Gronn V.4

[bobadoo2]

This is the scariest model I've ever seen haha. I already wish I could see him in green, maybe he would make a cool grunt upgrade is what I'm thinking.

This model has a great potential BUT some problems remain :

1. You haven't uploaded the good version that's still the V.2 and not the V.3 as you specified in your title.
2. The team color texture on the tattoos go too unnoticed and deserve to be clearer and more extensive.
3. AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, please, make and give him a real portrait (based on giant's ?), he deserves it.

I think the model is V3 but the name of the file is just V2.
Team colored textures are ment to be this way, they look more natural.
And about the portrait...yes I am working on it so hopefuly it will be soon!

Cool ! I am glad to learn that. I'm sorry but I have just noticed another problem, I don't know from which unit you get the death sound but it seems no longer that of the giant, we don't hear anymore the thud of the colossus collapsing with heaviness and that, it spoils everything.

Please, can you fix that too?

Dont really know what you mean with that. What exactly is the problem?

Can you reset the death sound of the mountain giant to make the Gronn death more realistic, please?

Lovely model with a beautiful skin and nicely adjusted animations.
Works in-game and performs well.
Approved

Not sure what I might be doing wrong here but I can for the life of me not import this model correctly (using 1.29).

I have tried the following paths:

war3mapimported/GronnUnitV4.mdx + Textures\gronn.blp

GronnUnitV4.mdx + Textures\gronn.blp

GronnUnitV4.mdx + gronn.blp

GronnUnitV4.mdx + Textures/gronn.blp

None of them seems to be working. I have restarted the world editor every time I tried a new path combination, but I am still getting "Can't load mdx file" errors.

EDIT: And this was of course just because I forgot to change the model file of the unit, I feel stupid now

Could we get a version where he holds a large club or something?
The tree makes him a little to similar to mountain giant if you already have one of those in your map.

YASSS!!!



The big bad Grond! Now ogres are not the biggest bad in the Horde)

Great model but the tree is displayed white already in the World Editor. Could you please fix that? Other than that I would rate 5/5.

After some help by deepstrasz and General Frank I was able to fix this issue: Fixed Gronn model with War Club

I simply replaced the ReplacableTexture 31 with a fixed texture path "ReplaceableTextures\LordaeronTree\LordaeronSummerTree". Apparently, in Reforged the replacable texture seems broken (because of the BLP extension?). Note that the War Club ability always worked but did not use the model's texture information for "Stand Upgrade".

It is still shown wrong in the editor but works ingame. To fix it in the editor you have to import "ReplaceableTextures\LordaeronTree\LordaeronSummerTree" as a texture.
