Due to Scarecrow modz on the Hive and the Scary Stories series being popularized all over the internet, I though I should add something from
Scary Stories to tell in the Dark: both from the
2019 film and the hard-covered
Scary Stories: Treasury itself, the latter part being
Scary Stories 3: More Tales to Chill Your Bones, where the story
Harold can be seen.
I have yet to combine all geosets making up "Harold" so he is animated properly, but the hanging Scarecrow is present.
Just be warned: do not mistreat Harold, or he will have his revenge!!
Ado credits to Blizzard for the original meshes and skins, and credits attributed to Alvin Schwartz (and the unknown writer(s) who inspired Harold), and credits Stephen Gammell for the hardcover's illustrations, and credits to the producers of CBS Films Inc. for amazing special effects and retelling of the story.
If there's anyone else who needs credits but I forgot to include,
please let me know.
UPDATE:
I have uploaded a new Mod featuring only in-game textures, by General Frank's request. The new image features mine and stein123's Orc Warlord (we're still working on him) walking past this new model of Harold the Scarecrow, out in the Cornfield at night.
For anyone using
View in 3D and wondering why this new Harold is wearing a green checkered shirt, it's not really green. I used the Replaceable ID 31 texture (which features the Lordaeron Summer Tree Wall skin) so the Team Color for the Doodad itself appears
White, because he wore a white/whitish checkered long-sleeved shirt
.
Speaking of Team Color, I've also included a TC version of Harold the Scarecrow, for gameplay entertainment.
Please note that I do not have Reforged and therefore lack the additional Team Colors in one of the images below. To digress, for those who want Harold to wear a green shirt, the TC version is the mod for you.
Update: I've recreated both the Texture and TC versions, so the file size is reduced. Credits ado to General Frank for the help. I also got the entire mod on each Texture Harold to disappear on Decay, as General Frank requested.
Updates are expected.
