Download Type : New Model

Textures path : MatriachGold.blp

Portrait/model path: N/A

Version: 1.01
Added portrait and portrait talk animation, tweaks regarding stand ready animation.

Comments: 
The Matriach of the driders. I wanted to use the drider from garfield and Co, 
but they were not optimised for online play and their animations/meshfinalisation 
is about average (still great work and concept idea), so I decided to recreate
a new one. It has been a while since I've churned a wc3 model out so no portrait file.
You have to be content with just a camera in the model file.

Optimised as far as I know what could be done, if there are flaws just comment it.
Total space is 160kb uncompressed (which means in a w3x or w3m it would add 90 or 
80kb to the map total size).

As usual, you have to tweak with aimation speed settings like attack/cast/walk speed in
order to sync the anims with their behaviours.   

How to use:                                
Just direct the model path to this model and its done. No need to add a 
portrait animation as there is simply none (merged into the model itself). 
Just use Import Manager in TFT and import in the map (remember the import 
model bug, you need to save and reload map in order to see the model). The 
paths for the skin and model are above. Just import, doubleclick on the 
file and alter the path to the above ones. Thats all folks!

Notes:
If you find any bugs or problems or glitches of the model please report this.
We will work on it as soon as possible to bring a updated version out.
* = Wildcard. That means that all textures should use that path.

If you wish to use this model in a campaign or mod, please ask permission first. 
Do not post this on any site except www.wc3campaigns.com or www.wc3sear.ch.

beginning =P), Fadi Mounir, all the lads at wc3c before summer 2004..

Oh and me of course, but that is actually in authors spot
