No clue he said he didn't know but at least it will be done!
good point but i have another question is it textured?
The skin? No not yet, I'll be doing that after we get it ingame.
There will be 6 skins. A Default Red and Blue Legolas skin and A Default Red and Blue Mordor Elf skin.
wow, you've worked pretty hard at this, you should do more LOTR maps, models, etc.
you should make a rohan armor one :D no i wont drop this
translation still pending. THOUGHT I FORGOT, HA!?!
Nice Legolas model :D Helms Deep looks cool too, too bad you can't climb laders in jk2 :mad:

Actually I've stopped the work on Helm's Deep but I'm now working on an Isengard map instead, but no pics yet.
isengard? why? its a tower surrounded by concrete...nothin too cool...but then again your the mapper so its all good. nething good about legolas comin in?
Well I sent the file to Toonces but I haven't heard back. Lets hope he's working on it.
How long thake it to complite the model?
Making the model and not getting it compatible took me about 4-5 weeks I think.
so wheres it at at this point matt?
I haven't heard from Toonces for awhile, anybody talk to hime recently?
I just talked to Toonces and he's looking over the model so don't worry he's working on it.
thats good to hear. cant wait matt.
Ya I was so happy to open up my inbox and finally see the name "Toonces"!

Yes and No.
Yes it will be ingame and released.
No not yet be patient.
Can I ask a out of the topic question? Well How do you change you already custom avatar to a new custom avatar? Sorry if it sounds n00bish lol stupid me.
Goto User CP, Edit Options, scroll down to a Button called Change Avatar, Click it then scroll down and you can either use a link or upload a new one. But please guys stay on topic.
Ok it worked ty and I will stay on the topic now.:D So hows it coming?
Well Toonces says he was going to look over Legolas. He asked if I needed it to be Unwrapped and I said yes and he said it would take considerably more time. I haven't heard anything else so lets keep our fingers crossed!
I've been following this thread pretty silently this whole time, but I have to speak out and commend you Matt. A lot of models are worked on but no one ever tells you anything. No updates you know? But you've kept us posted this entire time and for that, I think I speak for all of us here when I say thank you.
Just one more thing. I think I also speak for everyone here when I say...GIVE ME THE :swear: MODEL! I WANT LEGOLAS! :D
Just kidding and no I am not typing this from a mental institution. :rolleyes:

Just kidding that you are commending me?:p
Anyway thanks for the compliment I know how annoying it is to be waiting for a model and not hear from the author in weeks on end so I always give you the news as I hear it so keep looking for updates!
A little update for you guys, It's going to take me a bit of time since I have to do the uv's on the model so I ask for your patience.
I'll keep everybody posted on my progress. Once I get the UV's done I'll send the maps out to Matt and he can start skinning
Thank you very much Toonces for helping me. Is the model working fine? It will work ingame right, once you fit everything to the skeleton? And about skinning it, that will be great! How ever, to test the skins wouldn't I need the ingame model? I'll wait to skin it until its ingame I think. Anyways thanks again for your help and keeping me updated.
Wow that is a great model! I think Matt deservse a big round of applause for making it! Lets all show our gratitude for Matt's amazing work!:D
legolas is cool, yes. Can't wait to see him skinned. by the way matt, are you in search of a good legolas avatar or something?
Well.
This is coming along great I see. You even got Toonces to help. That is straight sweet. Good Luck Toonces and good job modelling this sucka Matt.
Thanks, I was so surprised that the great Toonces was helping too!:eek: But since he is Legolas is going to be the coolest model in jk2!:cool:
dose this model of legols have a bow and arow thing on his back
It has a quiver but no arrows sticking out, the polycount was too high.
dose it have metal sholder pads like the lord of the rings the two towers game
that's what i was gonna ask, could there be an alternate version w/ armor? you might not even have to add to the model, just skin it on and get Toonces to come up with a reflective shader (he's good at that stuff).
I'll tell you what, when Toonces is finished and when I start skinning him I'll make the other 6 first then I'll try Rohan armour like in the pic above.
Sounds pretty awesome :D I think this model will redefine 0wnage :)
Very nice work you got going there Matt! I cant wait till its finished!
-Clemme
other 6? eh? what 'other 6'?
other 6 skins I meant. I'll do the 3 Legolas' the 3 Mordor Elves and then I'll try the Rohan armoured one.

not that i've been askin that since forever :mad: grrr...GIR shall smite thee with his explosive rubber piggies of doom!
The progress on this model has been great to follow, I'm waiting for the next step.
Well the next step would have to be on Toonces part so lets hope it'll be soon.
