Re: Using other Engines for Myth

Myth in SC2 could be cool. I messed around a bit with getting Myth's colormaps into SC2, but had some trouble with it. Since everything is tileset based I basically made one tile the entire color map with a really small SC2 map. I have not yet figured out a way to import or export height maps from ...

Re: Using other Engines for Myth

Teagls, they look great! Quite inspiring! I wish I could do 3D modeling or map making. Just looking at the early examples that you've shown already, you can see the great potential for a more modern look to Myth. The units look like they're supposed to look but already you get a more immersive feel ...

Re: Using other Engines for Myth

Out of curiosity, what are you main gripes with the Myth II engine? Just the low-res sprites? No 3D units? ;) Well yeah 3D units would probably look more aesthetically appealing but it's not just that. If you look at CoD for instance, the environments are really quite amazing but it's not just that...

Re: Using other Engines for Myth

Thanks for the reply. Yes CoD is a great game, however I can speak for most of my LAN buddies (15 in all), no RTS has EVER come close to the tactic chess like gameplay that Myth brought to gaming. (We've played quite a few RTS titles and many of them are great games in their own right). It really is...

Using other Engines for Myth

I so appreciate what you guys have done with Myth and Myth2, we still play them in our LAN parties along with current game titles of course. But there's something about Myth that we just can't stop throwing into our LAN party mix. It's like the fries with your cheesburger and shake, or hotdogs and c...
