Lich King

[takakenji]

the death looks like how draenei die in WoW, looks cool though.

 

[Evillizard]

The actuall death animation he uses in wow (I looked at the model, he does have a death animation) is the human death, but this is much cooler.

Wrong. His death animation is where the Helm of Domination drops and he tries to take it and falls to the ground. 3.3 PTR death.

GIF or it didn't happen?

[Dionesiist]

I feel sorry for him.

 

[Kwaliti]

 

[Evillizard]

I think he needs to jump a bit, and when he's raising the sword it's a bit slow.

 

[Kwaliti]

One more animation to go 'till finalization stage!

 

[Hawkwing]

Can I see that one from the side?

 

[X.e.r.e.X]

Soon done, eh?

Son, I am proud.
Btw did you ever upload gif about the stand ready animation?

 

[takakenji]

he should walk instead of run, makes him more badass.

 

[X.e.r.e.X]

He has walk and run animation.

 

[takakenji]

oh, i feel stupid now D:

Browse somewhere back. There are multiple versions. The one which is the most steady is the final one.

Scratch that, I never uploaded the final version.

 

[Evillizard]

That's because you are.
Jk
So, It's almost done?
I think a day or two after you release this Obama will make you the president of the united states.

Close, but not really that close.

I still have to add effects, attachments, etc. and make a portrait.

 

[Mulgrim]

camera or portrait?

what kind of effects? and what attachments ?

I MUST KNOW

 

[Sunchips]

This will be a resource used by alot of people (y)

you should make a strangulate animation

he holds his arm 180 degrees focusing on his enemy wich is floating in the air by the terrible lich king's grip of darkness

 

[babmer]

This is brilliant sir.

I am inspired - keep workin! =)

Dude, he isn't Darth Vader to Force Grip people.

 

[babmer]

If it is of any importance to you mr Kwaliti, next wednesday there is likely to be a new cutscene released depicting the lich kings final battle and death.

Incase your creative juices were wondering ;o.

 

[Sunchips]

yeah I know i was thinking of the strangulate spell detah knights have combined with the death grip spell they have

I'm pretty much done with the animations. Thanks for the info though.

 

[Hawkwing]

creative juices

Sounds tasty. I don't think the death needs to be too climactic... It would get annoying if every time he died he would go through a lengthly series of dramatic poses.


Edit: However, some form of an alternate death animation that doesn't play regularly could be cool for the sake of cinematics.

 

[Evillizard]

Yea. I simple "falls over dead" is nice. Like Illidan's Death animation, short and sweet.

 

[Dionesiist]

I hate your ability to make credible run animations... I fail at those > Good job, dude.

 

[Lich_king2]

This goes far beyond brilliant! Actually it would go if i could go to next page if there wasn't the page bug

 

[Kwaliti]

Omnidirectional spell animation.

 

[Dentothor]

omg the effect on the sword is just pure sex.

 

[Evillizard]

is just pure sex

Wanna know what else is pure sex?

I was about to say that that you needed to add the frosty thingy on the sword, but you were remembered
Imo, his head is following his hand too much.

 

[Teldrassil]

Helmet as attachment model for Villager Male please,

and he looks and moves great, I think his feet could extend a little more and the animations appear slightly... stiff, kind of like lego people, but I guess that's just how warcraft3 rolls.

 

[Mulgrim]

Those eyes... those sexy sexy glowing dead eyes...

 

[Kwaliti]

Helmet as attachment model for Villager Male please,

I'll do it... eventually.

Meh, it's Milkshape. One more day of animating that model and I would've killed myself.

On a side note, everything is set up on the main model. Only the portrait remains to be made.

 

[takakenji]

the head should follow his hand less, he looks like one of those old rockers.

 

[Mulgrim]

the head should follow his hand less, he looks like he's saying SCORE!

fixed for accuracy

 

[Kwaliti]

If I were going to cast a spell that affects everything around me, I'd pretty much be concentrated on what I'm doing and casting.

 

[babmer]

You're going to make a lot of people very happy =), take your time.

 

[I3lackDeath]

It is unbelievable how fast this progressed, especially the animations you provide us with. Are you actually using ingame-textures? Because I can't believe you could do this with ingame-textures alone. Splendid!

 

[babmer]

Forgive my ignorance, but do portraits generally take a long time to do? Just curious ;o.

you can just add a camera on Wc3 Model Editor, or if you want make a whole new model for it

You're the goddamn best.

I am extremely greatful for people like you in modding communities, i hope you continue all the way through to mod in sc2!

Team Glow? D:

Team Glow? D:

You can add it yourself if there's need via attachments

Better this way. Sometimes team color / glow just ruins epic models D:

 

[Hawkwing]

That's true. I've never done it before myself, so I never remember.

 

[RaijinSpark]

agreed, team color should never be added, it freaking ruins it..

This is one of the most epic model i've ever seen...

 

[Foulfrost]

I know I'm only a nub here but way to go mate, awesome model!
Just to bad he doesn't seem to use the right animations. e.g. he uses omnicast all the time.
Is there a way I can fix that?

That's all the object editor work. To use spell throw, you must add 'throw' as a required animation name to that spell. For walking and running, you have to experiment with 'Art - Animation - Run Speed' and 'Art - Animation - Walk Speed' as you like. The only thing that's required is for Run speed to have a higher value than Walk speed. If you do it properly, normally the model will run, but if the unit's movement speed drops due to, e.g. Slow, the model will switch to walk animation.
