    Had a catastrophe with KotB, I hacked in half a dozen cats, went look for a model, and...

    no cat?

    I coulda sworn I have seen them wandering around Hommlet (probably thinking of Tibby in Britian, but what the hey). Anyways, I'll be hornswaggled if I am letting Mr Fluffy, Sir Purrsalot, Marmalade and the rest get left out!

    So what can I use for a cat? Is there a dire tiger or summonable panther or something I am missing in the game?

    If it helps ted, I used a small wolf for the cat familiar, it doesn't look or sound quite right, but it's the closest model I could find (it's either the dog/wolf/jackel model or the leucrotta model).

    Shame on you guys; hunting about for strange pussy...
    :eek:_O:
    I think a shrunken & re-skinned Leucrotta might be the thing. As for cat noises, Zorn ought to be able to help with this. He's got a ready supply of feline actors. Frankly, I doubt whether or not anyone here would be able to tell him from a cat on the recordings, short of analyzing the waves or something.

    I should just head over to the Ultima pages and try to find Dr Cat.

    I was thinking of reskinning the leucrottas as horses (ok, not thinking THAT seriously, Cujo pointed out it was not the best idea) but yeah, I think a shrunken one of them would make a nice cat, all things considered.

    I wasn't thinking talking cats, but a realistic sounding purr, meow, caterwaul and hacking 'here comes a furball' cough would all make it into the game, if Zorn feels so inclined. Or I could just speed up a TIE fighter :)

    Ugh, lo-fi. :blegh:

    I must say, Zorn's recordings are very high-quality hi-fi. Aside from that, I may be able to turn up a hi-fi cat for you.

    Remember the golden rule of modding: if you can't do it well, don't do it at all. ;)

    And, remember the platinum rule of modding: if you can't do it well, don't jack someone elses stuff [without giving proper credit to the original author].

    @gaear: There were some recordings (should be hi-fi...don't know) I found that could be downloaded at a cost of one dollar per download.
    * Someone here, maybe even a modder, is most likely to have a current girlfriend who owns a cat.

    Not to worry; Zorn & I both have cats; I just don't have his system for capturing sound. What Max can't cover, Pyouaquet is sure to finish.
