Welcome to the official update topic for the mod War of The Giants. I previously had posted that I was making one, but anyone could say that. So I now will make this the thread to post all updates, and for you to ask any questions about the mod.

My first Update: I will be adding new giant units and one is the fire giant from the Ash Mountains. (Being Creative ) He will have a new skin which will be shown tomorrow and he will also have a massive burnt hammer to clobber enemies. So I got the model of the troll's CaH hammer modelled it as best as it could, also to remove some poly count, but mainly to make it look like a plain old hammer.

Remember I just tampered with the hammer a bit to make it look better, so it's no that good.

I will also add new updates tomorrow.

And please anyone who has a desire to help with this mod please say so. I have {IP}Aragorn94 as my skinner.

Out of interest, what animations are those Fire Giants going to use ?

[Giant Modder]

Probably just new one's. Big hammer being smashed into ground. Several different ones.

Well you don't have to play it then. Also if you have to be so negative please don't reply in the topic again.
But basically every knows that the ents faction would stink. Ents are like all the same. Giants however can be very, very different. Also it's like this in real life. There is a Yheti myth in Asia, where the gigantopithecus is a myth in North America. So There are many different variations for that topic.

Also for everybody else. Here is my second update, First big update really. The render for the fire giant. Not updated but it will get there tomorrow for sure.

Fire Giant Render

It was skinned by {IP}Aragorn94, who did a very good job. It will also be updated.

Also please if you want to help please do. You can pm me for more information.

fire giant everything was done by {IP}aragorn94.

the skin is the only thing changed.

[Mathijs]

And yet its 10x better then what you can do. So stop being so unconstructive in your ''criticism''.

It looks good, though it could be more defined, as in some sharpening on the scales to bring it out more.

[General Otmin]

You have a pretty good start for your mod

i know its better than anything i can do i was just saying (sorry i didnt mean to be rude).

When the giant walks you could have like trail of smoke from him make him look real cool !
Also maybe yellow eyes to contrast with his red skin also look very good !
and maybe u could give him a 2-handed hammer, he would look abit puffy with a little 1 handed thing lol
also when he smashes him hammer it could erupt on the ground .. sorta thing, like its a magically fire enhanced hammer .. jus some idea though, dunno if theyre do-able
Looks like a good mod to play, il definately download when its done
Good luck !!
Also change the fire giants loin cloth lol he deserves something cooler

[Giant Modder]

Yeah. I was thinking a lot of changes but thats just what his skin basically looks like. Once we finish him we will be able to post of screenie of him annihalating units. Also thanks for the feedback Rikolous. He will be changed big time from the original giant. As will the ice giant.

[Eldarion25]

I agree with all of them, I'd give the skin more definition, and bring out the eyes, but it's a good concept. Also, I'd give the stoumach a lighter color, like most animals have. Never know...
