Since there isn't any StarCraft II request section yet I'll just post this here.

So, I've been working on this project, Keeper, for quite a while now and things are slowly picking up. However, I'm lacking visual resources, such as blocks, which as a result are ruining the overall atmosphere. (If you've watched the videos, now heavily outdated, I've uploaded you'll understand what I mean)

If you're interesting in helping I'm basically requesting a block, a simple cube with the 'hidden' texture wrapped around it. The format has to be one SC2 can read, which is as far as I can recall m3.

Of course, credits will be given.

Thanks in advance.

Here are the texture and shape of the model I'm looking for.

EDIT: Decided to simply make the texture smaller. Get it here: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...67710-simple-cube-model-request-texture_2.dds

They have a cube model in the editor.

You can probably just modify the texture paths and use that.

The reasons why I'm not doing that is because I can NOT do data editor related stuff because can't find my way around it. I'm a coder only.

PS: And the 2nd reason why I haven't made the model myself is because I don't possess a 3d editor that can export in m3, and I suck at 3d modeling.

I did try to export a box with that texture.dds, but I got a error so I can't do it. But when I converted the mold.jpg, to a .dds the size went from 65 kb to 355 kb.

That's odd. Have you tried exporting with a different image to see if it might just have been an image corruption?

I also seem to get a gigantic file size. Perhaps I should decrease the image a bit.

EDIT: Really small image.

I still haven't started using the sc2 editor after beta but when I do my guess would be - Blender the free tool to export to M3. I call it a tool because it's horrible to work with it and I like making a mesh and what I can in ms3d then just export. But Blender requires Python and that also gives error, just letting you know how you could export to M3. I still haven't started working around SC2 to see how Blender does that.

My friend who does 3D modeling using Blender hasn't found a working m3 exporter so I gave up on that.

I'd appreciate if people could keep this thread as clean as possible and not post irrelevant information that there isn't any use of.
