Hi,
do any of you guys have Age of Wonders II and Stronghold (1, not 2). Also, is it possible to convert 3D units?


Okay, here we have some fantasy units mrtn might be interested in doing if someone can send him the files, or even better he has those games :)(This is not a request, I`m mentioning him cause he has no problem converting units with really old gfx :)) :
Age of Wonders II (http://aow2.heavengames.com/gameinfo/units/)

Over here we have some nice medieval units:
Stronghold (http://stronghold.heavengames.com/gameinfo/units/index_html)

Also, do you think Blizzard would allow converting Diablo units?

No, they won't.

Someone tried to do AoW units, but they had no shadows and no E or W anims, so he didn't do them.

Oh, no E and W sucks... What about converting 3D units? The AoM was 3D IIRC... and the Hydra unit got converted (and its awesome!), so I basicly answered my own question.. I`ll look for some games with 3D units too..

Blizzard... moneygrubbin` $&%#"&/, with awesome creative potential.

Well, the AoM models are low-poly and ugly in civ 3. It takes more work to convert an AoM model and animate it than it does to take one of about a million better premade models on the net and animate it, because AoM models use crazy model formats.

@Blizzard - yeah, they suck.

The Stronghold units come in an internal graphic format. That means it's "impossible" to convert.

AoM units can be converted with 3ds max. But they are indeed ugly. The Hydra looks good because it's a larger model.

At least one coverting project of a popular game with excellent 3D units we'll do sometime in the next year (I hope). :)

Which one, Aluminium? AoE3?

Stronghold units aren't that spectacular or anything that we don't already have anyway.

Yeah Gold, I know, I was mainly aiming for the AoW II, I found this ring site, one of the links was Stronghold so I figured why not..

Which one, Aluminium? AoE3?
Nope, it isn't AoE 3. The granny 3D format they use for the units is a problem at the moment.

Well do ya mind telling us what to expect or are ya gonna keep us in the dark!? :bounce:

Are you gonna make the AoK Mangudai?

The light comes sometime, not yet, later (I hope).

For the Mangudai, I tried to make it a long time ago. Unfortunately the black horse made the conversion nearly impossible. :(
