This should work for Vanilla but I havent tested it.
This is the first unit I have made from scratch , by that I mean that I made the whole model and dident modify an existing model. the only thing I dident make is the dwarf , he pops his hesd out of the Tank on bored animation.
The Steam Tank is a strong siege weapon with good armor , it rises up on its frount forks and slams its spiked wheel into wall , buildings and othere siege weponds.
It also has a strong long ranged attack , it seems its greatest weakness is other siege weponds.
Im happy with how this unit turned out with two exceptions.
1. when ths cannon fires the shell comes out in more than one hight , I couldent change that , so I made the shell delay a second before it appears in the air , this helped a bit. in the end it looks pretty good but when it shoots hightest the shell is appearing just above the barrel.
2.I wanted to make the smoke come out directly above the boiler , however in order to do that I need to add attachpoints to the model, at this time it cant be done , but I have been informed that EmjeR is making a tool that will allow you to add attachpoints to a new model sooooo when he finishs it ill come back and update the unit , NO pressure EmjeR.
for now the smoke is only on when it moves, that helps hide the fact that its not coming out of the boiler.
I think I can fix both of the issues I have with this unit with EmjeR,s new tool so hopfully he will finish soon.
I hope you enjoy this and pls let me know what you think I plan to make a few more dwarven unites i still have many ideas , including a mechanical Titan. |

snif snif :( . still no raitings on either one of my new Dwarven units

I dont think you can make a unit that can walk on both land and water , the only unit that can cross both is an air unit , and if ita a air unit it can only be attacked by range weponds. a unit has to be classed as air, land or water to my knowledge there is no way to combine any two , I realy wish you could , it would give us moders alot more options. I have however changed the obstruction radius on a air unit so it cant fly over building , walls and other units but that still dident solve the problem with it only being attacked by ranged weaponds . if anyone knows how this might be done i would to hear it.
a hovercraft can still be made but it either wont be able to cross water or it would only be attackable by ranged units. and on your other question , im not totaly sure what you ment but walking trees are possable , infact they exist already as a god power , it wouldent be hard to make it a new unit.[Edited on 04/30/09 @ 06:17 PM]

What I meant by walking trees is that they have branch arms and an evil looking face, sure there is a god power but it doesnt look that good they atk with their roots and they don't have a face anyway it was just a concept, I'll rate soon I can, I got to go to school now.
BTW I'm thinking of starting to mod so where do I look to find all the tools/instructions.
{EDIT} when you have an atlantean unit like a murmillo it can turn into a murmillo hero so why dont you make it if your a crocodile you can turn into a water crocodile when ur at the edge of the land near the water?
Also can you make it simpiler to install onto aomtt? IM trying to make a custom aom so you dotn go online and im putting the mods i like on it but when i try put more than 1 of urs its really confusing how to install it i cant edit .dll files.[Edited on 05/03/09 @ 02:54 AM]

Ok first of I never really give ratings cus I cbf but this is such a good mod that I'll give it a shot
(CONCEPT/IDEA) The idea of a mechanical dwarfen steam tank as a seige weapon was brilliant. You noticed that there was only 4 dwarf units and made the dwarfs more intresting with your steam tank.
(TEXTURES/SKINS) The textures were very good and it suited the Steam Tank; I really suck with doing textures but when I see your mods compared to my mod I feel like I am a total noob.
(AUDIO/SOUNDS) The sounds were good, I don't know if you acctually did the sounds with your own voice or you just edited your voice to make it sound diffrent; GUNS DONT KILL PEOPLE I DO! HE HE my favourite sound file :)
(MODEL) When I saw the model it was smaller than I thought, I still think it should of been bigger.
(ANIMATIONS) The animations were awesome, instead of just the steam tank falling over and dying like a normal unit it blew up which was cool and the firing was nice how the gun moved up and then shot.
Additional Comments: Overall I think you deserve a 5/5 for your effort and producing a mod which looks really awesome.
(QUESTION) How long did it take you to make the mod?[Edited on 05/07/09 @ 04:11 AM]

thanks very much for taking the time to review my mod ,Im glad you liked it this is my third dwarven unit so if you havent seen them you may wanna check the others out as well , Dwarven Raider a dwarf on a falcon that throws a magic hammer and my Gyrocopter and by the way it still hasent been reviewed , hint hint lol , Im realy suprised by that in fact because I think the gyrocopter is one of my best mods to date .
I would say it took about two weeks to make this but im not realy sure I was making this and the Gyrocopter at the same time , as far as the sounds go i dident make them myself i downloaded them , however I am about to buy a voice morpher so i can make my own new sound sets. so keep an eye out because I plan to release more new units soon my dwarven deforester is almost done , well the model is but there is still alot more to do to it before i can post it. |

your correct in saying its either air water or land but
if you change the height to really low it can go over land and water and if its low enough cavalry and infantry units can attack it as well as archers |
