MCU's Ancient One would be a very cool mod!

I agree with the other assessments of Starfire. Those should be sufficient to get a good idea of how to translate her into a mod. If there's still more that needs clarity, you could probably glean more from descriptions of her powers on Wikipedia, and/or maybe just key episodes of Teen Titans as opposed to the entire show (I'm embarrassed to say that I can't remember a lot of specific ones that would be helpful, save for perhaps a few; "Troq" demonstrates that she is very physically strong and resilient to energy damage, while "Snowblind" shows that she is immune to certain harmful forms of radiation).

If it really comes down to it, I do recall Starfire has the least amount of her own dedicated episodes on that show; in fact, she's the only Titan not to have her own TV season dedicated to her own story arc (there may be 5 core Titans and 5 seasons, but Season 2 was used on Terra).

Everyone, I will work on the Ancient One soon. However, I'll admit to you all that it may take some time, as I have to create the skin for her, and we all know that I'm not that fast at skins. I can create mods relatively fast, but not skins. In case anyone is wondering, I didn't request anyone to convert her model from Marvel Future Fight, as I don't like that she looks weak and scrawny. Anyway, we'll see how it goes.

ANCIENT ONE

Remember when you went to :strange: Dr. Strange's Sanctum Santorum, you had to take to Gem of Oshtur to a large mirror so that you could talk to his mentor? The words spoken was that a watchful eye would be kept on the situation. Well now, the Ancient One decided to appear and fight alongside the team!!! Oh, but not the old man from Tibet. I'm referring to the kick-ass female Celtic version from the Doctor Strange movie! Now you can educate as you obliterate! She has awesome powers and skills worthy of a master of the mystic arts. Check her out.

UPDATE: Updated her special conversation to coincide with the new EXG.


FEATURES:
-6 powers, 3 boosts, and an Xtreme.
-Abilities of Book of The Vishanti (Cannot be mind-controlled, gains energy slightly faster, 50% chance of resurrection if defeated), and Magical Skills (Can teleport herself and others, can control enemy minds, can create magical sentries, and can traverse to different locations, all while speaking words of wisdom).
-Grab Smash can petrify enemies!
-7 hex-edited skins, 6 HUDs, loading screen, icons, 2 mannequins, and sound files voiced by talented actress Tilda Swinton.
-Uses assigned number #31 (shares with Banshee. Will clash in mannequin.)
-Has a special conversation with the mirror at the Sanctum Santorum.

MOVESET:
1. Spirit Punch: Punches the enemy's soul out of his/her body, stunning them.
2. Mystical Levitation: Telekinetically moves enemies or objects.
3. Orbs of Haggoth: Fires multiple projectiles of magic energy.
4. Illusion: Briefly creates the mirage of a massive monster to scare enemies, causing mental trauma.
5. Elemental Force: Blasts enemies with combined lasers of fire, ice, and electricity.
6. Teleport Arts: Teleports to multiple enemies and attacks them with martial arts skill.
7. (Boost) Sands of Time: Slows down time except for the Ancient One and her team.
8. (Boost) Gem of Oshtur: Empowers the team with increased power damage and momentum. Will also deflect projectiles and beams.
9. (Boost) Resurrection: Revives her teammates at the cost of all her energy.
10. (Xtreme) Vishanti Dragon: Morphs into a gigantic dragon and breathes Falteen fire at all enemies.

Very epic work, Outsider!

Great work as always!

Awesome!

Looking forward to trying it out.

Thanks for the compliments. I am certain that the Ancient One will please anyone who liked her in the movie. And, I've noticed that Aventureiromax converted skins for her. I can't check them yet, so feel free to inform me how they look on the mod.

Interesting Note: Counting the three secret mods, I have made a total of 140 character mods! (No worries, the secret mods do not count towards the "Road To 150.") I find it astounding that I've done so many... Modding is not easy work at all, but it's easier if you like doing it as a side hobby. If one likes doing something, then it doesn't really feel like work -- especially if you like the character you're creating.

So, who's next? Well, as I've promised, my next mod is the winner of my recent poll, Starfire. I will take into consideration all of your suggestions, and perform some research on Princess Koriand'r. The idea is for her to play well alongside Robin, Cyborg, Raven, Beast Boy, and Wonder Girl. (You all get why.) Stay tuned...



It's going to be really awesome to finally have a Starfire mod! I know you'll do her justice!

Great mod, Outsider! The Ancient One mod is really fun!
I'm facing a bug on it ... it's on the Xtreme. When the xtreme animation starts the game suffers a crash and close. Can you help me with this? The mod is really cool! Congratulations and thank you!

I'm unsure what may be causing it, as it works fine on my game. Hasn't crashed once. Question: Does it crash before she turns into the dragon? If so, it may be the dragon skin -- but that's weird because it was hex-edited. If anyone else has that problem, let me know.

Also, Anderson -- I have the free 30-day trial of 3DS Max 2019 in the hopes of converting my own models. I've tried following your tutorial videos (even though they are in Portuguese), but it's just not working. Maybe because it's a different system? I think I'm WAY over my head here...

Outsider, I was able to solve the problem. I think at the time of installation, I somehow omitted a skin.

As for 3ds max, unfortunately it is not possible to convert skins to MUA other than through 3ds max 4.2, 5 or 5.1. This is because of the Alchemy tool which exports the model in "igb" format ... unfortunately, at the time it was designed to work only in this version. If there's any other way to change that, probably!
I believe that a specialist such as Konstantin Nosov, also known as Gildor, has the ability to reconfigure the Alchemy tool to run on more current versions of 3ds max ...

Unfortunately, those 3DSMax only works on XP & Vista

Wow... Starfire sure has a lot of projectile attacks...

Nah, doesn't work on Vista, either. My previous laptop that I had for 13 years used Vista as its operating system, and it was no good there, either. Aventureiromax confirmed to me that it only works on Windows XP, which he has.

Good to hear that the problem was fixed. As for 3DS Max, I've given up on that. I'll leave that to the professionals and focus on what I do, which is modding.


Great! Outsider been Outsider. Another great mod!
