So, what are you working on right now?

[Bikerdude]

Old or broken furniture, storage, dusty or hidden loot (paintings, chalices, wine, etc)

 

Lots of cobwebs and dust! and some lore friendly windows (skylights)

[nbohr1more]

Currently working on a rich merchant's manor. But I'm stumped on the attic. Got any ideas what kinds of purposeful rooms it could contain? It's very spacious.

Inventory storage? Lots of duplicate objects stacked in different sections. Crates, sacks, wine racks.

 

Jewelry appraisal room? Magnifying lens, jewel piles, etc.

 

Spare clothing room? Large racks of hanging garments.

[UberMann]

Quick response! Thanks guys! I like the skylights and jewelry room ideas. I thought about putting lots of storage junk there, of course, but it just felt too... unimaginative? But with a jewelry room that place will have a lot of purpose!

Seeing as i'm in the final crunch mode of my WIP I wanted to share off one last batch of screenshots before beta (current goal is to hit beta by the end of this year)

Really like the creativity and the amount of detail you put into those interiors.

[Obsttorte]

Wanna play

[NeonsStyle]

Really liking these images, from both Goldwell and Bikerdude. Awesome stuff. Can't wait to play them.

[Dragofer]

This looks like an incredibly creative mission Goldwell

[R Soul]

I recently figured out how to export from Blender to DR using the lwo exporter.

Pretty excited to play the map, Goldwell!

 

Here's an update on my WIP. I took about a month long break from it. Sad news for those expecting my new mission but hey, look at it from the bright side! That was one month I wasn't stuck in a rut and now I'm back working on it with some new ideas.

 

Here is a screenshot from what I'd done before:

 

 

 

And another of the room I made over the last two days:

Very nice use of light there!

[Bikerdude]

Very nice use of light there!

Indeed, the semi-transparent curtain is brilliant. I never thought of doing that before (doh!) what tupe of light did you use Omni I guess..?

 

What is that long projection light in the second shot, it looks awesome :-)

 

NB. the shots a very dark btw.

Thought I would post a very hi-res screengrab of the city map a few of us have been working on -

It is omni lights, the curtain materials is where the magic happens, it's off a codeblock either on my or Epifire's mapping threads.

 

The model is the harbour light Epifire made that's been included in 2.05 and the projection texture is the grate6 nbhor1 added with the cubemap update, but updated with a custom falloff.

 

They're supposed to be. I assure you it looks proper in-game, and there is always the gamma setting.

[Amadeus]

Oh yes, another city mission! Super stoked, biker, keep up the good work!

[Amadeus]

I don't think Braeden gets enough love, so here is my attempt at it.

[DeTeEff]

 

If everybody else's going to show their beautiful missions, I can't resist so show some of my work... Can't decide upon making a hotel or a museum...

[Spooks]

I really like that, Fieldmedic!

 

 

Here is my art test room for the current thing I'm doing. I'm also looking at making some modules, which is a lot of numbers and not a lot of flash so this is pretty much the only thing worth showing at the moment.

[Obsttorte]

Nice one, Spooks. Two notes if I may dare

1. Guessing from the brightness of the light that comes through the windows, their glass should be more brighter and less blueish.
2. It is a matter of taste, but the stone window frames stand a bit in contrast to all the wooden panels. Also it looks odd that they stand out that much.

Love the skeleton, though

[Spooks]

Thanks, yeah, it's a shame that Spring's exterior mansion windows don't have an interior variation. I think a skin change can work in this case but I'm still not so sure if the geometry of the model will fit the interior, even when indented in the wall.

[Bikerdude]

I made a number of interior prefabs for one set of the external wall/window sets.

I created a lit skin for that window, should be on SVN.

Is interior_mansion01/window01_seperate.lwo not in 2.05? I can send it to you if not, but I'm pretty sure it is.

It is. He probably missed the interior folder.

That is an interior version of mansion01_window02, what I used in the screenshot was mansion01_window04, which is both way bigger and only has one row of windowpanes.

I assume this is on the speedbuild thread you made? Thanks, I'll take a look and see.

Sorry, I should have looked more closely. That model was made for the church in the update to St Lucia...it's not actually to scale with any of the mansion modules, although it uses the same style. That's why there's no internal version, since it's taller than the internal modules. I could make a version with a smaller wooden frame if you like.
