What do you think of the new pony model?

I'd like to know what you all think of them when you've tried it please. I want to get rid of the old models in the next update if most of you are happy enough with the new models. Please vote in the poll and let me know!
This is just about the model changes (i.e. snouts, necks, and tail length) not the advanced skinning technique (which is here to stay).
I'll keep this running until I do the next major mod update probably, so I can get the best idea of what you all want.

And I'm probably not going to change the models either unless there is a massive backlash, I honestly didn't know if there would be or not, hence the poll.

Expand the "Skinning " section of the mod post, then "Advanced skinning technique". Or look at this picture:

a skin edit rooster would be great otherwise its okay...even i miss my glowing horn xD
What is a skin edit rooster?
And you never had a glowing horn in the first place, how can you miss something you never had?! Anyway, I still plan to add glowing horns one day, I just didn't have chance to include them in this update.

Yes, the gender and tail-length pixel work even if you use the classic skinning technique, so you can just add those to your current skins. In fact, I already did that for the male background ponies in the mod.

I remember asking on brohoof about necks and people went kinda ape shit.. So I expected people to hate it :/
Personally I love it! Although it's very subtle so I doubt anyone has a problem with it
Also them snouts, cuteness overload!
If you added ad.fly links I'd click them 10 times over at least!

Yes. But I want to see how it looks, I was thinking it should be more than just a different size, the legs might need to be relatively shorter than they are as well or something, to make it look right. Like the glowing horn, this is something for the distant and indeterminate future.

What do you aim to achieve by restating this, trolling me? Because that's super-unlikely to make me want to spend time making it happen any faster! I already said I want to do it at some point, I still want to do it at some point, it was on my to-do list, and it remains on my to-do list.

If you feel like you have to get rid of the old model for technical reasons though, I don't mind too much.

Keeping the old models doesn't help skinners who want to use large snouts, because they won't look right for people who have the new models enabled (that's a global setting rather than per-skin right now).

4 models of Ponies?
- old style models with classic skinning
- old style models with advanced skinning
- new style models with classic skinning
- new style models with advanced skinning
#27
Posted 06 March 2012 - 03:29 PM
Yeah I want to get rid of the old models because I have to maintain 4 different pony models right now, and if I could lose the old style models I'd only need to maintain 2 (one for the classic skinning technique and one for the advanced skinning technique). So it is a lot more donkey work (fnarr) updating the mod if I maintain the old models.

Ah. In that case, I have no objections.

That made me quite curious as well, so I couldn't resist mocking it up really quickly just to see how it looks and I thought I'd share it

I've found a bug! When in a minecart the neck disappearsThere is a new model for the ponies in Mine Little Pony 1.2. When you upgrade to Minecraft 1.2 and install the new version of Mine Little Pony you'll see the new models by default.

You may remember that a while ago I mentioned in-game that for me the bottom of ponies and the bottom of their tails was abnormally bright:

This wasn't really a problem up to now, it was a little odd but largely unnoticeable. However, when I updated, the same bug occurs with the snuzzles:

and that is noticeable.
I'm not sure if there's anything you can do here or if it's even worth fixing (I remember you saying that the bright bottoms only affected some people and it was down to my graphics card).
Other than that, the models look lovely.

But I do find it hard to edit the skins due to the sheer complexity of the new format.
It's probably just me though, I might need to get used to the new skin format.
But it's a really good addition, I really like it.

There is a program that makes the skinning process much easier :DI really like the new additions to the pony model, it makes it look more pony-like, and probably makes life easier for Skin-Makers.

Here's a quick color code guide for those using SkinEdit:
Pixel 0,0 = Pony Type
R247, G176, B64 = Earth
R138, G203, B238 = Pegasus
R208, G161, B226 = Unicorn
R254, G249, B252 = Alicorn
None = Non-pony skin
Pixel 0,1 = Tail Length
R67, G87, B68 = Stub
R73, G142, B136 = 1/4 Length
R83, G76, B117 = 1/2 Length
R137, G107, B127 = 3/4 Length
None = Full Length
Pixel 0,2 = Gender
R255, G255, B255 = Male (Colt, Stallion, Brony)
None = Female (Filly, Mare, Pony)
