  • Hello! All right? How are you going with the Warhammer projects? Sorry for the inconvenience, the order queue should be large :D

    HerrDave
    Been working on a basic Orc model to build off of and finishing off the Reikland Halberdier / potentially swordsman.

    Hhmm.. You have German,French and English Machine gun soldiers? i can't found it... :(
    Wark
    Wark
    OOoo, more Reiklanders in the future, eh? I'm interested in those.
    HerrDave, hope everything is well. Ive been doing some testing on my map and all your units models are working and incredible! however the Stonehurler has one minor problem, his missile is super small, it has shrunk a lot. Any idea how to Fix?

    Does he throw normal stones for you? Which base model do you use?
    HerrDave
    HerrDave
    I use the Orc Demolisher as a base unit, beyond that I didn't mess with any values that would alter the size of the projectile.
    Wark
    Wark
    I think there's an option in the object editor for each unit under "Art" that scales missiles or not. By default, that's set to true. Try setting it to false, and see how the missile looks.
    man this is so depressing hive without media, can't look up when you make some awesome stuff :(
    HerrDave
    HerrDave
    I didn't know it was gone until I read your comment, that sucks! D:
    Hey HerrDave i like your WW1 models alot, i'm trying to download your MG team model but i cant find it anywhere, can you please give me a link to it? i really need it.
    HerrDave
    HerrDave
    Unfortunately the MG team was deleted - I don't have the model anymore :(

    If I could make models right now, I'd look into maybe making a new MG team - but with MdlVis being inoperable - we're both pretty screwed :c
    SonsOfSami
    SonsOfSami
    Ok, thanks anyway
    With the new WC3 update having busted MdlVis, ALL of my projects have been stopped - until I get my hands on the old .mpq or someone shares theirs, I am without the tools to continue :(
    Mechanical Man
    Mechanical Man
    yes, but which mpq exactly he wants to be shared?
    Ether
    Ether
    I have an old mpq backed up since 2016. Would like me to share it via googledrive or mega.nz? :)
    HerrDave
    HerrDave
    I need a copy of--
    -War3.mpq
    -War3x.mpq
    -War3xLocal.mpq
    -War3xPatch.mpq

    Thanks for the offers :)

    Right now I've got a zeppelin, a few (annoyingly buggy) biplanes, and an Erhardt armoured car - but I'm not thrilled with the simplistic animations they've got.

    One problem I'm having is getting the planes and blimp to not disappear when the origin.ref touches the borders of the screen (causing the whole model to disappear, even if you could see the blimp/plane beforehand)

    Quite unfortunate, HerrDave do you have a barracks model planned?
    Hi, dude, how are you? Are you planning to make light cavalry from the Renaissance era? A cavalry without much protection, equipped with a wooden spear, with the tape at the tip of the weapon, a Renaissance style helmet, etc? If you do not want to, when you have time, could you do this work for me, please? but only when you have the time and inspiration, I do not want to bother you and I'm sorry for my horrible English
    HerrDave
    HerrDave
    If you've some concept art lying around, that'd help a great deal
    BrazilEmperor

    Any soldier on a horse, in the style of yours "Warhammer" models, is already perfect to me.. what do you think of the winged hussars? only without wings, and with some embellishments on the helmet, a ribbon on the spear's end, anything for me is enough ,my comrade... I'm working on a map of the Renaissance, I liked you Handgunner Greatsword and Blazing Sun, I heard you intend to make cavalry of gunslingers and halberdiers, which for me is perfect for my map, but I need a light cavalry, and only your Design style works to me.
    Mechanical Man
    Mechanical Man
    whats wrong with the wings? And a reason I didn't add ribbons is I didn't want to bother with animating it
    Hail HerrDave! You wouldn't happen to have any Great Cannons collecting dust in your armory or Nasty Skulker prisoners, would ya?
    Wark
    Wark
    Those are some fancy cannons that are well and horizontal. No problem, HerrDave. I've found some nice skulker models, too
    HerrDave
    HerrDave
    I have no idea what a skulker is ( ;~;)
    Hazop
    Hazop
    Mechanical Man those 2 models are my saving grace, Just the models I always needed!!!
    May I ask you one more thing? this one is quite simple, I just need an square plain model (much like an empty ubersplat) that allows alpha channel. It is meant to be used as a base ubersplat to add things to the terrain (as a doodad). I already tried using the GoldMineCircle model but it is additive and the SmokeSmudge model but it has particles and is multiplicative in alpha.
    LOVE YOU HERR!!!

    LOL.
    You rat Darkfang, at least give him some rep for his work.
    HerrDave
    HerrDave
    xD
    No worries :)
    Darkfang
    Darkfang
    sorry XD since I don't give that much importance to rep Im usually not spreading it.
    I'm a big fan of Dark Souls. Did you make the Dark Souls Model. I would like to see Solaire Warcraft Model style.
    HerrDave
    HerrDave
    Yep, I made the model - though it's not based on Dark Souls.
    Sure I can make a Solaire model for ya :)
    You seem quite busy from the below comment, HerrDave. So, I just want to make an inquiry:
    I've been using a large number of your models, and I've been leaning towards starting a new project to bring the Warhammer universe into Warcraft 3. I've been thinking about adding some DnD mechanics to the mix (not your standard melee unit stats, possibly use squad mechanics?), and styling the map layout loosely based on the Empire, World's Edge mountains, the Northern Wastes, Bretonnia, Tilea, and Ulthuan when 480 x 480 maps come out.

    I was wondering, do you plan on making more models like Empire flagellants, skaven, chaos warriors, or good ol' dwarven great cannons?
    Wark
    Wark
    Alright, thank you for the heads up. I like your style, and wanted to use your models exclusively. In the meantime, I'll use standard wc3 models as place holders.

    Of course, this project will not be for a long while. On that note, I do feel some of your WotR models can be repurposed for the warhammer universe (that dwarven axe thrower looks sort of like a slayer, just missing the mohawk)
    Mechanical Man

    Wark
    Wark
    Interesting, those may work. Although I'll need to figure out how to replace that pickaxe with a club or something
    Hey HerrDave! :) I'm a really big fan of your WotR models, been a game I've played as a child a lot, and it was just now that I noticed you did recreate some of them here for Warcraft in splendid quality.
    You inspired me, and also because I've came back to this site for the 1.29 Patch, to make a new map with them, and I'm loving it!
    Are you working on any other models right now, and is there a way to get in contact with you to get some previews of them? I'd really love to follow your progress on them!
    Seen the picture of the spider that you posted some weeks ago, how does it go with that one?

    Anyhow, sorry for the long message and continue your awesome work. You really inspired me with it. Greetings Korialstrasz

    The guy who helped me animate the spider - which at present is the only spider in WC3 history that stands tall
    Hazop
    Hazop
    No I obv I know who he is :)
    also (spiderssss ._. KILL IT WITH FIRR)

    How are the skins/models?
    HerrDave
    HerrDave
    Haven't started them yet, I've been busy with preparations for church, sorry
    Hazop
    Hazop
    Ah, Its fine, I am still working on units, customish icons, models and mechanics anyways
    Herrdave,
    Your Lotr rings terrain looks amazing especially Mordor, that is incredible! I played War of the Ring when I was younger and those models are dope! I have been attempting a Lord of the Rings map myself but yours far surpasses mine, what kind of map is it going to be?
    HerrDave
    HerrDave
    It will play kind of like a mix of the Original WotR, Azeroth Wars, and the LotR maps of old (on the ashenvale tileset, those ones)
    Nice job with Lord of the Ring models.
    I think you are planning to create Barlog of Sauron. huh?
    HerrDave
    HerrDave
    I'm working on it, I've got War of the Ring on my 2nd monitor and I'm trying to wrap my head around how they made the Balrog's head look the way it does.
    Hello Comrade Dave! I know its a hobby (your modelling) but I would like to know what's the progress on the reiksguard/halberd (if there is any?) Sorry to bother just curious.
    HerrDave

    models looks awesome but I just wanted to know whats that pauldron on his right shoulder? the Gold part. And I thought maybe a tiny bit more face variation, perhaps a beard? You can even use the same anims as used for your elf warden just +Defend anims. The model looks lovley. Otherwise the model looks great and I cant wait to use it!
    Hi. Iam New To The Hive And Warcraft Models Import. I like YOUR Models SO Much But I Dont Know How To Import Models With Alternate Moves Or skins. Can U Teach Me Please ?
    HerrDave
    HerrDave
    Open the unit in the Object Editor in the World Editor
    Find "Art - Required Animation Names"
    Open > Add String > [alternate] (without brackets)
    Ok > Close
    Now the unit should be using it's alternate appearance and animations :)

    Thank U So Much
    Hello once again.
    Unfortunately I neglected to download your beautiful reikland handgunner model when it hit the shelves. I for one think the morion looked better since it matches the helmet of the swordsman (they look uniform when fielded in the same army that way).
    Could you send me the original morion version or post it somewhere for download please? :3
    Hi Dave,i am a fan of your unit models ever since the Templar and Wrath Of The Kaiser models and i hope you will be making more models such as Warhammer and Lord Of The Rings
