Nort Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 Time for another trolly quality image. While waiting for the 3.1.0 update to arrive, I figured I'd make a new map. There are no typical lights in this map. Instead I textured everything in glowing marble. If you squint really hard, you can make out a noblewoman on a balcony. She's pitch black and can't see a thing, but she still panics when she hears your footsteps. Maybe this map is a comment on racism or something - I dunno. I'll keep doodling on it.

Nort Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 I don't know how to model, and so I made a window prefab instead. It's 42 brushes, and 6 entities, per window. I'm going to have lots of windows, so buy new computers. "But Nort, why is it 42 brushes big? Have you handcrafted every brick in it?" Only some of them. "But Nort, didn't that take a stupid amount of time, which you could have spent watching advanced futa porn instead?" It probably took a few hours, yes.

Popular Post JackFarmer Posted July 13, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 13, 2022 Grayman's Legacy: Seeking Lady Leicester "Seeking Lady Leciester" is the second WIP grayman's son donated to the TDM community according to grayman's will. Bikerdude adopted the mission in June 2021. I asked Bikerdude how he is doing with this particular WIP, so he sent me the following pictures, which I'm allowed to post here: I have no idea how Biker did the reflective water effect in the second shot (pretty sure this is not something from the core mod) Anyhow, I think grayman would like these pictures. More information will follow in due course. 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chakkman Posted July 13, 2022 Report Share Posted July 13, 2022 Bit of a shame that he can't communicate directly here, or at TTLG. I know of the drama which occured, but, if he's still actively mapping then it's a bit unfortunate that others have to post the screenshorts or mission announcements for him. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AluminumHaste Posted July 13, 2022 Report Share Posted July 13, 2022 Second shot isn't reflection from what I can see. Looks great, and biker will take great care of the mission. 1 Quote I always assumed I'd taste like boot leather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks more like light below the water as well as the wooden beams continuing there, distorted by heat haze. There are, however, means to create reflections in tdm. For one you can use realtime reflections (mirrorMap), which are performance houngry and, at least the last time I played with them, unstable (got some nasty ctd's). The other approach are cubemaps. There is a wiki article dealing with the latter. There was also a thread once discussing another approach, also using shaders.

From the Fractured Glass Discord chat with Biker regarding the image in question: "this is the current more realistic water at night with reflections, the issue is the reflections are nothing of the sort, just a decal over the top faking some semplance of it..."

More information will follow in due course. That second shot with the reflective water is very atmospheric. I am thinking if used properly in future missions it will have the same leverage as the first implementation of soft shadows for the dark mod. One thing I believe TDM is lagging in the realism department is the lack of high quality low height vegetation. It is unbelievable how much more realistic a scene can be with that aspect added. But who am I to tell. Edited July 22, 2022 by kin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
