Terrain Models - Your Input

[Elfsilver Lord]

I've decided to start to attempt to model, I'm purchasing Milkshape and I hope to be of some use. I figured that doodads and scenery would be an easy job to do. Now, I want your input on what models that you would find useful. I have a list that I came up with, although it's very small.

• 3D Waves
• Ripples
• Water Splashes
• Rapids
• Clouds
• More rock variety
• Modern Doodads (Computers, furniture, etc.)
• Ropes/Chains
• Falling Leaves
• New Volcano
• Fish
• City Balcony, New Realistic fountains, statues
• Waterfall effects (splashes of rocks, foam at the bottom etc.)
• Birds/Dragon Nest

Post Away!

All of the ones on the list seem too be very useful in my point of view since the regular warcraft doodads kinda suck :/

 

[Lexandritte]

Waves are gonna me hard ones to make multi-usable, for water body of any shape and flow direction....

Some models I'd find enjoyable:

- Leaves falling, all different kinds.
- Various ropes, tight ones, hanging ones, and blocks for them, so you can constuct complex structures with basic models.
- Light sources, of different colours and intensity.

 

[L2love]

lol there are vary few falling leaves but i got some you need 2 learn how 2 make structures then id request but all i can think of right now are light sources like lex said and more cloud types.

 

[Lexandritte]

So far I've only seen one, in High Res Pack.

And yeah, cloud's be awesome.

 

[Belgarath]

IMO - a bunch of simple futuristic doodads or modern ones - things that you have on tables, like, different setups of computers, or parts of them, heaters, rubbish bins, variations of desks, lamps, beds, couches, etc. Great for just, simplistic things.

 

[L2love]

there a pink flower peddle and also do what belgarath said we only have a like lab top a closet and swirly chair for present/future doodads.

We had a thread that LiOneSS started for wanted models. Might want to search for that.

 

[Elfsilver Lord]

I've seen LiO's thread, but as far as I know, she hasn't releaed any of them. And that was in 2008, so the need for different models may have changed.

Here's the thread LiOneSS started if you need it:

EDIT: I have updated the list, for all those who would like to see.

 

[Nbah]

o.....o Mainly, I'd prefer if we had a bigger variety in rocks, steinlords and high-res rocks are getting overused lately.

Would be nice with some more house doodads :3 Made of wood or something.

xXMorphuesXx has a myriad of models on Wc3C for house building.

I agree. There's not enough of these in good quality...

 

[Celaquil]

Considering how many people that have done this very thing, basically saying that they will make terrain doodads for us and shit... Well, nothing personal, but I am having a hard time believing it will ever happen, I hope to be proven wrong, however.

Yah

also I'm suggesting for more sea city doodads

More ruins doodads? Dude, ever seen the UTM?

 

[Gilles]

Moar trees. For all those trees out there, there sure aren't many good ones.

 

[Celaquil]

Thats true. What we need is more foliage trees.
(I'm damn sure thats the wrong word, but its what my dictionary said...)

 

[Racziel]

It would be very cool if there were more doodads to make complex buildings with domes, columns and stuff like that, cause sometime ago i tried to build a roman city and i couldn't find enogh doodads that fit in this theme (e.g. Marmoreal walls or a dome)
The best doodad i can imagine and which is really missing is a quarter of a dome (not only city-like but also for sunken ruins or black citadell) and a Column with different variations.

 

[Mr.Goblin]

We need some bones and corpses models! D:

Dead boar body = for meat (items)

Thunder Lizard Squeleton = For decoration mostly.

Dead grunt, dead nightelf archer, dead footman. = Decoration

this seems abit gore, but! so many times i wanted to add a corpse on the group in front of a dongeon or so many times i wanted that dead boar model for not cooked meat etc..

 

[Celaquil]

All that can be done with triggers Mr.G >.>

 

[Gilles]

I think he means something similar to the dead villager doodad.

 

[Wolfhelm]

I completely agree with Racziel - There needs to be more models you can build stuff with. Like simple bricks or blocks in all different shapes, sizes, and textures.

As well as pieces of archways. Not a whole archways just small pieces that you can build your own with - in any shape/way you want. Even if you where to cut up the city scape archway's into pieces.

Basicaly more building parts so you can make cone roofs and domes and other stuff that isnt really possible right now. (that at least look good)

Plus moar trees! That actualy have branches and leaves that dont look so cartoon'ish!

 

[Elfsilver Lord]

Well, I guess I'm off to go start now.

My goal for the day: Cityscape dome

 

[thedeathunterxx]

i think we need some clouds. clouds of course are getting boring of late

and perhaps some darker, death like scenery, like better looking skeltons, and or guts that look like actual guts.

and i hope these get done. Im pretty sure the 3d model waves would be awsome, but i doubt its that posiible. Perhaps u cna make 3d watter waves that Dont Move, but if u had Animated waves....that would be pretty damn hard.

 

[Arcany]

So, do you sitll have plans for this or have you given us false hope like all the others who promised to make models for us?

 

[Elfsilver Lord]

I'm purchasing Milkshape in a week or so, then I will get to work.

 

[L2love]

y milkshape there better programs than that but what ever. Also on your chain model thing i have that model in like a hanging version and connected its just not done is all since I'm lazy.

 

[Archipelago]

Fall / Autumn trees!

 

[Oziris]

There is a 99% chance that you wont make this.
