THE_END: Once again, perfect skin here, now maybe you should make a flying Illidan model for these skins

 

[Darkholme]

I'll make portrait icons later.

 

[Devine]

youve made it so dark , it wont need a alternate form

 

[Darkholme]

it IS the alternate form. lol. the non-Alternate form is down one in the list. go look at the skins.

 

[THE_END]

It is the alternate form in WoW
...way to be dumb DevineArmy

 

[Darkholme]

Oh yeah. I made this last minute after the main one was finished. cause I couldnt stand using a crappy ultra form.

 

[N8-11_GER]

is it possible to amke the same skin but with lower kb?^_^ coz my map has atm 3.95mb and i want to use this skin :/

 

[Darkholme]

you could convert it to a tga, open it in photoshop and shrink the resolution then convert back. youd make the skin 2x as blurry though.

or use a blp paletter

 

[ady_illidan]

both skins are awesome!
@N8-11_GER: use warcraft image extractor II and reduce from quality

 

[Dezzmin28]

Good skin! I love Illidan! but doesnt he seem a little... off? like hes disconnected partially to the right side

 

[ike_ike]

O.O he glows in the dark as well! I ...must ...rep you...after I spam some rep.

I have the feeling that when you finally get a graphic tablet the world shall explode and my eyes will burst at the awesomeness unleashed

 

[Darkholme]

do you mean on the unwrap or on the model? the unwrap is weird if thats what you mean. with the pants the right side is actually the back, but on the torso the right side is the right side.

gee man sorry i dont play wow okey???
and WHAT is that ' way to be dumb '
"haha that guy doesnt play wow im going to piss on him "
just because i dont play wow you dont have the right to call me dumb, understood?
AND i ment the alternate form from warcraft 3

great skin but u can still use the alternate form from ingame (now i was talking to darkholme)

 

[Hawkwing]

The feet and wings could use just the slightest highlight. Half of the model is just solid black. The legs are pretty good, but nearly all black again. I know thats what he is supposed to be but no matter how dark someone is they still have some shadows / highlights.

5/5 ..still a kickass skin.

 

[Dezzmin28]

unwrap, its fine, and still great !!! just seemed a little strange

 

[Scathainn]

Like I said before, great model, but the horns are a bit dull. The darkness is a nice touch!

4/5, So says Polyphemus!

 

[Numeror]

Uberlicious as i may say so, I like this dark Illidan skin very much!

 

[LiOneSS]

The newest 4 skins in the section are Illidan :|

 

[Garra]

(i would know i when in a raid group against that demon)
if so WoW skin aren't allowed
else nice work if you actually made it

He did make it. It is supposed to look like the WoW skin.

 

[varsaigen]

both skins are awesome!
@N8-11_GER: use warcraft image extractor II and reduce from quality

yeah. and this one fits your avatar. XD I love it! This is the best I have seen in ages! Great Job! 10/10

 

[Parrothead]

Very nice skin indeed!

Edit : Wee, post 555!

 

[Immhotep]

I'm new here & it's my 1st time downloading skin, I followed the instructions but still couldn't get the cool illidan skin, can someone help? Do I need some special mods to get it?

 

[BanananaHead]

Yep it is good...good job dude 5/5

 

[varsaigen]

I'm new here & it's my 1st time downloading skin, I followed the instructions but still couldn't get the cool illidan skin, can someone help? Do I need some special mods to get it?

Yeah, I have the same problem and I'm used to downloading this stuff. *sigh* I don't think it works.

 

[Immhotep]

Some help from anyone please?

 

[Darkholme]

you import it into a map and if you import it to the proper path (the path i listed may be wrong . . .) with the right filename then the model will use the new skin instead of the default. there are instructions on using custom skins somewhere, i remember reading them when i was a newbie.

you should get war3 model editor and ladiks mpq editor. the mpq editor will allow you to extract models which you can look at with the model editor, and the model editor has all the paths listed under textures.

or convert the model to a txt(mdl) with a converter and just look at it in notepad for the path. but you just have to import it into the map editor, save your map, and then restart the program and the skin should show up.

 

[varsaigen]

I tried that and it didn't work... Help?

Maybe redo the path?

As Darkillidan.blp or Textures\Darkillidan.blp?

 

[Madara Uchiha]

i tried it many times with different paths,but its still the old one.

 

[Darkholme]

i tried it many times with different paths,but its still the old one.

when i get wc3 reset up ill double check my paths and see if that helps. i just did a format reinstall. so presently most of my software isnt on my pc.

 

[Immhotep]

Could you make it a model instead of a skin? That'll surely help

 

[Darkholme]

to use both? just extract the illidan model, and reimport it with a new name after editing the mdl file to use a new skin. its really easy. you should be able to find a tutorial, or if you convert it to a mdl you should be able to fumble through it in notepad to make it work.. i may eventually make a new model, but that won't be right now. too much to do.

 

[varsaigen]

I still, and always will, love this skin. I think its one of your best works! Keep it up!

 

[AirHead]

devinearmy be glad. WoW SUCK!!! (just an opinion pls dont flame) warcraft 3 is better especialy if you mange to make a game with models almost as good and advanced trigger systems to make the game better than WoW. anyway YOUR SKINS ARE AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Darkholme]

Thanks for the compliment!

 

[HeroRonin.]

i have a question i now how to import models but how do i import this without a mdx file some one please tell me!!!

 

[TEddington]

why doesn't this work?!?!? I import the FIRST skin you made, the normal one, and it works...now when I import THIS one, the Illidandark one, the Importer won't let me rename it to Illidan.blp

What is up with this, is there some trick I'm missing? I know that the metamorphosis illidan is the same model but with a special animation name, maybe it has something to do with that?

 

[cHeRoL]

His face looks like a child face,but it's O.K. Keep up the good work.

 

[Darkholme]

its not an easy wrap to work with for the face though. the alternative was having him look like his face melted, so 'child' is as good as it gets.

unless you can tell me why he looks like a child that is

 

[Patio_111]

Wow thats a great skin i love it!
I just have 2 questions if i put it as Textures/Illidan.blp will it substitute the normal illidan or the morphed illidan?
If it substitutes the normal illidan, how can i make it substitute the morphed one?

 

[Darkholme]

ok. ive said this at least 4 times already between here and the non-dark one. this is the last time. if you just import the skin, then it will replace the default one. if you want to use both, then you have to use a custom unit and a custom metamorphosis spell (or change the models listed in the defaults) and you need to have a second (slightly altered) copy of the illidan model - altered to use the other skin. If someone wants to make an all inclusive model of illidan using my skin to make this easier be my guest.

 

[shamanyouranus]

Darkholme, first off, awesome skin. 5/5. But one suggestion. Could you possibly make the wings have green glowey designs on them? That would look even badasser. Oh, and could you make an Illidan model with those blazing green war glaives he has in WoW. That would RULE!

 

[Darkholme]

i Based it on the Wow one as much as possible, and it didn't have green glowing designs on the wings, so they're not gonna happen.

As for glowing weapons, as this is a reskin, adding particles isn't likely. If I make a new model that uses these then I'll definitely consider that Idea. however, I don't have time to do that right now.

 

[Brewmaster]

it looks graet 10/5
i only have to import it?
does it "overwrite" the normal illidan , the dhunter or the evil illidan???
it doesnt work i´ve imported the file and edited the path to Textures\IllidanDark.blp
have i forgoten something?

 

[frostwhisper]

Dude... seriously. Read the freaking description and thread.

 

[Brewmaster]

i have done it like in the readme said but it dont work
ive imported the file and replace the path what i must do next?
ive also restarted the editor but nothing happned

 

[edubugras]

Meh...

It's a nice model, but the runes are pretty blurry and the glaives are 2d... look at him sideways and they disappear, they don't have a back-side and theyre, well... flat. Ruined it for me. 3/5
Plus, how do you make a second illidan model? as in, i want to find the illy model to copy it, change the skin, and then re-import. Help?

 

[Darkholme]

edubugras: this is the dark illidan skin, as in after you use metamorphosis. which means you shouldnt be able to see all the details crisply, hence the glowing runes.

back side on the glaives? you mean that thin little edge? either way, youre complaining about blizzards model on this one, not my skin. course, im guessing you don't know the difference if youre making that comment.

to make a copy of the illidan model you need an mpq editor, such as ladik's. then you need somethin to convert it to n mdl from an mdx, and you need notepad. mess around, or look for turotials, you'll figure it out. it's damn easy.

----------------------------------------------------

Frostwhisper, this is driving me nuts. kill me now.

serioiusly though, someone please close this thread. maybe if people can't post any more they'll actually read my explanation instead of asking over and over.

close the other one too.

 

[frostwhisper]

Report a couple of posts here saying you want to close this to get the mods' attention, Dark.
