(Model Request) Mario

[Kanaru]

I have a Mario model I would like to be put into WC3 if possible. It's in .3ds format, without animations and has no bones. If anyone is willing to do so, please send me a private message and I'll send you the model. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

*edit* It also has textures (.tga), I forgot to mention.

What is wrong with Dan's model?

 

[Deleted member 126647]

So you want an animator?

Post some pictures of the model so we can see what kind of quality it is.

 

[Kuhneghetz]

Yeah, I wanna see if it's better than my own version.

Hmm..you made this right? Texture looks cnp from something though...

 

[Kanaru]

Of course I did.

EDIT: I hope it's not too many vertices for a WC3 model though.

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Do you have a polycount? It should be alright I think.

 

[Kanaru]

1032.

I'm not sure what a normal count would be, but it sounds well over I think.

 

[Kimbo]

Thats alright, wc3 heroes are "around" that mark.

 

[KhalKun]

Heh and you said you needed a model =p. Your lucky you can make one. But me, pft my computer can't even on the tools for me to learn to make one. Anyways It looks great.

 

[Drp3]

wow great looking model love it i cant make models due to everything not working -.-

 

[HappyTauren]

wow... very nice model... REP

 

[Kuhneghetz]

Wow, your Mario beats my Mario. Though I can see some parts of the model that aren't smoothed.

And you should model the mouth so that Chriz. can animate a talking portrait.

And then you'll have to make a Luigi.

 

[Mechanical Man]

But your Mario has animations, thus wins.

 

[knuxrurlz]

Dang man thats pretty good

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Oh I can't animate it, I just wanted to help him find an animator.

 

[KhalKun]

Shame if he can't find a animator. That model looks great and kicks greater butt if it had animations. Then again I have no use for Nintendo Models in WC. Ruins the Medieval ya know.

 

[Pyritie]

Maybe you could animtransfer from Dan's...?

 

[Deleted member 126647]

They're just Mountain King animations if I recall correctly.

 

[HappyTauren]

dranei bone structure would be good (ANYONE WANTS TO TRANSFER DRANEI BONE STRUCTURE)

Well, I'm not sure about the model, but it's fairly easy to convert the skin. Download the BLP <-> TGA Converter from the Tools section of this site, and drag your .tga skin onto the .exe file for the converter (BLPconv.exe).

The BLP <-> TGA converter can be found here:

And I'm not sure if it works or how to use it, but a .3ds to .mdx converter can be found here:

However you'll still need to animate it...

 

[Kanaru]

I understand that, but if someone is to work on it in 3ds max, they might want to see if there are any deformations in the texture if they were to animate it.

I'm going to start working on a lower-poly Luigi, hopefully I can find an animator by then.
