Moo cow skin/model

[SilverSong]

All I really need is a dairy cow, nice spots on white fur coat, please use pre-existing war3 model.

This is for the time management game. Tech Tree - Dairy Farmer.

Well, I've been meaning to make a cow for some time now, so I think I'll do it.

Thank you so much!

No problem. It's a model that could be useful to many people.

Just delete the "war3mapImported\" from the paths when you import it to make it work.

I am kind of new at this, how do I make the model show up in warcraft 3 editor so I can add it to tech trees?

It's imported, I just don't see it at all when I try to make a new custom unit.

when you make a new unit, at the top there is an "Art" section for all teh data for the unit. IN about the middle of that section is says somthing like "art - model", double click that. Then it will come up with a list box full of models. Go to the middle box, that says "Imports", and change it to the "Cow.mdl"

I just got her to show up in WE.

What is up with the red peace sign on her butt?!

Critisisms... her udder is just abnormally oversized there... haven't you ever seen a dairy cow before?

Otherwise, animations look good.

So basically to make it better, move the udder up a little higher into the body, or make body larger and hang lower. Flatten tail to hang straight down, give cow a pair of shoulders, and please reskin!

I know, it is absolutely not easy to make something so complex, especially w/low polys. I think I spent 20+ hours once making a spring work for a plastic stapler model I made in high school, and even then I was so bad at rigging, when I animated it the spring jumped out of the stapler and went bouncing off on it's own.

The red symbol is the TC, supposed to be somthing simular to a Brand. I exagerated the Udder because if I made it too small it's be ahd to see ingame.
