Yeah, one of the old criticisms was that she looked manly, or just had a strangely wide face/jaw. The new revision looks far more feminine, but without that side view the tweaked face could look longer in comparison to the old revision. It doesn't seem to actually be longer, just tapered better (the narrowness changes the perspective).

I like to give helpful criticism, but I've got nothing. 100% satisfied with the accuracy to the original, as well as the incredible new detail. Very excited, and can't wait to play this game again with all this new technology and art.

Overall she looks very good, but I have the feeling the feet are a wee bit thin (compared to the overall body proportions).

Thanks for sharing it with us and please keep up the excellent work!

Just out of interest

Are there still going to be characters with old models walking around in Deus Ex?
If so will there be any effort to upgrade them post-release?

.

Yes, and no. There's way too many character models to try and remake all of them.

official line folks - final release will feature character pack 1

The installer will be patchable to future updates will only require a patch to install

Am I correct to assume that the official line will not say which characters specifically are included?

The official line from TNM is that HDTP will kick maximum ass.

FYI.

lol

Nooo it's no big secret - character pack is getting animated now by the wonderful Darren - it will include the following characters for your pleasure -

MJ12 trooper
Anna Navarra
JC Denton
Paul Denton
Nicolette Du Clare
Gunther Hermann
Bob Page
Walton Simons
NSF Trooper (if I can find him!)

I think that's it - seriously it's a massive list that - characters are very difficult!

If you haven't redone Tracer Tong, you suck.

Post by **metche_steele** » Tue Apr 15, 2008 3:15 pm

We suck

It would be nice to have tracer tong, maggie chow (we do have the model!) and manderley. Alas - wait till version 2 :p

Post by **Jonas** » Tue Apr 15, 2008 4:03 pm

Hahah do you really believe there'll be a version 2?

Three months ago you were about to commit ritual suicide, and now you're talking about version 2!

I think at one point, i was geared up to Texture maggie chow. I think i'd enjoy doing her , when i find the time

Cool asian dress patterning is always an attention-grabber
