Chronicles of the Second War - Teaser II - YouTube

@Reaver faction dependent probably.

@deepstrasz I thought about that. We might have clans who don't have the ogre unit like the Shattered Hand clan.

@Reaver That makes sense.

@Reaver Maybe trolls will get become a separate "clan"?

@Trolldaeron Something like the elves from Quel Thalas? Maybe... Depends on the authors of this custom campaign on how they will integrate the Trolls in the Horde.

@deepstrasz I think one of the artists answered me saying that the trolls are faction dependent and the trailer just showed the progress of their campaign.

The Centaur females would make excellent female orcs if you could rig their upper half to a humanoid lower half.

@Wlarius I believe it would be too hard. One of the artists told me that it is better to glue models onto one skeleton.

@Trolldaeron The tools we use now are great for nice geo-merges, simple animation transfers and small changes. But to use them for anything more complex is frustratingly inefficient. People don't believe it, but a full day for frame to frame bone movements in X, Y, Z is how you do it with Reforged, and that's just to FIX animations. (Some lucky ones are just a few minutes or an hour of course)

This is why working with merges and textures is just the way to go.

Someone might say add some cloth to that model... well it's not a static SD model anymore. So is that request worth tedious 10+ hours of work just for 1 detail to look acceptable? Obviously not.


With all that being said... there still might be a female orc in progress xD

@Moonman Based on Succubus?
