You can also download the WOW model viewer, I tested the last one with Cataclysm and it now supports exports of the WMO models and with it the textures.
Import the obj file into MAX and export them to m3.

Who said there were no Pandas?

 

[The World Is Flat]

You only became interested in pandas because of Mists of Pandaria?

Pandarens have been my favorite race since i first played Durotar. :

SO OF COURSE!

 

[Grey Nightmare]

Stay on topic please.

New team? New mod? New mission? I've been that much time far from here? *scared*

 

[Miss_Foxy]

The concept art just made my day.

Hee hee, I guess it was a good decision to buy Starcraft II and keep Warcraft III, considering that they provide all I need to have fun

We had a bit of a reform, most of the original staff have resigned or gone awol. The direction, design and release plan of the mod changed so drastically we essentially started from scratch and we have new targets and goals in mind and for the first time since it's conception, this mod is making noticeable progress

Thanks to the new team!

@Foxy - Thanks for the support

A demo is in the works, there's no release date but we'd like to have it before or around Christmas... They'll be something at any rate, even if it's just a video talk/walk through demo as opposed to a playable one (though naturally we're aiming for the latter)!

Stay tuned, like us on facebook, watch us on moddb etc! I can't begin to describe the elation garnered from just one person clicking that subscribe-esque button, it's our primary drive!

 

[rcshaggy]

If you need any testers or anything I would like sign up for that and tell you what I think about the project demo.

 

[Oziris]

I just wanted to say that I kind of forgot my skype password. I'm working on the terrain.

If anyone wants to contact me leave a note in my dropbox terrain folder or send a PM.

I guess a naked hot chick lying on your bed is not your thing ah ? ah well more for me...
ON: Here's a barracks model I created in max, but I don't really like it. Feel free to use it if you need it, like a camp or something...Just give me some credit.

@Oziris - Not a problem Oziris, although there is a forgotten password form isn't there? =/

@ Warlord - Not at the moment, but we'll be sure to let you know when we do

@Chucky - I'll get our modeller to take a look, thanks!

@Chucky... Miss Foxy is a girl. ._.

Do account recovery? Okay, thanks for letting us know! Keep working

 

[RiotZ]

Are you using WoW rips Grey? I see there are some scratch models on the site.

 

[Turminator8]

Yes. We are using both Wow rips and custom models.

 

[Grey Nightmare]

Mainly WoW models, but the 'grand plan' (should it ever come to pass, as so many often don't) is to phase out remaining wow models with our own after the release/s.. Right now we're just trying to nail basic features and gamplay, aesthetics aren't a huge concern.

Looks nice so far. I can't stand working with GE so kudos for that lol.

First Scratch Made Building Mesh [Orc Great Hall]

Image

This is very much a work in progress, it needs 'roughening' up and generally made to look a bit more Orcish but we're so proud of Walle/Wormhammer and think he's made one hell of a start!

More meshes (and that demo!) to follow...

[Asomath]

Now that is sweet.

[The World Is Flat]

Great work team!

 

[rcshaggy]

I personally want to see a Dragon Roost now, and very well done Great Hall.

 

[Chucky]

The model is too simple, even the War3 Great Hall looked more complex than this. My suggestion would be remake the whole mesh after you've sketched down a concept, not just random fiddling...In this current state it's disappointing...

 

[M0rbid]

I agree with Chucky about the lack in details, overall you nailed a possible form nicely though. I could really imagine additionally tents around the main house to polish this up a lot. Attached shields and axes or other typical orcish things would work wonders.
The roof already looks rather nice, however the texture could have a few more details here and there to add more depth and feel to it.
One other major thing is that those tree stumps are a rather huge aspect of the whole model and are quite prominent. Therefor I think using 8 - 12 slices for those cylinders won't hurt. Especially because it's Starcraft 2 and not Warcraft 3 after all.
It could really enhance the overall look.

 

[Walle]

It's a work in progress and i plan on adding more details and more polygons but thanks for the feedback guys. And since it is also only the greathall i want to save the coolest features for the stronghold and fortress but do not worry i will make it look awesome =)

 

[Taylor Mouse]

Hi guys, just checking around, I like the Orc building, jest a few notions though

1. The walls are all too "straight", that lacks Blizzards "cool" design
2. When texturing, make it bigger, so that you don't need to zoom in to see details

like this:

[Grey Nightmare]

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

Walle made the textures a little more defined as you suggested Taylor, he also added some boxes and a tanning rack for variation:

Still very much a WIP but all the feedback is most appreciated!

Oh, that's gorgeous!
But it definitely needs skulls and spikes everywhere, now. :3

 

[Chucky]

I think it's still dull and boring, but if you say it's a WIP then I'll wait for the final version...

 

[Oziris]

Shouldn't it be a bit dull because it's first tier?

 

[Deolrin]

Hmm.
Some weapon racks in the empty spaces(to the right of the door), and an orcish skull above the doorway should do it. ^^

No, if you look at the Great Hall tier 1 it looks much better than Great Hall tier 3.

 

[Turminator8]

No, if you look at the Great Hall tier 1 it looks much better than Great Hall tier 3.

If you've left the Hive... why are you still here?

Stop tolling

 

[The World Is Flat]

That is something called Personal Opinion.

Deolrin is a sensible person for the most part, and he knows his buildings. All it needs is a little bling, but the description made it clear it was going to get this, so I have no complaints. Great job. Taylors critique was good too.

 

[Taylor Mouse]

Yes, thats already better

 

[Rui]

The problem with making tents around the main structure is that you'd end up with units being way too big for the actual buildings. Sure, that happens in both of Blizzard's RTSes, but there's a pattern in the building-unit proportion that those tents would destabilize, on top of that general characteristic just being overall unrealistic.

 

[Deolrin]

You guys may want to update the first page, tho. Very old information there.

 

[Grey Nightmare]

on top of that general characteristic just being overall unrealistic.

Oh Rui, XD

It's a Fantasy game! The entire concept is unrealistic ;D
Good call on the proportions though, we'll keep in that in mind.

@Deolrin - Eeyup, very fair shout. I'll look at updating it over the weekend!

 

[Jaret]

Wow, this made in the notices! Great to see this develop so much since i left.

 

[Stanakin]

It's a Fantasy game! The entire concept is unrealistic ;D

That's always such a stupid argument. If the concept is already unrealistic it's even more important to make people feel like it is realistic, by making everything in the game as realistic as possible in the fantasy world. Otherwise immersion is impossible, and no immersion equals a bad game. :/

 

[Alfagar]

Godamnit! Why don't you use this prime matron instead of that current $#%#^@crooked-boob succubus model in here

 

[The World Is Flat]

The current model is rather symmetrical.

Adding on to this, The above model is a Lower-Poly Warcraft 3 model.
