Improvement of skirpy-kart

[rubberduck]

i started to improve the old skirpy-kart

at the moment without driver

[Totoplus62]

Good keep continue !
I want to add that, for 8.1: we REALLY should replace bad kart such as elephpant, mozilla, hexley. I don't understand why they are still there whereas there are lovely premium add-on kart such as Amanda, Minix or New evil tux.
Maybe you can improve karts that are currently in the game in the future ?

Godd, it's very good, Good Job

Mozilla is good and hard kart, elephant is basic but is very funny !

skirpy-kart has a driver now

20 skirpys

Wha, i like your improvment in this kart, Congratulations !

In this 0.8.1, Why not ?

[Ludsky]

You have upload Skirpy in Addons ? I would like test this kart

[rubberduck]

not yet but i will do it

[Ludsky]

not yet but i will do it

Ok, thanks, it looks good

[rubberduck]

now i am ready with modelling, now i will animate the kart

[rubberduck]

funny losing-animation planned: breaking horn

if playing losing animation, the horn breaks and skirpy puts the horn back to "normal" and then it breaks again and so on...

[Totoplus62]

Hey man that means you can work on animations
In the future (i don't think 0.8.1 ^^) we will need animation and voices: look at this: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=4003
Each voice = one animation IMHO (note that a character could also speak without moving and its contrary)

But we will need a list of locked character (Each character will be lot's of work) ; that's why i always says mozilla should be replace (-> his size is too big, he can't be interchangeable ! ) elephpant and puffy will also be a real problem...not hexley for example because in the future we will have to choose a kart in the existing one (Kart of emule, kart of pidgin with different characteristics).

Even if i understand we could like character such as mozilla, elephpant, puffy (because they are in the game since lot's of time... an attachment to them can exists )
Purely objectively and without jokking they are the worst character because of future technical problems: so we can't work on them QED.

Oh NO !!! Puffy Is good and animation same !!!!

I agree for Mozilla, it's dificult kart and elephant, the texture is medium bot the kart is funny !

i want to upload the kart next time, but there is a small problem before

i took the blend-file from the Media Repo
https://supertuxkart.svn.sourceforge.ne ... ts/skirpy/

but i don't know, who made this(because of licensing the kart)

there wasn't any license-file

what shoud i do now?

I also found Skirpy here, but that didn't help me more

http://supertuxkart.sourceforge.net/Characters


then i have a "bad" icon, it is not like others
if someone could improve it or could make a better icon, i have it here:

[sj04736]

http://supertuxkart.svn.sourceforge.net ... vision=345
This is where "Skirpy" enters TuxKart for the very first time, under a different name.

Based on the age of the original, it would have had to be GPL licensed. It's interesting to dig this far back into SVN, I don't recognize any of the committers. This is even before Hiker got involved.

Unless Auria or hiker say otherwise, I think it would be safe to put in the license that your kart is based on Skirpy, which was licensed under GPL and created by grumbel.

i make one the icon
how do you think ?

i made one just like this XD

I had an idea for the kart, something less like the other karts in the game.

[rubberduck]

i think, the icon is good, but not best

a question about licensing:

I don't know, who made the kart and which license it was, because in Media Repo there wasn't a license-file,

should i write, that i found the blend-file in Media Repo, or what should i write now??

[fraang]

i make one the icon
how do you think ?

skirpy-icon.png

Nice icon so far but i want to suggest a few changes.

[rubberduck]

the horns are really good, but:

>> the right eye should be a bit smaller
>> it is a bit "overlighted", make better shadows

[Ludsky]

It's the first time, I'm very impatient to test this kart !!!

When publish him ?

PS : You are very good Rubberduck

[rubberduck]

kart uploaded

[rubberduck]

in game the skirpy-kart is red for me, it shows "not approved", but on addonsite it doesn't show this
i tried to "apdate the addon-list in game", but that didn't work

and the src-files aren't approved yet

[Ludsky]

I addons your skirpy and is very good, perhaps change icon ? more small

Your animation when the skirpy win is strange.

[rubberduck]

the icon isn't the final version, i can't really do a better icon

it would be good,if someone could do this

and what should i change in the winning animation, is it the kind of animation, or how it moves??

[Ludsky]

For the winning animation, horns light of all colors. And skirpy stands on this kart and hello hand.

PS : Sorry my english is medium
