That seems like the real deal to me! One question, what happened to the No Squitter sign after you passed it?

Thank you!

This object of "prohibited animal" has a direct relationship with the animal when you're mounted.
So if you're with Squitter, it will show "no go with the Squitter", if you're with the Rambi, it will show "no go with the Rambi" and so on.

Because we have not all animals, it still shows a null value, so the signal was gone when I passed him. But it is still in progress and will not stand (null) when we are with all the buddies.

Sorry my English, I hope you have understood.

Don't worry, I understood it all. As for your English, you speak it much better than other people I know that speak it as their primary language!

I haven't been on my computer for a week, so I couldn't give you a sprite sheet of DK on Squawks. I think I already had the PSD up. I think I might redo it, though, to make DK holding Squawks, because the way I have it is the other way around.

Wait a minute... am I an idiot? don't answer that... I bet, if you took a few frames of DK's rope swinging animation (from the middle), you could use those to make DK holding onto Squawks. I can animate it to see if it looks right, but I don't get home until late tomorrow (on vacation).

I edited the gif from your own. It was great, just a few more adjustments.
Incidentally I must apologize because I forgot to put your name in the credits on the video! :( Sorry! For the next video I will not forget!

Purple Squawks, with an unprecedented new skill for him, besides carrying barrels. This will open more possibilities.

The Blue Squawks? He appears in DKC2, Parrot Chute Panic:

I will do so =]

about the ability of purple squawks carry other buddies, I'll change the sprites Squitter, use the sprites of her jumping to her being carried by Squawks. Also for other buddies.

For the different versions of Squawks, I suggest slightly different crates, since they all have the same one. I also think Flapper and the purple Squawks should have a more noticeable colour difference, since they're almost the same but have different abilities.

I made different symbols by each one. The regular green Squawks has an egg, Flapper has a barrel, and the purple Squawks has a down arrow.

If you look in the animation section, I was working on making a better version of DK to hold onto Squawks. Let me know if you like it and want a sprite sheet.

Wow! Nice work!! You are a genius! Thank you for contributing your work to our project, you all will be mentioned.
About DK to hold onto Squawks, you could post the PSD file?

If you need them, I've made turning animations for all of the Kongs on Squawks. I'm not sure if you've seen it, but I also redid Donkey riding Squawks.

I've also just photoshopped Dixie riding DK. I thought you might want it for your box art.

I was going to make an entire scene, but I can't for the life of me find a good collection of all the DKC renders... I'm basically stuck to google and the Donkey Kong Wiki.

Which renders do you need, Phyre? I have basically everything. :P

Or are you looking for a good collection of them so you can pick and choose? My last and only uploaded image archive was on mega upload *ahem* so you won't be able to find it now, that link is dead.

Sadly, the archive is several MBs in size and is far too large to upload here.

Re: Donkey Kong Country 4!!! begin ;)

PostPosted: April 14th, 2012, 2:36 pm

Yeah, I just wanted to look through them to see what would work. I remember that the DKU had a collection, but when I went to look today, they had so few... I don't know what happened to them, and they don't have a search bar.

I think that would be a good thing to have on the main site here... if it wasn't such a pain in the ass to upload them. It would probably get more people to use the main site, rather than just the forum.... or just upload them in a zipped file.

I don't want to ask you to do something that's going to take like five years! :P

Hey Simion, you could upload those files that you mentioned?? If not much work. Thanks in advance!

Someone would have 3D models (.obj, .3ds, .dae, etc.) of the following characters?

Squawks
Ellie
Kiddy Kong
Winky
Rattly

I got several DKC 3D models on this site:
http://www.models-resource.com/

But these I have cited above have not found :cry:

If I were to guess, I don't know of anyone specifically, but you might want to check deviant art for 3d models. I remember seeing a King K. Rool one there, and I think you might find somebody that does 3d DKC models.

Is there anywhere else that has a collection of the renders that I can browse through?

It really sucks that you can't upload those anywhere convenient, Simion.

This file is too big? You could upload in parts.

I also want to collaborate posting something that is useful ehehe. So I downloaded all the DKC 3D models of the site models-resource.com and all joined in a single 3D Max file:

Download: http://www.4shared.com/rar/rK9GZsMy/DKC-models.html

I would love to add one more character to our project and found this Tiny Kong model on the site models-resource.com

The problem is to do for her Rig and animations. Anyone? This I think would be difficult to get =/

EDIT:
Check the "Edit Bonus!" folder for some extras I threw in.

Also, there are probably some duplicated files in there.

None of my cumulative scan collection was included, except those art scans already put in the main character/background art folders.

I am finishing up Ellie and I would have this kind of cascading water to demonstrate the engine:

This animation was submited by Cody, in this forum:
viewtopic.php?f=26&t=314&p=20547&hilit=cascadecapers#p20547
(yes, I asked him too, but do not know whether to answer my PM)

I can not use animation because I need only the waterfall (without the background of rocks).
Please, somebody would have this or something similar? I tried to do here but was not convincing :(
