Icons to Models Pack

[Spacebuns]

This is freaking epic!

 

[General Frank]

This is amazing! Keep it up!

 

[Strydhaizer]

Among all of it what i really like is the box!

 

[darciFromVIP]

Omg, they are looking so gorgeous actually!! Very nice job

 

[Tauer]

Very cool and extremely useful!

 

[FeelsGoodMan]

Holy s**t, this is great!

 

[Cuore]

Excellent

 

[jj84]

Nice work.

 

[Arathorn]

excellent work and very useful! Indeed other items models doesn't have a quality like yours!

 

[SiyC]

So useful, really appreciate.

 

[Remixer]

Damn, nice job. The stand animation looks a bit wonky in the viewer though, I wonder if its just the Hive end.

 

[T.Nick]

Beautiful models, thanks for the efforts!

 

[Ether]

Epic! Yeah, baby.

 

[Hazop / Sarven]

Finally! No more stupid looking treasure chest models!

 

[Zephyrius2412]

Ok, this is clearly amazing, although a bit too polygonal to blend into the graphics of the game. Keep going for other items !

 

[Kenathorn]

Big thanks to everyone for your replies and ratings! I'm really glad that you like the models.

Actually, I have some more stuff for you. I'll upload it soon!

Remixer, I recommend you to check the models ingame or in the World Editor, all the animations performs fine there, so, it's probably a Hive Model Viewer glitch.

 

[Kyrbi0]

Heck yeah, this is epic & useful. Ever since I first saw @Direfury using icon textures to model, I knew we had something great coming.

 

[MooNek]

THIS IS AWESOME! *clap clap clap clap*
THIS IS AWESOME! *clap clap clap clap*
Great work!

I tested all the models and in fact the Belt of Giant Strenght seems a little too stretched and the magic aura with the Brillance staff is not very well centered in relation to the stick and therefore the selection is a little missed.
It might also be cool to have a mana potion like it should be on warcraft 3.

 

[knight26]

You see, this is the reason why I keep sticking around THW for so long.
Well done!
Have some rep, and please keep being creative.

Thanks for your comment!
Let's start with the Belt. When you said "a little too stretched" you've meant that it looks wide, right? I don't see an issue here, because it is an actual belt, it is not a ring or a bracer, it shouldn't be completely round, it just should be wide and oval. You see, your hips are obviously wider than your wrists.

I'll take a look the Brilliance Staff, if you think that the rune is not perfectly centered. It looks well for me, anyway.

I'll also think about mana potions, maybe one day I will create them too.

 

[Deolrin]

Wow, these are very cool! Well done!

I have to say something, though, regarding the big potion models...

Hidden

I am pretty sure that what you modelled as a sort of "sticker" on the potions, is actually the bottom (inside) side of the opening, with the cork sticking out on the "inside" of the potion bottle. Your depiction is curious, though, I've never seen the potion icons in that way.

 

[Remixer]

I could chip in my comments:
Boots of Speed look a bit too large compared to the other items (they are bulky which is okay, but the overall size could be tuned down a notch).
Health Stone emitters are going a bit too strong, hard to see the actual mesh behind all that glimmer and glitter, the mesh could also be tilted a bit more.

Then some meta-critic:
Some of the items become unrecognizable when they turn around (e.g. amulet of spell shield), perhaps other kind of rotation animation would be more practical (so that the model does not turn around completely)

I'm talking about that. It's not really important but you can see that the aura is not very well centered ^^

EDIT:I don't understand why the picture doesn't show up... nevermind!Thanks for your answer

Yeah, maybe they should just turn left and right? not completely around?. Would make more sense, and would be easily recognizable ingame, since Warcraft is kind of set to a certain angle, too.

 

[Rhapsodie]

Splendid work!!!

 

[Swatosj]

The modding community was expecting this pack to come for more than 15 years, congrats !

There are a few button icons that aren't quite clear . Might just be me, but the Critical Strike icon always seemed like an axe. Then I realized it was a blade rending through flesh

 

[Kenathorn]

Thanks for your comments once again, guys!

Well, I don't want to dissapoint you, but you were not right about these potions all the time. Let me explain it with this image:

I've used the Rune model (Objects\InventoryItems\Rune\Rune.mdx) as the base for all of my models except the Box. So, my items should fit this classic style that is also used by some other modelers, like Matarael.
Even if some models look quite different from behind, I definately won't change the style of their animations.

 

[Deolrin]

Huh. You appear to be right. That's interesting, thanks for putting in the effort to show what it is. Although I find it strange that the bottom of the stamp is "lit up" by the liquid inside.

 

[Kenathorn]

I've updated the pack. Check it out once again, maybe you'll find new stuff useful.

 

[Rui]

Hmmmm ham, yummy

 

[Kyrbi0]

See, even with that mega-zoom, I feel like an argument could be made for Deolrin's viewpoint. Like, they angled the bottle (& I would argue it was done specifically for this purpose) such that the liminal edge of the glass bottle is *just* visible apparently bisecting the stopper. Yet the bottom of the stopper is still aligned in such a way as to be visible at that angle.

ah dannae.

Counterpoint: OK so if it's not the bottom of the stopper, what the heck is it? I can't accept it's just some random sticker or badge.

But it IS a random sticker or badge. Just deal with it.

 

[General Frank]

A wonderful collection of items, especially for RPGs or campaigns.
Models work in-game and perform well. Approved.
Great job!

 

[João Caju]

Very useful! I always felt something like this should've come with the base game.

I'd only suggest to update the previewing images so that each icon follows the order of the models, as they appear.

 

[Banhammer]

These look great, i'm especially happy you made models for the potions too.

 

[tetsu]

♥♥♥

 

[hexhound]

Really awesome pack, scroll of tp wouldn't load for me, but 5 or 6 others loaded fine. Really good looking and useful models.

 

[kentzeus]

I can't load the small blue potion (not the one in this picture but the other one), is it just me? I haven't seen anyone else pointing this out. And I think you forgot to upload the icon for the large blue potion?
Other than that it's really really nice, I haven't tried them all but those I tried that's working are amazing I just have one request - can you make a green potion aswell like these in this picture?

 

[Moises08x]

WOW THIS IS AWESOME

 

[Radin]

Damn! This is the meaning of clean work

 

[Kenathorn]

Hello everyone and thanks for your comments.

I can't load the small blue potion (not the one in this picture but the other one), is it just me? I haven't seen anyone else pointing this out. And I think you forgot to upload the icon for the large blue potion?
Other than that it's really really nice, I haven't tried them all but those I tried that's working are amazing I just have one request - can you make a green potion aswell like these in this picture?

Let's start with the names.
There are Small Blue Potion and Lesser Blue Potion. The Lesser one was uploaded with the 1st update, it's also pictured in the image you attached to your reply.
So, you're talking about the Small one for sure. If it's not working for you, you probably didn't import its icon to your map or you've imported it incorrectly. Please check the icon import path.

I didn't forget to upload Blue Potion's (sphere shaped one), coz it is Warcraft 3 default icon, but it is hidden in the World Editor. Just paste "ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNPotionBlue.blp" to the icon name section n your Object Editor.

I can also say, that I'm planning to update the pack one or two more times, so I'll add new items to it. And I will definately add Lesser Green Potion and Lesser Red Potion to it, so you have to just wait a little bit.

Yes that's right the small one. It's imported correctly but it doesn't work, the other models are working fine and is imported in the same way so I don't get it. I've even tried to redownload it and import it again but still doesn't work, what version is it for?

I can also say, that I'm planning to update the pack one or two more times, so I'll add new items to it. And I will definately add Lesser Green Potion and Lesser Red Potion to it, so you have to just wait a little bit.

I'm very pleased to hear that, thank you!

 

[Astaroth Zion]

You are my hero, great work.

 

[Moises08x]

It is perfect. Awesome

 

[ANdROnIQ]

Now I'm afraid not to overload my new map with tons of these beautiful models - can't help to just add a model for each single item type! 5/5

 

[Noctiss_Season2]

This is some Top Notch Work right here. Godspeed dude

 

[Kenathorn]

Thanks for your appreciation.
Actually, there's no godspeed here. It always takes a while to create every model.
