The dark, corrupted recoloring of the Protoss units as seen in the campaign (and the image below) look really neat. Question I have is, how difficult and time consuming would it be to apply that same style to the remaining units, such as the Colossus, Scout, Phoenix, Observer and Mothership (did I miss any)?
I'm not a texture artist or anything, but it looks like all the dark variants all just share the same textures. Replace the gold metal with the dark metal, and the blue glow with the green. I guess it'd just be a simple edit, right?
If it's not too difficult, would anyone mind taking a shot at this? I'm sure quite a few people could find a use for every Protoss unit having a dark variant. If someone else has already done or requested this, then my apologies.
I wouldn't be surprised if Blizzard added a dark variant for the rest of the Protoss in an update or expansion, but I'm not holding my breath.
It would probably require retexturing those models sadly :( Or you could get the texture file of the scout and whatnot and try change hues and so on . However this may not turn out as crisp .
That's not what I'm asking for. When the trigger is active, the Colossus, Observer, Phoenix, Scout, and Mothership will stay golden rather than become darkened like the rest of the units and structures do. I'm asking that those aforementioned units be recolored so that they'll match.
Hey Hey, im a modeller, and its not that hard of a job, i suppose i can give it a try, and ill let u guys know how it went
EDIT: i have the textures working, but i had to import the colossus so i didnt override the original colossus' textures, which menas not all of the animations are working correctly but heres a shot of it!!

Any good photoshopper with an extraction tool should be able to do this.
Someone found a trigger that activates that protoss player as "Dark Protoss." You don't need new textures or a model.

This is a great idea, I hope the Dark Colossus can be available first!
(neet to see theres a trigger for the others)
