WoW Banshee

This bundle is marked as high quality. It exceeds standards and is highly desirable.
Work Process
  • Exported to .glTF using wow.export
  • Imported into Blender and exported out of Blender using Bogdan+Twilac's MDL importer/exporter
  • Textures converted to .dds
  • Baked to T-Pose
  • Converted MDX1000 to MDX800
  • Renamed animations to match WC3 animation names
  • Removed animations not used by WC3
  • Configured animation looping
  • Added Attachments
  • Added portrait camera
  • Modified texture alpha and material configuration to display properly in WC3
  • Fixed broken stand animation by looping specific node keyframes through the animation
  • Modified death animation geoset alpha and bone animation to produce an acceptable death animation. The ported animation was unusable.
  • Added a simple decay animation
  • Added custom teamcolor using texture alpha channel
Notes for Mapmakers
  • Uses .dds Direct Draw Surface textures for faster rendering in-game and significantly reduced size when the map is saved as a .w3x file. The texture file size will look bigger than .blp until you save the map. When the map is saved as a file it will save significantly smaller than when using .blp textures at the same quality level.
WoW File Path

Having Decay and Team Color is a great addition. Going to set to Approved (High Quality).
