Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Moogle

[Kanaru]

I'm currently working on a Moogle from FFCC (I think they're the best ). I've made the model and I'm currently working on texturing. From there, I really don't know how to do anything to put it into WC3, so this is kind of a request for someone to do that, so I was questioning which forum to post in. Hopefully it doesn't matter.

Some images:

If anyone would like to animate it (and if you are going to, please make it look exceptional) and import it into WC3, you will be my savior. Of course you will receive credit.

could you please tell us what tools you use so we can help you?, instead of asking us(at the wrong forum) for doing it for you..

I used 3ds max 9 to model it and Photoshop CS3 to texture it, nothing more.

I was also showing what I've been working on, so that's why I decided to post it in the Modeling section, to get some constructive criticism as well as the possibility of finding someone to help out with animation and bones to put it into WC3.

Simply I'm asking for someone to do the animation it because I never really made bones to attach to a model before, and I've definitely never modeled for a video game. I don't know what I need to do to have it compatible and so forth.

Here's the answer on how to export from max 9:

and come on, try doing things on your own; is time for you to learn.

Well exporting and importing isn't precisely what I want to be done.

I need someone to animate the character because I never did such a thing for a game, at least, not only that but I'm unsure of what conditions I have to meet to have the animations work. I've never done anything much beyond making statues, pretty much. I've played with animations before, but only once did I actually make the bones myself and assign it to parts but it didn't even work the way I wanted. I don't even know if WC3 supports the same kind of bones (I heard something about pivots, I'm clueless as to what that is anyway). I don't even know if it's okay to have one mesh for the whole model, or if I have to seperate the mesh into different body parts, etc. I wouldn't mind the animation being taken from another WC3 model, as long as it looks okay.

Besides that, I can export it myself, but that's not my issue.

mainly what you have to do is create a bone chain and skin your mesh to it; that's the case of max 6-up.

If you want someone to animate it for you, then make a thread in the request section.

very nice moogle, im currently making one from ff11, need to unwrap, texture and animate it. although the wings on yours could use more detail. other than that it looks great.
