Hi there...

Can somebody make some high resolution Noldor Warriors and Galadhrim Warriors for me? I will also need Numenor Soldiers with upgraded armor. They look such a mess in worldbuilder (I dont have a mouse so can't tell ingame when scrolled in).


my mod is here for some screenshots http://www.moddb.com...arth-ii-passion

I've never quite understood why the Noldor Warriors have a blue skirt, in the movies they have a gold skirt as shown below

Cool Mod I might let you use my Galadhrim skins when i finish them but just use the arnor skins and golden up some parts or scratch some armor its not hard check the tutorials on the site

o and here's my mod http://www.moddb.com/mods/hd-rotwk

Looks nice, unfortunately my ROTWK discs are missing.

I would do the job, but I'm not a graphics person, most I can do is button images... and they look maybe 6/10 lol.

Alright I might be able to help but when i am done with my mod I might make 1 for BFME, & BFME 2

[Chocolate Star]

Yes that would be good if you could help with the high resolution skins

I had the same issue with the blue skirt , then I did some more research and found out the original texture is Blue silk .
In the movies it looks gold probably of the movie effects , so you have to think twice before you made a movie model about how he would look .

Maybe this will clarify things.

To be fair, even in the films the skirts do appear to be blueish. I've only really seen that one screenshot that suggests otherwise.

A few examples:






I could be entirely wrong, I don't have a copy of the film here with me. Just my two cents.

[NewErr]

Blue makes the golden parts stand out , and makes good contrast , specially for a BFME model witch is small in-game .Otherwise you have golden pointy soldiers running on battlefield .Close-ups tho are awesome.

Yes, having colours on your units is important. You don't have to, but it's generally a good idea.

I wish the battle for the last alliance was much longer :( easily best battle in middle earth imo.

WETA did a really good job with the armor and costumes... glad it won a few oscars.

So .. mean

I too wished for that battle to last longer , they didn't added bits not even in the Extended Edition :( Only 1 frame of a blurry Gil-Galad in the whole movie , most time I didn't even knew it was him .

Still blue skirt > golden skirt anytime .IMO

[MattTheLegoman]

In the sketch board pre-filming cartoons they had Sauron grab hold of Gil-galad and burn him.

I also really wanted to see more of Anarion...

I think they should make some movies on the futher books, I really like the 2nd age period, my favourite period.
