[eubz]

So, what did Eubz do on that model?

Me, all I do is to model the body part, the parabolic antennae above, the arms (with some modifications with my partner The Weird Human) and the unwrapping of UVs in the gmax... that's all... Have you seen our WIP? Its from my Gmax actually...

 

[The Weird Human]

We've still got all of today and tomorrow. It ends tomorrow night, not tonight



can you please attach it to your post instead of using the pastebin

I edited it now, thanks to the guys who told me how.

 

[HappyCockroach]

ok, so the contest ends 28 July 23:59 PM GMT?

me and my partner (4eNNightmare) will try very hard to finish our entry till then.

it's a zerg-like giant planet-infestator wasp that carries a big sack of larvas

EDIT: sorry pyritie if apparently our idea is too similar to yours, I started doing it quite a long time ago, just for you to know that we didn't rip it off from you and this is just a quite sad coincidence, but there's no actual big deal, they are anatomically different

 

[Pyritie]

I don't know if I'm gonna be able to add all of the super fancy animations that I would've liked to

I'll just go for the minimum ones required to finish this contest and then of course the loading/unloading ones since this is a transport unit or something

 

[eubz]

Goody, today's the deadline...

 

[Pyritie]

you mean tomorrow

 

[eubz]

Yes, I mean... Its the 28th of July here in the Philippines... I forgot that our time in the hive is GMT...

Shaman and Bob aka Team Anal Probe

presents
THE PENETRATOR

A powerful support cruiser aptly named for its ability to penetrate the defenses of virtually any instillation. With the ability to warp in and out of space-time, it can literally enter a battle (or a modeling contest) out of nowhere, catching the enemy completely by surprise.

I highly recommend testing this ingame, or at least in magos so you can appreciate the magical warp and death animations.

Bob: Mesh, Wrap
Shaman: Texture, Animations, Particles

Moar

Ingame

WIPS

 

[Mr. Bob]

Personally, I think our first version was better. The rainbows and flowers really brought it to life in a crisp and realistic way!

Agreed, but I thought I'd give the other contestants a chance, you know?

 

[Mr. Bob]

I guess. Too bad we missed our chance to pass with "flying colors."

...get it?

 

[Skycraft]

That looks cool.

Nope

 

[-Peper-]

Noooooo! Bring nyan back!!

what,but the theme was spacecraft,btw if you name it nyan ship, then its related to space..

 

[Pyritie]

It looks like a shoe.

 

[Deolrin]

@shaman and Bob - It looks AWESOME, but you should seriously make it hover up and down(With a slight tilt, like the Diamondback in SC2) or something in the stand\walk\attack animations. It looks too stiff at the moment.
Though, the warp\death animations are SERIOUSLY epic, and the particles are amazing! Good job on that.

 

[Pyritie]

those texture animations on the warp in/out are seriously awesome though

(also kinda unrelated but I reinstalled windows on my main partition (WC3's on a different one) and now magos doesn't know where WC3 is. How to fix?)

 

[Deolrin]

Just put a copy of all of the .MPQ folders in your Magos folder, or extract Magos in your WC3 folder.

Right, because in space, frigates totally randomly sway.

Because in space, you are "hovering."

Totally. :3

Totally. :3

In space, explosions also aren't as nearly as exciting and everything is silent. Does that mean space models should have no explosions or death sounds? No, because that would be boring as fuck and wouldn't really fit in.

 

[-Peper-]

Yeah, because space is vacuum.

I agree, make it rattle up and down uncontrollably like it's trying to shake itself apart.... hell, just give it the steamtank stand animation so itll _mr.bob up and down real nice... hrmm while you're at it, just give it the steamtank death animation too, it would fit better ingame that way, the death anim now is all like "lol drama queen asplosion" lololo!!!!1!111! i gief it 2/5 for cansept because i dont like it without no rainbows cloorfullness. and 3/5 for mr.bob but 1/5 for shaman and 2.3/6 for the mesh with a 12/49 for animationses. great job everyone, keep up teh good work. i hope i can enter this contest soon too. i have my entry done in a week

 

[Pyritie]

so yeah here's The_Silent and me's entry

ZERG FLYING LEECHY THINGY

click for animations









ran out of time so I couldn't do all of the fancy animations I wanted, plus it turns out you can't do bone scaling in WC3 very well, so I couldn't do a sort of "gulping" animation. Dang

anyway it has particles and stuff, just open it in magos or ingame or something

there's also a 256x256 texture if you want that instead, just remove the "256" from the filename

 

[HappyCockroach]

ZERG FLYING LEECHY THINGY

awesome!
the animations remind me of some pokemon way of motion (they're nice nevertheless)

I hope we can finish ours in time, I'm done with the mesh and the wrap, 4eNN's almost done with the texture, I just need to give it 2 more anims... id better stop posting and hurry

edit: WE'RE ALMOST DONE PLEASE WAIT A LITTLE BIT, THANK YOU

 

[HappyCockroach]

Our Entry

4eNNightmare and HappyCockroach presents:
Demiliphera

A colossal zerg spawn that transports a sack of eggs of zergish species. The proposal of the unit is a mechanism of planet colonizing/installation that the zerg alien faction could count on. Its monstrous shape is product of sucessive mutations and biological engineering. The giant and repulsive abdominal mass is supposed to carry resources for travelling far in the emptiness of space.
​

Roles:

• 4eNNightmare: Concept and Texture
• HappyCockroach: Concept, Mesh, Wrap and Animations

Technical note: the model was re-uploaded with compressed textures, the others were too heavy. The edit on the post is due to this, a visibility bug and the description that's been added/improved.

 

[eubz]

... and the deadline has come at last...
So, edited:

 

[HappyCockroach]

Remember that we're talking about spacecraft here...

 

[eubz]

Sorry dude, you're correct in that sense...

 

[HappyCockroach]

Sorry dude, you're correct in that sense...

Spacecraft as it is... and the deadline has come at last...

silliness apart, we decided to take the theme more openly. The zergs don't use mechanical vessels to travel around the space. I don't think me and 4eNN are out of our minds making something organic, even because Pyritie/The_Silent did the same, so 4 of the 10 participants worked on organic stuff, zerg, space units.

 

[-Peper-]

So, poll?

 

[The Weird Human]

Hmmm...... from what i could see, it seems the Mechanical Space ships lost to the PWNING AWESOMENESS OF ORGANIC ALIEN-LIKE ZERG ABOMINATIONS WHICH ARE EPIC!!!

 

[Xian]

we need a poll so we can vote now

Be patient, I think the poll is coming veeeeery soon...

Is this thread closed already? Seems everybody's too busy waiting for the poll...

Edit:
The deadline passed still no judges, maybe that's why the poll can't be posted yet...
