Need Gondolin (LOTR) Models and Skins

[MMG_God]

I am looking for someone who can make some models for a Gondolin map I am working on. The map is going to be a new gamestlye for the most part to wc3 and it would be really cool to have some nice models intended for it. If you like LOTR but dont know what Gondolin is, here is a link to fill you in on a lot of stuff...http://valarguild.org/varda/Tolkien/encyc/articles/g/Gondolin/Gondolin.html#WhiteWing

Also, here are some screenies of the map so you know what its for. If your interested please just respond here or email me at [email protected]

*Bump*

Got a couple replies but still looking for more if anyone is out there.

The main ones I am looking for are...
A good gondolin melee soldier and archer
Something intended to be Glorfindel or Ecthelion
Tuor
And possibly a Turgon

Thanks!

Figures...... I had models from tha_chump, gondorian archers, captain, spearman, swordsman, and wall models + doodads (buildings, gates ect.) for Minas Tirith. But I had to reformat my comp so lost those files. I tried contacting tha_chump but I dont think hes at wc3 campaigns anymore. You can try if you like.

 

[Polar_Bear]

Hey i think i got a good glorfindel model for u ! shall i sent it 2 u over mail or what ?

 

[Eleandor]

no offence, but aint Gondolin supposed to be a round city? beside that, it looks cool

 

[dylan101]

/bump
I just have question about one of the heroes...yea. Um isnt the Balrog supposed to be called Durins Bane. And gothmog is just an Orc Captain right? Just curios, correct me if im wrong.

 

[ben_xuereb]

nice terrain MMG GOD i couldnt be bothered about reading that thing about gondolin but uasly if your making a request it helps for you to sorta say what you want cause it makes me clueless when one of my friends just say can you please make a skin -_-
not that im the best to ask any way XD lol

BTW THIS LOOKS AWSOME CANT WAIT TO SEE IT ^^ put that in the terrain showcase in the maps section it will kick @$$
though i would probly lag out cause of so much doodads lol i got a c12@p computer

 

[Polar_Bear]

Dylan gothmog is morgoth's (melkor) Captain and his a balrog this is from the first age or the age of silmarillion. Gothmog is also one of saurons captains (orc) and durins bane is some random balrog who fleed to khazadum. Thats my idea of it!

 

[Chaosarmy]

have you not read the Fellowship?? Morgoth's Balrog is Durin's Bane. it was "sleeping" in Kazudum and the dwarves awoke it. it killed Durin III and became lord of moria. The one in Kazuadum is the one of Morgoth.

p.s. you are a n00b

LMAO AND YOUR NOT A N00B ha ha :Owned, if you got a problem with noobs take it to the court see if someone cares besides rather then just saying someones a noob why dont you tell them what to do? or what the should do?

 

[Eleandor]

why's my question not being answered? sniff... :?

 

[MMG_God]

Thanks for the help guys, and I would love to see that glorfindel model...my email is [email protected]

Yea, the city was round but because of the way its going to run I didn't think itd matter much, I can always round it off. Its basic terrain is finished with a total of about 6000 doodads so hopefully not to laggy for you, I know a lot of maps that have plenty more.

For the whole balrog deal, morgoth had many balrogs, hes cheif balrog and general during the first age, however, was called Gothmog, the Lord of Balrogs. He died in this battle to a lord of the house of Gondolin named Ecthelion.

Oh and I have those minas tirith models you mentioned. I just am not a big fan of their animations and the horse models are to blocky to use. I might use the foot soldier ones though.

Good stuff and thanks for the responses.

Let me just say YOUR A FUCKING IDIOT, you obviously have no clue to this Gothmog (who most thought to be Morgoth's son but its not possible because Melkor is of the Valar), he is Melkor's captain and dies at the seige of Gondorlin (i think thats the city), Gondorlin was over run because of the attack (which was planned secretly by Morgoth) thus somewhere along those lines called the host of the Valar and they destroyed all evil execpt Sauron some orcs thus leading to the second age (the age of the Numenor)

 

[Polar_Bear]

Draco let the man have a moment of peace..

PS. i doubt im a noob(newb) i have read the silmarillion
2 time (big boi)
and the 3 LotR books...
BTW did u know that the 3 books were meant 2 be one book ??

And MMG_God i will sent the model after a few tweaks on it and u probalby will have to attach weapons and shields on it.

 

[Morrowind135]

Looking great!

Looking excellent! I have a troll skin, but hes a cave troll. I could always make a Troll in armour if you want? i sent you the picture of the cave troll anyhow so let me know if you like it
He's in my avatar also for anybody curious.

 

[Capcy]

Awwww but i like telling people off that go of at others and they are wrong its funny and it gives me something to do.

 

[MMG_God]

Sounds good morrowind, I already like the skin but armor would be great. Thanks.

 

[Polar_Bear]

MMG_God im sorry but the skin cannot be finished until monday.. im i sick and cant do shit...

 

[Chaosarmy]

*sigh*

PS. i doubt im a noob(newb) i have read the silmarillion
2 time (big boi)
and the 3 LotR books...
BTW did u know that the 3 books were meant 2 be one book ??

that aint enough. I suggest you read the 5 history of middle earth books, and yes I know about the three books as one deal. They then seperated it because it was like 2000 pages long.

Let me just say YOUR A **** IDIOT, you obviously have no clue to this Gothmog (who most thought to be Morgoth's son but its not possible because Melkor is of the Valar), he is Melkor's captain and dies at the seige of Gondorlin (i think thats the city), Gondorlin was over run because of the attack (which was planned secretly by Morgoth) thus somewhere along those lines called the host of the Valar and they destroyed all evil execpt Sauron some orcs thus leading to the second age (the age of the Numenor)

I wasnt talking about Gothmog... I was talking about Morgoth's Balrog in Moria. You need to understand what other people post. Anywho... in the fellowship, while they are at moria, and at the end or the return of the king(appendix) it explains all this stuff about the balrog. The Balrog in moria wasnt some random balrog.....thats all I am going to say

p.s. what was the stuff of taking "noob" to court. Its called Amendment I, freedom of speech. unless youare not from US then i have no say in anything.

p.s.s. back to the original topic... nice terraining. no seriously... I havnt seen terraining better than that before. want to gi9ve me any tips because I want Minas Tirith to look just as good as it did in the movie. Question: how would I create the mountain bridge thing on the top of miastirith. It like goes through half the city if you dont know what I mean tell me. Just need to know how you would make that effect.

 

[Polar_Bear]

Chaos Army.

The balrog in moria isent gothmog... cause gothmog died whit Ecthelion of the Fountain.

The balrog in Moria Is Durin's bane as u say but it is no special balrog... or perhaps it is a little stronger than ur reagular Balrog since it has been burrowed in the dirt and gained more power...!
And if it were gothmog i found it weird that gandalf can kill it as gandalf the grey. But feanor were killed when fighting whit him!

 

[MMG_God]

Im not exactly sure which bridge you mean so i'll say my suggestions for both...

If you mean that bridge behind minas tirith that leads into the mountains, I suggest using an arch maybe and make it have mushroom collision and edit its x and Y to make it look right. Then when it looks nice, use invisible platforms to make it walkable (to use invis platforms, set them down then hit ctrl + pg up to move them to the right height.

If you mean that big ass thing running through the whole mid of the city, I would recommend choosing either a good doodad to run through the whole thing and use more platforms, or I would recommend just using the WEU raise height tool and pathing blockers to make it, and then at every underpass just have a warp portal.

Hope that helps, if it doesn't let me know and i'll give it another go.

 

[Capcy]

MMG_God question with those invisable platforms can you walk under them as well?

 

[Mecheon]

Its impossible to get a bridge that you can walk under and over without some trigger work in the Warcraft engine

 

[Capcy]

Yes i know mecheon you have told me before...Im sorry my anger seems on the point of a knife im realy annoyed for some strange reason so i might snap at people :evil:

 

[Eleandor]

p.s. what was the stuff of taking "noob" to court. Its called Amendment I, freedom of speech. unless youare not from US then i have no say in anything.

fftopic:
freedom and US? Don't make me laugh...

 

[1RingToRule]

Wow, this has been a happy topic.... :roll: ....can't we all just get along....I mean really who cares who is the biggest LOTR nerd here. Because I feel bad cus I got a friend of mine into LOTR and he went crazy about it; (he read the Silmarillion god knows how many times) I mean he even started writing a summary of all the people in it and what they did....I mean it became like talking to a dictionary....So my point is....calm down who really gives a D*** if its a "special" Balrog or just some random Balrog....it makes no D*** difference in the world. :?

 

[Polar_Bear]

Well ur quite right.... And maby the tones isent as good
as it should be =)
But cant u ask ur friend about the balrog ... and then we got and experts opinion about it and its over and i can make my model for mmg_god and we will all be happy, happy, happy

 

[MMG_God]

Sounds good fellas.

And to clear this balrog stuff up, there were quite a few balrogs during the first age, strong mair corrupted by Melkor. His cheif lieutenant and lord of balrogs was named Gothmog. Gothmog is the main balrog in this map although there will be others, but he was slain , however, by Ecthelion of the Fountain (A lord of Gondolin and leader of the house of the Fountain). The balrog in moria was just another random Balrog who took shelter there in a deep cave during the time in which the Valar came and ultimately defeated Melkor. He has no name other than Durin's Bane, which he earned after he came out of hiding because he slew the dwarven lord Durin.

Hope that helps, and any further model/skin help would be great on the map

I really dont get what you mean... is there an easier way? best thing would be to just have a custom doodad of the thing.

 

[MMG_God]

Haha thats great. Well what I would do is prob use the destructable wall model and make it have the collision size of a mushroom so you can place it anywhere. Then make it so you can really stretch is out by editing its max and min values. Stretch em out, place em together, then use pathing blockers to close it off and inivisble platforms to make it walkable. Then use waygates to make it so you can move from one side to the other.

Make sense? If not let me know.

dude!!!!!!! read the ******* post. God I said nothing about Gothmog or whatever. and you are not a noob polar. ok I was talking about DURIN'S BANE, the balrog gandalf faught, the balrog the killed Durin II(or the III i dont remember). Get off my case on the fact that I was wrong when i said that Durins bane and the balrog of moria are the same. jeez!!!!!!


p.s. and MMG_GOD your way should work but the "wall" model isnt exactly the same as the bridge thing. Its a fact that I need a model for the thing. the wall doesnt look exactly like it but Ill mess around with your method. If you read my signature I am working on a BFME project. This will included the battle of Osgilith, minas tirith, and the Black Gate. Pretty much the movie of the Return of the king. I got tired of other Minas Tirith maps not being exact to the book. So I am making one that is perfectly true to the book (unless mordor wins then it is not true. good thing it is balanced.)

 

[MMG_God]

PM me and I can help you out a lot more. Would make it easier and I could offer you a few things I am not sure if I am alowed to advertise on this thread.
