Gladiator Heroes, Mod For ROTWK

[{IP}LORDOFDARKNESS]

I decided to make a mod for ROTWK, its maybe my last but here it is.

Maybe you still know that some gladiator maps have that remade heroes im gonna do that to but not a map but its a mod. So i am going to remake heroes and give them cool magical powers and swords that are made of water, fire, magic ect. It will contain loads of new fx and powers. ( note this is not realistic so lurtz for example can have a Word Of Power like gandalf but it will look completely different)

The heroes that will be remade are,

Thranduil, a fast elven archer with cool ability's like magic shots, and rains of magic arrows.

Lurtz, a strong sword fighter and also a good archer. He shoots slower then thranduil but lurtz's damage is a little higher. He has most powers of fire.

The Witch-King, he is a fighter and has the ability to cast magic, probably also a morgul blade attack.

Prince Brand, A powerful archer will fight for the dwarves. he has not much magic attacks but has summons and powerful knockbacks.

Gandalf, A very strong wizard. gandalf can force enemies back with high knock back damage just with normal sword hit. he will keep his mount ability and has many magical ability's on foot.

Glorfindel, he is the best and fastest sword fighter. has great leaderships and ability's like magic rains and powerful blademasters. He wields great power over water.

NOTE , these heroes are for version 1. maybe there will be more heroes added in version 2. The ring hero option will remain the same. Sauron and galadriel will not be changed.

And i have some pics of thranduil already,

His passive fx effect his hands glow magically,



When thranduil shoots an normal arrow at enemy and it hits this appears,



Another,



I will post more screens later, you will probably think what map that is where i took the screens. Its a test map for my powers that i make. Has nothing to do with this mod it is still a mod not a map.

And everything about this mod/project will be posted in this topic, if you have ideas for powers or whatever post it here

[Soicx]

Are you using switching between two command sets of powers, if so you will need a lot of powers.

[{IP}LORDOFDARKNESS]

No i'm just using one commandset of powers for each of the six heroes listed above, and i won't remove togglestance.

And go here for more screens of this project
When this forum gets active again i will post here also.

Looking great , but you seem to have become silent over the last days, keep us updated here!

[{IP}LORDOFDARKNESS]

yeah the mod is on hold for now and the reason i posted more screens at Bog was because there was much more activity there. But when this forum will become active again i will post everything here also. i'm not sure when i will continue this mod however.

[{IP}LORDOFDARKNESS]

i hope this forum will get active again, so from now on i will post every update here also. here's my long promised update. I will post allot of screens of the witch-king, gandalf, and 1 or 2 of lurtz.

I finished gladiator heroes, Download here

For those who still not know what this mod does,

I have remade 6 heroes with new powers, the heroes are : Gloin, The Witch-King, Gandalf, Glorfindel, Thranduil, and lurtz. All with new powers here's some detail on the heroes,

Gandalf, can cast very strong magic and can still mount his horse.

Witch-king, has a weapon toggle now and various magic powers.

Glorfindel, he is far more stronger than in original bfme2. Can use very strong powers and has much better health stats, he's one of the most powerful heroes.

Thranduil, weaker than the rest and is easier to kill. But has good arrow powers, stealth and a magic shield.

Lurtz, far more powerful has a lvl 8 wop various arrow strikes, remade carnage with new fx, weapon toggle.

Gloin, good hammer attacks and has good armor and harder to kill.

What you also must know is that this mod is for ROTWK,

How to install:

1) Put the downloaded mod folder (gladiator heroes folder) into your C: Drive.
2) Create a copy of your original bfme2 ROTWK shortcut and add -mod "C:\Gladi heroes" to the end of the target box.

And done hope that is not to hard.

Credits,

StealthSnake : he has made button art for thranduil's new arrow storm, made a fire arrow button also for lurtz but i didn't used it cause i replaced lurtzes fire arrow with another power (so the button didn't fit anymore)

Alensis : Has made many button art for all the heroes.

{IP}JBV3737, on all of the screens i have posted you see on the background a unfinished map. It's a test map JBV made for me to easily test my new powers on.

And thanks to everybody who has given ideas.

sorry if i forgot anyone to put into the credit list.

If you found any bugs, or you have comments/suggestions maybe for a version 2, or even screens to post just post it all here. If you want to use any of the new FX's for your own mod pm me and ask permission.

Have fun!

Way to go LOD...just a question...did you start your FX work here, and then lead up to getting into IP as advanced coder or did you start somewhere else?

[{IP}LORDOFDARKNESS]

I started here, and while i was fx coder here in the beginning i learned much. Then after a while (near the end of The Valar mod) i learned more and more just by editing the fx and looking at it. So {IP} said i was a good fx coder and they let me in, then i learned more and even more not from somebody else though... Now i'm advanced i can nearly make whatever i want. So I will make the fx for WOTS at its best.

[BloodShedAD33]

Sweetness!!!

[Solinx]

Your FX career really started at WotS! Cool

And congratz on completing your mod
