See if the troop pictures in the Azorani and Namovan shipsets are anything like what you need. If so, I might be able to generate some variations of those.

If you like it, I'll go ahead and create variations of it.

When thinking about these mechs, think more Gundam and Macross, rather than Battletech. They need to look speedy and agile above all else. Some examples of what I have so far are...

MechaSmall
MechaMedium
MechaLarge
MechaAssault
MechaElite
MechaElite_mini

These are all blatant rip-offs from samples provided by the doga website but I have been trying to do some tinkering using them as a template.

I took a look at the Namovan and their troops look like a good basis for the light Xi'Chung mechas. Could you come up with a slightly more "spaceworthy" Version of them in Xi'Chung colours?

I don't have a copy of the Azorani on my comp and I can't det to either PBW or SOTAS. Do you have a link?

I'm trying to add Giant Mecha to the standard shipsets so that there is more than one race in my mod that can use them. Basically, I need at least a few mechs per race that at least loosely follow the races theme.

Well, tis already done (just need some pics) and it's quite well implemented if I do say so myself.

Not too bad. It looks kinda like a Terran or Piundon repair mech. That open bay in the bottom seems like it's made to hold damaged mechs. Knock a few of the gun barrels off and add some kind of repair-type apendages and it would be perfect.

If anyone wants to do the template thing here are some of the Doga3 converted mechs from the website...

Doga3Bots.zip

Just decompress and then put the folder in DOGACGA->data->l3_samp->connection->human->robot folder

The rest should be good as gold.

Those look great. Very... Xenogears. Which, for those who don't know, is the best RPG of all time, the best mecha game of all time, the best anime-themed game of all time, and - quite coincidentally - also the best game of all time.

by number of people who've played it, the best would be tetris.

Link to Azorani shipset: here.

I'll see what I can do with the Namovans.
