Quanon Posted November 8, 2009 Author Posted November 8, 2009 Last 2 days have been very productive in the 3D department. Started to work on the inside of the temple. What I got so far is named the "Archives", just like the Jedi temple, but this time its full of knowledge of the Sith Of course the temple is old and the archives had some damage dealth to them. Other extra bits include a section of corridors and a sort of mini room. That fits between bigger rooms and above mentioned hallway. All that together is about 1/4 of my temple. Polycount is already at 10.000+, though for indoor areas this is less bad. As you can never see everything in one go. That was differant for my city, you could see a lot at once, so that required a more carefull aproach and more cleaning up. So for the indoor I'm a bit more free to go "wild". I am keeping it in check though, to the best of my abilities Now, enough of the jibberish, picture time: With these last shots I used a crazy material, it reflects and its glossy Rendering can be so much fun!
Lord2 Posted November 8, 2009 Posted November 8, 2009 Looks good but the pictures are... a BIT too dark - or?
juansaman Posted November 8, 2009 Posted November 8, 2009 As usual, when Quanon dissapears by some days it's always a good sign. It means he has more stuff to show. Your idea looks very interesting. I'll be watching your progress with a lot of interest.

Quanon Posted November 8, 2009 Author Posted November 8, 2009 jonathan7 said: You've never seen a proper horror film have you? Think Alien; it's not too dark Héhéhé, that was a bit the intention, plus it'll be a good counter balance to the more "happy bright" sunny canyon and city. Lord2 said: Looks good but the picture are... a BIT too dark - or? Yes, I must confess, I should've payed more attention to what the quality setting was for my JPEGs. They're quiet grainy, well plain ugly. So thing get more blurry then they should've been, my apologies dear viewers. I'll try to come back with some better shots.
ForeverNight Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 I'm afraid now.... Actually, very nice images! I finally have 3ds 2010 on my comp and have been playing around with it, lights are really 'fun' to play around with. Why do you make me want to play this even more so!? Why do you torment us!
Quanon Posted November 9, 2009 Author Posted November 9, 2009 Cause I worship Satan and he said I needed to tempt the Star Wars geeks!

Anyway, the new shots are looking great too... Makes me want to get back to modding, but bleh, I will have to reinstall TSL. I think the areas look a tad bit too dark too, but not much, just a little bit less dark would be awsum.
Quanon Posted November 9, 2009 Author Posted November 9, 2009 Okay, since my latest pictures weren't of that good quality I did some new renders. And this time I saved it under a better quality. Enjoy! Its still dark, but thats a bit how the area should be.
Marius Fett Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 I hope the Sith have been keeping their insurance up to date. Looks like someone's robbed all their lights. I quite like this area. Looking forward to running round it.
Rinku Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 Yes this is very nice keep up the good work (This would be a good place to have a nerf war ).
disbeliever Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 Man if you ever wanted to make a zombio mod, this could be it resident eviiiiiiiiiiiil
JuniorModder Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 How exciting! Looks very nice! It'll be better once you get some more texturing in there. JuniorModder

ForeverNight Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 .............. Speechless....... ..............

Now this area looks like it could use some of those "glow rods" that they cut from KotOR1.

Agreed, wait - glow rods?! COOL. Anyways Quanon, it should be dark, and it might look better once we actually play through it, but I still think there should be some light leaking through the ceiling or something. JuniorModder
logan23 Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Looks great from what I can see, but the images need to be lighten even if they are done in photoshop just to show the area off. Keep it up =)

Keep it up =) No worries, I'll do some lighter renders once the thing has textures. Plus things will become more clear. For now I'll just keep you guys in the dark I'm in my dark period xD all nonsense aside, I did move on a bit; created the "centrale" hall, the first big thing you'll see when you come rushing in. My favourite shot
HdVaderII Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 Wow, the central hall looks great, even if a tad bit dark for my tastes. Thats an incredible looking statue in the middle Q!
juansaman Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 Looks great, as far as I can see though Will you add night vission glasses or something like that? Seriously: it looks quite promising and, more important, thrilling and interesting. Keep it up, Q. EDIT: Now that I'm looking to the pictures at home and not at the office using that lame screen monitor, I can say this: WOW great use of light and shadows, man!
Demongo Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 This is much better than the most of the in-game areas. seriously:indif:

Another part has been added, not fully ready yet, just needs some minor damage added to it. Not as badly as the archives though. Kind a like a cathedrale/church which was the aim I think this place will need some frescoos depicting legendary battles from the Sith. Would be nice, though I have no idea how to work that out
Lord2 Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 I really like that first picture, that cathedral feeling is captured. I agree with Demongo; you have some variety in your modules, some unique ideas. Of course, there are some cool areas in the game but not many. Anyway, well done!
FaZzZa99 Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 I'm curious, will this require you reuse kotor's default module map layouts?
