...is it possible? I would really like to import the boss-models from Zul'Aman (Nalorakk, Akil'zon, Jan'alai, Halazzi, Hex Lord Malacrass and Zul'jin) to use for custom units in the campaign editor.

What programs should I use?
Is there any .m2 (or whatever formats wow uses) to .mdx or .mdl (dunno the difference) converter out there?

Theoretically it would be possible, yes. However I think that would be illegal, and if that's the case, I don't think we should talk about it here.

You could always download WoW impersonated models or request them somewhere... That would be seen as "legal" as it wasn't made by WoW.

Theres not many modelers that make completly new models here, besides SFX models, i havent seen any. I wouldnt mind making some WoW-esque skins for you though. Like skinning kael to look like WoW kael, either way good luck.

Hiveworkshop.com, go through there. Some skins and models are there that look like they're from World of Warcraft.

ThankyouthankyouthankyouTHANKYOU! Though I havent browsed through, and though i havent found the boss models I need, I found LOTS of other things I really needed! /hug

The skins you get, do you need to apply them to the models, and how do you do that so it gets right in that case?

It would be skins for the normal warcraft models, so the animations would be the same, but the person can be completly different, i havent found any boss models on xgm, unless the crypt lord is a boss. If you need one just ask me. Ill try to do it.

No other way except being illegal.

It is stated right in the Terms of Agreement. Either you abide that, or abuse that and go to jail. It's your call.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
