Friendship Evolved Service Announcement

I'm taking the risk of reopening this topic one last time. If anyone believes they can carry on in my footsteps and create bipeds from the Friendship Evolved tag, please message me. It's been getting to me recently that I've been completely unable to finish it. I've got the original max files (compatible with max 7 and up) and even a dummy rig that I was working on. Improve upon or continue from what I've accomplished, that is all I ask.

Again, private messages only. You have my permission to publicly release a final build, but please do not redistribute original files or half-baked tags. If you don't think you can complete it, please don't bother asking.

KP-ShadowSquirrel made the high-def models publicly available, if you want to release low-res pony models, you aren't very bright.



As you can see, it's a bit hefty. This is everything I had from the day I stopped working on it. Everything you would need is there. Textures, models, data files, tags, everything. I will be looking out for more prominent and respectable members of this forum. This isn't a first-come first-serve deal.

So, do you think you can finish it?

how can it possibly be 2gb ?
it is a few textures, a tag or two and a max file?

Each model is different and there's sixteen of them. The textures are also quite numerous and quite large. I didn't have time to optimize the texturing, so each portion of the model has its own texture. 16 subfolders in the tags and a collision model that I didn't do properly thanks to time constraints. They actually share as many tags as they can, but that's just about four bitmaps/shaders.

Had I the chance to work on it even more, I bet I could've gotten it down to about 600MB for the whole collection.

EDIT: The tags alone are just under 200MB though. The 2GB is EVERYTHING. And most of that is just the Data folder and the Bitmaps folder for the max files.

Ponies.I think it would be funny to fight them as enemies or ride on them. xP

Don't start getting rowdy, Halomaps. I don't want it going down like the last two threads.


I think he meant as vehicles, but still.
Keep it clean.

Is there anything wrong with riding them like most do with horses,with a saddle and what not?
Ya know,like this?

Look at my horse, my horse is amazing.
Give it a lick, Mmmm! Tastes just like raisins!

With a stroke of its mane, it turns into a plane.

And then it turns back again when you...

Causing a hitch that results with a snitch.

Ain't that a bitch.

Watch your language, beach.

Or maybe drink some bleach!

well maybe if anyone is willing to teach me how to model better, that is...

I'll not respond to that. ooopsy

Fun is over. Return the topic of the thread: [FESA] Pass the torch

Ah, the wise Dennis has told everyone to stay on topic.
I would advise that we hold this opportunity at making new friendship evolved tags.
