Zeus Model based on Blacksmith

[Ryuukun]

Can someone turn TB into the original DotA zeus?
The Blacksmith model comes closest and should be perfect for converting.

See pictures.

they look like twins already and all he really needs is the axe like thingy on his left hand and some skinning.

I'm no good at this so i have to ask.
I need zeus instead of ape power xD

[KopfHand]

Hm..i like the monkey^^

[ReDsKiN]

I believe the weapon is called a cleaver, in LoO's left hand

So pretty much make him silver and u got ur Zeus ;)
+ some special elec effects, could use BlacRyu's Zeph ones

[Granman]

Ya shouldnt be too hard for someone to do.

[ReDsKiN]

For effects though, the stun could be a lightning bolt(tb's move) and the flames could be like smaller versions of elec's ult, on impact having a chain lightning like effect (imagine ds's heal with lightning effects, as example)

[Hiroshi1]

I think he means replace the monkey model with blacksmith's model, not make blacksmith into zeus.

I think he means replace the monkey model with blacksmith's model, not make blacksmith into zeus.

No, he states that he wants to turn Thunderbringer into Zeus, and that Blacksmith is the closest model that you can use to add the cleaver (which is impossible, AFAIK) and make him silver.

It should be very easy, as ReDsKiN has said already: Re-texture to silver, add lightning effects, possibly from Lightning Zephyr, and you've got Zeus!

[Ryuukun]

Basically take Blacksmith model and replace it with Thunderbringer, reskinn him until he looks like zeus.
Blackryu did that with Tempest

How does that look for a start? Too white?

K I finished making it work on thunderbringer. Gimme a minute to upload it. Nothing fancy though. I put the taunt animation for the ultimate (jump up and knock hammers above head) and put the stun animation for both other skills.

Done: http://www.mediafire.com/?gmtmdzvoamm

I don't plan on updating it anymore than that, so if anyone wants to add body effect or something, go for it.

[Ryuukun]

I'll try working on it but I'll need to learn the basics first.
Lets see how far i can push that :D
Thanks Max.

[Dederd]

Could you include the soundpack from WC3 too?

[Keshoon]

I was bored. Lightning effects taken from Lightning Zephyr, icons taken from DotA website (they're pretty low quality, sorry.).

Even that screenshot looks so damn awesome, dling this now :D
Now just soundpack and its done :D

edit: looking into a soundpack from DotA :)

[Ryuukun]

this needs one of swiftblades weapons on his left hand and the sounds and it's awesome

[Keshoon]

Updated with voice from DotA. AFAIK, it's impossible to just take Swiftblade's weapon and put it on Blacksmith.

[ReDsKiN]

ahh poo i just finished doing sound..at least i dun need to upload now :D (being capped sucks)

[Yuichi]

I hate the word impossible so I tried to do it with thelis importer/exporter but with no success.
Animations are bit buggy (head rotated around 90 degrees, weapons floating in the air etc.
Other than that its pretty easy to add that sword to him.

[Keshoon]

How about removing his hammer though? Didn't think it would be possible, but I knew it wouldn't work that well.

[ReDsKiN]

Yah the blacksmith head rotation was noted before by theli

[BlacRyu]

Here's what I was able to come up with:

I erased (alpha'd out) his hammers, then attached the hammer from his third skill to his right hand, and Savage 2 Legionnaires axe to his left.

Couldn't manage to make him grip the axe any lower on the handle though.

[ReDsKiN]

That looks awesome BlacRyu :D
Is there any way to have him with a cleaver though?

[Keshoon]

The closest thing you can get as a cleaver would be taking out the back blade. Looks pretty awkward with the giant hammer, then the tiny ax. Lmao.

[Yuichi]

Hehe Nice job! Didnt think of using Savage 2 Legionaires axe for that :P

[SoundWizard]

hah that's really cool! BRING THE THUNDER!
