[DwarfZealot]

yeah we all do, chriz i can enter one with 2 but the second anim is on the demon hunter, but meh it sucks anyway

 

[Deleted member 126647]

You can enter both models, it's not against the rules.

 

[Kuhneghetz]

I hope someone will do the Moonwalk. X)

 

[Dionesiist]

Didn't quite like the other one so here's another round. (This could probably work for trolls since it's similar to their dance in WoW XD)

EDIT: Oh my, too fast!

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Yours are definitely very creative, what program are you using?

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

Nice animation Dio, how long did it take you to make?

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Let's see some activity gents!

 

[Pyritie]

I'm guessing that's part of the challenge.

 

[donut3.5]

Hey Chriz., these model's are bugged when importing to milkshape. Would it be alright if I made them importable by remaking the mesh?
I would try to keep the mesh as accurate to yours as possible (which shouldn't be too hard)
Also if I do, should I upload them here?
--donut3.5--

 

[RED BARON]

Well told I would enter so better do

As I am a milkeshape user too... I just made my own of a unanimted Paladin. Which means I deleted the mesh coursing trouble... but now it doesnt have TC / Heroglow, would that be a problem? Or is it allowed to do so?
Of course also have to add bones as milkimporter removes those..

Btw thanks donut for making that notice in the old tread.... else I would have missed this...

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Do what you can to make you able to enter. At this point I don't mind.

 

[RED BARON]

Okay I will...

 

[Deleted member 126647]

11 days left guys, someone submit something; if not, this will have been the first and final animating competition.

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

..For a long time to come at least.

A minimum of 3 submissions should get in I'd say.

 

[DwarfZealot]

Here is my final submission. I went with the 3rd one because i was to lazy to anim transfer the others.... which sucked. Chriz. could you make a gif of my anim?

Edit: There finally it wouldn't let me upload him cause it said i had him posted here even when i deleted the post he was uploaded in. Anyways i had to make another version of the model. here he is.

Edit: added gif, Thanks Chriz.

 

[RED BARON]

Dwarf you didnt post anything uh? Or do you refer to your old post?

Chriz mine will sure be comming...

 

[Pyritie]

We could always get an extension if there aren't enough entries.

 

[Dark Hunter1357]

Well i submited my work

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Make sure the submissions meet the criteria:

Animation(s) must show properly in game without rotation errors or anything to the effect.

Animation(s) should have decent timing.

Submissions should be uploaded in .mdx format and must use the appropriate in game textures, and include an in game screenshot of the model functioning properly.

So don't forget those in game shots people.

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Here's your gif. Include it in your submission post.

 

[frostwhisper]

lol that paladin sure is drunk...

 

[Dark Hunter1357]

Dark Hunter1357 - The animation isn't looking half bad at the moment, I will try to look into your problem when I find the time. For now just continue with the animation and don't worry about export.

I cant make an ingame screenshot, becouse i cant export it...

 

[RED BARON]

Is particle effects allowed?

 

[Deleted member 126647]

I suppose so, why not.

 

[donut3.5]

Yarr.. I forgot about this, I'm hoping to find time to do something.
--donut3.5--

 

[RED BARON]

I suppose so, why not.

Okay thanks

I was just unsure as it kinda is more model then anim..

 

[ColdStar]

Thought I'd give this one a shot. I'm very new at animating, this would be the third thing I've ever done! Anyway, thanks Chriz for putting this on, it's been alot of fun. Have a look and see what you think...can anyone say Hammer time

Cheers, CS

 

[RED BARON]

yet another question Chriz...

When you say rotation error in the anim you mean an error with the anim not the model right?

Because the anim I am currently making.... well due to limits in the wc3 model his arms goes a little thin when doing the anim... hope that would be okay.... you barely notice in wc3..

That's great, I like it a lot.

Error with the animation of bones and such, stretching is unavoidable at times.

 

[LordOglog]

Can I do one with weapons?

 

[Deleted member 126647]

I would really like you to make something with the unarmed models provided. Explain your idea and I'll see if I'll allow it.

 

[RED BARON]

Something went wrong with exporting.Damn.. but oh well I can maybe use it to show you mine idea with use of weapons, as I just found out the other was weaponless and that we should make without weapons...

Hmm cant get it to work... use link insted: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fltnesC1mB0


Gotta redo it, but shows promise....

 

[frostwhisper]

I like your idea, RB. But it still needs a lot of work...

 

[RED BARON]

I like your idea, RB. But it still needs a lot of work...

Ehh.... the real anim doesnt look like that.. as said it went wrong while exporting it.... which means I proably made some mistake with linear or so..

The real one was smootless.. although I have to redo it now.. as said..

but thanks for liking the idea... how ever you was able to see it though

Pole dancing shadow hunter?

 

[Pyritie]

But the shadow hunter is a guy...

 

[del_diablo]

But the shadow hunter is a guy...

There exists gay stripping?

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Fine, add a simple pole. It's basically a stationary prop anyway.

 

[Pyritie]

I might actually enter this. I'll see.

 

[Deleted member 126647]

5 days to do so.

 

[Pyritie]

Well if we don't get enough entries we could always get an extension... right?

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Don't count on it, but there might be the option. I won't extend due to laziness.

 

[Dark Hunter1357]

Will i be added to the poll, Chriz. ?

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Only if you get it exported and functional in game.

 

[Pyritie]

WIP.

God damn rigging the bloody thing was hard.

 

[Pyritie]

Final Submission

Oh my, a double post. What is this world coming to?

 

[DwarfZealot]

ummm.... they were pre rigged....

 

[RED BARON]

ummm.... they were pre rigged....

not for milkeshape users...

 

[Pyritie]

Yeah, not all of us have 3ds5.

Damn that rigging was a pain in the ass. And it still looks all funky.
