Butterfly

Low poly, ~50, animated butterfly.

playThreads:

0, "flap0" slow
0, "flap1" fast

dts rar

Might be useful as a prop.

EDIT - added LODs per Steven's suggestion.

Thanks!! Very cute Butterfly.

I downloaded it and we will test it in our gameworld. I am always looking for more 3D models! Thank you!

Looks really good. Just a thought. You might want some LOD stuff in there so when you are farther away it is more on the order of 2-4 polys, that way it won't be such a performance hit when you try to have 30-40 butterflies in and area, along with all your other content.

Awww I didn't see you had updated your model I just added this to my Demo this week. I will add your new LOD version in a future update. Really though 50 polys is EXCELLENT. Cute butterfly too. Do you have the source model so I can change the texture on it to get some different colored butterflies?

That's what it looks like in my game world right now. Just thought you'd like to see it. I have a quest for them planned also, (why I need more than one color of butterfly) but we haven't got quests working yet. Thanks!

Hmmm... can't seem to find the Max file.

But you could just make different folders, copy the files into them and edit the textures.
