as the list is being builded ill keep track of who has denied permission, granted permission,   and also no response.

myself, buster swd, and leonhartgr will be working on this. if you wish to help itd be preferrable if you have a working understanding of kimera. just send me a pm

general public if i missed something in my list let me know through a post or pm. if youd like to offer suggestions go ahead. if youre going to shoot something down offer an alternative

I'm actually interested in how you did this. which file are you manipulating? how are you dealing with the animations?
 
the magic lgp contains the files for all summons. the skeleton is a .d. open it with kimera switch the pieces, add textures, resize etc, then resave as modelname.d. the animation didnt change at all from knight01. i wont be changing animations much or at all if it can be avoided. simply placing characters in a spot where it looks natural
 
so which Knight do you want to replace with wich? there are some obvious choices such as the spear knight and Cid, the magic knight and Aerith, the last big one Zack or Sephiroth, ( seph makes more sense )
I'd actually have to check all the knights but I think you might run into little problems
as a suggestion, if you can, make them use their ultimate weapons if they have any
 
i think this is best bet based on the animation
1cloud
2cid keep the knights weapon spear
3vincent it kinda looks like the knight could be holding a pistol at the end
4tifa looking at just the hands could be an over head smash
5cloud
6cloud
7aeris
8cid keep the knight trident
9barret points his arm
10yuffie
11cloud
12cloud
13cloud

seph and zack in any cloud spot
 
Open with Zack, nostalgia trip as he started the whole thing
cid sounds good,
third definitely holds a STAFF. it's a fire wiz. should be aerith
next one holds an axe, could be tifa
after that another sword knight, could be cloud ( maybe with a slightly edited suit as a 'young cloud' )
another axe, could be
a small staff, this could be vincent with his claw
another spear, could be substituted with yuffie and her shuriken
this one has some weird kind of weapon that resembles a staff as well. Could be aerith again
this one has a spear again
second to last one has a big axe
last one has yet another sword, should be cloud
big one should be septh


if you can get models to just use the knights weapons, then you wont have any trouble. I dunno if you can though
 
well see how it turns out. there will be alot of brainstorming. im trying to fit in a character along with their weapon. vincent with a gun, barrett with gun arm, cid could use the nights weapons or his own, yuffie and shuriken.
 
Personally I think using the knights weapons would look a lot cooler
 
yes but after its said and done the summon will no longer be about the knights.
 
I still say it would look cooler if they used the knights' weapons
simply because the weapons look good.
 
only in few circumstances. cid is the only one that should use knights weapons. the other 6, not counting cait and red, have at least one model redone
 
I wouldn't open with Zack, but it would definitely be awesome to end with him. I wouldn't use Sephiroth either. Since he's the main villian it would be weird to use it against him.
 
Oooh.. Nice concept :mrgreen: !
Replacing summons isn't anything new, but this sounds interesting :wink:
So I guess the materia will sort of summon past characters or something, huh?
 
i just think itd b cool to have characters summoned for the strongest attack. i will take into account all ideas. I can always expand this. But first release id like to have it as i envision. Im trying to learn how to make an installer. If this is really liked i can add on to it and try to make an installer like umi or the first tab of the bfe
 
You could always make a first release where you use nothing but Cloud's model for every knight. It would have a bit of a Dragon Ball Z feel to it then.
Would also be fun to make a joke version of this with characters like Bugenhagen.

ya i saw the youtube vid and that's what i thought as well......but boy it's gonna be a real chore renaming the model parts and substituting respectively. Moment i saw this vid i've been trying it out myself with the cloud battle model in the game...
 
@archerxtreme I sent you the knight03 I replaced as Vincent .  If you or someone else can fix the animation so as the model do not fall apart it would be awesome :)
