[SHOWOFF] What Are You Working On

[schlumpf]

Hope I'm not brushing anybody the wrong way by working on the SDL branch. I plan to work on the Qt branch too, but the Qt branch isn't really usable yet and I'm not equipped with the skills needed to make it more usable — my expertise lies in more traditional UI oriented desktop software, not reading proprietary binary files and drawing things in OpenGL. I can figure these things out (and have just a little bit - I'm working on an M2 tool on the side)but the ramp up time is not going to be short. I figured smoothing out rough edges on NSDL before working on NQt's UI might be a more productive use of my energy.

No worries, I too am working on the SDL branch currently. I discarded the Qt idea
Be sure to visit IRC though to coordinate your work with others, namely Adspartan and me. Also, did I give you write access to the repository already?

Still working on the tilesets.
But now i reach shat and try to bring the new look to it.
Im not sure with the story if it fits(im not so much inside the story).
But i think it looks much nicer than before
Maybe i will recolor the blue crystals into the color on the top of the big building.
Because this greenish is not textur green is vertex or something else green.
But im not yet sure
It is still much to do here.

Working on my noggiting!

Did some road. After some houres you get faster with it

That's insanely impressive. What do you use to model the buildings? How'd you make the roads? Are they textures?

[Amaroth]

Those roads are going above the ground and are turning, those are definitely models.

Got to admit, that place is sick.

First, I wanted to finish the Afterfall project, but Filipsons explained to me why he did not want it. We agreed that I would do a completely different style of world and that I can use Afterfall models. Now I have dozens of my own models. I create them differently, sometimes through m2 / wmo converters (from open 3d DBs) and sometimes as a simple reskin or duplicate of already existing models. Sometimes I just build buildings from different models together. The roads are from the m2 model. I have many kinds, shades, combinations and colors :-)

^ that's really cool. are the power lines separate objects from the poles?

I needed to mod the castbar visual for something I'm working on, but then I got the idea that I could use 3D modeling to create interface textures. I decided to recreate the original castbar as a test:

Pretty nice sculpting. You could even try to create your own animated logo for video-intros. Sadly I never got good results when I tried to sculpt something.

[Kobiesan]

Seeing what everyone else has made makes me feel retarded.

Anyway, here's a star wars loading bar. It's a lightsaber that fills up as the game loads more.

[Steff]

Found some time to do some detail work on the start island.

Your work seems good Steff but I would recommend you to be careful with the bushes, especially the ones placed near the water, they mostly look to be duplicated because their size and even rotation seems to be nearly the same, maybe making some larger would make them look better.

[Steff]

thanks for your tip. this water plant looks the same from every angel. i think i will move it all undermthe water surface and use the other bush outside the water. also the big color difference looks strange i think.

[Steff]

I changed it to this style. Less of the water plants and more under the surface.
