Frigate

BlinkBoy: I like it a lot 5/5. I would suggest that you change the BlendTime from 150 to 500, since the attack is made by side, changing the blend time could make the game rotation look smoother.

 

[anarchianbedlam]

looks good, 4/5 for high poly, otherwise great idea, and good execution, i will look at the animations/ particles now

 

[Zypher]

5 for Awsome model

 

[Mr. Bob]

Btw, try it ingame to get the best effect.

 

[Zombie]

Great job. A really well detailed, realistic frigate with no custom textures at all. A bit high poly, but all in all, I love it.

5/5

 

[CeDiL]

Very Good!

 

[Devine]

erm ... the polycount is very high as mentioned before.
there also are no borders on the ship ... SO if the kraken attacks it, evrybody will fall into the sea . The captain's cabin has a weird texture on it.
4/5

 

[D a w n]

looks really nice.

 

[Artins the Great]

Neat and nice, +rep

 

[Emm-A-]

its quite nice, but there are some things, that you could improve.

- canons fire at only one side of the ship as far as i saw it
- its detailed, yes, but in some way (i dont know how to explain it) its detailed at the wrong places, i mean for example there are ropes, but they are huge, or the back of the ship, its a bit undetailed. the sails are really nice, but the masts are a bit fat...

dont get me wrong its a nice model, but im trying to tell you, what you could do beter.

I hope this helps a bit

The cannon issue cannot be fixed without triggers. Sadly D:

 

[Cavman]

The cannon issue cannot be fixed without triggers.

Can to. Animate it to rotate so that it's side is facing forward in the attack and stand ready animations. There you go, it's attack from it's side.

 

[Devine]

Dude....it is bordered. Look closely.
And, as if people will stop to look at the cabin...lol.

D: You're right. But It's not really visible. Just stretch the borders a bit So they come higher.

I did that. lol He is wanting BOTH sides to attack.

 

[Mechanical Man]

Now you may ask, "why are there no sprites?". Well, because they are so unrealistic and stupid. How can a cannonball make a ship light on fire? Frigates don't usually have what they called 'heated shot' balls. So shush!

The fire could be triggered by other means, like fallen candles, sparks caused by cannonballs sliding on metal areas, powder igniting because of heat...

Those events are more rare than it just falling apart...

 

[ChaosWyrm]

I just shat myself in awe. 10/5

 

[TheDivineBoss]

Looks kinda cute, don't ya think? Fix the 'windows' at the rear a bit.

4/5

 

[Emm-A-]

dude, every time someone says something you could improve, you just say "no, its fine".

You should learn how to handle constructive criticism...

Well, look through the comments...

1. Add sides! There are sides.

2. Make both sides attack! You can't do that without triggers.

3. Masts look bland! What the heck?

4. The cabin looks weird? .....

etc

Dat big box looks out of place. If you look at that era frigates, you will noticed that the hull at the back is only slightly elevated. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/66/Diana_class_frigate_model.jpg

Some fences it will be nice too, that is what I dislike the most in blizz ships. And water particles too.

The sails are fine.

For the side attacks you can make the ship turn and fire and after firing turn back. For firing all cannons make a spell animation, so you can use Fan of knives ability to make them shoot.

First! Look at the Carrack ship. It is elevated MUCH higher. Remember, this doesn't have to be a frigate. And, ships of the 1700's varied sometimes depending on the builder.

There are fences.
I may add water particles, yes.
And, I think the design for the attack mechanics work fine. Although, I make an alternate version likewise. The nice think about the current version is whenever two of these vessels fight, they fire along each side.

 

[Kael Theron]

Very good and realistic and what is in my oppinion most important: much better for cinematics than blizzard's original ships.

 

[Cool In Denial]

Very good and in my opinion it does not need to be more realistic...
I Will see the animation later !! 4/5
Happy Christmas

 

[Jaijaibinx]

Nice Model and I thank u for the christmas present.. I can only give rep in return

 

[shamanyouranus]

The particles that anarchianbedlam added look really weird. The firing of the cannons looks good, but the cannons are right on top of the water. Fix this please.

[michael.t.100]

[Gasido]

[Mr. Bob]

If you would like to use a different skin, be my guest.

 

[infinity33s]

Perfect work i give a 5/5

 

[TheGodOfIron]

This could be used in Civilsation Wars. Way to go!

 

[tyeeeee1]

Can you make a Man-O-War?

 

[redragex]

looks very great works very well too 4.5/5 this will become very useful for me in my maps later on keep up the terrific work cause i'm looking forward to your other models.

 

[Arariel]

Can we change the flag design?
We don't want to surrender after all...

 

[Avex]

Looks like a ship from WoW, could be useful in Wc3;WoW.

 

[raxo2]

i think i will give it 5/5 because i love those ship ^^ does it shoot from the front like all other wc3 ships do?

 

[Kingprice]

Great model I hope you make some other ships too
4/5

 

[Mr. Bob]

Great model I hope you make some other ships too
4/5

I made 3 others. : ) Look in the pack section.

I might make more though.

 

[TKF]

Is there a way you can reduce the filesize of this model? atm it's a bit to high for me. I used one of your carrack models in my map already.

 

[Say_No_To_War]

aye, nice model, thanks. I will use it in the next version of Battleships Crossfire (4.32+).
5/5
