Heroes Mod for 3.1 - [RELEASED]

[Puerkl8r]

I'd like to see a separate king/leader model for each faction, kind of like vanilla kings that had a separate model from normal generals. Obviously the faction leaders with specific models wouldnt use it but if they die the ones that take over after them wouldn't look like just another general.

Gandalf looks Amazing! I cant wait for this to be released!

did you ask for permission first?

I'll ask for permission and give credits to all sources.

That would be interesting but I don't know how to do it and would represent a considerable work load

Thanks, I think he looks amazing too

Release will be soon, couple weeks max.

Changing the leader model upon becoming king is done through a bit of text editing. The most important part is the level attribute, which is the method used by priests becoming bishops/cardinals in vanilla. A hidden trait that grants level bonuses triggers an update in battle and strategy models.

Awesome work guys
Glad to hear that Gandalf will use his sword instead of staff.

Yeah it's kinda funky seeing Gandalf stab someone with is staff.

[glassakias]

gandalf is awesome, as always! +rep

[Baron Samedi]

Yeah Gandalf looks wicked sick. The details are beautiful. Keep it coming mate!(+rep)

[DisgruntledGoat]

I have a dwarven model ready and it would be interesting to make a mouth of Sauron style hero but it would be a long way on the road, I might do Khamul the easterling soon though.

If you, nor anyone else is planning on not doing the mouth I am kinda interested in getting back into doing some basic modelling and texture work again. And the mouth of sauron interests me. If you don't mind I'd love to be a contributor to your mod.

Yes definitely, I didn't show them because they're not skinned yet.

Awesome job btw.

[Yarrum]

I can't exactly speak for the project seeing as I lack the work ethic required to be an actual member, and really just make stuff for Louis when he requests it, but it'd be awesome for you to lend a hand.

[The Mongol]

Awesome work man, Gandalf definitely needed a makeover and your version is just perfect.

[Ceasar Gubius]

Great work dude ! Staff should be much longer though.....

Yeah, even if it's just a re-texture, something to signify faction the faction leader would be nice.

I didn't post a good view of it, the staff is actually the same height as Gandalf (minus hat)

Making a proper texture takes a lot of time...

I can only imagine how excellent this would be. I have always admired your work DG.

Speaking of admiring work; these models and textures are looking GREAT! Can't wait to incorporate them.

loadThanks, I think he looks amazing too

Your team and yourself have outdone yourselves with this mod, I really like the detail your putting into the faces; it really adds to the 'movie-esque' feel of the mod which is brilliant! Keep up the good work!

[Louis Lux]

It's great to have DG back modding and I'm sure great things will ensue.

I'm really good with faces, I've been drawing portraits since I was 12 years old, and I feel faces are very important when it comes to heroes.

[paradamed]

This mod looks good! I hope that Mouth of Sauron comes to life in this mod.

[Yarrum]

I'm wondering though, would the Mouth of Sauron be implemented as a diplomat, a general, or both? It'd be a shame to go through all the trouble of making the model and skin to only see it on the strategy map, but the Mouth was a talker, not a fighter.

[Disastras]

Maybe an exception could be made for him. He's what nightmares are afraid of, and I would love to see him on the battlefield.

He always did carry around a wicked broadsword though. Maybe hes got some skills we don't know of?
