Edited chest

[Amigurumi]

Hey, does someone have time to edit the warcraft 3 chest model? (the model of the items).

Here an image, which animations it should have:

Chest request

Stand - the chest is closed
No animations needed.

Stand alternate - the chest is open, but without the gold in it
No animations needed.

Death - the chest opens
Maybe a small animation, where the chest opens (not instantly)

how it should look like

It should look like the picture above -> so they have a similarity

[model by Ribenamania]

would be great if someone could do this.
of course +rep and credits

Why don't you use this model?

It even has atachment points.

I know, it's great, but I want to use it with this: Mimic
and so it have to look like the same...

 

[chilla_killa]

So you need the normal chest model with the animations of the mimic model?

 

[Amigurumi]

no, the chest model of warcraft 3 should be edited, so it has a stand animation (closed), a death animation (open animation) and a stand alternate (open, but without the gold).

This is how I want to use it:
If you rightclick on that chest, it plays the open animation. but before this, the chest is closed. and sometimes, instead of giving you items, the chest turns into a mimic, which attacks you.
hope that is clear now =D

 

[Slaydon]

then what do you need that Mimic thing for? then just use the chest Chilla Killa said and start triggering?
Edit

* Stand
* Stand Alternate
* Morph (Opens)
* Morph Alternate (Closes)
* Death
* Death Alternate
* Birth

Attachment points as follows:

* Back left
* Back right
* Origin
* Front left
* Front Right
* Keyhole

 

[Amigurumi]

well, the chest should look like the mimic. (texture)
it would look ugly, if the fillmeup chest woul turn into the mimic, because they don't like the same. (texture).

 

[chilla_killa]

I will try that, but dont expect too much.
I'm a noob modeller. But this could be good way to learn a bit.
It will take some time.

 

[Amigurumi]

yeah thx.

 

[Amigurumi]

-bump-
how long do you need for it? maybe you can tell me the progress?
thx

 

[chilla_killa]

I'm sorry, I guess I won't be able to get it.
I'm just to nooby at animating.
I will work on it, but please ask someone else, too.
I won't finish it, so that it will work.
Sorry, rep as excuse

 

[Amigurumi]

no problem. +rep for trying.

so, someone else interested to make this?

well, I updated the first post, for more informations!

 

[Amigurumi]

bumpedi bump!

anyone? I think it's easy to make, for someone who knows how to model.
of course I'll give credits + rep and a big wet kiss

 

[chilla_killa]

Are you male or female?

 

[Amigurumi]

Are you male or female?

hahaaa
_{male :-*}

 

[chilla_killa]

Baaaaaah, a wet kis from a guy ... omg gaylord.

 

[Amigurumi]

Baaaaaah, a wet kis from a guy ... omg gaylord.

I'm not gay >D
and maybe someone wants a present, if he/she makes the model XD

EDIT
dammit, that was silly from me D:
now nobody will make this model... well, no kisses

 

[Amigurumi]

bumpa-bumpa!

anyone? oh c'mon, I need this model, and I think it's not that hard to make.

 

[tee.dubs]

Its just the wc3 chest with open and close anims is it? if so, it shouldnt be too hard. i'll be happy to give it a try, i need some practice in basic animation

EDIT: I whipped up a quick thingy, it's fitting your exact specifications. Anims are Stand (Closed, inanimate), Death (Opens, animated) and Stand Alternate (Open, inanimate). Should be right and working, if not just pm me or something. Enjoy!

Goodjob tee.dubs, you made what I couldn't. +rep
Which program did you use? I really want to learn how you made it.

hehe, its just a quick animation with only 3 bones, not much at all. I use milkshape but you could probably do it in gmax just as easily. i'm not too familiar with it though

 

[Amigurumi]

wow, big thanks
+rep

 

[chilla_killa]

I'm using Milkshape, too

Oh, ill show you exactly how i did it then:

1, create a joint at the base.
2, assign the vertices at the base of the chest to the joint.
3, create a joint at the hinge. Did not assign any vertices.
4, create a joint at the top of the lid of the chest.
5, assign the vertices that comprise the lid of the chest.
6, RUN ZERO JOINTS NOW
7, go into animation mode and select th joint at the hinge.
8, rotate the hinge toward the lock to make it look closed.
9, the chest is closed.
10, set keyframe and opened the chest and set keyframe at frame 13 or 14 or something, can't remember.
11, typed the code for animations in the comments, and 'linear' in the joints comments.
12, export as mdl.
13, changed the texture from textures\white.blp to the chest texture and set the death anim to non-looping.
14, convert to .mdx and upload. DONE.

That's exactly what i did in brief but meaty detail. if you have any questions feel free to ask, i may not know how to answer them but aye, i'll give it a shawt Hope this helps and good luck with your modeling & animation!
