WIP Ultimate Collection

[Starry Might]

[EDIT] I've just released patch 1. This addresses a minor issue where only the bots were supposed to use the duplicate characters. Only install this if you don't want all the extra characters showing on the character selection tab. Each .upl (player information file) is now separate to enable players to only have the characters they want installed.

Are Augustus and Valiant (Heroic's alts.) still visible? If not, I'll skip this.

@ Kronos I'm waiting to see this pack's reception before deciding whether to go ahead with part 2. If I do, it won't be until after Christmas as I'm not in the mood right now and am taking a break from it for a few weeks.

I made one GM'K for myself though since I was itching for another to play with. His name's Aquila;

Starry yep it hides all dups. It's not necessary to use the patch it's really only an option for anyone that wanted it If you wanted though you could just use the (#08) Heroic .upl, change Menu="DUP" to Menu="SP" just for his dups and still get rid of all the extras (unless you want them that is) :tup:

That's too bad.

I'm pretty much an Instant Actioneer, so I guess I could edit the .upl file (backing up the original first).

Looks like you could easily play checkers on his skin

I like the way it gets darker on top and looks a bit like lava.

Sweeeeet!

Looks as if he's from a tribe around a volcanic area on their home planet.

 

[Kronos1000]

Good skin :tup: Id' love to see this in part II

 

[Random Elite]

Same here.

 

[Starry Might]

Hey Klasnic? I downloaded the patch yesterday, but after I got it and looked at the contents, I trashed it and just edited the original .upl.

No offense, but the way you've got the .upls named, you'd have to open them to see which skins they are!

EDIT: Please don't take this post the wrong way, okay?

 

[klasnic]

That's okay Starry. I had to name them that way so they'd still appear in the order they were meant to be in. I can see how it might have been a pain though

 

[Klasnic_E]

Aquila looks awesome! I haven't checked this thread in a while

 

[MajikMyst]

Klasnic,

I started combining your .upl files a long time ago. After I downloaded about the 4th or 5th character of yours. Right now, all your skins are in one single .upl. At least all the ones that I have.

The list includes:

Martu
Valiant
Augustus <-- My current character!
Marduk
Kaiser
Shah
Emir
Rex <-- One of my favs!
Zarthon
Rogue <-- I think this is the updated version.
Spike
Lancet
Kamala <-- Babe alert here! Satin ain't got nothing on this chick!
Nikita
Dimitri <-- Another fav!
Reman <-- Yet another fav!
Victor <-- Fav!
Vrykolakas
Tutivillus
Zvonimir
Stanic <-- This guy needs to clean the stains off his suit!
Hyperion <-- Bad boy here!
Spector <-- Behold! Let the bots begin!
Integer
Tensor
Exhibitor
Falcon <-- Materpiece here! One of your best in my view!
Automaton
Cadmus <-- Another Masterpiece and one of your best!
Nereus
Charon
Erebus
Sigma
Vigor
Cilix <-- You only did one Abaddon skin! I think he is awsome!
Kalunga <-- This is one bad @ss Skaarj! Nuff said!
Kaang
Adonai
Chukwu
Zamalek
Azrael
Malik
Tammuz
Jalal
Sebek
Fortuna
Boomer <-- The marines! Otherwise known as the dogs of war!
Adzic
Umit
Driller
Mukuru <-- OMG! Attack of the Gen Mo'Kai! You rock dude!
Decimus

Whew! Yup all those Klasnic classics are all in one .upl file. I even wrote bios for almost all of them, at least the ones that didn't have one. And soon! We will have the ultimate pack part II. Not to mention the long awaited Metal Guard skin, which will take his place in the Klasnic hall of fame!

Now if I can only figure out how to combine all those texture files.

 

[daloonie]

Dude you have way too much time on your hand...

To combine the textures in one texture pack is more advanced than assembling the .upl's.

You need to move all textures and shaders/combiners/final blends etc. and split them apart. Else textures will not be moved because they are used by the shaders/combiners/final blends etc.

You could alternatively export all textures import them into a new file and then use the original shader/textures settings to make the skins again as they were/is.
Then you would also have to edit the .upls again to fit the new textures else they would still use the old ones.

 

[klasnic]

zzz... OMG Majik LOL! As rex said probably best not to go near the texture files as some are really complicated and I shudder at the thought of how difficult some were to even make. I was wondering if by modifying the .upls would you get to see them online but I think it's only the character name and texture file that actually need to be the same - I'm testing it with the new ones to prove/disprove my theory

They did all have bios mind, Epic's patches just erased any that were originally installed by uMods. I had a backup of all those ones and I'll try find it later to post it here for you. A lot of those characters listed I haven't even seen in years as I stopped using them myself.

That said it's really getting near time (after part 2) to quit. I've already made much much more than anybody else for this game

[EDIT] Gave Aquila extra armour. As you can imagine getting the TCs good without changing the skin colour was always gonna' be a challenge. I specced him in game last night and he'd burn the eyes out of you

[Random Elite]

Perhaps an Artic cousin for him?

 

[daloonie]

Using such extreme colors and then expect them to not kill you eyes ingame = not possible with the brightness in game ouch
Even though I like the color.

I suppose his armor pattern is animated right? That artistic glass pattern?

EDIT:: Anyways I think we've found Klasnic's biggest fan hehe
Don't worry Majik it's no shame in that Klasnic does a good job

 

[Random Elite]

Agreed.
Every great artist needs one zealot to call their own.

 

[klasnic]

The body suit (not metal parts) is animated and twinkles, rex

Done and dusted then polished and shined

 

[Sahkolihaa]

The blue skin looks decent!

 

[Mr. UglyPants]

The red looks too pink make it look red!! (like Blood hahahah)

 

[Starry Might]

Nice Team Colors, Klasnic.

Oh and Klasnic_E, I like your new Avatar!
