The Dota 2 workshop has models for people to create the custom skins you see in game, so I just used those models and hooked up the dials in blender.

How did you imported dota heroes do tts? Did you created they from the ground?

I used the stats of the existing characters. They came out with the 5 Dota Heroclix pack that came with that map. I've been wanting them to come out with more but I won't hold my breath.

Out of curiousity, did you use the stats of existing characters? or did you use a calculator for the point values? I was curious as i'm considering trying to make some myself (not of dota though)

thanks

Wow that was fast.. Thanks!

I've added both Slark and Undying for you guys over in my other workshop item that is just the standalone Dota figures. I could have imported the Witchdoctor Death Ward too, but it was a bit cumbersome for the Heroclix. I might add it later as it's own object.

Very well done. Can we get an Undying import? I also think it would be cool to see death ward and tombstone models.

No Slark ?

No problem Baryonyx. Not too sure about the wobbles, keep at it I'm sure you'll get it just right. To answer actingman, the models themselves I exported from the Dota site, but I have to manipulate the image files so I can map it to the figures with one single image since TTS doesn't support multiple images for one object. I just started using Blender, but I'm sure there are better applications such as Maya, but Blender was easier for me to pick up and learn.

Thank you very much Saminite, it works. But the thing is, that for some reason the hull of the tank gets very wobbly when I grab the turret. Might be an issue with the custom collision models or the greater distance between nub and turret, not sure about that.

Are you creating your own 3d models? If so, what program are you using? I've tried using/learning Blender, but it's beyond my wee little brain

We'll label your parts B (bot) for a nub like I used, M (mid) for your hull and T(for the turret.) Make a Joint from M to to B and set it as a Hinge Joint with Y axis of 1. Then make a Joint from B to T and set it to a Rigid Joint. This will be the inverse of what I did for my dials. To make it easier to create the joints you should start with your tank flipped upside and put your nub on the underside of the tank. You can test out how it works a bit easier by using two playing cards as your tank parts and a checker as your nub.

Can you explain it a bit further maybe? :P
I want to use it for my tanks like this: When I grab it by the turret, it rotates the turret only (like your lower dial part) - when I grab it by the hull, it should rotate the hull and the turret (like your upper dial parts)

Up next, the new and mysterious albino bane!

The dial is 3 objects, bottom piece for the rotating part, top piece that shows what click you're on and your character stats, and the third piece is hard to see but it's a little nub in the middle. That nub is linked with a rotation so that you can spin just the dial.

Hey, I really like the dial you made. How did you make it so the lower face only turns when you grab that and if you grab the figure or the upper dial plate it turns everything. I have a few similarly working game objects but the second part always turns around when moving the first and vice versa.
