Description:

This is my third serious skin for "UT 2004", and my first male skin. I made this because I used to have a Necris skin for the Romulus/Remus model called "Loque" (yeah, the infamous Necris Bot from the original "UT"). When I downloaded Flytag's version of "Loque" (for Wraith/Torch), I got rid of the older "Loque" I had. Unfortunately, I no longer had a Necris skin for Romulus/Remus as a result. So I made this skin to replace it. This is also my first skin with more than one face. One of the coolest things about the Romulus/Remus model is that you can alpha-mask the facemask and achieve a different look, since there's an actual FACE under there! In light of this, I made two faces for Loki, unmasked ("Loki") and masked ("Loki_Masked").

Psst!:

* If you have CTF4, it must be *AT LEAST* version 1.0.1.0 for the Green and Gold Team Colors in the "SM-Loki_4teams.utx" file to work properly in-game!

* If you're at least semi-familiar with Norse mythology, you probably know who Loki's namesake is. If not, you can learn more about him here: http://www.pantheon.org/articles/l/loki.html
=================================================================================================
Installation:

* Unzip the SM-Loki.upl and SM-LokiBio.int files into your System folder.

* Unzip the SM-Loki.utx file (and the SM-Loki_4teams.utx file if you want CTF4 compatibility) into your Textures folder.

Special Thanks:

* Kudos to Epic and Digital Extremes for making this 1337 game. (Heh-heh.)

* Also, Kudos to my Dad for his feedback and suggestions, and for just being a great guy. (Here's to ya, Dad! ^_~)

* Kudos to the great guys and gals at SkinCity's Forums, too! (http://forums.beyondunreal.com/forumdisplay.php?f=421)
=================================================================================================
Dedication:

* Since this is a Necris skin, I am dedicating it to the memory of Gene "FreekBoyG" Sprague, the author of the excellent Necris skins for "Unreal Tournament 2003". His bringing the Necris back to the "UT" series in "UT 2003" was a very awesome move which inspired other people to make Necris skins (particularly FlyTag and DeathChild), and his death was a tragic blow to the community. FreekBoyG, you are still missed to this day.

The only truly original parts of this skin are the line on his chest armor, the red buttons on his belt, leg straps, and leg armor, and the earring on his right (your left) ear. The rest is recolored, cut-'n'-pasted, and Clone Brushed stuff from a few of the skins that came with the game (and in this case, one that came with the original "UT"), and credit for the original skins goes to the people (whoever they are) who made them in the first place.

Thank you, and good night. ^_~
