Title: Scene props
Post by: The Red Baron on May 11, 2009, 01:23:00 AM
After going through the scene props offered, i realize that we need to make scene props for the special places in Alegasia,

I thought we could have something like this in the elven cities:

(did it in like 5 minutes)
(possibly as a tower with this extension)

Something similar to fantasy mod (if you've seen in) but more advanced
Trees connected by bridges and stuff for elves.

Dwarves need stone halls, which is easier, because there is more already ingame that we can use

Varden/empire can use the ingame stuff.

Basically, post ideas/pictures of stuff we need for that.  I'll work on them for now until we can get more modelers

Here is some idea's on design and such.

The one thing to remember is that the elves shaped the trees into homes. So there shouldn't be much metal/unnatural materials.

So, we need a modeller (Baron?) on the scene props. MISHO is  going to scene for us, but he needs scene props for it.

Download Fantasy mod for 0.808. You will not believe the number of elf props which would be perfect fro this. AFAIK the stuff is now basically open source since no FM team are active, just credit fantasy mod.

True I'm looking at that right now, and also,
Sibylla has agreed to come on to the team to work on modeling.
Welcome Sibylla

Check out what i've got, based on Lothlorien

(http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss69/RedBaron_SD/Treehouse_2.jpg)

I figure there will be a big one of these for the "Castle"

EDIT: Texturized
(http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss69/RedBaron_SD/Treehouse_jpg.jpg)

Not that good at texturizing :flashy:

I'm gonna make the tunnel tree & the sword, as for the bridge I don't know do you guys want the trees to be connected or we just let the player to climb the stairs each time he want to go up ??? :)

Post by: Jubal on May 27, 2009, 08:31:37 PM
Connected for certain. I refuse to spend that quantitiy of my precious time climbing stairs to get to some damn pointy ears. Particularly considering I don't have the option of burning the tree down and bringing them down to ground level. In a flaming heap.

I agree with you.

Quote from: "Evil2828"surely the stairs were inside the trees :ermm:
Some may of been. Some may not. 'Tis no problem. Anyway if they hollowed out the trees to put stairs in the trees would've died. The elves probably wouldn't do that. Unless they were shaped with magic. I'm not sure how that is done so i've no idea if the elves could've done it.

Yeah, they were all shaped with magic. Eragon lived in a hollowed out tree during his stay with the elves. And it explained it then.
