Thx, the textures are still unfinished draft, for testing the UVW maps. They will change for the final model. And yes, this is the low-poly version, except the gattling guns, they are high poly, from my pyro GX model, they have to be replaced by lower poly version. This model without the gatling-gun...

I'm not very familiar with the D3 modding, so I do not know, how custom HOG-files are to be used, but if there are some command-line options, or any text based config files, it should be no problem to create small EXE as launcher.
