Custom Terrain

[Master_Saji]

So, I want to make my own grass, stone, etc. how would one do that?

Edit this file, if you can, convert it to blp. The path should be something like TerrainArt\Ruins\Ruins_Dirt.blp.

EDIT: Crap sorry .jpeg doesnt keep alpha channels, so the edges will show up squared... you can download Wc3Viewer and view the real thing from www.wc3sear.ch though

Thanks alot

if you do use that path, then wouldnt it replace the origonal ruined dirt or whatever, but if you make a new name for it will it work still?

 

[Rad]

Yes, the path will overwrite the skin no matter what. Example: You give an archer illidans skin the archer will appear with illidans clothes, of course none would match and it will look shitty because wrapping takes pieces of an image and wraps it, so if an archers head was in top right and illidans in the middle, the head wouldnt appear.

But since every terrain style is basically the same it should work.

or if you tried giving a tauren a doom guard's skin, i tried this and it looke nice.

I wonder what it would look like if you gave a tauren the skin from one of those pig creeps..

Lmao Jindo thats awesome, some units are like that. Zergling and fel hound for example. The pig creeps? Kobolds, Gnolls, Razormanes?

 

[Jindo]

Razormanes!! that was what i meant !

i just did it for a test and it turned out cool so i kept the extracted skin ready for use again !
