- Yes, it's about time i decided to make a model.

what i have to do is:
1 - scale it down (need a program to rip Warcraft Models (Need link ;_)
2 - add attachment point to int (sombody has to make a tutorial for this)
3 - export it (need another program for this)

Now you are probably thinking i'm the laziest person on earth but no im not, if sombody could atleast tell me when i need to look up to find some tutorials or the programs it would really help me publish this.

What program are you using?

First you have to export it as MDX... Then you'll probably have to scale it down in Magos' War3 Model Editor and look at another bow attachment to see how it should be positioned, and position it by this example. Then give it a texture and you're done!

 

[Mulgrim]

don't need attachment points for an attachment .. just position the model where all axis meet. and without knowing what program you're using, I can't help.

Ahhh, ok, im using 3dsmax 2010 :O

 

[Deolrin]

I don't know much about 3DS Max, but I think that anything else than 3DS Max 5 and 6 are incompatible with WC3.

3DS max 4 & 5 needs Art Tools to export wc3 models.
3DS max 6 and up (including 2010) needs BlinkBoy's NeoDex script to export wc3 models.

 

[Mulgrim]

you can scale it down in 3ds max itself... but it shouldn't matter because you can do that on the world editor itself.

off topic: how the hell do people get 3ds max outside a community college? it's professional tool more than 2000$, and just for a hobby -.-

I had it once too ... you can download a test version and download somewhere a Key Generator, but that's illegal and anyway it's not allowed to talk about here.
I deleted it because I had a bad feeling, it's not good to do illegal things and if they get you, you will have to pay much much money. Take your hands away from that!
Milkshape and Magos is all you need!
Furthermore, 3DSMax 2010 is much to complex for only wc3 models.
