(animated) ECO-3 Wind turbine

Description
This wind turbine is heavily inspired by the wind turbines found around belgium. The ECO-3 windturbine, while a little bit smaller than the usual one. Generates as much power as the standard wind turbine, while taking up less space on the map.

I made this because i was bored with the vanilla game wind turbine, and i wanted to challenge myself a bit. This is the result, a complete custom built wind turbine.

This is my work, you are not allowed to edit this and republish it. You are free to edit it as long as you keep it to yourself.

1024x1024 texture size
1300 tri's

LOD: 934 tri's

Want to commission me ?

One of the blades aren't lined up Properly

this was made years before i actually knew what i was doing when making assets for this game, and vertex color animations weren't understood very well back then so yea the functionality isn't up to par with modern assets.

It was the first wind turbine asset with a custom model and texture, and working animation.

these look so damn good but i wish they did change direction with wind. still easily one of the best looking custom asset wind turbines you can find. absolutely georgeous. place on the highest mountains you can find where it would make sense they don't need to change direction much

Looks great! But in my game they also don't change direction with the wind...

Is it me, or don't these wind turbines change when wind direction change. All other turbines do in my game.

- I think you made a comment where you say you cannot make turbine taller (?!) I don't think it is really necessary but I would suggest to make them more "slim". For me they look very fat :) The size of the rotor compare to the hight is correct, you would suggest to make to tower diameter smaller and the nacelle (between the tower and rotor) smaller. Google like Vestas V112 or Siemens 2.3MW or Senvion so you have a better idea what looks like on-shore turbine all over europe (and I guess US too)
Again thank you for your good job and the time you spend on it ;)

Nice Job !! But as a wind turbine technicien may I give you some improvement you should do to make theme more realistic ??! (even if they are already more realistic than the original version's game)
- The rotor rotation on all over the world wind turbines is always running on the same way (clock wise if we stand in front of the turbine), so it correct on your model :)
- The blades on your model are "pitched" 180°, there is a leading and a trailing edge on a blade but you turn them wrong

First thought when I saw this was "Oh it's like the wind turbines near me." I live in Belgium.
