New mission in the works.

WOW man my brother made a tree modle 5 years agbo for descent for this island map.
i wish he still had it.

Restarting this in the beginning of November. Should have a few more hours in the day without studying a couple papers as well as a full-time job.

I've started to put the textures together. This room would work better with some tree props, though. Not going to attempt to make those out of cubes.

I'll put some fog planes in here as well to give it a bit of atmosphere. Then it needs more lights - which, again, I'm thinking of using props for.

dude that is amazing! congrats on the work! Clap

That's just... wow...

It's amazing. Really! I can't wait to play it!

You could create and use tree objects. If you wish, I could add an object property disabling collision checking for it.

Hey Ben, it looks great!

BTW, if you want to use trees, i've used some on PM (a Beta with 3 levels that Diedel, Blarget and some others have tested) using ASE models.

If you wish, i can send you the PM beta if you want to check how i put those trees there.
It was a bit hard but the effort worths it.

This area won't actually be accessible, just viewable through the glass at the front. Disabled collisions may be useful elsewhere though.

I should really have a look at PM anyway, but getting statics working shouldn't be any problem; just means I have to open up Blender again until I get Maya at home.

Another part of the same complex. I'm going to add a door there.

Middle tier.

Outside the basement. The rock and concrete textures are going to need changing, I think - just not enough detail at the moment. That hole is where an airlock door is going.

Amazing, AGAIN! You're doing an awesome job... I'll admit, I've never seen your levels before, and they look great! I would LOVE to beta test this when it comes out. Smile

Is this the level you were formerly building in D3? It looks familiar.

It is.

I put that one together in Blender, but on seeing no way to get that into D3 without redoing all the textures, I put that aside. At this point there's actually more capacity in D2X-XL than there is in D3.

Well, I'm back to texturing this again, in between trying to figure out what file formats work and struggling to see anything amongst the DMB rendering bugs. Hopefully I'll have it coloured in by the end of the week, then I can start on some models.

More of the central nervous system of the facility. The animated D3 forcefields and the screen are going to be changed to new textures, and the lighting should improve a bit with some light objects later on. I had to use flares in the big room to make things visible in the foreground.

How you managed to bring it to descent from Blender?
