cant back date characters in any way so you cant add any thing to them in fact if you add new effects and abilities to a skill the old character can not even get those. If this has changed I would like more info.

  5. we have some of the races in some testers hands there is a update in the uma code for the next release of atavism that makes adding are races easy and lets people with the multiracial kit do some serious changes. Dakora is one of are testers Ill ask him he can post with his honest thoughts. Some art work has changed and original screens shots should not be used for reference in fact going pull them down now hope start updating to current art next few days.

     

    We Hope to have the final models ready to go with the atavism update with are uma code in it.

  6. @ebolinux

     

     

    yes UMA allows you to adjust the characters appearance so with one dwarf you can have thousands of options. Look at something like Star Wars Galaxies character creation or Everquest two for examples of sliders in action or the UMA humans in atavism already.

     

    No at this time we will not be doing hair as long as we hit 10 presells we will have the funds to add a hair artist to the team to start making hair packages for latter release. Also if sells stay up we will be doing multiple texture packs for the face like freckles scars and such.

     

    Yes already in atavism you can adjust the skin color so it would work the same for these models.
