DeadBattery Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 i came across a link somewhere about these amazing warcraft new heads for morrowind?And speaking of warcraft, is it possible to build the moonelf race in morrowind using the textures and arts of the elves in warccraft probably the same idea can be used to make a large variation of new head models in morrowind from other popular games, using the faces textures and its art files,just an idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kethruch Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 I would doubt that any of the things you ask for are simply "convertible" into the Morrowind style. Even another game using the same kind of graphics - "Pirates of the Caribbean" done by the same company does not have compatible body parts. On top of that, you would get into a lot of copywrite issues if you could find a way to do it. Your best bet to do it would be to find someone who was good at making the models to make some based on the creatures you are asking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackmage Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 Now, as I've stated before, this is all based on assumption, conjecture, and just plain guessing. I don't know much about the editor and stuff, but I do know a lot about Warcraft. Which doesn't qualify me for much of anything... but whatever. My guess is that there are programs out there that will let you skin a character in Morrowind. Based on what I've seen, you could prbably make some damn fine models that can look pretty close to warcraft skins. Now, if I'm understanding your question correctly, you want to know if you can take the warcraft 3 files of say, a Night Elf Archer, and put the actual unit into Morrowind? I sincerly doubt that you can do it so that its so simple as copy and paste... the only way i can see someone doing that is if they used compatible programs to open up the warcraft models and then sort of... transfer...or something... onto morrowind models.... And even then you would have to do a lot of editing because the pixels would be totally screwed up. Think about it, on screen, an archer is 1/2 an inch tall... and she looks fine. but when you zoom in (like if you use the map editor for wc3) then you see that they don't look all that great. the same would happen in morrowind. In short, my guess is that it's POSSIBLE... but it would take way too much work to pull off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThetaOrionis01 Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 Using models etc from other games in a Morrowind mod is copyright infringement. There have been threads about this on the official forums, cf this one: http://www.elderscrolls.com/ubbthreads/sho...=5&o=14&fpart=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadBattery Posted November 26, 2003 Author Share Posted November 26, 2003 but they did it with warcraft's orcs havent they?.. after all there are so many available downloads .. probably u dont have to actually get the original character into morrowind , but mebbe just take inspirations out of it to create a variaty of new head textures..mebbe just mess around slightly to make it look diffrent but just as good... just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadBattery Posted November 26, 2003 Author Share Posted November 26, 2003 we dont have to copy the whole thing into morrowind...dat would be crazy to do so coz of copyright isssues..but probably morrowinds variety of faces can be inspired from other games...

ThetaOrionis01 Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 Please use the EDIT button if you want to add anything to your posts rather than make consecutive posts. Copyright is a very tricky issue, and even when just using another model for inspiration, sticking to closely to the original can still land you in trouble, even if you are not using the actual model.

Daddy Two-Foot Posted November 27, 2003 Share Posted November 27, 2003 There is a WarCraft III orc face mod. I know, 'cause i have it. They are very high quality, and I recommend it if you ever play as orcs.

DeadBattery Posted December 1, 2003 Author Share Posted December 1, 2003 how did these orcs get to be in morrowind? ive seen how ppl add their own faces in morrowind...so shouldnt art or graphic generated art should be alot more easier to handle? speaking of copyright...the sims have various skins from other games which is supposedly copyrighted and its downdloadable and open for the sim fans to use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
