Archian: The model shows up with a white blob ingame as reported in the thread. It doesn't adjust to the tileset used. Please fix this or provide a solution. Status changed to pending.

I doubt saracens put in elephant tusks in front of their 'palaces' (which is more like a tent) and they looked differently anyway. And maybe you should make bigger foundation so it may fit better on uneven terrain (da ne izgleda ružno).

Go watch Lord of The Rings, Mechanical Man, or read the book, this has nothing to do with the Middle East.

It can be used for medieval Middle-East maps or African tribes, but yes, its main purpose is the Haradrim Palace.
@ Mechanical Man: here is a pic of the concept: http://img452.imageshack.us/img452/8819/sshot0005as9.jpg I just made it slightly different so that i don't have a 100% identical model with the LOTR game from EA. My Haradrim Archer also isn't 100% identical with those from BFME.

He is making Haradrim, not Saracens like in real life.

Though anything Arab and middle eastern is not mentioned about Haradrim, it is obvious that Haradrim look middle-eastern and Arab.

It does not look suitable for African tribes, the African tribes have primitive adobe mud houses made of straw roof.

I was referring to people like Somalian and North African. They've similar, tent-like huts.

 

[Verhalthur]

I like the style, but I recommend the Draenei Hut texture for the tusks. The cloth wrapping on the hut tusks might fit more than iron spike rings on the orc building tusks.

hm, sounds quite nice to me will try it later...i guess i should change the cloth parts from the sides as well....they need some fix

ok ive decided, im gona use these haradrim models in my titan land map for a faction race. if you make the swordsman model possible the chieftain model (the one who is seen in the movie commanded the munakul) then even better.

the guy you mean, who was commanding the mumakil in the movie is the one who is called mahud. That's the name Indian (NOT native American) elephant-commanders have too well, he'll be a part of the mumakil and this is going to be the model made last from the Haradrim collection. I'll make the easier ones & remaning contracts first. bonus: I'll also make a mumakil-pen building & a Haradrim watchtower later

I both watched movies and read the book, but I didn't say it doesn't look like haradrim building, just thats not much arab.

the ''Saracenian'' is just for people who want to use it as such. It's main purpose is "Haradrim''

thank you so much for this have wanted for ever been stuck with dumb draeni hut.........

N.P., buddy more Haradrim stuff will follow later.

 

[rcshaggy]

Reminds me of a Orc watchpost or even a camp tent for a group of Centaur, or even a desert man that loves Egypt.

ROFL this idea is entirely new and in my point of view, quite innovative

 

[xvarts]

You must make a haradrim pack

 

[Fire Eagle]

I like it. Useful for tribe games.

 

[Uncle Fester]

yeah, once all are done and approved, i will

I like it. Useful for tribe games.

that's a nice idea too though it was initially made for Lord of the Rings

 

[sholgar]

For some reason the base comes out to be a white blob.

 

[Gumberbunbder]

For some reason the base comes out to be a white blob.

Yeah, same problem for me. But i really like this model; its exactly like the battle for middle earth structure.

 

[SNIper of DARKness]

Uncle Fester responded to all but those last comments... The White Blob makes this model almost useless, Shame as it was quite good.

 

[Uncle Fester]

As said in the PMs, the white blob is just in Magos and such present. Ingames it shows the corresponding tileset of the map. It's made the same way as the tree of the mountain giants. It also appears white in Magos, and changes ingames according 2 the tileset used.

Same as above.

Thx a lot. i gave my best to make it look as similar as possible as the BFME structure

I tried to use this, the whiteblob shows in game aswell

"we've put up the HaradrimPalace!"
Ah,the nostalgia.I played the hell out of BFME 2

 

[Archian]

Thanks for updating this. It's indeed useful for many LotR maps.
However, the new texture for the "hill" won't fit a lot of terrain tilesets. I suggest remove it all together i.e. the "hill" so it can be used with any tileset and still look great.

Keep up the good work

you mean the hill underneath it?

.....yeah, it's a pretty nice game.

Yeah, i guess removing it is the best way to go. Anyways, thx a lot for your advice so far!
