Scale is hard to judge. We wanted it to feel like it had weight when it moved. Omniframes and THMPRs can be resized in engine so we can play with size differences. Omniframes are probably 1/3rd the height to start, then we'll experiment.

He stumbles a bit on the rough terrain and drops a knee. :) Might be a variant animation to the regular landing. You don't get into a THMPR, they are autonomous "pets"

Ill take a other look at the anims, but will wait until they are in game. In game can change a lot of things. Thanks for the feedback!

Updated the blog post to include the newly arrived THMPR landing animation:

Fillmore had actually fixed this a few weeks ago, but due to how busy I was with the updates and some technical issues on my side, it took until now to get it installed. Thank you, Filmore!

We have the animations for your THMPR mining companion. We also have our gameplay docs for your Omniframe in our DOUBLE Friday update! https://em8er.com/thmpr-animations/ https://em8er.com/omniframe-gameplay-systems/ Chief chat tomorrow about either of the two updates: anims or omniframe...

Hi, glad to answer that. The exe won't be available except to backers, but they can stream it or upload videos and screenshots. Future milestones are coming and will have new exes that will have better versions as we improve the game and build more features. We always want to feature the...

Most of you know I'm not into politically correct culture. The art is pin-up for pin-ups sake. The details we're taking into 3D modeling will be her geesuit, which is normally zipped up. Also, I like navel. Expect cheesecake here and there. Guys will get equal exposure. And, before you try, this...

New Friday update posted! https://em8er.com/steps-to-art-demo-update/

Glad you like the suit. Yes, she's unzipped it for this, but it's usually zipped up to the neck. As for her expression, wouldn't you be thrilled riding in a THMPR's hand on a new planet? But don't worry, it's not the game's tone. This is more of a pinup poster.

Fresh update! Warren Lou, the famous comic book artist, has finished the concept art for the female and the "geesuit" that the Gatestriders wear. Also, we are in full production on 3D printed THMPR busts now! https://em8er.com/update-new-concept-art-by-warren-lou-3d-prints-in-production/

I've had the Zortrax m200 printer for a year now. It's a great printer. The real issue is that the THMPR is a very complicated object to print with all of its overlapping and nested panels. Plus, the game model of the THMPR doesn't actually need to connect those panels to anything. So when you...

Yep, the THMPR has a lot of tris because its a very large object on screen. There is some inefficiency with internal mesh that we can probably optimize down the road. As for the extra rigging, the plates do not unfold. They may move or we may remove those bones if they don't add much to the...

Okay, I fixed the spelling errors you all pointed out. TY! https://em8er.com/lore-drop-em-8er/ If you see anything else, please let me know before this goes to print in the book!

A short update for this week! https://em8er.com/3d-printing-and-thmpr-update/

Thanks for all the fixes! That's why the draft is posted! I'll go fix em later today.

Hmmm, anybody know how to adjust scroll speed on website? Is that under HTML control?

Lore isn't for everyone. It's always subjective. Don't worry, you won't hurt my feelings if you don't "feel" it. :) I'm just glad to have gotten it out there for both Crixa and Em-8ER.

Hey everyone. The long history of humanity that lead up to Em-8ER is now posted on the blog: https://em8er.com/lore-drop-em-8er/ I'll be hosting a Chief Chat at 2pm PST on Discord tomorrow, Saturday the 25th. I hope to be on voice for this!

I found a rigger and an animator. Rigging of the THMPR will start next week. After the rigging is done, it will go to animation. we plan to do a walk cycle and one or two emotes for the demo that you can trigger in the art exe. 3D test model parts are being printed. I did polygon reduction and...
