Detailed description

Minimek is a port of a walker mech by roger666bacan done for quake 2, md2 configured for sauer team and npc. Lacks a backward animation. Very low poly.
Droid is md3 port of minimek, configured as an NPC character for Red Eclipse/MekArcade.
Mech A - codename Beholder
Medium mech. 40 tons.
Nice original design by Walter aka that works fine in Sauer as player character and a s NPC/entiry in Red Eclipse/MekArcade. We haven;t been able to get it to work it RE as player character, stands there stork like with a leg raised. Shoot it dead the death animation runs beautifully. Ah..... Not properly textured, cause what's the point if it ain't going to work. Please note the competition to make it work is closed, as we have an md5 in the pipeline.

***** Updated with 3 working models *******

Very nice! I don't see any installation instructions though. I took the ironsnout folder in models, emptied it and put in the mech files for sauerbraten in. The skins stretched over the model incorrectly, how do I fix this?

That would be the the md3 beholder? I think the others are OK. Because we couldn't get it to work in RE I never finished texturing it. We recently have been able to export and animate an md5 version of the model, and (fingers crossed) this one will be finished mid-late July. When it is I will post it. I promise it will be be beautifully textured, already its better textured - see http://mekarcade.com/download/md5running1.jpg

The new mek pack includes 3 chicken walker MD5 models that are already configured to work in RE as player or NPC models. They are straight out of MekArcade, and will probably be 'as is' for the 04/5 release.

They are scaled down to act as player models in MekArcade so if you use them as NPC or eyecandy in an FPS you will have to scale them up to suit your player size. They are all based on Mek A in the original post.

Mek 2 'Beholder' (Mek A in the original post) Medium mek, about 50 tons.
Mek 4 'Heavy Missile Mek' 80 ton heavy mek. Similar to Bowmen/Catapault in MechWarrior univers.
Mek 5 'Sniper Mek' a JJ capable medium mek

The animations are about 85% complete, they are still lacking torso rotation, a hit animation and ragdoll deaths. Also need a bit more texture work. I'm not going to do another export until the animations are complete, the mesh finalised and I have textured them better.

If there are any artists out there who would like to help I would love to here from you. Modelling, texture work, animation, there is heaps to do for all!
