So apparently there's a Terrorblade demon in the files right now.

This one.

[T]http://static5.gamespot.com/uploads/original/776/7766249/2640525-dota2_tb_mv.png[/T]

It isn't bad; but I'm going to have to break my rule on no community items when Terrorblade does get cosmetics; seeing how otherwise the $35 multi coloured pen won't work.
I'm going to take advantage of this.

I was actually writing up a tutorial on how to work with Terrorblade's material bullshit. Mostly because of the demon in particular.
Stuff like this is exactly why.

Anyway why does this all matter when the thing isn't even out yet?
It doesn't; but that didn't stop me from re-working it's mask and materials until it worked with his arcana detail setup.

Original top. Re-worked bottom.

So what exactly does it do? It enables it to be used with the arcana or something?

no, it's just texture improvement for item that currently exist but not enabled in game

Yup!

these are crash dumps, every time your dota is crashing (because of mods ofc), a crash dump file is created, it contains info about crash. these are useless, delete them every time your dota crashed.

[QUOTE=Mr, Jukebox;45940002]So what exactly does it do? It enables it to be used with the arcana or something?[/QUOTE]

Simply put two things were wrong with it. The first of which being it's mask were incorrect.
This is forgivable since there exist no official documentation on how the gemcolour proxy actually works. Though the self illum mask wasn't lined up so it didn't work at all.
It was also all white which was generally bad. If you want an example of what that does look no further than the blades of manta. They actually have a full normalmap and specular; you just can't see it since selfillum is applied over them.

Then everything is made worse by the fact that the dota2 importer is using the test client terrorblade's materials as reference for any workshop items. This means that workshop items by default are not compatible with the arcana. This also means that everything will look unusual when paired with terrorblade since he and his original items have a cubemap and dynamically tinted phong and they will not.

Basically it didn't work and I fixed it before it was released. I wouldn't consider it a visual improvement since I didn't do any visual improvement.

[QUOTE=caesarsalad;45930982]Hey would anyone know if it is possible to change the colour of each meepo clone (clientside)? I want to make them 5 different fluorescent colours such as green, red, yellow, blue and orange (the guitar hero colours). I don't care whether it looks good, it's just for visibility. How would I do this?[/QUOTE]

Almost definitely not possible.

I dont think this is possible, just the arcana part by setting fractal_horns_of_the_inner_abysm for "default_item" but this is kinda buggy sometimes work sometimes dont

So you've unpacked chaos knight textures and changed their tint? 10/10 great work, next time make Troll Warlord blue, Riki green and Storm Spirit red

Ok two things.

First. The point is that the materials and particles resemble abaddon. He's done an alright job. Could probably use abaddons detail and add some deep purple and yellow but whatever.

Second. Stop acting so pretentious.
You've admitted it yourself that you lack the skills needed to model; as such your mods consist of slight portrait edits, slight texture edits, and renaming model files.
You are in no position to respond with this much hostility.

Well then let me tell you something you might have missed then. I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm calling you out on how outright poor your responses have been recently.

Like the one you just made. No effort actually went in to forming an opinion or, heaven forbid, critique on what was presented. Instead, you dislike it because you deem it lazy.
Imagine something being lazy when it comes to modding dota2. It's not like you're given much room to work with. I'm sure we both can attest to that.

I'm not asking you to like it. It's ok to not like things. However; shitposting is not ok.

If you would like to start posting useful information in this thread you could try answering the following:
The goal is for chaos knight to resemble abaddon. Does it succeed in that respect?

[QUOTE=Kotboris;46001437]So you've unpacked chaos knight textures and changed their tint? 10/10 great work, next time make Troll Warlord blue, Riki green and Storm Spirit red[/QUOTE]

I didn't just tint them. If you look at Chaos Knight's armor, it's just plain gray. I added a bit of blur effect from different colors to resemble Abaddon. As you noticed, the particles were changed too. My example is the eyes. I added something that looks like Abaddon's eyes as sparkles. Besides it's just WIP.

The things you said like making Troll Warlord's skin to blue, Riki to green, and Storm Spirit to red is just a quick hue change.
Hmmm. Maybe you want the horse of Chaos Knight to be more blue?
