I created a new Yahoo Group to hold the Skopes based off of the work that RandomDays has been doing.
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Cyber_Burn_Freedom_Force_Skopes/
So far, there are two finished packs uploaded to the Group, the Egyptian Pack contains 7 different Skopes, and the Viking Pack has 6 different Skopes. These are all meant for the original Freedom Force game, and may need to be converted to work for FFvt3R.
These should work for Cannonfodder, but may hopefully be useful for Modders as well.
Can't wait to check these out! :thumbup:
Thanks Spyder, they're pretty much just simple body swaps with some of the extra animations removed to lower the file size.
The Arabian Pack has now been uploaded. It includes 8 Skopes.
These are for FF1 and may need to be converted to work with FFvt3R.
As always, if there are any issues with either the Skopes themselves, or the "Read_Me" files, please let me know so I can fix them immediately.
Uploaded the EVE_Nomad Pack. There was only 1 EVE_Nomad originally, but I altered the Hue of the Skin to give me 3. So the pack includes 3 Skopes, one with a whip, one with a spear, and one with a sword. Not totally happy with the version with the whip, so I may revisit it down the road.
Would you mind sharing some screenshots?
Yeah, I'll try to get to it sometime this week. Like I said, it's basically the stuff that RandomDays has been importing Skoped onto Meshes that have more appropriate animations, so the guys with swords and shields, or spears, or whatever, can actually use them in game. But I will definitely try to get at least a few pics up by the end of the week.
This is the EVE_Nomad Pack. The one with the Sword was Skoped onto the "Crusader_Gren" Mesh. The guy with the Spear was Skoped onto "Male_Basic_Staff", also from Grenadier, and the guy with the Whip was Skoped onto "Blacklash_Tvlite" from Tommyboy. The only reason I altered the Hue of the colors on the Skins was so that people could see a difference between characters to add at least a little variety. In the other packs, the characters are different enough to where I didn't have to do that. Also, like I said, I'm not really happy with the guy with the Whip, but I wanted to have at least three in the pack to release it.

Ent's mesh for the spearmen, of course! Great work, CB!
Thank you Benton, I'm trying to pick Meshes that have weapons similar to the weapons being used by RD's imports so that they could be used to their fullest. Plus I'm also removing all the "Fly" and "Hover" type animations to condense file size.
This group was a little more difficult since they didn't have weapons already attached to them, plus some of them were a bit too big for standard "Male_Basic" Meshes, so I had to improvise.

MID_Hero_1 - Skoped onto "Steel_BYD" by The_Beyonder.
Light_Cavalry_2 - Skoped onto "Male_Archer_Round" by The_Beyonder.
MID_Slinger - Skoped onto "Captain_Britain_w_Sword" by Grenadier.

MID_Worker_Forest_1 - Skoped onto "Demon_Gren" by Grenadier. The Axe is from "MID_worker_forest3" from RandomDays.
MID_Worker_Forest_2 - Skoped onto "Grim_Hogun" (Original) by Grenadier.
MID_Worker_Forest_3 - Skoped onto "Male_Basic_Staff_Gren" by Grenadier.
The weapons had to be moved around a bit to get some of them to work right, and other than the "MID_Worker_Forest_1", I think they turned out alright.
Portraits and "Read_Me" files are done, and they are ready for download.
Wow, really cool work here Cyber & Random :thumbup:
Thank you Windblown, but really, all credit goes to Random, he did all the hard work on these. I just did a little copying and pasting.
"Skoped_Aztecs" pack released today. The pack contains 7 Skopes based off of RandomDays awesome work. All are meant for :ff: and may need to be converted to work for :ffvstr:.

Aztec Archer – This is the original version released by RandomDays, all I did was slightly modify the provided Keyframes.
Aztec Horseman – Skoped onto "Entwaidamela_FX" by Grenadier.

Aztec Jaguar – Skoped onto "Crusader_Gren" by Grenadier.
Aztec Knight – Skoped onto "Crusader_Gren" by Grenadier.

Aztec Maceman – Skoped onto "Crusader_Gren" by Grenadier. This is one Skope with 3 different Skins.

Aztec Pikeman – Skoped onto "Crusader_Gren" by Grenadier. I really debated which mesh to use as a Base for this one, but the "Crusader_Gren" Mesh had both the Shield and the Cape, so it seemed the best choice.
Aztec Spearman – Skoped onto "Entwaidamela_FX" by Grenadier.
Can't wait to test these guys out! :thumbup:
Cool, let me know what you think about the Aztec Pikeman. If I need to, I can re-Skope it onto the "Entwaidamela_FX" Mesh. The Cape will be static, but it would have more appropriate Spear animations.
Also, since I've been renaming some animations, and removing others, if anyone happens to find any animation glitches in any of these Skopes, please let me know so I can make any required changes.
Actually, the Crusader_Gren mesh works really well for him.
He has a thrust attack (which is a must for spear-wielders) and sweeping movements with the shaft of the spear (which is awesome!).
EDIT: Oh yeah, I've already converted all of the meshes (as well as the Vikings and Egyptians), so if you'd like me to send them to you so that you could host them on your site (for convenience), I can most certainly do that :)
The conversion includes skin files all converted to .dds, all ghosting issues fixed, and, of course, a run through EZnifconvert :P

Cool, I'm glad the "Crusader_Gren" Mesh worked for the Pikeman, I was a bit hesitant with it.
As for the converted Meshes, I would love to have them, and be glad to host them as well.
Consider them sent :ph34r:

Check the "Updated Files" Section for an update to the "Greek_LongSwordsman". The File was updated by RandomDays to adjust the Shield.
Awesome!
Consider the converted updated mesh on its way! :ph34r:

Later today, I shall be sending you the Arabians. I thought that I completed them before, but apparently not :doh: :P
Not rush, I've been working on the Inca's, but I've been having issues with the weapons lining up correctly in the animations. I think I'm going to put them on hold (Unless someone really, really wants them), and move to the next group.
Skoped Polynesians based on RandomDays most excellent work is now available. The Pack contains 5 Skopes.

Courtesy of Spydermann93, the Arabians and Polynesians have been fully converted for :ffvstr:, and are available for download. Enjoy!
These are all pretty awesome! Can't believe I missed them the first time around.
Thank you DM, I think I actually have two more sets that I need to complete in order to finish RandomDays' series.
