Heroify the tauren Spirit walker model request

[Eagle XI]

Take the default tauren Spirit walker,
give him proper attack anims where he is using the axe,
make default attack-1 animation into spell throw,
rename spell morph into spell,
and add the teamcolor hero glow to it's base.

make default attack-1 animation into spell throw,

I can do this.

and add the teamcolor hero glow to it's base.

I can show you how to do this without modelling (in World Editor).

give him proper attack anims where he is using the axe,

But I can't do this. Or maybe it is possible to transfer an animation from a model that is close to the Spirit Walker (any idea of model?).
Is it worth it if it doesn't have the attack anim? Because I'm not sure to succeed transfering those animations.

 

[Eagle XI]

perhaps fitting anims:
Ogre's attack, attack 2, and spell,
archimonde's attack - 2,
ogre is the only other model i know has weapon at that hand.
DK, Knight, Farseer etc have an weapon at that hand too, actually, but nothing can make use of here.

 

[TheFrenchLeprechaun]

I failed transfering animations (not surprising because I have almost no knowledge in this field).

Do you want me to do the other edits, or it is useless without the attack animation?

I think I have a tauren spirit walker with a weapon attack animations somewhere, I think I download it from XGM or other Russian page, let me search for it.

You simply go ahead and do what you can.

Any results ?

How to add Hero Glow without Modeling

 

[TheFrenchLeprechaun]

And here is the model that Stein was talking about (I think) :

Северный таурен - WarCraft 3 - XGM: Gamedev & Modmaking

It looks like he forgot to post it

 

[stein123]

XD actually no, it was a model similar to this one: Модели орков - Way of Others - XGM: Gamedev & Modmaking , but i haven't found it yet

 

[Kyrbi0]

Cool idea, man. In lieu of an actual "hero-ized Spirit Walker" model (which I'd love to theorycraft & draw in hopes of convincing a modeler to make f'real), this is a good substitute.

Don't forget hero glow on the chest & weapon.

 

[Athur12A2]

Melee hero spirit walker. Hope this thing is "proper" enough...

Edit: removed due to wrong hero glows.

 

[Eagle XI]

- Spell throw anim ends too soon,
- glow on axe only visible from sides and not sticking to weapon.
*atleast in war3modeleditor
but yeah i can use it as is.

 

[Athur12A2]

I fixed the hero glow, now it glows properly.
The spell throw animation is default, I just changed the name so it cant be helped.

 

[Eagle XI]

Open the default spirit walker, look at where the brazier is when the anim ends,
open your edit look it remains mid air at anim's end.

 

[Athur12A2]

Open the default spirit walker, check the attack - 1 sequence
open my edit look at spell throw sequence

Spoiler: or you don't need to

 

[Eagle XI]

edit: its working correctly.

 

[Athur12A2]

Have you tested it in game yet? When the hero actually "stop" in mid-air? Your Magos is showing wrong; the fact that they have the same frame means it has not been edited. And I have seen it work properly in Mdlvis and in-game test map as well.

 

[Eagle XI]

Ive just checked and its working correctly at editor's ingame preview, as you said.
Thanks for the model and sorry for the extra banter.
