Goblin Town Hall

[Dominus Omegus]

Hello, i am inquiring to anybody to please make me or foward me to a Goblin themed town hall, secondary building and fully upgraded 3rd building, different to the one made by Dragoon, since i don't know how to upgrade all 3 tiers of the building, thankyou.

In order to change tiers of a multy-tier model all you have to do is check its Required Animation Names in the object editor. On the first level tier they don't say anything. On the second they say "upgrade,first", and respectively "upgrade/second" on the third. Since Dragoon's hall uses three upgrade tiers instead of the normal two, you just have to add "third" instead of "first/second" to use the highest level tier.

sorry i'm new to this all could you please tell me where abouts to find the tier requirments or whatever, thankyou.

Sure. Just follow the following steps:

1. Open World Editor and import Dragoon's Model. I presume you know how to do it.
2. Open the Object Editor.
3. This time you will use the Human TownHall/Keep/Castle unit as a base.
4. So, go to the Town Hall unit, and change the Art-Model to Dragoon's Goblin Hall.
5. Do the same with the Keep and Castle units.
6. Now, notice that at the section Art- Required Animation Names of the Keep unit it says "upgrade,first", and at the same section of the Castle unit it says "upgrade,second". This is because in fact the three units share one model which has three different sets of animations (one for the TownHall, one for the Keep etc.) and the section Required Animation Names specifies which set the model uses.
7. Now if you've done all the previous steps correctly, you have a fully functional 3-stage town hall. Now comes the part about the extra tier Dragoon added. Do make it show in-game instead of one of the other ones simply go to the Required Animation Names section again, and change the "upgrade,first" or "upgrade,second" to "upgrade,third". This way it will show you the highest level of the town hall. But since you said you needed a 3tier goblin town hall instead of 4, i suggest doing steps 1-6 and you are good to go.
8. Just a tip: scale the model to 3 'cause its a bit small.

Thankyou so much, all i need is a decent research centre, although this would have been a perfect one lol.

For a research center, there are also some models that look good. thats what I used this for. http://www.hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/models/1682/

Also, dragoon has even more models that can work browse through those too.

If you're looking for good "gobliny" models, I recommend not searching "goblin." There are alot of great building models that have orc names in them, and sometimes are passed by or missed.

Good luck!

Oohh like the orc warstation. I used that for a mobile lumber mill. It works so great. However, the skin could be changed.
