great model

 

[Skipper]

Isn´t this almost similiar to War3 FrozenThrone Druid of Talon?

 

[A Void]

This druid has different texture, has a different coat and has horns. It also has some different effects.

 

[Solu9]

I'm curious. How did you get your hands on these beta models/textures?

 

[A Void]

I cant tell cause it will no longer be a secret.
But fear not!, I will upload them here.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

he probably downloaded wc3 beta from internet, and used mpq extractor to get models from it. just my guess though..

 

[Deleted member 212788]

Hmmm? I didn't know that the archers used to have more clothing in the beta xD At any rate, the model is a nice one, btw. Please link me a picture of the footmen, swordsmen and high elven archer, will you? I want to see them, might be just what I need. Thanks in advance.

I liked most of the beta models better than the now original Warcraft models.

 

[Solu9]

Really. Just looked through this gallery.

Most of the stuff is way cooler than the cartoon world we have now.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

That's role playing strategy, alpha stage of wc3. Damn it would be cool to experience the campaign from that aspect...

 

[Solu9]

It looks like Wow-craft 3.

They had an abomination hero, and they removed it? Not fair -,-

 

[Systemfre1]

Can anyone get these tilesets
They are damn awesome.

EDIT: Also those trees... so much better looking then the ones in game.

i test this model.. but dont work

 

[Hermit]

i test this model.. but dont work

It doesn't work because it has particle emitters which use paths of non-existing models (units\nightelf\DruidOfTheTalon\FeatherPurple1.MDL and units\nightelf\DruidOfTheTalon\FeatherPurple.MDL).I changed them to default ones (SharedModels\FeatherPurple1.MDL and SharedModels\FeatherPurple.MDL), and it works now. Just to mention, this Druid lacks Spell Alternate animation(Casting Faerie Fire in bird form), because it wasn't added until the Frozen Throne. Also the provided texture of the "Raven" is unnecessary, since it is the same as the one in game.

What about the alpha druid of the Talon XD

Oh yea! I want to see if Blizzard made those Alpha Mods too.

Warcraft's been cartoon like for as long as it's been around. It would be awesome if this dude could get his hands on the old Paladin model, where he held the hammer with both hands.

Lame Reasons and Another Question

This is the general cop-out answer for those who don't want to share for various reasons that are usually selfish. I bet he doesn't want to share because then others would post the models and steal his possible rep, either literal rep or figurative.

My question is where someone could have gotten the alpha/beta version of Warcraft 3 back when it was being made (like did Blizzard put out demos or have a website set up or what?).

 

[Deleted member 219079]

He's just downloaded the beta, I've as well, it isn't that hard. Find it from internet and use mpq viewer to extract the models from the mpq to your map-

 

[Zeatherann]

Sweet, thanks jondrean.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

Just tell me if you found it, maybe I can help you find it if you need help
