YES, that kind of asset is exactly what the community needs. Build!

Busy on him, just deciding which animation to add and which not..

Fixed the head, I did find a few bugs on it :/ and his upperlip in the original blizzard texture is soo small I had to add some additional polys to make it work.. Current animations are

• Walk
• Run
• Unload
• Unload End
• Stand
• Stand 02
• Stand 03

I'll add some other basic animations before I release the MAX file. After that everybody can use it or add what they want. these will probably include:

• Death
• Death 02
• Turn Left
• Turn Right
• Attack
• Attack 02
• Spell

I'm also planning to add an additional set of animations for when he holds long weapons, or heavy weapons, like a machine gun, but that will probably be a version 2 or something :p

What about all the original animations with the model? I'm sure worst case scenario we can just .m3as from it but just curious as to what happened to the original ones.

@JacktheArcher: Go

I only kept parts of the original model ( the terran spectre) and all the rest is new :)

T.

Yes, well, not yet, but I was busy doing a sword model, and use that as a reference for some melee attacks, also, if you have an idea on what kind of melee attack you prefer, please do tell :)

Here is a little sneak peek on the weapon I'm working on, it is a 2 handed one, but it could be used as a one hander ( a big one) it is based on one of Wildstar's weapons

@DrSuperEvil: You mean like in the Def Jam games?

The handle not so much, but the flat of the blade, yes I will (try) !

T.

OK, trying out some boxing animation, what do you think?

T.

@DrSuperEvil: Go

Yeah, that haymaker is definatly on the list :) And some kicks too, was thinking of about 5 attacks or so, some kung-fu moves or something

I used to do some kickboxing back in the day, so the arms are always up for defense

T.

Lol, yeah I know, I just want lots of animations so that people can choose what kind of character it will be, and select just those animations they want for their character.

Once this set of melee style animations is done, I'll post the max file so anyone can add stuff or break stuff :)

Finished the sword:

Polys: 594

The zip also contains the 3DS Max File if you want to play with it Free of use, to change at your hearts desire :)

Hope you like it.

I like it but I think the handle needs to be a tad smaller or the blade a bit longer cause now it looks more like a dagger. Otherwise it's pretty starcraft 2ish and the handle somewhat reminds me of Zelda's master sword handle.

Wildstar swords are the exact definition of "bulky". So, I find this one pretty accurate.

They are made from super light, super strong, exo power, light weighted, super sharp sci fi metal :) like in WoW

Or I could just slim it down :p
