@Retera could you lengthen the handle of the axe to make it look like a long-axe? As a final request.

 

[SonicFlare101]

Hey retera. On the heavy version when he runs with his sword in game it makes awierd sound. Like someone. Throwing a rock at a rock.could you pls remove it.?

 

[BunnyAng]

Pegasus Request. New..

Nice. I'll take a look at it. And thanks for the suggestion.

Edit: I think I'll request one another time. It's a flaming black pegasus (I've been waiting for a long time for that pegasus). I'll let you know later.

Edit 2: Here's the image of it. I need it to have the animation set for both land and air. It also needs at least an attack animation too. Don't rush for this one. I'll wait for the others to pass first.



So sorry for requesting very frequently.

 

[Kyrbi0]

(It sounded like Zyne is going to busy for a while, so I went ahead and made something)

Feel free to attack my little Batrider remake, if you get bored. : )

 

[Retera]

@sonicflare101 You're welcome

This evening I may have time to continue addressing requests.

Edit: Didn't see this page. I definitely will be able to find the source of a stray sound like you were talking about, and should be able to fix it this evening/afternoon.

As for other requests, we'll see what I have time to finish this weekend. Hopefully a lot!

 

[MasterTrainer]

You're welcome

This evening I may have time to continue addressing requests.

If only there was something we could do for you in return...

 

[Retera]

Attached are a longer-handled runed axe and a fixed version of the BERanger that has the sound during walk removed.

Guys, new request here:

I just need a simple attachment. A cube that hovers in the air. Black would be a good color for it.

This is how it would look like.

An acolyte would be using it so that's the closest picture I could provide.

EDIT: You can ignore the cube request for now but I really need this new request of mine to be made as soon as possible coz it's for the mini-mapping contest. X3

Currently, I'm using the Tree of life as a kind of house, and I'm making its indoor. The thing I need is a wall with a night elf-ish texture that looks like it could be present inside the tree of life.

I would like to request a simple cubish rectangle(simple wall) using the texture of any night-elf building (like the one I attached). So, thanks in advance. :3

Kinda replaced my current request. X3

 

[Retera]

Progress report:

Seth Map Filesize - I was thinking about that Sphinx model, and it struck me that if you were not using the Obsidian Statue form I could cut it out. So, I did. Attached is a version of the Sphinx that is less than half of the original filesize, because I removed the "alternate" Obsidian Statue animations. I also threw in a portrait, if you want that.

Modified Troll Batrider - I was thinking about how you were saying animation reworks would be hard, and so I threw together a little WIP of the sort of thing I could do with the Matrix Eater. It's got some serious bugs (i.e. little holes in geometry if you look close, parts of the model going through itself, etc) but it gets the point across. I basically merged a Troll Berserker land unit with a Troll Batrider.
Edit: Another test, merged batrider with wind rider. Also, I was trying to learn to use mdlvis (which I've actually never really used before) and I tried to correct the walk animation in the _mdlvis one.

Edit: Fixed Sphinx portrait to have the same kind of headpiece as the model.

 

[huy60vn]

NEW REQUEST:
I need a Scarlet Onslaught Flag :/ It can only have 1 var.

 

[Retera]

I got you on my list

I've just been a bit behind this weekend, and I'm trying to go chronologically in order of request.

 

[MasterTrainer]

@Retera could you lengthen the Runed Axe's handle?

 

[Retera]

Attached are a longer-handled runed axe and...

It should be on that earlier post for ya

Or does it need to be even longer still?

 

[MasterTrainer]

Oh sorry I didn't notice.

Okay thanks again!

 

[colinjames12]

Oh Retera, I'm gonna use the obsidian statue animations too, don't put it out. But can I just use a skin? I'm not using the destroyer nor the obsidian statue models so I think all I need is the skin. That's gonna reduce the whole filesize significantly.

The only problem with the obsidian statue is that its wings doesn't look good.

I'm actually ok with the Sphinx already, no portrait is okay, I just need the model itself, or skin.
What I really need now is my other requests. The Seth creatures and the giant blue aura.

EDIT: I think it would be better if you remove the wings for both the destroyer and the statue form. So I think I'm gonna need a model for that. I don't need any wings for the statue form. The destroyer form is okay already, what I need is the statue form without wings.

You can remove animations too right? You can remove all morph animations for the models and all the animations for the statue form except for the spell anim and stand anim. I ain't gonna use them anyway,

 

[SonicFlare101]

Thanx retera

 

[El'Dragon]

any news on my request?

Modified Troll Batrider - I was thinking about how you were saying animation reworks would be hard, and so I threw together a little WIP of the sort of thing I could do with the Matrix Eater.

This is amazing! I really appreciate this. This really opens up almost any possibility for this unit.

Also, I totally hate you as well ... I've basically built much of the Troll race around the idea of replacing the in-game units... Except the Batrider, which was so specific, I was forced to make something similar (heavy flying siege, :<, instead of light). And now, having built up the rest of the race with that Unit Role taken care of (T3 heavy siege & flyer), the opportunity to change that is both tantalizing & frustrating. xD

You'll have to give me some time to reorient my life re-organize things.

 

[NagaRulez]

Can i request for a coral golem?

 

[MasterTrainer]

Can i request for a coral golem?

You might want to tell Retera more about your request.

 

[Retera]

I spent a lot of time trying to decide how to attack the Seth Requests.
Gave it a shot at the Anubis, not sure what I think yet, but here's a WIP if you would like to comment:

No custom textures for this Anubis guy yet, just wc3 textures and shapes

Also I fixed my computer by re-installing Windows!

 

[colinjames12]

Stop now with the Anubis, Retera. It looks great already. The only thing I want you to do now is to make it blend with the Sphinx, the Skeletal mage (a brown team color), and the other Seth models. They all have brown team colors btw.

I'm not visualizing really complex models, except for the Sphinx, so that's perfectly fine.

EDIT: Did you see my last comment about the Sphinx?

 

[El'Dragon]

any of u doing my request?
i kinda get nervous now lol

 

[Thiiago]

Hii i need for my map just two version of this irollan druid:
http://www.tiendabakugan.com/images/CHF_S_DRUIDA.jpg?osCsid=niedmvsiik4a6i5hq67sdcpue5
The first version and more important is an female druidess version, and an other male druid version. Based in the imagem druid for the two ^^
ps: Has how the male druid version have the "Priest" head?? '-'

Thanks

 

[Retera]

@Deathforge Don't worry too much. I've been a bit busier this week and last weekend, but I definitely will address all of the requests when I get to them.

@NagaRulez
Your request is on my mental to-do list

@Thiiago
Your request is on my mental to-do list

EDIT: While away from my home machine and the Seth stuff I'd been working on, I started making some Tree of Life-based wall type objects.
Attached are some -- Hera_, let me know what you think so far / what else you would like. I would like to fix the texture on the top of the basic square one, but I have to do some real life things right now so it'll have to wait.

 

[colinjames12]

Hey, uhmm, I was about to request a model that is based off another model that was made by someone here on hive. I know you're supposed to ask for permission first, but his last activity was back in 2009.

Here's the model by the way.
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...8918/?prev=search=illidan%20blade&d=list&r=20

Is there any other way I could get someone to do my request? Unless you do the whole model again. If someone's going to do it, I don't want you to make it look exactly like the picture below, I want it to look like the Illidan Blademaster model so it would look Warcraft-ish.

If you can do that, here's the request:

I want the model to have an alternate form, one with the sword and one without the sword. When not holding the sword, he's supposed to be faster in terms of attack and movement. The sword is supposed to be huge so when he's holding the sword, his slower.

Here's a picture of the sword. And the one holding it.

EDIT: I'm really sorry if I have a lot of requests already but I'm just gonna leave this here for anyone who is interested.

 

[GreeN!X]

Hera_, let me know what you think so far / what else you would like. I would like to fix the texture on the top of the basic square one, but I have to do some real life things right now so it'll have to wait.

These are pretty much what I needed. thanks :3
No need to make things perfect or anything.

soz i was just checking that someone is even doing it, either way another request coming up(sorry about it ):
i want you to make a grenadier(unarmed):

Modified Troll Batrider - I was thinking about how you were saying animation reworks would be hard, and so I threw together a little WIP of the sort of thing I could do with the Matrix Eater. It's got some serious bugs (i.e. little holes in geometry if you look close, parts of the model going through itself, etc) but it gets the point across. I basically merged a Troll Berserker land unit with a Troll Batrider.
Edit: Another test, merged batrider with wind rider. Also, I was trying to learn to use mdlvis (which I've actually never really used before) and I tried to correct the walk animation in the _mdlvis one.

Alright, while I'm still at work determing exactly what this guy should do/carry, I think I can decide on two things:

1) The original rider is fine (he'll have adjustments), no need to throw the Berserker on there (but thanks ), and

2) He needs some adornments or armor in the mean-time. This is a bit more ambiguous, so I'd like to know your thoughts as an artist, as to what would look good/fitting.

Armor (less important)
- Some kind of armor, fitting for an aerial warrior. This unit is meant to be bigger & stronger than the normal Batrider (but still not as armored as, say, a Dwarf; too heavy to fly after all ).
- Perhaps a thick, spiked shoulder-pad with an attached Bandolier? A series of overlapping shoulder-pauldrons that run down the arm? A medium Buckler attached to the non-weapon arm? A leather helmet on the bat/rider? Etc.

Basically just like it says, need to throw some armor/adornments & such on him, to help give him some 'weight' & a bit of a sense of 'might' as compared to the flighty (Orcish Horde-aligned) Troll Batrider. Let me know what your thoughts are.

~

3) Off the top of your head, if I were going to implement a sort of "Swooping Dive"* animation for a spell or attack, is there anything in-game that that can be ripped from? Similar question for a "Bat-Bite" and a "Rider Sword-Slash" animation (don't necessarily throw them on there, more asking if you as a modeller know of existing animations you can grab those from)

//EDIT
*Perhaps stealing the Naga "Submerge" for a "swooping dive"... (then again, dealing with all those snake-like lower-body bones might be problematic...)

 

[Retera]

Had a little time today, threw together a scarlet onslaught flag and a blue beam aura thing for that sphinx.

 

[envenger]

There is a model in WC3

"UI\\Feedback\\SelectionCircleEnemy\\SelectionCircleEnemy.mdx"

The model doesn't has a death animation. Can you export the model, add a death animation to it?

The death animation should be as short as possible. No actual animation is needed. I want the model to just die in 0.1 seconds or as fast as possible so it could be removed faster.

Without the death animation, if I remove a effect it takes 5 seconds to get remove. I want to remove instantly. No other model editing required just add a death animation to the model.

 

[Retera]

I had a second, and adding that death animation was almost instantaneous with the matrix eater, so here it is:
Let me know if anything goes wrong, and maybe I'll get to it later. It was invisible in the editor until I realized that its animations were named "small" "medium" and "large" and so I changed it to "stand small" "stand medium" etc so that it would show up.

Works great but a small problem now. The thing is appearing bigger than it appeared before. I guess by default it is showing stand large or stand medium animation. Can you keep only stand small animation and delete the other.

The death part is working perfectly.. Thank you


Is there a way to change how a special effect works? Like sometimes I can use the stand small and other times I can use the stand medium of the same model? If possible can you separate the 3 animation into 3 models with death animation?

Thanks for Help-Me

 

[Kaizer]

I'm back!!!

EDIT: gonna look for simple requests now that I can do

 

[MasterTrainer]

Oh hey can I request a Kael Model that is enveloped and shrouded in golden flames?

 

[Kaizer]

I'm having a hard time identifying requests which are not yet finished, for all those who made request and not yet fulfilled can you guys comment them so I can make some of them and update the first page

 

[BunnyAng]

Nice. I'll take a look at it. And thanks for the suggestion.

Edit: I think I'll request one another time. It's a flaming black pegasus (I've been waiting for a long time for that pegasus). I'll let you know later.

So sorry for requesting very frequently.

Zyne, add this to the end of the list .

 

[MasterTrainer]

Zyne my last unfinished request is here:
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/2340198-post337.html

 

[Retera]

Hello all, I started working tonight but the Theron Sentinel took me like 2 and a half hours. Also it still needs to have its file size stuff reduced. Nonetheless, attached are the Priest of Seth, Guardian of Seth, touched-up Anubis, and first draft of Theron Sentinel.
Also size-fixed version of Enemy Selection Circle thing.

Gotta go, hope you guys like them!

Edit: All of these zips are corrupt. Do not download them. Go here instead.

 

[MasterTrainer]

@Retera could you do my request?

 

[Kaizer]

I assume that Retera is working on all of that

 

[MasterTrainer]

How about you work on my request?

 

[Kaizer]

Hmm, I think I can do that, I'll just use the shroud behind cinematic Kil'ja... Recolor and scale it

Edit: I'm thinking of changing the progress table... I'm thinking of changing it to:
Retera and I will each have a list of requests and it will show what we are currently working on.
Therefore it is much easier to understand and update

 

[MasterTrainer]

Do you think you can do it and finish it today?

 

[Kaizer]

I did my best lol, unfortunately I'm not good with Particles -___-

sorry this is what I came up with, I know it sucks

 

[MasterTrainer]

Okay it's really close now can you just make Kael look golden? Like add a golden tint?

 

[Kaizer]

wow really? I could make his skin golden using photoshop

 

[MasterTrainer]

Yeah, golden like that. But could you also make the fire engulf his upper body, not just the lower part?
