Garden Statue W/ Solar System


Darkness_Falls

Recommended Posts

I was thinking this marble/concrete statue could be used in a mansion garden. Light sparkles drip from between his fingers like sand, as solid gold orbs representing planets magically rotate around a mini-sun, like a solar system. Even little moons would rotate around the planets. I've just always been fascinated by little mechanically rotating solar system contraptions you might see on a desktop. If I were to see the below in-game, I'd probably watch it for an hour...

I could easily script a solar system if you like...

Awesome! I think you should. Instead of mirroring our own solar system with Earth in it, I think it'd be cool to make up a solar system of (y)our own, to reinforce the fact that Thief is 'other worldly.' Unless, that is, everyone else thinks Thief takes place on Earth... ?

 

Now there's just the small task of modelling the thing.

Easy, for some. oDDity? ;) He cranked out "The David" in a couple weeks. Surely this is nothing for him...

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?
