Creating a Warcraft III Model by Hand - Part 2: Faces

Part 1:
   • Creating a Warcraft III Model by Hand...  

This video is the second in a series detailing my journey of creating a fully functional Warcraft III model using nothing but notepad (and later maybe an image editing tool for conversions or a hex-editor). I will write the model in .mdl rather than .mdx because it is human-readable, which makes the video more easy to follow, and because I don’t yet hate myself enough to make an .mdx from scratch.

This time I will combine the vertices created in the last video into faces and thereby create a basic shape that is already somewhat recognizable as a model. Still there is a long way to go from here. Stay tuned for part three (whenever that comes out (chances are it will be another one and a half years))
