Dr Super Good:
Resource appears useful and works.

 

[Statharas]

Just Protip
That DDS is for my logo placed below her feet. And i think female protoss are taller.

Also, Selendis only has a high quality texture.


If people want me to, i'll try creating breasts. Just remember that i might not make it that kewl.

Also, if you don't import the "texture", there will be a black plane under her right foot!
I can make it smaller if you guys like. No probs at all.

Has anybody tested it though?

 

[Tleno]

I'm not going to ever use it just because it has a pony on it. Could you like just write your name somewhere on the model instead?

Anyways well done, altrough it doesn't exactly use like female.. but oh well, that's somewhat even better, you can use it as some elite protoss Zealot unit then...

 

[AIagremm]

A disturbance in Force there is... few downloads there will be.

 

[Statharas]

it's only at the right leg of the model, and to tell you the truth, it disappears if you don't import my texture x)

 

[Tleno]

Disappears completely? Without any signs it ever existed? Then fine I guess...

 

[Statharas]

Update: Fixed a problem where in certain cases the model would Tc out.

 

[Dr Super Good]

So your avatar and the character shown are ok to be copyrighted to Blizzard? I thought some company / person owned the copyright to my little pony already.

 

[Statharas]

>.>

I completely forgot about copyrights...

 

[Wazzz]

well, i liked the original zealot
and this is a zealot with titties
what's not to love?

 

[Statharas]

The infested zealot i am working on !
Whopsie, spoiler :V

 

[AIagremm]

Infested zealot?! No! Is not possible!

Protoss cannot be infested by the zerg hyperevolutionary virus. Theoretically the only one who could has done something about that wast he Overmind, but he never came around to create those.

 

[Statharas]

Think of it as a terran failed experiment.

 

[AIagremm]

I'd rather see a gestalt - terran with parts of protoss body.

 

[Tleno]

Actually, the hybrids from the Piercing The Shroud mission as are revealed are somewhat fused zerg and protoss... so I guess that's possible, but you should then consider renaming your creature to "Hybrid Zealot".

 

[AIagremm]

Hybrids are a different thing. Hybrids are... well hybrids. Genetically spliced DNA. Infestation of the protoss however is impossible.

But making some sort of hybrid zealot could be fun.

 

[Statharas]

Oooh, the Gestalt is coming... As for the "Infected Zealot" is the impure attempt of infection of the Protoss DNA with Zerg DNA. An accident if you may.

 

[Tleno]

You mean some kind of more early experimental hybrids?

 

[AIagremm]

Yay, Gestalt!

Duran's experiments maybe? He went krazeh on dat dark moon.

 

[Dr Super Good]

The hybrids are not infested, they are fused. Kerrigan like wise was not infested but fused to form the "queen of blades". The major difference is the quality of the resulting creature, where as infested terran units look chaotic, rough and zombie like, fused zerg units look more perfect, smooth and zerg like.

Kerrigan went through a long infestation process to garuntee such perfect combination of zerg into her (many missions you had to defend her I think) unlike normal infested terrans which are done very quickly. The result is that she will remain tied to the zerg forever (even after being blasted by the artifact). The hybrid like wise have induced zerg with protoss fusion over a long time meaning again that they seem flawlessly combined unlike infested terran units. The fact the hybrid are powered and controled by the void also means they are probably further enhanced with new xelnaga technology (thus why the fusion between zerg and protoss was possible). The hybrid come in 2 basic forms so far, the templar like and the ultralisk like forms.

 

[Statharas]

naaa, it's more like a Protoss version of the infested terran...
I am still struggling on adding cameras for portraits q.q

 

[AIagremm]

Which makes the whole plot of her being deinfested look even more retarded. Seing as she is a hybrid herself.

Xel'naga technology or the Void powers of the Dark Voice? I still hope that Hybrids will get something like the Naga race of TFT. Seeing Hybrid buildings would be nice, I mean I guess they would be Xel'nagaish, with organic crystals and most looking infected, with some sort of blue tentacles... would be nice to see Duran again, explained who he is, maybe some hynotized human slave units as well =P

 

[Statharas]

Lol. No. Just no. Why would they have buildings? They're monsters, the naga were under control. The naga are sentient, the Hybrids aren't.

 

[AIagremm]

Well, probably Maar doesn't know that hybrids can't speak.

 

[Statharas]

Wut :v?

 

[AIagremm]

Well, I mean the hybrid Maar probably didnt know hybrids are just monsters without a mind, he had no problem controlling protoss of Zhakul'das and talking.

 

[Statharas]

Hybrids can speak, they just lack a mind to do so.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Hybrids seem to be like the zerg in their behaviour. Each individual can exibit behaviour, and even complex behaviour but they have no free will. If you paid attention, you would have noticed how the hybrid were following that shady xelnaga guys orders to the word and were acting as 1 being (exibited by the zerg usually). They also had no problem mixing with zerg units. Maar was probably following orders to, just unlike zerg they have protoss like intelligence.

Hybrids are meant to be a shit load stronger than you saw in the WoL campaign. 1 of them alone destroyed a whole lab. All other appearences were against protoss which probably have resilliant technology (from years of battling other protoss and zerg) so are resillient to most of their power.

The hybrid also seem to be able to recycle psyonic energy, like how the zerg recycle biomass. They are able to drain power from the souls of the protoss to resurrect themselves.

It is likly that the hybrid templar guys can utalize abilities like The Queen of Blades could like psyonic implosion. The reason again why we did not see such abilities are that protoss might have a high resistance to them (and the ability from the campaign was made to never see use on a protoss). This would explain the move Maar consantly used which lifted on of your units in the air.

 

[AIagremm]

Well hybrids are supposed to be the combination of purity of form and essence. So they are lead by one mind, similar to how the zergs were controlled by the Overmind, and also have the minds to control psionic energy, similar to the protoss, also being physically the combination of the two species.

Maar's intelligence and abilities, make it possible that the hybrid subspecies differ drastically in terms of command. I believe the Hybrid Destroyers(such as Maar) have higher position amongst the hybrids, due to them having intelligence. Perhaps due to that they also have a bigger freedom of choice. The Hybrid Reavers on the other hand are more like zerg, unintelligent. Hybrid Reavers probably are wild and aggressive, their actions fully guided by the Dark Voice.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Hybrid Destroyers are based on a templar. The zerg is a sub giving them enhanced power and endurance only. Thus why they have so many templar like abilities and protoss shielding. They however still have low health realitivly like protoss units.

Hybrid Reavers are based on a ultralisk. The protoss is a sub giving them enhanced power and endurance (and the use of 2 legs like the protoss instead of 4). Thus why they have so many ultralisk like properties such as the cleaving attack and stuidly high endurance. They however still lack psyonic shields like zerg units.

Be aware that the templars (in this case high templars) are the strongest individual form of the protoss. Archons require 2 templars and units like colossus and carriers are machines so can not be fully intigrated (have to be built). The ultralisk is probably the most practicle land unit the zerg has, with metalisks and omegalisks being too easy targets to be effective.

Why no hybrid air units? Afterall the zerg is full of nasty air mutations like broodlords or the stupidly strong livithan. Well I imagine we will probably see more hybrids as the campaign progresses. The battle with the hybrids is probably reserved for the Heart of the Void campaign seeing as the major terran faction should be at peace with the major protoss forces (Raynor is on good terms with the protoss) while the Zerg are apparently "free" so probably no longer a threat for the Protoss.

Infact, it is more than likly the final battle invloves a showdown with the xelnaga shady guy in person. This would probably be all 3 factions (as is tradition in SC games) against endless onslaughts of hybrid units.

 

[AIagremm]

Well I think that hybrids will most likely be more protoss based, then zerg based, seeing as protoss are the Purity of Form. Besides, a broodlord or mutalisk splcied with protos would be... weird.

Well Judicators are the ruling caste of the protoss, well used to be. But Templar are the strongest.

And yes, seeing as Legacy of the Void will be about Zeratul uniting tribes of protoss, and I guess finding human allies as well, naturally the main enemies will be the hybrids and not the zerg.
And surely there will be a battle with the Dark Voice... but it is intriguing how can they defeat him.

 

[Statharas]

2nd paragraph, word before last, Protoss*

4th par, Legacy of the void*

And i think that the last level will be unlike the sc bw ending.

I think it will be either the oposite of bw, ie: Kerrigan's Swarm, Raynor's Raiders, and Zeratul's (you) Protoss.

or You 3 vs the hybrids.

 

[Xian]

then what sound set is recommended for this model?

 

[Tleno]

then what sound set is recommended for this model?

I guess Selendis, since it's the only female protoss. You can use Selendis portrait model for it, too.

 

[Statharas]

But that's until i figure out how to do cameras for portraits. I am currently trying to make the actual model become a portrait.

 

[Xian]

the only female protoss.

Protoss do not have gender i think
but kewl!

 

[Statharas]

Uhm. Look at Selendis and Rashagal (if that was the dark templar matriach). I mean, she's a matriach.

 

[Xian]

I mean protoss dont mind gender, i think they have the same parts.
But we need more girls units!

 

[Statharas]

Except from Selendis, she was the only Protoss that was in charge of a fleet.

 

[AIagremm]

As I said, until the fall of the Conclave.

 

[Statharas]

She was there before the Conclave fell. She was the executor under Artanis.
And a preserver that was attacked by Ulrezaj.
And the matriach.

 

[AIagremm]

Well ffirst of all, its just a theory and if I were you I wouldnt rely on book lore. Writers who work tor blizzard tend to ignore lore and logic in their books and comics. Second, Artanis came around only after Tassadars death, after the fall of the Conclave.

Presergers are a different case, they arent military nor ruling. And I believe the female became a preserver only because she wws on that world, on Aiur the Conclave wouldnt allow that.

The Matriarch was a Dark Templar. Unlike the corrupted Conclave, they have always been tolerant and genders were equal. Perhaps because Matriarch was practically always their leader.

 

[Statharas]

Sc wiki biatch. Modeler wins.

 

[Xian]

Its SC Wiki... anyone can edit

 

[Tleno]

Guys don't you think this discussion is going a bit... off-topic? I mean we're here to discuss the model, right?

 

[Rispetto]

So your avatar and the character shown are ok to be copyrighted to Blizzard? I thought some company / person owned the copyright to my little pony already.

Seeing as how she is not making any money by using the symbol, and is instead promoting 'my little pony' (acting as an advertisement) I doubt the corporation would be mad.

Though that being said, Blizzard could technically be making money off this image.

Interesting topic.

But that's until i figure out how to do cameras for portraits. I am currently trying to make the actual model become a portrait.

The portrait is actually a completely separate model, and generally looks better as such.
Generally the model has low-poly (making it use far less space) and has a background which you cannot give a normal model.
Also the portraits generally only have enough mesh for what the people will actually see (the hellion portrait model is missing one hand), again making it far smaller in file size.

I mean, adding a camera on the model itself. So that the same model can be used for portraits. And backgrounds aren't THAT needed. And i know how portraits work :v

 

[AIagremm]

Stathras, you have an avatar of a female pony with cute face. What do you expect people think you to be, He-man?

 

[Statharas]

90% of the people on the internet are men, 10% are women.
