loktar — Model Reviewer

I am glad to see you my friend! And especially as staff member. I was staff member too about 12 years ago haha!
Well, currently I am preparing for New Year, tonight it will be small party. What about you?

Just staying home alone I'm afraid :P

Anything new else?

Weird, doesn't work for me either when I click the link, but when I go there from the wowpedia page it does work. Updated the link in the post, should work now.

Thanks for the fix.

aww, that's so cute :D

Weird, don't even know what icon he's talking about :P

LOKTAR OGAR MY WARRIOR!
We will blast this virus once. But human stupidity.... hardly.... even my doom guard cannot get rid of that haha

Yeah, wish people would have some common sense xD

Common sense in 2020.... especially those new generations

lol xD

Well, you could talk to Frank about it. Since the policies changed... maybe it's not Substandard?

Ah, a re-review. Will have a look.

Thanks.

It seems like enabling "Precision" at any level messes it up, "Merge Identical Vertices", "Delete Unused Bones and Helpers" also messes it up, along with some other options. Sadly these are the options that reduces the most size.

There's a bug that sometimes causes one of the top-level bones/helpers to have its coordinates set to 0. Try finding it (if it that's what's happening) and copying back the coordinates from the unoptimized model.

omg -_-

Done! :D

Thanks.
I have a pastebin link with a template that I always copy in my reviews :D

Oh that's some good advice, I'll copy some stuff to pastebin next time I make a review.

thanks! i want to know how to add decay anims, and how to add team colour and transparency at the same time (like a ragged cape with holes, that has team color too), i just don't want to ask people for such simple requests and do them myself u_u

Hmm, don't really know how to do TC/transparency thing either :P Do you have an existing example of this?
I'll make one for the decay animations.

Here's the decay one: https://www.hiveworkshop.com/pastebin/328382618e198983481e611eca4d4a5321887/
it's a quite a bit longer than the dissipate one though ^^

No problem :D Didn't realize W98 still had such an active community :O

Well, anybody can also run a VM these days...

Thanks!

Taking a little break from WC3 stuff. Still have a WIP WC1 orc lumber mill I need to finish, and the model optimizer needs some bug fixes/new options.
How about you?

Yup, they're all made as classic models, not Reforged.
I probably won't be making those models. Still planning on finishing the WC1 tech tree though.

Nope :P maybe I'll add it in the future.

Noice.

an imposter :O:O

What kind of map?

It's like Key Stone from SC2, but in the warcraft universe and with many gameplay changes. Every race from every campaign gets it's own deck. This means that soon I'll need material for the wc1 units and your models are exactly what i need.

oh, sounds very cool! curious to see it in action

I'm planning on making it pretty soon, maybe this week, else next week :P
LordPerenoldeII is already hard at work at a WC2 campaign, check it out: https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/warcraft-2-the-remake.293076/
Maybe you can join him?
Don't know of any object data files anywhere, sorry :)

Heh, I tried contacting creators for both WC1 and WC2 remakes... and I haven't heard back from them in a while. Oh well, maybe I'll work on my own? Heh. Can't wait for more WC classic models :)
