I hope you're not offended, but I'm somehow not convinced by the looks of that staff at all. It looks very simplistic, the texture suggests that it is some sort of stuffed animal. :unsure:

 

The way I'd approach it would be to go as high-poly as you can with the staff's head and use the sculpting tools to form the details into the snake head - does your modeling software provide any sculpting tools?

No offense taken, crits are important for improvements and works should be counted as a team group effort. I'll take it back into modeler and do some slow poly ramping to see if I can get a more realistic menacing appearance.

 

The modeler I use is wings3d and it does have a tweaking tool.

I went back and did some teaking on the chair. It was rendering really screwed up in game, and had some problems with weird misplaced verts in the uvmap. I also added a working collision mesh and entitydef, and added bottoms to the legs so it can be tipped over. Also added two new skins.

 

The new chair is saved as chair_triangular.

:thumbs up @ SH :

 

I've done some more tweaking and went with a suggested wood variant. With gold fangs and fire opal eyes. I am considering changing out the cloth hand grip for a leather one.

Oops, didn't see this a month ago. That's better, but it's still not ferocious enough (I want it to scare me!) and the grey on the inside of the mouth is odd.

My games | Public Service Announcement: TDM is not set in the Thief universe. The city in which it takes place is not the City from Thief. The player character is not called Garrett. Any person who contradicts these facts will be subjected to disapproving stares.

I don't have the faintest idea on how this press works.

Its a static model, but its models on RL versions, you simple turn the handle at the top that turns the screw with a plate on the bottom. The plate squashes the grapes and the resulting juices are then drained into in barrels and fermented with yeast and bobs yer uncle.

I think what he's getting at is if the plate is at the top, then the screw should be sticking much further up. As it is, there's no room to turn the screw and move the plate down.

      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)?
