well this is a model that could look nice in reforged as well 'u'

the hands seem a little derp tho..

 

[Zwiebelchen]

This is just because the texture I used from my selection of armor textures is pretty low resolution around the hands. It's a tradeoff I had to do to make it fit the 512x512 texture limit.

I will probably try to upscale the model in reforged, increasing the poly count and detail on the armor and making new highres textures.

EDIT: I also added a lance model to the downloads because there aren't any on hive and you probably want a basic model to test this unit with.

EDIT2: And two of my swappable armor texture variants so you can test out that feature.

 

[Hazop / Sarven]

Wow really effective armor :|

 

[Loki18]

upload more! i can already see a Lady Liadrin skin on it
btw love that map

 

[Zwiebelchen]

I have over 20 alternate skins for this, but I can't upload them all simply because I paid money for them and wouldn't want to spread them around for free for obvious reasons.
It's easy to create your own skins, though. The texture mapping is done in a way that makes it very convenient to copy and paste stuff in with slight modifications.
I can probably share the "naked" texture I used as a base template if someone wants to paint their own armor designs.

Wow really effective armor :|

It's skimpy armor in a fantasy game. Get over it.

 

[Mathayis]

ooh! A Really nice unarmed model!! This'll come in handy one day for my next map Awesome work!!

 

[ShadowMidas]

Beautiful!

 

[Vinz]

Her face is the best I've seen in a while. Animations are solid. Team colored hair is a wonderful touch. Thank you for this.

 

[pleasancer benediction]

She look stunning.

 

[RedLord]

Now, it's bouncing.. Yeah, Good job.

 

[emperor_d3st]

This... is my new waifu.

They removed the 512x512 texture limit in on of the resent updates.

 

[Elektrohund]

Looks like somebody had a bit too much fun while animating

I know. But this model was created long before the file size limits and texture size limits got removed.

I will create a high resolution version of this with new textures and increased polygon count and more attack styles when the Reforged tools become available.

What can I say? Gravity is a wonderful thing...

That's the absurdity of animating: making boob physics is very easy. Yet nobody ever compliments you on correct physics of hair and cloth parts, which is much much harder to get right and took me DAYS to make.

 

[Loki18]

can't argue with that

 

[BrothForMyPeople]

Very pretty girl model. Usable for female characters.

 

[Cuore]

I compliment you for the hair and cloth animation effort. The attack animation movements look very fluid and good. I don't like the emphasis on boobs physics simulation throughout the sequences. I think there's something off with the walk cycle I can't really put my finger on, but it could use a review. Finally, a model with this amount of quality and attention to detail should move its face more during Portrait Talk - for starters, it could move its eyebrows.
Overall excellent product. Would you be okay if I used its animations (in part or full, or even just as a reference) for some of my character models?

Sure, you can use these animations for something else.
I can't guarantee it translates well to other models, though, as there are many "special" bones for the cloth and hair parts that most models will not have.

About the walk cycle: It looks exagerated in the previewer, yes, but I don't think it looks off ingame. I think the previewer kinda messes up some animations by linearizing them.
The model was designed to look good from birdseye perspective, hence why the walk cycle looks so jumpy.

Also, the talk animation looks pretty good ingame. The previewer doesn't do it justice.

 

[Sacryel]

You could do Mai Shiranui with this model. :O

 

[General Frank]

Please add a decay bone animation as well as corpse.

 

[Zwiebelchen]

Please add a decay bone animation as well as corpse.

But it is a hero model. Why does it need a decay bone animation?

 

[General Frank]

I don't see it being a Hero because it lacks a Dissipate animation. It does however have a stunted decay animation.
Your call, really.
Why not make both and have decay animations and dissipate so you make more people happy.

 

[Zwiebelchen]

Oh yeah, well, I'll add a dissipate then. Forgot about that because I never use Dissipate anyway.

 

[General Frank]

Sounds good.

 

[Zwiebelchen]

Sounds good.

I added a Dissipate animation now, so it should be ready for approval.

 

[General Frank]

A nice model that is probably useful for my RPG type maps.
Works in-game and performs well.
Approved.

 

[Madison]

omg, this is beautiful

 

[demonpuppet]

Sorry for the late rate. This model is gorgeous. And come to handy, especially if you want to make an adventure or rpg maps and those items can be attached when in the inventory. Also it is a good model as a range hero. Nice one

I'm sorry to ask this, seeing as nobody else seems to have any issues, but I can't seem to get the replaceable model's base textures working.

First, I attempted to do the simple texture replace according to this guide: How to: Import a Skin -- and only got blank, white textures over the character model below the head.

Second, I tried this method, thinking that perhaps the word "replaceable" meant to try this: How To Make One Model Use Many Skins and got the same error.

The ReadMe file mentions that it uses "uses replacable texture id 31 to swap out body textures" and after a great deal of searching for what that means, I found nothing save for how to replace textures on doodads which didn't seem to work for this model as it isn't a doodad. Unless I'm misinterpreting all of this.

Deciding I was probably too quick to jump to something that advanced, I decided to just try the base model just to see if it worked unedited and I still got the exact same problem: a blank, white texture below the head.

Can anyone help me get the textures to work? Thanks.

You used the swappable texture version then.
Maybe you accidentally downloaded the same model twice?

The reason the model appears white ingame is because of the "alpha" texture. Its the trick used to swap textures ingame via the warclub ability.

To remove the white texture, simply remove the "alpha" texture in material layers.

 

[HARVENTURA]

Good Job!

 

[Antinous of Bithynia]

any plans to release the rest of the hero models from gaia's?

 

[Darkduke219 oRzac]

Amazing model, but can someone explains to me how I can use her alternate skins on world editor I'm having trouble?

 

[FlameofChange]

How did I missed that one. Dayum.
