Now it's no secret that I learn from Riot when comes to texturing too. Because I both play their game and also use their skin because i like how their look.

I apply the same thing to the warcraft model so if 99% you always see like uther's hammer, his head and the cape then you can go ham on detail. Otherwise you can go less somewhere else and would not affect you much.
Not sure why you closed the contest without giving any medals? Pretty sure I have competed in 2-entry contests before, where medals were still given.

Regardless of that though, not sure how this was open for misinterpretation, where I specifically stated that if my resignation leads to the contest being forfeit, I would not resign after all, and would continue being a contestant.

I was never out, if the alternative was closing the contest without any rewards to the other two contestants.

I agree - I don't think it was Feelsgood's whole intention to null the contest and make some big statement. I do think that it was a little bit confusing, however, so I don't fault anyone for seeing/thinking that was the case. I, personally, had expected to not receive anything for the contest, however, I do find it to be simple and fair to dole out the medals to participants and call it a day.

The way I see it it doesn't seem like we're going to find any more judges, and at this point I think everyone just wants a conclusion.
You should either just post the results based in the public votes or the votes and my scores, whatever is deemed most fair.

For future reference, I think we should make sure we have enough judges for the contest before we host it.

Sure thing, will do it tomorrow. That's quite surprising on Bride's side though - Table is a very popular resource and backward compatibility should be kept :)
By the way - be sure to check my resources on github [1] as this is where I update them first.

@nelmvn Bribe already provided backwards-compatibility snippet for Table pre-v6 <-> v6 [1]. I believe he should have combined all of that with his current table by default to avoid problems and declare TABLE_VERSION global on top of that so the clients can negotiate the interface. I've checked the snippet on my end and it suffices. Could you do the same on yours?

This one has tankers which go in and out and has its own oil resource icon and amount not shared with gold.
@LordPerenolde II in case you want to update your campaigns with this. Just saying.
Archille, :cgrin:

Making Warcraft maps is most fun when you're in that middle section -- where the groundwork has been laid but there's still a world of possibility to branch off it.

Maybe you'd like to add more feedback and share your experience than amazing 5/5, please?

Edited the post, added some stuff to some of the points. Sorry. Got more coming when I re-read. Thanks for considering the feedback.

Naw, thanks for giving the feedback! My original thread never got much of a response (at least not in terms of feedback), so I'm glad to get some opinions! Can't make a fun game without proper feedback.
Eyy cupcatman. Could/would you try differentiating the faces and hair colours for the gals? They seem to be using the same head.

But sticking jaina/shandris face to model is BASED or what do you exactly suggest?

Just for diversity's sake, unless you want a character who can be either of those roles/professions.

Ah that? Forgot that when you wanna rate something with a comment, it'll appear in the thread. I am a bit of a rusty coot, after all)
Hello, really love your models for the Fel Orc barracks and bestiary. Can you please tell me what program have you used to make the model then the icon and how did you learn to make such cool things?
Hello, I believe that it is amazing all the models you have done so far. I want to become one day as good as you are at making models but I don't know where to start. Can you please be kind enough to tell me what programs do you use to make the models and afterwards how do you make the icons? Do you also have any tips on how to get started? Like how to learn :gg:

So as working programs I only use Reteras Model Studio here from Hiveworkshop and to edit textures and icons I use a program called GIMP.
This is a free photo editing program that is really, really good.

And for learning? There are a few useful tutorials here on the Hive, which relate to editing "non-reforged" models, but are still up to date and otherwise:
If you have a problem, ask someone who also uploads models here and who may seem competent for your problem... asking doesn't cost anything and doesn't hurt anyone. Just be friendly. 🙂

I'll just give you a tip:Don't ask me about technical things.I'm incredibly bad at explaining... and sometimes I don't know how to get certain things done. I just do things. 😅

Your feeling is simply important.
Make sure your colors all match each other, that your model looks like it naturally belongs together. So sometimes simply changing a few shoulder pads and a helmet to a unit just isn't enough.
The proportions must be right, the materials should have the same colors, make sure that the parts you use do not slip too much into each other (disturbingly).
And:
Don't think that good models are made just like that in a few minutes/hours.
Some models take days to perfect.
And during this time it can happen that you completely reject a model, change it or lose the desire to continue working on it.
I have a bunch of models here on the PC that are waiting to be completed.
Save them and work on them again when you feel like it.
In the end it is a hobby and not a job. 🙂
Hey! I accidentally saw that you were making Halloween themed map in October. Sadly I was not available back then to join discussion, I got tons of Halloween assets in my thread.
