[Wasabee]

This is awesome.

 

[Mike]

Made based on this

 

[Deleted member 238589]

Oh, it's gonna be very useful. Good work.

 

[InfernalTater]

Very nice! Next, if you want to, you should consider making a trebuchet which can be packed up & wheeled around, but has to be set up in order to be used. Like the ones from Age of Empires II for example, those were pretty cool.

Anyway, 4/5, very good job.

Wow Mike, you have surpassed yourself this time!! I can totally see this be used the same way as olofmolemans legendary trebuchet. I have some feedback on the animations though, which in my opinion are a bit lacking.

Firstly, the attack animation seems to defy gravity. The "throw" is too slow, and when it retracts, the string and bag float in the air in a very unnatural way. You should speed up the throw, and make the arm "bounce" once when it reaches the end, and then retract.

Second, the death animation is better, but it seems to lack inertia. Basically, a piece of wood that big would not fall down and then immediately stop, it would bounce back up a tiny bit before going down and coming to rest. Also, the arm section should fall much faster - right now it looks like it is falling through water. It would also be cool if the arm would, after landing, fall over so that it points towards the ground. Right now it seems to be resting in an unnatural position.

Fix these things and i will improve my rating to 5/5.

It looks like the trebs on civ 4. Awesome work man.

 

[HerrDave]

Very bloody-good work!

 

[WhiteFang]

Good work,this will go well with your castle model.I'm getting a swarm of ideas...
*opens WE*

Like the ones from Age of Empires II for example

Good memories.The AoE series were the first PC games i played.I still have 2 and 3 on my pc

 

[Times]

Looks really nice!
Mesh looks really well made from Magos.
Hmm, perhaps you could make the weight 'fatter'.
Attack animation could use a bit more of work.
Other than that great job.
4/5

 

[jonbon29]

Very awesome and the textures are nice.

 

[SNIper of DARKness]

Very good, can't expect less from you, You have proved yourself with your constant medieval buildings, You could say I await "eagerly" your next models.

 

[Shadow Fury]

I really adore these medivials siege weapons, especially when they are done so well like this one. Great work, keep it up as always

Help


Im new, pls help me how to put the downloaded model into my game (Froxen Throne)
I use windows :eekani :8

 

[Shadow Fury]

Im new,pls tell me how to put the downloaded models to the game (Frozen Throne)
I use Windows 8.1

Download the model and send it to a known location e.g Desktop. Open the Import Manager (Press F12 to open it), Click on "Import File" (or simply Ctrl+I), search for the folder of the model you downloaded, import only the mdx. files and any blp. If there is any blp, you must remove war3imported\ from them to let the model work properly. Some, however, need you to replace that with Textures\ so always look out for the description of the model you're downloading. You're done with importing!

To use the model, go to the Object Editor, go to Art - Model File ---> Import ---> Search for the imported model's path (if it's only one, then you'll just click on Import then OK)

Thank you man! I will try it in 20 minutes and I will say if it works

 

[APOP7]

I do all the steps but i cant find the Art at Object Editor

 

[Shadow Fury]

You have to click on the desired unit in the Object Editor to find Art - Model File
By the way, do not double post because it is strictly forbidden. Please next time use the Edit button.

 

[Heinvers]

Great mesh job Mike.

I like it, 5/5 from me

 

[Chaosium]

Totally reminds me of AoE2, how frustrating it was to see them idiots blow your base up at 50 yards range, raaaah!!

Anyway, very nicey :>

 

[APOP7]

I dont know.. i import them but it says ''No appropriate imported files exist''
Sorry for posting 2 times in a row

 

[Shadow Fury]

Then you did not import the .mdx files otherwise you wouldn't get this message.

 

[APOP7]

I did it! But it is a green box at the world editor:

I did it! But it is a green box at the world editor:

It's normal. Press test map and the model will show. If you want to view it in the world editor, you must save the map and restart the editor.
