Ujimasa Hojo's Resources Discussion

[Null]

I don t get a thing. Ujimaja Hojo has the best resources from hive and the most used ones and many of them are still marked as substandard.
His models are making 90% of my map's models and this platform still underrates him.
This is frustrating.
I demand justice for him!

 

[Shar Dundred]

Lovin' the Hammer Thrower model, Ujimasa, but wouldn't it fit better into the Footman pack?
Or, if it is about the "looks", the unit looks more similar to the Gryphon Rider than the Mortar Team I feel like.
Just logistics I was wondering about, it is of course great.

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

It's basically the big dwarf from the Mortar Team, reskinned and then given the bandit animations.

 

[Shar Dundred]

Ah, okay, I thought it was the Gryphon one.

 

[The_Legion]

I love the possibilities your Hammer Thrower opens up! such like an Earthen warrior with Chen's Titanforged skin, A Gan'arg smith maybe, small Gnome Mechs or a Powersuit of sorts even, Maybe a Dark Iron and Ironforge variant as well? hopefully these could prove possible in your own time, sir!

 

[deepstrasz]

Battleship and Derivatives

Any plans to make something similar with all other ships, from each race as well?

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

Oh, the Human, the Night Elf, and the Undead ones are already there. The funny thing is that they are all slight modifications of each other. For a lot of the "new" kinds, I recombined parts of them.

 

[deepstrasz]

Yeah but it's only Battleships.

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

Oh you mean the Transport Ships and Frigates. Eventually.

 

[The_Legion]

Could you make a Human cleric or bishop alongside your other acolyte derivatives sir? Like false followers of the light or even how some acolytes came to be?

 

[stein123]

Hey Ujimasa, can you make optimized versions of the forest troll models (berserker/trapper/shadow priest)?

Bat Rider and Derivatives

For some reason the missiles aren't working

Bat Rider and Derivatives

Thanks for pointing it out. Forgot to fix it back then.

Fixed it now.

 

[r.ace613]

No problem, kudos to you sir

 

[Null]

the demon forms from the demon hunters look like the models but without the blades. I suggest making them darker and replacing the black tatoos with green shiny ones.

 

[The_Legion]

Just a couple of suggestions!

• A plague based variant of a Forsaken/Cult of the Damned Abomination with the stomache region having like a glass covering the open part and you can see some green chemical/liquid like from your Forsaken Laboratory model from the inside.
• A Valeera Sanguinar model, rewrapping your Tess Greymane model the same way you wrapped you Blood Elf Ranger model weilding the blades you used for your BE Demon huntress model.

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

Westfall

Buildings:

• Altar of Harvest
• Aviary
• Barracks
• Blacksmith
• Farm (Elf)
• Farmstead
• Granary (Optimized)
• Lumber Mill
• Mage Tower
• Spawning Grounds
• Storage Den
• Storage Vault
• Tower
• Town Hall
• Workshop

Author's Notes:

• Optimized models have linearized animations, built-in portrait animations, fixed bugs (if there were any), additional animation (if applicable). These can be used to serve as a template for alternative skins if you want to keep the original skin and model.
  
• This set mostly contains neutral farm buildings and farm versions of the Human buildings.

 

[Kyrbi0]

You are simply a treasure, man.

 

[The_Legion]

Absolutely amazing! Really like the upper tier Bandit feel these new buildings have! Or an uprising of peasants even!

Ujimasa Hojo Presents

Shouldn't you call for remoderation on some?

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

Not really. Better to reign in Substandard section than serve in the Approved section.

Joking aside, re-edits of in-game models weren't allowed in the model section back then hence why I started this thread and used paste bin links. When the substandard section was set-up, I was allowed to post them back there.

 

[deepstrasz]

As you wish.

 

[The_Legion]

Just another couple of suggestions

• An Orcish Necromancer - the Gul Dan/Drak Thul/Necrolyte model wrapped with the Necromancer/Kel Thuzad textures, much luke in the same vein as your fairly recent Necromancer Initiate model.
• An old Human mage hermit - the Gul Dan model wrapped with the Archmage/Bandit Mage's textures while the head is wrapped with any of the Centaur textures.

 

[MSTVD]

Your models are fantastic, Ujimasa, and will be forever cherished and useful!

The only suggestions I can think of are a royal militia model with the gold trims of a captain and more variants for the orc warlord model but as a human (standard footman style, captain style, bandit style etc.)

 

[r.ace613]

Far Seer and Derivatives

Sorry, but I don't see the Archmage model here?

 

[Yoga WP]

And what about Night Elven Wolf Riders, Night Elven Warchief (Wolf Mount), Night Elven Sappers ?

 

[The_Legion]

@Ujimasa Hojo, Can you please add NE/Wolf ears to your Druid of the Howl model?

 

[Tuwnew]

Dropping an idea here :
Blood Mage (Inquisitor)
Using Archmage's robes and Captain armor.

 

[Yoga WP]

Dropping these ideas here :
Cenarion Circle version of Blood Mage (War Druid)
Using Malfurion's skin and Shaman's robes.

Cenarion Circle version of Mountain King (Druid of the Stone)
Using Druid of the Claw's skin, Bear Den's skin for the axe and Chimaera Roost's skin for the hammer.

Cenarion Circle version of Gryphon Rider (Druid of the Skies, Hippogryph Mount)
Using Druid of the Claw's skin, Chimaera Roost's skin, and Hippogryph.

 

[r.ace613]

Will you consider giving the female Acolyte the same animation set as of Acolyte?

 

[Ether]

@Ujimasa Hojo - Will you make derivatives from Reforged models soon? Or any plans yet?

 

[Null]

Great Hall (Human)'s portrait is like the upgrading one.

 

[Ujimasa Hojo]

@Ujimasa Hojo - Will you make derivatives from Reforged models soon? Or any plans yet?

To be honest, I'm feel like sticking to the low polyverse.

Great Hall (Human)'s portrait is like the upgrading one.

Thanks for pointing.

 

[The_Legion]

@Ujimasa Hojo, I'm really sorry for sounding like a broken record here but could you please add in Night Elf ears to your Druid of the Howl model, sir?

 

[Kyrbi0]

To be honest, I'm feel like sticking to the low polyverse.

Hallelujah!

 

[Xelos]

good to hear, for me that wc reforge something missing, i would call it the absence of soul.

[dell]

Footman bandit is one good idea you added is for your footmans models and orc necrolyte for the necromancers

 

[The_Legion]

@Ujimasa Hojo, will you be making an Upgrade-able variant to your Gilnean Boulder Tower? if not, will you be open to the idea of making a Gilnean variant for your Tower (Human) and Derivatives pack?

P.s. loved the Young Druids Furion and Illidan models tho I am a bit surprised you made Illidan rather Beastmaster-y

 

[Null]

Furion Stormrage (Young) still needs some work at his cape. It should have only 1 type of texture this way it looks weird and there are still some pieces which aren t attacked to the cape and don t look like leafes but they are still a part of the cape.

 

[Null]

Our lord and savior is using my icon.
This is a legendary moment for me.

 

[Sinandur]

@Ujimasa Hojo Is there any chance you might come back to your Archer (Gryphon Mount) and Derivatives in the future?

If so, it'd be mighty useful if you add the standard Sylvanas on a gryphon.

These are my thoughts on why it might be helpful to some mappers:

1) It'd be great for alternate timeline maps or campaigns in which Sylvanas survived due to a different chain of events (either by leaving before the Scourge struck, or escaping Arthas via some kind of trick or outside help) and joined up with Aerie's Peak or the Alliance, in search of revenge. A keen-eyed Ranger General on a gryphon just makes too much sense to pass up (assuming they'd allow an elf to ride them).

2) Useful for an elite archer or an archer upgrade for Footy type maps. Example: High Elf Ranger > Ranger Captain (on foot) > Ranger General (gryphon mount).

3) Good as a custom hero for the race maps that swap out melee races for something more exotic. It could also be useful for an expanded hero roster map that adds Sylvanas to the Altar of Kings. Mounting the gryphon could be a mid to high level ability or an ultimate that changes her stats, like Kurdran and Sky'ree in Coming of the Horde.

4) It would work better for people who want to modify her with a custom skin. As-is, her hood being from the original Ranger General model means that it doesn't change if you try to skin the Kul Tiras uniform, for example.

I like the varieties you already have, but they feel a bit more niche. Vanilla (living) Sylvanas on a gryphon seems very versatile, as I hope I've illustrated.

Just a thought. Always glad to see your work on the Hive.

 

[Null]

1 small big question: Will you be making models after the release of reforged? If yes then will you make models only for reforged, or only for this version, or will you make models for both?

 

[Xelos]

what about fel/chaos ogre, i have idea about lore : legends says, existed once one stupid ogre who drank blood from Mannoroth, thinking it was strawberry juice.

[r.ace613]

The Barracks for Ebon Horde could work better with undead birth imo

 

[Kyrbi0]

Creative! Quite a pack.

 

[The_Legion]

Oohh!! Is this a separate pack from the Forsaken I see! Always lovely to see new building packs!

Also! Could you please revamp the Town Hall and Altars derivative packs next?

Defias footman
Frostwolf warlock(stormreaver)
