~Custom Race Creation~ (no official name)

[cosmicat]

Eek! You scared me.

[Kyrbi0]

Don't DO that. You almost make me think this board has activity. :P

Umm... ~UPDATE~
- I now, potentially, have a part-time job starting tomorrow. Thus I will begin having $money$ coming in, and thusly I am moving towards owning a computer, with which I can fill with all my files, and attempt to finish things.

Yay...?

[Nuclear Arbitor]

unless you like not having a computer.

[deolrin]

That's wonderful news, Kyrbi0! Hopefully the trolls will be finished soon. :)

[AnemicRoyalty]

So I had this idea for a Troll hero that I'm sure would tickle your fancy :)



Terrorlord

Warrior Hero. Badass Jungle Troll Warlord mounted on a Devilsaur (WoW version of a T-rex). Would have a variety of brutal physical attacks, fears and berserks (ala Pitlord).

But most importantly, the vocal lines:

We move, hYeeeeessssss.

You shall not prevail, NO!

Terrorlords do not surrender, WE CONQUER!

Terrorlord, TERRORIZE!

[Kyrbi0]

~2011/10/31 - Progress~
Nothing major, but I finished an archival of this topic. 54 pages in Wc3C, over 600+ in Microsoft Word!! (shrunk it down to ~450, but still). I'll be combing through it for information and marking it up, hopefully.

Other than that, been working on getting a handle on both the state I left it in as well as what's been done. Mainly focusing on the names, and I'm really pleased with some of the revisions. The Python Warrioress has never sounded so good. :P

Well actually, that's surprisingly-compatible with the current Warbringer concept... Despite him having a great custom model, I've long wanted him to be Mounted, and a giant Uber-raptor would do him some good...
Hey, if you wanna model it, I won't say 'no'. >:P

(As for vocal lines, I've not had much success finding compatible, easy ways to incorporate those into a mod. Besides that, I am one man, sans microphone and sans Jamaican goodness :P. However, I love the Megatron-concept.)

[AnemicRoyalty]

It would actually be really fun to do and I'd be keen to take a shot at modeling it after I've finished up a few projects :)

[Kyrbi0]

Bah, finishing something? Who does that? :P

Delicious. I already have first-hand experience with your modelling : ), so I have no doubts it would be epic. Let me know & I'll throw you his info/model.

[AnemicRoyalty]

Hey, look! Activity!



1187 polygons of Dino-troll goodness.

I've replaced the collar with a bunch of skulls in the latest version and given him a crazy-long spear but I'm keeping it under wraps for now :)

[cohadar]

Trolls + Dinos, that simply cannot fail.

[Kyrbi0]

Welp, that stinks. Quite ironically, I managed to get an archive of this whole topic... But nothing in the last year (how does a year go by without me archiving? I'm losing my touch).

(Un)Fortunately, since nothing really happens around here, we didn't miss much, although what is gone will be sorely missed. I believe there was a conversation of decent length between me and Deolrin about towers & such (still have the cruddy MSPaint drawings to prove it), as well as some WIPs on that delicious 'Troll Dino-Rider'.

(Feel free to rectify this, AR or Deolrin, by posting more WIPs to fill the void. xD)

In the mean-time, I'm en-meshed in school. Actually managed to open WE recently; I'll be testing the Pandaren Brewmaster's Storm, Earth, and Fire ability for use in several different applications:
- Use as a limited "Controlled Summon" concept for Goblins (summons summoned units & the original summoner, but invulnerable & immobile (ala Pokemon Trainer from Super Smash Bros Brawl)
- Use as a defensive/tactical "Soul Cage" entrapment spell (since it summons X units in a perfect circle around casting point, could feasibly have a "Defender" unit that can split himself into a giant ring of "wall" units that entrap & isolate a section of the battlefield)
- Use as an evasive/tactical "Dodge/Leap" spell (causes the casting unit to jump out, dodging attacks & moving positions)

The latter is a possible thought for the Trolls. Still having problems, though (with one summon, the SEF ability consistently picks one direction to go. Weird.)

~~~

So, things are going. Slow as molasses, but going nonetheless. :P

[Anitarf]

You can still rescue some stuff from google's cache.

[Kyrbi0]

Man, you don't know how excited I was to see your name in this thread. Make yourself at home. : )

*checking Google Webcache* Wow, I had no idea... I guess I *did* lose a lot of good info. Thanks a lot, that'll be a real help.

[SanKakU]

while you're at it, could add a thing here or there for existing races, like a detonate upgrade for wisps at tiers 2 and 3.

[Kyrbi0]

It has come to my attention that this glorious bastion of Warcraft 3 Modding may be making a final transition.

As much as I may wish otherwise, I can only see the wisdom in such a potential course of action, and thus must take prudent re-action:

I will officially be moving my operations over to The Hive Workshop, in this newly-christened thread . I encourage you all to join me, and thank all of you who have contributed to this Great Work.

~Brethren, adieu!~
