Starcraft 2 custom models?

[Duke]

Hello. Modding cumminty is always using custom models. It very useful for sure and make models for Warcraft is not "very hard" (I still cant make one). But SC2 has much better graphic and I doubt if our modeleres will be able to make models, that wont be totally out. What do you think?

 

[redmarine]

There are plenty of talented modelers but the problem is that they aren't able to make high quality models. They already have those units who got cut and the Tauren Marine but could make some more if they want to.

 

[HappyTauren]

Err dude, there are people who can model better than for warcraft III standards, there are plenty of them.

 

[Duke]

Hmm how many do think? I hope it lot of.

You could, you know, just search for mods for games like Oblivion, Unreal Tournament 3 and other games with great graphics. Then you see how good modelers there can be.

Also the thing is that for Warcraft 3 no matter how great you are there must be a limit for the quality of your model, otherwise it won't work or it will crash the game or something along those lines.

Same is for Starcraft 2, and I am expecting there to be huge amounts of modellers.

 

[HappyTauren]

Maybe, here is a list:

TDR
SuPa-
jigrael
olofmoleman (he CAN model for games better than wc3, believe it or not)
Whitehorn
Sansui
+Any other guys who can do fairly high poly shit.

Yeah, but there is still many models which quality is bad even for WarCraft.

Anyway, hope these good modelers will move to sc2

EvilIllidanX is worth to mention.

Fuckyeah, why did I forget him D:

 

[punwisp]

what about general frank? Or he doesnt make high quality models?

 

[Chaos Overlord]

He doesnt scratch model (from the last time I checked, which was a long time ago, I admit), but I bet he will be able to work his magic with the new SC2 stuff anyways.

 

[Jaakko]

Even if nobody ever did a single custom model that won't stop me from playing around with the SC2 map editor. I can't wait to play the game! =) But I would still bet that there will be some really good custom model for SC2.

 

[punwisp]

Lol, a armored space grunt! or a SC2 grunt would be uber, even a peon

 

[Callahan]

I hope we'll be able to import mdx or convert mdx to be handled by Sc2 =D.

Anyway I could make a scratch model but i don't have the patience for that.
Making a model for Sc2 will take much longer and more focusing work.
I think there will not be so many custom Sc2 models as Wc3 ones.

I still could make SFX though.

What do you mean they are not able ? Dude we are able Believe me
Besides there will be new features available like IK solvers for better animation , normal maps for more details (I hope and much more Just cant wait to model for SC2 !!!!!

 

[redmarine]

Dude, that was the most badass necroposting I've ever seen lol.
Just remember to not post in old threads on now on mkay?

 

[rober artua]

Ok Sry for that failed attempt I just hadnt any idea . However it is a bit strange coz the post is not closed for replies yet . But who cares If this is a site rule of course I will follow it No worries

 

[PurplePoot]

It takes 6 months of inactivity for a thread to be closed.

 

[LordDz]

I wonder how long it takes until someone makes all the WC3 models..

 

[redmarine]

A couple of years at least. It would be awesome for a roman total war like map with mini units.

 

[LordDz]

Years? I give it one year.

 

[HappyTauren]

I give it never. It'd be dumb.

 

[Devine]

aw ... No one will ever make WC3 models in sc2 ...
first of .... because of the huge lazyness around here ...
second ... just choose it yourself i'm to lazy to comment this any further.

 

[Steel_Stallion]

The Irony is that everyone wants spacish futuristic models for Warcraft because there are not many.

While in Starcraft II everyone will be after anything medieval and instead of Spacey future warfare conversions we will be seeing some sort of attempted medieval fantasy take over.

 

[Gilles]

People made SC units for WC3 which is even more dumb.

 

[HappyTauren]

I'm talking about remaking wc3 in sc2. WHY?

 

[LordDz]

I give it never. It'd be dumb.

For the same reason people made SC1 into Wc3:

Better graphics.
+ A phys engine.

 

[Newuser]

I'm talking about remaking wc3 in sc2. WHY?

Well, remaking it would be pointless since WC3 is a good engine and can be customized easily(unlike Starcraft's editor which was limited).

However, there are plenty of reasons to want Warcraft 3 models on Starcraft 2.

One reason is the SC2 editor is more powerful(how powerful, we'll just have to see), while wanting Warcraft 3 units/models or the medieval(ish)/magic theme on Starcraft 2.

So for example, lets say someone made a really good map on Warcraft 3 that uses Warcraft 3 models and the map relies on the "Warcraft 3 theme"(AKA, a space or alien theme like Starcraft 2 wouldn't make sense).

Starcraft 2 comes out, with a powerful new editor that makes WC3's editor look like junk(though we don't know yet), and that person wants to "remake" their map on SC2 but using the same models/terrain as in their WC3 map.

That's an example of a reason a person might want WC3 models in Starcraft 2.

 

[HappyTauren]

When making a wc3 map you use "what fits best". You'd like to have all models customied, yet you can't. Hence why remaking wc3 on sc2 engine would be pointless. Everyone is sick of wc3 by now.

 

[VeljkoM]

You can saythat to Starcraft , Warcraft 2 but they are still being played.
There will be always someone who will play warcraft 3.
So why would not be there warcraft models.
It would be fun to make map about terrans landing on Azeroth.

 

[HappyTauren]

It'd take more time to make all the shit you need, than it'd be fun.

 

[LordDz]

Well Someon Is In Bad Mood.....

 

[punwisp]

He seems to be pissy a lot sometimes =P

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

When will this game be out already...

 

[LordDz]

When will this game be out already...

When Duke Nukem is.

 

[redmarine]

When Duke Nukem is.

Lol... Isn't the game canceled?

 

[LordDz]

Lol... Isn't the game canceled?

The sun will be gone before that happens...

3D Realms Site: Duke Nukem Forever ®

Yeah, we can't really make DNF jokes anymore since 2007, they announced DNF is actually coming out.

The new joke could be "When Starcraft: Ghost comes out".

 

[LordDz]

Oh.. They announced it will come out?
So the past 10 years.. They've just made it cause it was fun? They never meant to release it?

 

[Bane]

Look at the starcraft 2 models, they arn't high poly.
The are higher poly compaired to wc3 yes, but they arn't high.
90% of what makes it look high poly comes from the normal maps.
