(more to come I wait for feedback)

Please tell us the contents in detail.

Well I have to say I like the Slig Air Corps. That one looks rather interesting. When did you take these?

***Wil*** · #7 03-09-2003, 02:00 PM

The Slig Air Corps looks really interstion...or at least it might do. I can't actually wrap my head around it. I see two nacelle-type object connected to hub with what looks like a facial design, and a pair of sort-of flaps hanging below that. Interesting, if not clear. Can't make out the thing behind it either. However, I noticed that you have a flat clock on the wall above your door.

I can't see the Skeeter very well either. I can see four thin wings in the central picture that Lorne's pointing to, and is that a crocodilian face I see to its left?

Ah well, they may not be great, but at least we're all grateful (right fellow forum-frequenters?) for them. It's got me a big more interested in what Oddworld 4 may turn out like..

***Xavier*** · #8 03-09-2003, 02:42 PM

I made a zoom on a Skeeters
I hope it can help you

***Xavier*** · #9 03-09-2003, 02:54 PM

a couple of angry mudokons...

***Xavier*** · #10 03-09-2003, 02:58 PM

and finnally, photo of a TV screen showing a film of a PC screen (I hope you will recognise something)

It's Sam's face

intern · #11 03-09-2003, 04:05 PM

How did you get these, Xavier?
(has anyone noticed that Lorne kind of looks like Jonathan from KoRn?)

***Xavier*** · #12 03-09-2003, 04:12 PM

well it was on the videogame channel Gamepower (exclusive to belgium) I recorded it a year ago (more or less)
and now we have a new digital camera so I took some shoots for the community

Oddsville · #13 03-11-2003, 06:43 PM

I really appreciate you doing this Xav, this excites me alot.

To Max, well I enlarged the image of the Slig Air Corps and from what I could see the thing in the back ground is a model of the old Slig Helecopter pants (the ones in AE) and the main object in the front resembels old fighter planes back before jets came to be....kinda like the Red Barron's airplane.

TheKhanzumer · #14 03-12-2003, 01:11 AM

Skeeters supposedly use gas bags to fly right? So are those four unmistakalble wings just for directional purposes?

Cool pics Xav. It is always fun to see something new.

***Xavier*** · #15 03-12-2003, 10:56 AM

an info about skeeters:
they love pic in mudokonds heads (in the video lorne is acting the reactions of the mud and it's kinda funny)
I'm glad you guys liked it, if you want I can try to make others

Oddsville · #16 03-12-2003, 03:09 PM

Thats interesting, I never knew Skeeters liked to pick at a Muds head. Thanks for that info Xav!

Aside from that in this video that you have do they mention anything really interesting (such as the Skeeter info) that hasn't really been made public yet?

Mojo · #17 03-12-2003, 03:16 PM

You know, I don't think those are HeliPants.. If you look better, you can see some sort of pod with a droplet-like hole in it (holding a Slig?) on the right, and on that thing, there's no rotor, and on the other side of the craft, there's a similar pod, with the same hole, but only with some rotors above it... I don't know if LL hates symmetry, but if it is supposed to be symmetric, then I don't think they are HeliPants...

***Xavier*** · #18 03-12-2003, 03:30 PM

well hummm lets remember...
no I don't think so, the skeeter was the only realy intresting part.

some not intresting stuff:
we will see snoozers again in CG in a next game
sam is definatly coming (wow that was new!)
they want to make bigger things (like CG with the 100 angry muds walking)
there are HUGE factories coming! RuptureFarms is realy small compared to it.

well that's it, it was something for non Oddworld experts

Edit: I made a second pic of the Slig Air Corps

Oddsville · #19 03-12-2003, 03:30 PM

Still Xav I really appreciate you taking the time to do this. Twas very nice of ya. Anyways, I really would like to see the hundred angry mud thing, and if they say that RuptureFarms was small then I can't imagine how big some other places are!

***Xavier*** · #20 03-12-2003, 03:35 PM

well about the 100 mud thing we only saw the movie wich I posted a picture some posts above, nothing more.

Is the videogame channel Gamepower's program you saw "The Game Room" ?

:

Monty Clark of Exodus Entertainment then took over the program with parts of the demo reel for their over the top TV project called "The Game Room"...man this was something! Their beautifully designed and rendered 3D characters are the stars of this Computer and Console game oriented TV show. The high point for me was watching Lorne Lanning and the other inhabitants of Oddworld interact with the 3D host, Jack, for some really clever bits while delivering a tremendous amount of insight into the philosophy and history of the Odyssey project.

Monty Clark is one of IGDA Miami/South Florida Chapter Coordinators/Advisors

If Oddsville live in the South Florida area, Oddsville can meet them.

paramiteabe · #22 05-13-2003, 11:16 AM

I don't know about you but I recognized something interesting in that Slig Air Corps pictures. To me it sort of looks like a flying Big Bro. Aint that something?

***Xavier*** · #23 05-13-2003, 04:45 PM

nope... it was on JimTV something 100% belgian, sorry atusiya@

Oddsville · #24 05-13-2003, 05:47 PM

As it just turns out, I do live in South Florida! Thanks for the info atusiya! *jumps into car and drives aimlessly into the unknown...*

Sekto Springs · #25 05-14-2003, 06:49 PM

hey guys i messed with the skeeter pic a bit and found a few things...i inhanced so u can see it a bit better and i added some black lines and a green box to point out stuff.....what we thot was originally a crocadillian face was actually the eyes...you'll see

Dipstikk · #26 05-14-2003, 08:25 PM

Hmmm.

You know, the image looks edited. or maybe it's just me.

***Xavier*** · #27 05-15-2003, 02:15 PM

I have that impression too

Sekto Springs · #28 05-15-2003, 05:40 PM

i did edit it....like i said i added lines and touched it up on sharpness, contrast, color, and brightness

ps: hey xav, what color were they (skeeters) i wanna draw a pic

***Xavier*** · #29 05-15-2003, 05:46 PM

I have no Idea, it was only a prod art in black and white...

Sekto Springs · #30 05-15-2003, 06:29 PM
