The two tank models used in Tides of Blood would be perfect for my new map Tinker Wars. Does anyone know where I can find these? |

while u should ask the maker try getting the map opening it with WINMPQ and then extracting the models needed |

yea, that might have helped...... but winmpq cant open frozen throne maps!!!!! EDIT: ok, i managed to open the map, but every single file is called "unknown_5555" or something, and theres like 30 of them. None of them really have a file type... just called unkown... |

well i didn't realize there was a map protector that would scramble up the model names, i better go do some wc3 research, anyways that's probably what happened see if any of them have the extension .mdx if not then your best bet is to ask the map maker more loften that not he'll let u if you shower him in enough praise |

Yea, I have been trying, but I cant seem to get ahold of him :( |

ya the files say unknown but the extention never changes, look for a program called biturn in www.infoceptor.com or something like that, and extract the unknown files, use biturn to find the tank files and .blps. Remenber to ask permission on using the models. |

which program actually protects the models? got a link? the makers should put thier names on, and most of the time thier email addresses and such... |
| 03-07-2005, 06:57 AM | #8 |
They are not protecting the models, they just deleted the listfile.. Besides if you meant about a goblin blaster and Goblin tesla tank, hmmm... |

If you want the Goblin Blaster and Goblin Telsa Tank models, i think the blaster is hanging around the forums somewhere, dunno what cookie did with the tesla tank tho. But ask the dude who posted above me, he made em :P |
| 03-07-2005, 12:27 PM | #10 |
And lost them, In other words I dont have them anymore |
| 03-07-2005, 06:42 PM | #11 |
You made them? well this is perfect, I can simply ask your permission. May I use the models? Credit would of course be given. Yes, I was talking about the tesla tank and (what did you call the other one? goblin blaster?) I managed to get the models and skins out of Tides of Blood, but biturn cannot export as .mdx. Can anyone give me a hand here? I can export as .obj or .3ds or many others, I just have no way to get it into .mdx. I tried a obj -> mdx converter but it didn't work. |

Well, if you can't extract them right, there's a foriegn site I ran across while looking for models a while ago that still has the Goblin Blaster up (in .mdx). http://intra.biysk.ru/forum/viewtopi...226b5cc0e2a871 |

I downloaded those models long ago, I may bring them here and give them to cookie, and in case he gives you permission you can use them |
| 03-07-2005, 10:29 PM | #14 |
Hmmm.... I got the goblin blaster model from the foriegn site, but I can't get it to work. I used all the right texture names and everything, but it still wont show up in the game. Lord Vexorian: YES! THANK YOU! If you could put them up here I would be very grateful :) Won't use without Cookie's permission of course. Cookie: Can I have your permission? lol... the models are sooooooo perfect for my map. |

Maybe that's the problem you're having? Works fine for me. |
