General Frank:

Quite useful attachment model. very nice UV-mapping.
Approved. Works ingame.

 

[Arton]

nice model but how to put then on a marine

 

[Fingolfin]

Create a new ability in the ability editor, base it on "sphere". Then you change "art - target" to the path of this model, then change "art - attatchment point" to "hand, right". Give the ability to your marine.
There is a tutorial on this both in the tutorials section and in the modeling forum. Go check there.

I don't know if this will attatch properly on all units, but i know for sure it works perfectly on my helghast models.
I might consider transfering the anims from Kitabatakes model to this so that it can attatch to a wider range of units.

 

[Arton]

ok i have downlodet a marine out weben and i will put a webot to that marine

 

[blek121]

oh, nice you are uploading a model. It was a while ago. Btw, Nice Model. I will use this in my new map.

 

[Hugomath]

Perfect! I just needed a MP40 for a little map of mine. Which weapons are you going to create?

 

[Fingolfin]

Well.. i think i will make my own version of the thompson. The one here in the database is too large in filesize for me.
Also, i will make some rocket launchers, such as the panzershreck and the bazooka.
Hopefully also the russian Degtyarev machinegun, since it is the coolest machinegun ever made.

 

[Hugomath]

Wow! Really nice . Anyways, don't you think you need to make a PPSh-41 or something? Also you might need a flamethrower and MAYBE some rifles, for example the K98, Mosin-Nagant and M1 Garand .

 

[darkdoom]

nice! 5/5

 

[Panda]

Great work!

 

[crimson fire]

looks great

 

[Fingolfin]

@Hugomath, i was originaly thinking of those rifles you mentioned, but making the extra anims for my soldiers would take too much space, and it wouldn't contribute to gameplay that much.

Anyway, i don't need to make a PPSh, i'm going to use this model instead.

 

[Diazz0229]

Very nice model. I'd like to see a pack of WW2 models, or maybe Company of Heroes like map.

 

[Assassins-Creed]

Nice,this model is a MUST for World War games.

 

[Tleno]

German soldier?! Oh yes, that's whay we definetly need! We could asl ouse the allied and soviet troops too...

 

[Fingolfin]

I'm making those too. Still in the mesh stage though.
Check out my project thread

Here's an image of the soldier model:

 

[RiotZ]

Will this attach to a Konstrukt ghost? And if so at which attach... Left, Right, or Weapon?

On-Topic: Achtung! Zee Germans are coming 5\5.

Edit: Wow epic models Fingolfin, I'm still waiting on those Ruskies. xD.

 

[Fingolfin]

No, it won't. But if you want to use it with konstrukt characters, try using AnimTransfer and transfer animations from a unit that has alternate animation tags, which i know that most of kitabatakes models have. I'm thinking of doing that myself on this one.

otherwise, you can try editing it in magos model editor - just open the model edit window and select all vertices, then go transformations>rotation, and chose whatever rotation required.

Zombie.'s friends(?)

I'm making those too. Still in the mesh stage though.

Here's an image of the soldier model:

Wow, I was waiting for this model for so long.. seriously, you should make allied and soviet troops too! imagine how much people would thank you for that, how many maps would use these...

 

[Hugomath]

Yeah you are right! Hive needs some non-marine textured models of soldiers. I'm tired of just seeing soldiers with marine armors.

 

[Tleno]

marine in non-futuristic map makes me puke like hell, twice. There are no good infantry models to which you could attach gun models, there are only few suitable for this purpose of modern/ WW2 infantry models, but there are none that would really suit it...

 

[Fingolfin]

Since it is such a popular demand, i might just release this model prematurely to promote the project.
Perhaps in a few days you will find it in the database.

 

[Tleno]

Yes! Yes! Upload it! Upload my precious! Upload all of them*!

*translation: The upload of whole pack of WW2 troops will positively effect your map popularity, making it more popular than Dota**.

**maybe.

Offtopic: Hey, 777 posts, Fingolfin!

 

[Leeroy]

Reminds me of CoD's nazi zombies. *grin*

 

[buraxia3]

good job 4/5

 

[darkdeathknight]

Mapping is really good.

 

[xorkatoss]

this is fucking awesome !!! 5/5
can you also make a rocket launcher? xD

 

[Fingolfin]

Uhmm.. any specific kind?
Try searching the database, there are quite a few rocket launchers here already..

 

[Hugomath]

I can only tell the: M8 Bazooka(U.S) and the Panzersreck(Germany).

 

[Manuval]

Great! A modern gun. 5/5.

Will you do it since warcraft has increased its map limit to 128 Mb? :0

Not sure if it would make any difference since the soldiers are so small, you can barely see the rifles in the first place. However, there's a handful of other new models coming, don't worry.
