Pinkdot's Models

I actually like this one better, less cartoony I thinkhttp://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://parenting.leehansen.com/downloads/coloring/halloween/images/jolly-roger-clr.gif&imgrefurl=http://parenting.leehansen.com/downloads/coloring/halloween/pages/pirate-flag.htm&h=424&w=550&sz=15&hl=en&start=10&tbnid=emmdh-0nNhQ93M:&tbnh=103&tbnw=133&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dpirate%2Bflag%26gbv%3D2%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3DenSorry, copy/paste, the image icon's not working

This model took me about..... 2 years to complete! Finally it's on SVN. (chest_old_body and chest_old_lid). There's also a skin without coins.

 

 

 

Coins are a tileable texture, so can be used with any other container as well.

Looks great, but I wonder how that would work as loot? Would the player frob the gold texture?

And then be greeted by approximately one hour of the finest "loot" chims and clinks the engine can afford, accompanied by a little counter overflow in the lower right corner

That's a tough one. I for one can see it just being a prop, the player looking at it and saying"not worth the trouble"

 

You see it in movies all the time, the one guy (never the hero) who starts grabbin fistfuls of loot and dropping it all over is always the first to die

 

But, I had a floor of a treasure room like this in Left 4 Dead. I had some loot'props' in there too, it bugged the hell out of everyone that played becuase they couldn't get every last piece.

 

(nice model BTW)

To be honest, I didn't even think about it. I made it mostly as a static prop. Grabbing all that stuff, no matter how technically well done, would be just ridiculous. You can put some goblets or whatever else on top of it, to let player grab anything from that chest.

[Springheel]

It could perhaps work as a single, specialty loot object..."find the treasure chest and you win" kind of thing.

[Baddcog]

Yeah, it could be a good 'end goal' too. Would be good for transitions like in Panova City, find the gold, end mission... Next mission starts back at apartment/next night thing.

I think we can do fine with swapping the coin skin when the player chest is being frobbed (so that some cloth appears after frobbing). It requires a custom frob_action_script, but we can get away with it.

 

The model is awesome by the way. The chest alone (without the coins) is worth gold.
