A Tribute To Slaor

Post by TheJamsh »

It's not much, and probably makes little sense in the way of a tribute, but that chaps work on things like FE and Epic is what inspires me to keep 10+ installs of this game on my HDD, even if nothing comes of it. Can only hope to one day be as creative and talented as he!

Enjoy. Red Devil says he's in the process of making this map complete for a future portion of Epic mod. Look forward to blasting away on it with you all.

Good god, man. Nice video.

I wish someone would make a tribute to TV too -- both of them were great people who accomplished a lot in the community.

I've always thought a fitting song for TV was "Eulogy" by The Flatliners

If sure they would be eventually, Slaor was always very generous with his stuff!

They are quite amazing! The textures are only 512 for the most part, and the grid size is 3x regular BZ, but oh my days. It's so pretty. ZEMod used 512 terrain textures as well... maybe that's the magic number for this game...

a tribute would carry more weight if not for the plug for your own mod...

yup, that's why i said that; kinda like giving a eulogy, then telling everyone, "And don't forget to eat at TJ's!"

Clever interpretation of his post :)
Red Spot, you indirectly agreed with RD.

I only dropped in some of my own assets because stock isn't really... worthy. Just needed to look as good as possible. Didn't even record it with intention of it being a tribute, just used it for lack of something better. I did say it probably makes little sense, and it doesn't. If I used my mods assets for the video, might as well say so.

Oh well, it's the thought that counts. Might as well live up to the bastardly 'reputation' I seem to have gained while I haven't been around. Even people I've never worked with seem to be bitter about something...
