IllidanDark.blp

This bundle is marked as high quality. It exceeds standards and is highly desirable.
This is the dark illidan. It also replaces the standard illidan texture. Recommendation to using this is to make a second illidan model which my other illidan transforms into as opposed to different animations.

Same credits to _END for help on the wrap

anyone who asks me how to copy the illidan model will be ignored. ive explained it too many times already. if people keep nagging me im liable to just remove the skins.

do you mean on the unwrap or on the model? the unwrap is weird if thats what you mean. with the pants the right side is actually the back, but on the torso the right side is the right side.

unwrap, its fine, and still great !!! just seemed a little strange

you import it into a map and if you import it to the proper path (the path i listed may be wrong . . .) with the right filename then the model will use the new skin instead of the default. there are instructions on using custom skins somewhere, i remember reading them when i was a newbie.

you should get war3 model editor and ladiks mpq editor. the mpq editor will allow you to extract models which you can look at with the model editor, and the model editor has all the paths listed under textures.

or convert the model to a txt(mdl) with a converter and just look at it in notepad for the path. but you just have to import it into the map editor, save your map, and then restart the program and the skin should show up.

to use both? just extract the illidan model, and reimport it with a new name after editing the mdl file to use a new skin. its really easy. you should be able to find a tutorial, or if you convert it to a mdl you should be able to fumble through it in notepad to make it work.. i may eventually make a new model, but that won't be right now. too much to do.

why doesn't this work?!?!? I import the FIRST skin you made, the normal one, and it works...now when I import THIS one, the Illidandark one, the Importer won't let me rename it to Illidan.blp

What is up with this, is there some trick I'm missing? I know that the metamorphosis illidan is the same model but with a special animation name, maybe it has something to do with that?

ok. ive said this at least 4 times already between here and the non-dark one. this is the last time. if you just import the skin, then it will replace the default one. if you want to use both, then you have to use a custom unit and a custom metamorphosis spell (or change the models listed in the defaults) and you need to have a second (slightly altered) copy of the illidan model - altered to use the other skin. If someone wants to make an all inclusive model of illidan using my skin to make this easier be my guest.

i Based it on the Wow one as much as possible, and it didn't have green glowing designs on the wings, so they're not gonna happen.

As for glowing weapons, as this is a reskin, adding particles isn't likely. If I make a new model that uses these then I'll definitely consider that Idea. however, I don't have time to do that right now.

Meh...

It's a nice model, but the runes are pretty blurry and the glaives are 2d... look at him sideways and they disappear, they don't have a back-side and theyre, well... flat. :eekani: Ruined it for me. 3/5
Plus, how do you make a second illidan model? as in, i want to find the illy model to copy it, change the skin, and then re-import. Help? :con:

edubugras: this is the dark illidan skin, as in after you use metamorphosis. which means you shouldnt be able to see all the details crisply, hence the glowing runes.

back side on the glaives? you mean that thin little edge? either way, youre complaining about blizzards model on this one, not my skin. course, im guessing you don't know the difference if youre making that comment.

to make a copy of the illidan model you need an mpq editor, such as ladik's. then you need somethin to convert it to n mdl from an mdx, and you need notepad. mess around, or look for turotials, you'll figure it out. it's damn easy.

----------------------------------------------------

Frostwhisper, this is driving me nuts. kill me now.

serioiusly though, someone please close this thread. maybe if people can't post any more they'll actually read my explanation instead of asking over and over.

close the other one too.
