The fiends are coming!!
The model is based off the BFME worg model, allowing us to reuse some animations. Alot of work has been put into it, so it looks nothing like the original model.
My job in this "operation", has been modeling and texturing the model, some animating, secondary bone influence rigging, and a bit balancing/bugfixing.
Stygs supplied the original worg model with a slightly modified texture, did the main part of the rigging, did the major part of the xml coding, and added all the sounds.
Like the fiend from TS, the main attack of the tiberium fiend is throwing a volley of shards off its back, impaling anything that stands in its way. In addition, the fiend also has a powerful bite attack that will be used against any infantry that comes into melee range. Like scrin units, the fiend will self-heal while in a tiberium field.
The Tiberium Fiend will be appearing in both our mods, but the way it will be appear in each of the mods may differ, and has not yet been completely worked out. More infromation will eventually be found by following the links to the mods below.
Stygs mod: Tiberium Wars Advanced (ModDB profile)
My mod: C&C 3: Retaliation (mod announcement thread)
The model is now more or less finished, and you will find a collection of screenshots below

. It's not very easy to explain, so we could perhaps upload a video some time... or you can just wait and see for yourself when it appears in one of the mods
