Thanks! GOt a new computer and was frantically searching for those models and couldn't found them. Was panicking..

 

[Kyrbi0]

I know you're concerned about this model problem, but isn't it true that hundreds of *any* model is going to cause problems?

And anyway, the extreme unlikely photos hundreds of model being placed in one area seems like a good reason to continue doing what you're doing. : )

I solved it already. Apparently, unused vertex groups within geosets were the ones causing the problem. I am slowly re-saving my models using Retera's model editor in order to automatically delete those.

 

[Kyrbi0]

Nice!

That would explain why nearly all the resources of yours have been updated... xD

 

[SadisticLeprechaun]

DUDE the models you have made are so epic and numerous... crazy stuff, love the derivatives of stuff.

 

[The_Legion]

@Ujimasa Hojo, good sir, is there any chance of you creating a High Elven/ Silver Covenant version of your Blood Elven Druid of the Talon hero, Priestess of the Sun, Warden and Watcher models? the High Elven style being reminiscent of your High Elven Spell Breaker and Kirin Tor War Mage.

Also a few more additions to Blackmoore's slaves? Like a spellcaster of sorts using the Shaman mesh? Maybe a Knight/ General Version of the Thrall model? as Blackmoore's Champion from the timeline wherein Thrall fell in line with his human master from the War Crimes book.

You could just remove it yourself in the model editor just find the geoset and material attached to it then delete it

I tried it. However, everytime I save the said model, import it to world editor, and Test the map it crashes.

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

After removing the geoset. Make sure you remove the geoset animation which has "None" under geoset id.

His Texture is Outside in. Normally Textures are pointing to the Outside. In this Case it points inside, causing this result. Simply making the Texture twosided should get rid of the Problem or making the Texture point outside via Mdlvis.

Hey @Ujimasa Hojo, if you ever make the "Thunderlizard & Derivatives" Modelpack be sure to link this here: King Dodongo & Dodongos.

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

Did change something in that model?

 

[Mister_Haudrauf]

Did change something in that model?

I merged Main Model & Portrait Model, which were originally separate.

Malfurion Stormrage (Ancient Druid Form)

Hello Ujimasa, I tried the Malfurion model and whenever the hero attacks it turns into a wildkin.
Your response will be appreciated.

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

I need to add a stand ready animation to the original Malfurion model.

 

[SadisticLeprechaun]

You know what would be awesome? A map with all your models in there so someone could browse through them without looking at 50 different threads, then DL each one, then place... not a map to be played but one where all this brilliant work could be viewed.

Do you have any other Wretched models in mind? Was always curious what Medivh, Acolyte, Paladin and Priestess of the Moon would look like as Wretched.

[The_Legion]

What I love about these model derivatives is that most often than not most Warcraft 3's skins are just some edited variation of another skin so it's so easy to swap out similar looking skin with one another to create other different variation of the current models in these packs, like being able to just switch out textures sometimes gives you another new model derivative for free!

But praises aside will there be a possiblity of you using the Warden skin to create some more dark and broody militant Night Elves?

And another small thing, I'm a tad bit surpised that there isn't a Bandit variant on the NE Assassins derivatives! Surely bandits would fit quite nicely with the derivative's theme

Because the Warden model is just a highly modified Watcher model, it can actually be easily worked out to replace models with the Sentinel/Watcher textures.

@Ujimasa Hojo

Just a suggestion, sometimes when I want to download a specific race pack, I have to download a lot of other models and sort through them.. It has been somewhat inconvenient.. although It may mean more work, could you perhaps have the specific race packs here on this discussion forum.. You can still have the building packs, it's just that sometimes it drags on

Thanks in advance

 

[The_Legion]

@Ujimasa Hojo, I could offer to do such a task if you'd like, sir?

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

I'd appreciate it.

 

[deepstrasz]

Hey, would you mind if I just wrote some skin/model suggestions/ideas?

Yes? Then ignore what comes next:

Spoiler

1. Seasonal and elemental (fire, ice, metal etc.) variants for matching (those which would make sense/fit in) models. Like snow (whitish) Ancients, murlocs, gnolls, golems etc.
2. Male versions of creatures like harpies (especially the arakkoa which aren't supposed to be mammals/have breasts) and others you can easily turn them into the other sex.
   
3. Hero and non-hero variants of your models (glow on the weapons/limbs which attack too if possible).
4. Variants based on factions (although you're doing that), I feel as if many factions are being left out. Main factions (Faction) and subfactions (I'll write the Warcraft II ones as example): Human (Azeroth, Lordaeron, Stromgarde, Kul Tiras, Gilneas, Dalaran, Alterac; we could of course add Theramore and others), Orcs (Blackrock, Stormreaver, Twilight's Hammer, The Black Tooth Grin, Bleeding Hollow, Dragonmaw, Burning Blade).
5. Taurens, you could make those infamous/evil black ones from WoW.
6. Chimaera: a Deathwing type (plated armour).
7. Necromancer: Archbishop Lazarus ?
8. Shaman: a fel/chaos type.
9. Druid of the Claw: Satyr.
10. Jaina: Theramore version; Aegwynn version.
11. Druid of the Talon: that purple on the Kul Tiras version does not fit its morph which is mostly green and brown with no purple. You could literally make Furion morph into anything from a bear, to a crab.
12. Medivh: demon version (maybe morphs into a bat or something).
13. Sea Witch: tail (to body?) colour variations (just search coloured snake on Google images and you'll get ideas). A underwater swim animation if possible.
14. Keeper of the Grove: Emerald Nightmare version (for all Night Elf models too ).
15. Maiev/Warden: orc, demon (+chaos/fel) and Nathrezim version.
16. Sylvanas: WoW Vereesa and Shandris version.
17. Archmage: maybe the hydromancers should have blue instead of purple to be more in tone with water/sea/ocean? What about a High Elf version? Maybe even a Night Elf version but with a panther instead of a horse.
    
18. Priest: Alonsus Faol? I don't know was Perenolde a mage? He seemed like a rogue or something not versed in the arts of magic.
19. Alchemist: maybe you could make the alternate forms more convincing as in changing the monster's hue like on/similar to the original ogre.
20. Arthas: surprised you didn't make any Lich King variation.
    
21. Gryphon: since you made a griffin skin for the Hippogryph, maybe you could make a Hippogryph one for the Gryphon.
22. Fel Guard: Undead variants (Skeletal Orc etc.).
23. Problem with draenei units is that they don't have elven ears, longer than those of human though, and they have horns and hoofs and bent knees like some mammals.
24. Archimonde: draenei should be light blue according to WoW.
25. Wind Rider: since you've made a nether drake rider, why not a Spirit Wyvern one too?
26. Captain: Falric and Marwyn version (from RoC cinematic scene inspired?).
27. Paladin: Lothar, Turalyon, Danath (maybe some work better on Arthas?) [Warcraft II version).
28. Grunt: Skeletal Orc variations (armoured etc.).
29. Thrall: chaos/fel version?
30. Abomination: demon, slime/sludge, golem.
31. Lich: elemental, ghost.

I'll post more when I get more ideas.

 

[The_Legion]

My apologies for taking a bit of time zipping up all the race packs, @Ujimasa Hojo. I only included the unit and hero models in the packs, sir, I hope that would be acceptable since the building packs are still up in most of your posts.

I'll try have them up by tomorrow sir, where should I post them on? Would it be best if I placed them all up in Google Drive and then place the link that has all of the race packs zipped in one mega zip file?

 

[master Gul'dan]

I have an idea about Peon and Derivatives.
1.Peon with peon.blp skin.
2.Peon Optimized.
3.Fel Peon Optimized.

Please make this derivatives, I really need these models.
Thank you.

 

[deepstrasz]

I have an idea about Peon and Derivatives.

Those are not ideas. That skin is easily importable or you could even make your own Peon modified model with this: War3 Model Editor
The others are just reducing the file size...

 

[master Gul'dan]

I mean, edit the peon model, just like Peasant and Derivatives.

That would be stealing someone's skin. Uji, does his own.

If I recall correctly Ujimasa has already made an optimized peon before. If you check either his Ujimasa Hojo's Resources Discussion or his Ujimasa Hojo's Resources Discussion packs

Thanks for your information.

 

[The_Legion]

Could you please check if the models were properly categorized, @Ujimasa Hojo, sir? https://www.hiveworkshop.com/attachments/ujimasa-hojos-racial-units-heroes-pack-zip.314130/

My apologies if I have gotten anything mistaken. Kinda got crosseyed combing over 89 folders, sir.

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

This may have to wait as I'm a little busy at the moment.

 

[mushypepito123]

nice

 

[deepstrasz]

Hey great, if you could make a Nether Drake version for the Dragon Roost. That would be awesome.

 

[Niarfe003]

Tauren Buildings????

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

Ok guys. I really want to focus on polishing my old building models which is badly due so sorry if I don't get to replying sometimes.

@Ujimasa Hojo, just a small suggestion sir for your revamped Dalaran Arcane Sanctum. Could you possibly have TC on the edge of the main base structure. The green roofing of the main tower base, could that be replaced witg the roof texture you used that has TC?

 

[Shar Dundred]

Does this mean more Ujimasa buildings or fixes of existing ones?
I am fine with both, just curious.

@Ujimasa Hojo If you ever wanted to do something lik what you did with Stromgarde (Deriviates with custom skin),
I would suggest those two if you ever wanted to do Scarlet Crusade:
ScarletCrusader_by67chrome.blp
footman.blp

Not requesting that you do it, just throwing around ideas since I really like the Stromgarde stuff (I still kind of hope for a bandit/archmage for Stromgarde if I am honest. ).

I actually recall Ujimasa making a set of Scarlet Crusade models before for his Desolation: Caer Darrow map! As well as a Risen variant to go with it.

I absolutely adored the Possessed Scarlet Crusader hero he did for it. I thought the transparent silhouette over the Arthas model looked really cool!

 

[Shar Dundred]

Are you sure you don't mean the Stromgarde ones?

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

I am gonna be doing old buildings mainly. If I ever do new ones, it would belong to pre-existing sets.

As for a Scarlet Crusade set, you're gonna have to manually export them from my Desolation holiday special map.

 

[Shar Dundred]

Wait, you mean you really created Scarlet Crusade models?
Gonna take a look at Desolation: Caer Darrow then, thanks!

 

[The_Legion]

@Ujimasa Hojo, I'd like to recommend Kwaliti's NewCreepyScaryCrypt.blp as a somewhat replacement for the Stormwind set's texture if possible, sir?

No offense to Pyrocoptos sir but amongst the two Kwaliti's looks more in line with Warcraft 3's style. I hope you would consider it Sir!

 

[_lycan]

He Ultimasa, I'm sorry for the request, but you edited the Battleships (humans) and added some really cool ones, but one very important one is missing, wish you made a stormwind variant, I wanted to use your juggernaut version but many people say that it's too similar to orc ships, your kul'tiras for example is incredible
