Necropolis Reforged Beta Style

This bundle is marked as pending. It has not been reviewed by a staff member yet.
The necropolis serves as the central command structure of the undead army. Lumber harvested by ghouls is processed, and loyal acolytes train for tasks from their undead masters. Even when unattended, the vengeful spirits of the dead protect the necropolis from enemy attackers. In time, this structure can be further modified to become the Halls of the Dead. After that, it also may turn into a Black Citadel.

How to import
If you want both normal necropolis and beta necropolis: just import 6 files to your map, you must remove "war3imported\" in the path of BC_ReforgedBetaBirth.mdx, BC_ReforgedBetaDeath.mdx , HOTD_ReforgedBetaBirth.mdx , HOTD_ReforgedBetaDeath.mdx , if not the model won't work correctly

Necropolis Reforged Beta Style (Model)

Another amazing model from Z. I really-- I just love everything about this one. I consider this "the version that makes sense" because the T2 and T3 upgrades have canals with the green liquid flowing down. And I was expecting a flood in the game, but the pool makes much more sense. :grin:

Good job, and keep it up! Looking forward to your next project, whilst this one is a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for me. Also, this model needs to be approved ASAP!
 
Do you have any plans to merge this into a single "model" that uses stand upgrade animations like the original town halls do?
I believe that this is what the vanilla Necropolis/Halls of the Dead/Black Citadel is. They are merged in one model, but their birth and death model are separated from the main. I might be remembering it wrong, so someone can correct me on this.

In Reforged they split to many files in all models :birth, death and upgrade. I think they do this because the model is too big to working. Without LODs geoset I still feel lagging when editing( imagine in original model,each geoset has LODs geoset and then they merge all to 1 model. I think my pc will KaBooooom when open this )
 
Follow-up question - if I don't use the birth and death animations provided, will it use the default Necropolis ones?
No,because model has birth,death,upgrade attachment and the path was set to as the name of birth, death I provided so if you dont import them so the model wont have anything when death or birth. So,if you want to use default Necropolis, you must change the name of old one like the new one
