Hey,

I did this awhile back, saved one of them out as a module so they could be added together to make

a row of them. I did a lot of stuff like this back in the quake days, but of course couldn't be used

in that game, however they were all oversized, fortunately GTKRadiant can perfectly

resize brushes and patches without errors. :D

 

I made this when the first Harry Potter came out and tried to make Hogwarts in quake, didn't really work, but

the map still looks good.

 

Rescale is further down.

Nice!

 

You should take that a stage further by making all the intricate struts out of shaped patch tubes with the same textures as the lower floor supports

 

- I can show you an example if you like?

Oh I see what you mean, not sure that would work that well with the texture used on the pillars. You mean make the arches out

of the same texture as the pillars. I felt it needed to be different.

What Judith said. The pillars should be at least size of a man, preferrably taller. That makes the arches easier to monsterclip too, because you just need to monsterclip the pillar and the arch-work is above the AI you do need to think about it in terms of AI pathing.

It's a good idea, but the scale feels off. Since it's a gothic architecture, the columns alone should be like 96 or 128. Right now it looks like you can barely go under those arches.

 

[Edit] Rescale is above

 

That's not a problem, I can fix that in few minutes. I reduced this from the original by 40%, as the original was way out of scale. Here's

a rescale of it, only takes a minute to rescale in GTK Radiant. In Dark Radiant it takes much much longer, as XY & Z can't be all changed

in one step. You have to scale X, then Y then Z and that turns the object into a mess. Being able scale all XYZ in one go means

you can do perfect rescales.

 

As for MC, that's easy too with something like this. Since you only need to clip those things that are an AI can reach. :)

Sure I'll PM it to you Biker, I don't think it's ready for release yet, as there's issues from porting it over from gtkradiant.

That is really nice BD. Originally, mine was to be used to open border a courtyard of a monestary. So I never gave

a thought to them as windows.

 

I like it. I have a heap of prefabs I've done, eventually when I think they are good enough quality, I'll upload them for

the community. I want to learn modelling so I can make some nice furniture.

Here is an alternative first draft on the arch, all snapped to grid, symmetrical and with some ornate windows -

It looks good, although columns have those horizontal splits that don't contribute to their shape at all, since they're all straight. The same goes for arches' shape: until you give them a diffuse/normal that shows that shape, it won't be visible in the ambient light (your image image in lower left corner shows it best IMO).

Dammit, why does this forum keep removing images from posts? The original image is still there.

I can see all the images on the thread, are you sure your not blocking any cookies..?

 

Wierd. No I'm not. I've not changed any of my settings, but from today I don't see images anymore. I'm glad

others can though. So that's good.

 

Thanks BD

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
