Yay, topology :D Looks great overall, but you definitely don't need that much detail on the main body, so decrease the vertex amount! And I think the front legs should look more like the picture below, normally, legs aren't just so straight ;)

Spoiler: click to toggle
Looks very good so far, a worthy successor to the WWD pack! :P

I actually wouldn't reduce the body vert count (use LODs instead), but I agree about the limb front view.

This is one of the few species I was really missing ingame. It's really great to see you're making a hyaenodon and so far it looks amazing!

I can't figure out how to rig it in Blender 2.76.. Also, I definitely will do the thing with the front legs, and I'm going to export it as a bfb with LODs :P I started the Chalicotherium model, too. Anyone have any ideas as to what animations I should use for it? I don't feel up to making new animations. I was thinking of using giraffe animations, with a shortened neck, but I'm not sure if that solution would work.

It's really just the same as in 2.49. :P Weight painting and stuff is still there. Well, Okapi would be a lot closer, but perhaps gorilla or megatherium are possible candidates too?

Probably okapi, then. I don't think Chalicotherium sat upright or walked bipedally ever xD

Moropus sat upright (like pandas do it nowadays), I dunno about Chalicotherium. Definitely they didn't walk bipedally.

Ok, the reason I haven't been solidly chugging out animals 'n' stuff is I don't have a ton of free time, so I can only work on this pack for five or six hours a week. The solution? You need to help me out! (That is, only if you're a talented and/or experienced mesher/skinner.) I've already started LoG, but if you think you're qualified, and you want to help, feel free to get started. Just PM me first.

You can find a list of the episodes and the animals that they contain here. Just remember, LoG (Land of Giants) is taken, and we're only doing extinct animals here.

When you finish something, PM the file(s) to me, and I'll make a render of it, just so that all the renders have the same style; and then I'll release it here. You're welcome to post any in-game pictures you have yourself.

I voted Whale Killer cuz the community is seriously lacking a quality basilosaurus. (My apologies if one has been made. I just haven't seen any.)
