Could you release another version of the mod that keeps the default fire giant texture?

I have used epic textures with the installer of aom heaven and it works multiplayer. Could you make a pack of all the mod just to be installed manually? perhaps it could work like that! Amazing work and thanks!:RyseHelmet:

I know, this mod has been automatically tagged as "Desync Sensitive" which unfortunately means it will not work online unless all players have the mod installed. The worse part is that it should be compatible online because it simply replaces textures through the anim files.

Great mods but i can't join mutiplayer games with these mods :(

Giants now have muscle abs and pecs. Very beautiful male bodies.

I have now fixed the Frost Giant foot print problem, instead of being snowflake-like textures, the foot prints are now normal giant foot prints with an icy mist effect.

The Mountain Giant looks quite off. A different weapon would've been (much) better imho, but this is still a really nice change and addition (especailly the Fire Giant!)!

Love especially that mod, cause first the fire Giant is a normal looking giant dude and with Hel he becomes a Badass.
Love it;)

I don't think there's a perfect way to fix the footstep issue, unfortunately... Probably best to just give him normal giant footsteps.

I understand and I only thought it might be fun in the editor. Thanks that you are going to fix the frost gaint foot print issue.
Nick3069  [author] 3 Sep, 2016 @ 7:12am 
But Rime is a Skadi upgrade and Granite Blood is a Hel upgrade, you can't worship both at the same time, so the only way you can have both is if you use scenario triggers.

I could remove the ice effect under the Frost giant but it doesn't feel like an ice giant anymore, I'll see if there is a better way to fix it.

firts of Rime/granite frost gaint hybrid sounds awesome. Second could you then remove the ice plate that is underneath the frost gaint it is now a weird snow circel that is crawling over the ground when he walks. I realy like your mods and I am sorry if i sound nit picky keep up with the good work.
Nick3069  [author] 2 Sep, 2016 @ 4:00pm 
Rime and Granite blood can't be researched together so why would you want a Rime/Granite hybrid? Also the ice footprint change is intentional because the default ice footprint have a graphical glitch that makes them fade to black before disappearing which doesn't look good.

and with normal foot prints i mean the icey snow drift(sorry for bad english).

Ok sure. Don't get me wrong, I really like it :)
Nick3069  [author] 29 Aug, 2016 @ 5:45am 
I'm satisfied with the current state of my mod and do not plan to change it.

Looove Frost & Mountain Giant!!

The pants on the Fire Giant seem to be a matter of taste, but I really like the added detail on the standard texture (face, chest). Any chance you can bring that to the upgraded texture as well? Possibly working from inverted colours, i.e. light on dark rather than dark on light? I know it has a smiley face but the standard texture is more convincing :)
[DoD]Mirez 16 Aug, 2016 @ 7:58am 
Maybe release the mods separately? The frost and mountain giant look solid but I really don't like fire giant with pants.
Android 15 Aug, 2016 @ 10:55am 
I just fired up the game agin.... I think with a player skirt for the mountain giant and maybe some better pants for both fire giants this mod will be awesome.
Android 15 Aug, 2016 @ 10:39am 
Fire Giant: Ok. Maybe then you could add pants to the upgraded version too though, for consistency?

Mountain Giant: It's not a big deal to change the models, you don't even need to import/export in Max. Just open in AMP, tick the box, and save. I think that should do it. Maybe try the player colour skirt first before you change the beard - the beard/hair is kind of his signature feature :)
Nick3069  [author] 15 Aug, 2016 @ 10:14am 
Fire Giant: I like the pants, but I do think I need to work on them some more. Feels weird to me that the fire giants are the only ones that are naked, I wanted to cover them up.

Mountain Giant: Maybe if I make the beard darker? I plan to change the skirt, but I can't make it player color, I would need to modify the models to add the pixelform flag.

Frost Giant: Thank you. I think I might have an idea to replace the footprints.
Android 15 Aug, 2016 @ 9:42am 
Much better, but still some room for improvement :)

Fire Giant: Love both textures and especially the new face - awesome work! However, those pants look completely out of place imo and I think he might look better without :D Plus he's a fiery demon so he doesn't really need pants :D

Mountain Giant: Good job but it seems like some of the colours/tones don't really go together that well - maybe if you changed his kilt to player colour or the green/greyish that he was wearing before. That might take out some of the contrast. The white kinda jars with all the grey/orange/brown imo.

Frost Giant: Spot on, love it :) You might want to remove those buggy footsteps (transparency bug in EE), like I did in my fix pack. Your call obviously.

Ok so I tried hades3.dtt (and hades4.ddt) for the upgraded Fire Giant and I think it's pretty great straight out of the box :) all it needs is a little player colour where the normal texture has it :)
Android 14 Aug, 2016 @ 7:01am 
No I meant the Mountain Giant's clothes and hair. You can keep those as they were and just change the face/arms/legs on the texture.

Frost Giant: Maybe if you just give him his frosty beard back that would do the trick? I feel like it just feels too different in bald anyway
Nick3069  [author] 14 Aug, 2016 @ 6:32am 
I never really liked the original fire giant texture. I think my upgraded texture needs some work though.

The mountain giant's clothes are not affected by the rocky texture, you can see the boots and skirt, I did make them topless though. I agree about the hair, that's why I gave frost giants a bald head, but mountain giants have their head attached to their body.

Hmm... I'll see if I can make the rocky frost giant look more icy.
Android 14 Aug, 2016 @ 5:46am 
*or Hades4, and you might have to downscale/multiply them, of course
Android 14 Aug, 2016 @ 5:41am 
Hmmm.... I have mixed feelings about this one, to be honest..

Fire Giant: I wouldn't change the regular texture, and for the upgrade I'd use the "hardened magma" look of the Hades3 terrain texture, for example. I think that might look really cool.

Mountain Giant: I like the granite texture but I feel strongly like it should only be on his skin, not his clothes and hair! That would preserve more of the original look&feel, too.

Frost Giant: Not sure about this one, to be honst.. It just looks totally different from the regular one, and not really icy any more. It's a tough one though.

Don't rush things - what makes your work special is not that one day you might have a complete set of upgrades (we already have that) but the fact that it fits in so well with the original art style :)
