Flux's Custom Factions

[Flux]

As I'm quite satisfied by the Red Unit, expect that to be the last faction to roll of this thread for a while.
Thanks for the support, everyone.

[Flux]

I haven't had time for AC as much lately, so I'm lacking in inspiration.
If anyone has an idea they want put into a faction, I'll probably make it for them.

Pentarc is looking for faction art - check his thread...

BlueFlux, I am currently in prediscussion for AAR 6 - Final Doom in the After Action Report section of the forums.

I will be playing the Exterminatus, a very, very hardcore alien.

I would like to know if you would like to nominate one of your factions to make an appearance in this AAR. You also have the option of playing this faction for an undecided yet upon number of turns while the AI plays the others including the Exterminatus  using scenario editor if you want to.

Thanks in advance for your help and look forward to hearing.

Sure. If your going to use a faction of mine in your AAR, use the Red Unit. I'd love to see someone else use it and include it in an AAR. I'm not sure what you meant with the second paragraph though. You want me to play it for a little while and send you the save, or did you mean something else?

[Flux]

Alright, a new faction may be rolling of the assembly line soon.
The Creche Union.
Childrens Creche. That's your hint.

You can either play it for a bit (have not decided number of turns yet. I will probably get down to that as time for the AAR approaches), or you can just sit back and watch the show. I will not force anyone to AAR because I know it is a pain for some folks.

What will probably happen is each will spend 20 turns for example. They will post screenshots and commentary in any style they wish. Then, give save file to the next person. If someone does not play the turns or AAR, it passes to the next, no biggie. That is, if I have takers. Otherwise, it will be just a standard AAR.

But, Red Unit it is. Thanks.

Alright, credit to BUncle for helping me with this.
Here is the leaderhead for the upcoming faction... Creche Union

[Buster's Uncle]

It's Nikolai possessed by Satan!.

[Flux]

Hey, can anyone tell me how to add audio to the blurbs? I think I have something that would fit the leaderhead nicely.

[Buster's Uncle]

Kil's in Australia, so he'll be a few hours responding.

[JarlWolf]

I believe I might remember how to do it- you need to have the name of your faction file, for example:

For the Crimson comrades, all the files are named CRIMSON in the folder (the pcx's, text etc.)

I would have the audio blurb I want named this way too, you put it in voices.

You have to make sure the file is an .MP3, so if its not convert it to an MP3- use program like CDexe to do conversions.


Edit: On that note... the mp3 file of the CC blurb as an example...

(and yes, I voiced it a while ago and added sound effects to it, its cheesy and im old and English isn't my first.)

[Buster's Uncle]

It's would be pretty disappointing for Vazelli to have unaccented English.

[JarlWolf]

Well he gets it as authentic as he comes... 

[Flux]

Okay. My next faction, the Creche, is about done, in the editing stages.
