Hero Ranger (Warsmash)

Here are some gameplay clips from when this model was getting worked on 4 or 5 months ago:

We have a better functioning version of this, but I can see use for the people.
It still has a lot of issues and can use optimization.

 

[Retera]

Could you post a link to the better functioning version? Or do you just mean the Kuhneghetz one linked in the model description?
I think the functionality of that one and this one were roughly the same -- just to make sure I'm understanding properly, do you see a specific case where this model could be improved to function better in some way that the old Kuhneghetz version does? (Other than the hero glow style difference, which was intentional for this asset.)

That is correct.
If you make a model then you have to make sure it functions properly. Leaving things visible in the decay animations where they should not be visible is just lazy and please don't tell me you cannot see them. I can see them and the rules say models need to function properly they do not.
There is nothing more I hate then laziness and then people talking more about it then fixing the issue.

Well, I didn't notice because I didn't look. Ingame I was using this character as a hero. I think the model was literally based on shandris, with extra customization added, and part of the "split geoset and add team color" functions in Retera Model Studio that I was relying upon to not break probably broke and caused that visibility bug. So in this case it seems like it's actually a programming issue more than a model issue, since we should be able to rely on the tools to work without causing a bug like that. Definitely seems like a programming bug worth fixing

Hey Vendro, I tried opening the Alpha Hero Ranger's portrait on Magos, but it keeps giving me this error: Unknown tag " " in Camera. Then it refuses to open the file.

 

[Retera]

Yea good point! I updated this bundle so that the portrait camera no longer has a zero length track.

Yours definately have a more accurate look to the pre-beta ranger model than my version, that's for sure. Good job on that.
Not sure about the facial expression though. Looks like she's seeing some serious shit.

"You never touch the other elves like that!"
