CS Q: Whats a zoo monster?

[ket]

I saw it in the game_relations file for CS. Could somebody pull its creatures ltx file, mesh and skin for me please?

[Victim]

Unfortunately, the 'Zoo' mutants probably aren't as exciting as I'm thinking that you might think that they are.

I believe that they're simply unique copies of standard mutants used for story purposes - although I'm yet to see anything that might be related to them in the game itself so I may be wrong. Attached is 'm_boar.ltx' for your viewing pleasure...or displeasure.

Well that sort of sucks.. looks like the "zoo" monsters are special versions of regular versions at best.. so maybe a different skin is used for them. I'd be interested in looking at those skins if thats the case.

[EggChen]

I didn't see any different skins for mutants.... sorry buddy.

The only one was the single "new" mutant, the marsh bloodsucker.... think "new texture" rather than "new"!!

[ket]

O_o that sounds pretty cool. Is the marsh bloodsucker some uber looking mutant or something that looks like it belongs in a flower shop?

[EggChen]

I'll send you the texture, it looks OK in game, but does not have a new bumpamp

Good old GSC, if its worth doing, its worth doing half-heartedly....

[ket]

Cool I'll look forward to your email I'll see about making a nice new bump map for the texture as well. Your far too kind to GSC, I would of said good old GSC, if somethings worth doing you can guarantee they will do it half-arsed. I will NEVER buy a GSC game ever again, unless its in the bargain bins at game for £4.

[EggChen]

Here you go buddy, and anyone else that wants it....

I'll cut GSC some slack as they made SHOC!!

[ket]

Ta FYI NEVER minimise the SDK while rain is loaded into it, it will make your PC CRASH! :O I just found that out the hard way..

[ket]

I haven't used this skin yet so don't know what it will look like, but give this a try. I built the bump map into the image.
