anarchianbedlam: Might be useful in a map. Especially for 'building' spells. But you might want to change the preview picture, it looks pretty terrible. The model itself is fine though, simple, low filesize etc.

the whole back area (head, neck, back) isn't very well wrapped, could you fix that?

 

[Bloody_Turds]

Update Fixed, HERES GHOSTLIER VERSION(that looks more like the avatar spell):

 

[Misha]

it hasn't been fixed, lol, this is the old one :3

and..perhaps it could be better if you delete the TC and set the other material to additive

 

[Bloody_Turds]

Whoops there XD, and ingame i like how it looks now, i didnt want to go for quite that ghostly, but ill edit my first post to include that ver sure..

 

[Misha]

it's a lot better now tho i still stand by switching the material to additive and removing TC

currently it blends out weirdly

 

[Bloody_Turds]

it does fade out a little bit teamcolored, but i could change that.. i had to modify the transparency at certain frames for the teamcolor anyways, so moving it 100-200 in either direction is only a few secs

 

[Misha]

tinker a lill bit more and let's see what happens, eh?

 

[Bloody_Turds]

if you mean the slight team colored hue at the end of the fade? although it was by design..? or you mean something else?

 

[clockwork2]

AHAHAHAHA!!!!a fun idea there....

 

[Gen Bloodhorn]

scary...but as from the screenshot his face looks flat

 

[clockwork2]

ahh...yes tis very intimidating...

Maybe make it more blue like the Mountain King avatar effect

 

[Misha]

Maybe make it more blue like the Mountain King avatar effect

that requires stone form texture MK only has, peasants don't

EDIT: try the ghostly one at the beginning of the thread

New style of Avatar...

 

[Sin'dorei300]

Needs more work!

 

[xorkatoss]

looks kinda weird but that's not a reason to give a bad rating so 5/5

 

[Bloody_Turds]

@ his face looks flat, its the same face as the avatar model without the horns, and a greatly shortened beard,

@ needs more work;what would you suggest?, its an sfx, that last 1-1.5 seconds, there is little time to 'study' it ingame to notice the lack of polys, the only other work i thought about maybe doing is mirroring the animations so instead of fading at full yawn, it would come back into the body, or sumthin..

im already a little unhappy with the 18kb price tag. (i like to keep my maps below 500kb )

 

[Misha]

mdlvis can linearize anims and generally make it less filesize..

 

[Bloody_Turds]

yea i can linearize anims to.. i didnt because in this case it would be 1 kb.., and when it comes to sfx animations are more important... besides i figured id leave that for others to do , doesnt it mess models up if you try to edit them again afterwards?.. least what i heard

EDIT: after run through mdlvis got it to 8 kb, in map.., i might just swap that one out

@ make it blue; requires stone texture
False, geoset animations , which it had in the first place, making it blue.. but i didnt want that

EDIT2: @ change the image; there are 2 images posted to it, neither i was to happy with, its just hard to capture the 'feel' with out animation

Useful model. But it looks kinda horrible. Low filesize! 4.5/5.0
