shamanyouranus: Better, but you still need to reduce the particle count for the stand and birth animations. Try to get it less than 100, less than 70 would be even better. Reduce the life span of the particles to help lower the particle count a bit.

Pyritie: I think you could lower the particle count a lot more, maybe even down to 50. The key is to use larger particles since really small ones aren't very visible ingame. Also uncheck the "Tail" box on all of your particles.

DonDustin: seems to be fixed

1. change the internal name of the model. It can be done with Magos model editor under: Edit-->Model properties
2. reduce the particle count. 216 are too many for a missile. Try to lower it to around 100.
3. maybe some more changes as they are pretty basic right now. Maybe a more creative death animation.

1. That's ok, thanks =)
2. What's the problem about too many particles count ?
3. For the death animation, I will search another idea but if you could give me idea it will be super please =)

Thanks for your comment.

Too many particles is like too many polies. May cause lag. And a missile, for appearing overtime, shouldn't have a high particle count.

Haistrah · Jul 11, 2009

Particles count :
birth&stand animations : 105 per second.
death animation : 60 per second.

I changed the death animation. Now the particles go down with a tail (length : 1).

Please try it ingame cause of the tail isn't showed in War3 Model Editor.

And post comments and say how I can improve the model.

Thanks guys =)

looks almost like magic missile from diablo 3, just has to be a bit more purplish

Haistrah · Jul 12, 2009

Thanks for your comment and for +rep =)

Trillium :
-=°*> This model is more a lightning missile than a arcane massile. But I will make a arcane missile with blue&purple.

Post comments and say me how improve the model please =)

Trillium · Jul 12, 2009

maybe make it leave a trail of small lightning zaps (like in Purge's buff part) if that's not too complicated. it will give it a more electric look

Haistrah · Jul 12, 2009

I want it stays multipurpose but maybe I will upload another model more electrish and one more arcanish.

Potluck · Jul 12, 2009

looks like a really good missile effect nice job.

Na_Dann_Ma_GoGo · Jul 12, 2009

Nice model there.
But imo the particles looked rather snowy when tested as a projectile.

Haistrah · Jul 12, 2009

I'm happy my model is 100% multipurpose.
Maybe my model will be a fireball? xD

Licheus · Jul 12, 2009

This one is great. Very useful indeed. Please continue to make more in this kind.
