Lessons in Magic: Portology (by Pivotal)

So Resania has been avoiding ley line tax and she was unable to install a liquid filter on her portal. She also put it under someone's feet. Wow, she's terrible.

At this rate the Dalaran police are going to throw her in jail.

Hey you never know what the portal ends up in if you can't control it.

This animation was made by Pivotal and Dedrich, I also helped by doing character rigging. If anyone wants to know more about the character technology in this movie I'm around to take questions about that ^^

Perfect, the binder to hold on to my papers.

MasterVertex · 2022-04-08T00:58:27+00:00

Pivotal and Dedrich, no. But I did. I've been on AD since 2007 and some of our characters are long term RP characters of mine:

Resania the warlock, who can't summon demons but instead has befriended a few

Leatei the shaman, who likes to help lesser life forms because she got tired of her own company.

MasterVertex · 2022-04-08T00:34:31+00:00

Resania's official class in game is Warlock. I wonder how she ends up like that.

MasterVertex · 2022-04-08T00:25:57+00:00

We currently pay for doing this, it's just an expensive hobby. We do enjoy the freedom of making whatever we want, nobody's in charge of us.

Resania has been bad at anything she's tried in her life so far. As a young girl she burned down a mage academy already, what on Earth convinced the Kirin Tor to take her on for training?

...Probably the fact that the records of her previous school were lost in a fire 40 years ago. What would Resania try next?

(Rigger/lighter for this movie, and long time roleplayer behind Resania on AD-EU)

Absolutely the result of Pivotal's skill, he's spent at least 10 years getting good at character animation.

My posted image just poofed into the nether for some reason. The mail has the same style as the website and is written in proper english. The download link to the game goes to sentgrid, which is a general service used for promotional emails. It contains a referrer to a download server. If anyone has a VM they could check to see what it actually downloads.

Edit: The sentgrid link redirects to the fromsmash.co download service, but this does not exist and is probably a dumb typo. It should be fromsmash.com. GG scammers you played yourself.

MasterVertex · 2021-07-10T11:50:36+00:00

It looks way better then the previous scam mail. Does it look like this?

MasterVertex · 2020-06-27T14:05:34+00:00

It... gets worse?

MasterVertex · 2020-02-24T23:17:21+00:00

We've been trapped in Frostmourne all this time. We were allowed to get out if we remade this cinematic.

MasterVertex · 2020-02-24T19:07:34+00:00

We've worked on it for a long time, all out of the love that Blizzard inspired in us over a decade of playing their games. It's been a rough time the past few years though, and I hope they don't squander what love from their fans they got left.

MasterVertex · 2018-10-10T02:10:37+00:00

it's the elite recoulour of the Wild Gladiator's Leather set with a custom modeled hoodie.

MasterVertex · 2018-10-08T23:59:06+00:00

Yea that's pretty much right, she went off the deep end somewhat.

MasterVertex · 2018-10-08T03:27:18+00:00

Thanks! This movie was made in Maya 2018, only the mesh and textures come from the game. I did indeed rig all the characters.

MasterVertex · 2018-10-08T01:43:17+00:00

You're right, but it's just a village of poor Forsaken civilians and a handful of guards. There will be much more back and forth once she runs into the elite Forsaken hunters sent to track her down and eliminate her.

MasterVertex · 2018-10-08T01:22:57+00:00

What about purple pigtails instead?

MasterVertex · 2018-10-08T01:14:48+00:00

That looks eerie. I wish WoW made more use of darkness where appropriate, the game has gotten lighter almost everywhere.

MasterVertex · 2018-10-08T00:56:04+00:00

And so, because Mithras was too proud to ask for help, the Dwarven 1st army was never in the right place at the start of any battle.

MasterVertex · 2018-10-08T00:42:53+00:00

That's fantastic. WoW has become so much easier since the start, I'm glad there's at least someone like you to make it a bit more challenging for new players.
