    These units look much more detailed than the ones in the current version...Are you sure we will be able to run the new version smoothly if we can run the current version alright?

    I ask because I currently have a crappy pc...Lol
    If TNS or Wars of Men runs smoothly on highest settings on your PC, then Dominion of Men will also run smoothly.
    I read this so called Bible, and found it to be a third rate story in which this so called 'jesus' is nothing more than a shameless lampooning of Brian, which has inspired joy and laughter in millions.

    They might have gathered information from The Hobbit...I think there is a little info on them in there.

    In addition, the people of Rohan and Dale share a common ancestry.

    Okay...I sure hope so.

    Also, what program is used for by modders for creating new skins/units?

    For unit skins, you can use any graphics program that has all necessary functions (brush and mask variants, layers/objects etc.) like Adobe Photoshop, Corel Photopaint or Gimp (the last one is free, download it from the net).

    For unit models, you need a 3d modelling program like 3dsmax. You also need the .cas converter (for max) to convert the model files into the format used by the game engine (.cas). 3dsmax is expensive (apart from a free trial), but you can also use blender - it's free and a bit complicated at first, but it has everything you need to create 3d models and uv-maps, and there are lots of tutorials on the net. The .cas converter works for max, not for blender, so if you are using blender, you need someone with 3dsmax who's kind enough to convert your models. If you use blender, I recommend exporting them as wavefront .obj files before sending them to someone for conversion, since this saves the uv-mapping accurately and does not triangulate polygons by default.

    Awesome Dale units, Éorl!

    I guess this counts as a screenshot...



    I've been too busy lately to do a proper preview of the non-gfx department of the mod, so here's a little something for you.



    Province set-up is WIP. One (emergent) faction missing. Have fun guessing!

    This is some joke, right? There are several new factions here, and you already announced all new factions (Dale, Elves, Dwarves).

    No joke. 17 factions in DoM in total.

    Do I count on guessing or I'm ineligible for the reasons we both know?

    lol, no, you are ineligible.

    Pitiful attempt, Aradan. You cannot fool us so easily.

    New factions:
    The Shire
    Beornings/Woodmen
    Gwathló-People
    Rhovanion
    Variags
    Far Harad
    Harondor? (it's a lighter red than Harad has)

    => never ever
    I would rather have a memory that is fair but unfinished than one that goes on to a grievous end.

    Apparently there will be more factions than they told us...

    From what I can see this is the faction list:

    - Reunited Kingdom: Black
    - Rohan: Dark Green
    - Harad: Red
    - Haradonder: Light Red (is it just me or does that colour differ from the red of Harad)?
    - Dwarves: White
    - Adunabar: Purple
    - Dale: Dark Blue
    - Elves: Green
    - Easterlings: Dark Red
    - Dunland: Brown
    - Rhovanion: Orange
    - Beornings: Dark Brown
    - Khand: Yellow
    - The Shire: Light Green
    - Rebels: Grey
    - Minhiriath/Tharbad?: Blue
    - Far Harad?: Beige
    + 1 Emergent faction: Corsairs? Easterling tribes? Eastern Dwarves? Invasion from Valinor? Invasion from the King's Men of Ar-Pharazôn (returnign to Middle-earth)?
    Lungorthin: Lord of Balrogs!

    It's not "Gwathlo-people", but other than that pretty good. Plus the one that doesn't make an appearance on that map.


    EDIT: That's better. However the emergent faction list is quite off (though we did consider a Valinor faction briefly, but then it was replaced with a Smurf faction, which was subsequently dropped due to hardcoded reasons having to do with pea-catapult animations).

    Balrogs, the invasion from the void?
    The Burning Legion?
    The Armies of Khorne?

    Lol, who knows... Maybe a Dol Amroth emergent faction would be fun.

    Lol, the smurfs. Good old times.

    But that was the hind I needed: The Wargs will form a nation, and armed with buckets, brushs and rollers will cover the world in darkn... eh PINK!


    Anyway, I hoped for more regions and rebel settlements. This setup will immediately result in war with the nearby factions.

    Where would you have more settlements?

    I personally prefer fighting against other proper factions instead of rebels with different units.
