Big Kitty Model Pack

Big Kitty Model Pack

Made by: Dan van Ohllus (aka Kuhneghetz)
Eversong Lynx and Druid Cat edits by: Cavman

Meow! Here are some big predator cats for use in your map.
In this pack you'll get:

- Panther
- Tiger
- White Tiger
- Lion Male
- Lion Female
- Eversong Lynx (edit by Cavman)
- Night Elf Druid Cat Form (edit by Cavman)
- Tauren Druid Cat Form (edit by Cavman)
- Sabertooth Cat (2 version, didn't bother add screenshots for them in this pack)

Models were modified from the Huntress model. Attack animation transferred from the Timber Wolf model. Even though the attack animation on these models is a bit odd, it's better than the attack animations from the old tiger models. And yes, I've made the custom textures (coloring, recoloring and stuff).

Cavman made some Wow-esque cat models using my cat models as base (which I permitted), and he wanted me to upload it so I can add it in my Big Kitty Modelpack.
So I many thanks to him for the lovely edits.

YOU MUST GIVE US CREDITS IF YOU USE THESE MODELS IN YOUR MAP!!!

Feel free to edit this model for your projects as long as you credit the respective owners for the models you based it from.

Enjoy! ;)

Directories:
Tiger.blp (for Tiger model)
Lion.blp (for Lion Male, Lion Female and Tauren Druid Cat models)
EversongLynx.blp (for the Eversong Lynx model)
DruidCat.blp (for the NE Druid cat model)
Panther and White Tiger use ingame textures.

Remove war3mapimported\ and restart World editor.

Disabled icons should be inserted into this path to work correctly:
ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtonsDisabled\*insert disabled icon here*

Note: There is already an icon for the White Tiger. It's the one used for Blizzard's Priestess of the Moon unit.

Hint: The Lioness model can also be used for Lion cub units.

MDX files can have any path.

UPDATE: Added three new cat models which were edited by Cavman.
UPDATE2: Added the Sabertoothed Cat models to the pack, though I haven't updated the screenshot.

The running animations are really poor on these. Not sure which anims you chose, but they sure don't seem to work.

Nice lions!
I know you don't accept requests but in this case I just have to give it a try because it's more like an edit. Could you make a white lion model? I've been looking for something like that for a while already but couldn't find it anywere.

Hello @Kuhneghetz I like this pack. I am currently developing a more detailed panther. If it finds positive feedback I wouldn't mind eventually making similar remakes of other cats in your pack (if not all). This may or may not involve using some custom textures that are part of the pack. Could I have your opinion on the matter? thanks

Below you will find attached a copy of the post of the first job of the series, the panther.
New panther. Same texture.
Imagined for situations requiring additional details, such as cinematic sequences.
In development.
