Terraining Contest #4 - Construction

[SuperCow]

i'm going to make a temple

 

[Childeric]

Champ, make multiple escorting airships?

Yes Saber I actually planned on that, as well as some floating air docks of some sort. Making a slight effort to recreate Lindblum from FFIX. Keyword slight. =)

 

[lord_ken]

Holy... Famous is gonna own this Contest if he finishes his.

 

[Hawkwing]

Second wip. Having trouble deciding how to do the city, and what tile variation to use. No imports makes it interesting. =)

Nice, but I don't think it should be floating. >.>

Not liking this too much so far. Will probably change concept. Supposed to be Mount Blizzmore. D:

Didn't think you'd be able to pull it off so well.

 

[Gausslander]

Real Submission.

 

[Traxamillion]

[thedeathunterxx]

[Belgarath]

[Ribenamania]

Terrain Contest #4 Entry - Construction

Ok ~ This may be my entry or maybe not. I deleted the dinosaur and made a gaint rock thing..Well, I personally not liking this much till now.. weird, just weird..

Rumors spreaded "There is a gaint statue made out of rock called monolith reaper located at Baelin, some said it protects the Town of Barrens"

 

[Volvox]

Use more small rocks to build that whatever, jumbled textures never look good in contest submissions.

Yeah, it will be at the next update.. still thinking what should I put to cover some blank places.

 

[-Berz-]

I'll join.(I'm new to this) But I'm not sure, I don't have much time...

So what I need to do?
-a screen with some construction on it
-and I need to post a few screens in progress
-mus it be playeble
-and i have like a week left
-?

I have an idea in my head, its a temple in the night(in dark gray fog) some some evil "torches"(more like fire pits) than a temple with scary entrance and some green light source in it

Wip #2

'Second WIP! Say hello to my uppcoming -...... Super-Ultra-Hyper-Pwnage-Tree-Monster-of-Ultimate-Destruction!

 

[lord_ken]

I don't get why there are alot of glows on it.

 

[Gilles]

I would prefer if people didn't use WEU, but go ahead if you must for the extra tiles.

 

[Kwah]

First WIPs.

 

[Hawkwing]

Interesting, very interesting. Honestly, that's all I can say for now.

 

[communist_orc]

Ahhhh cant spinn models!!!!

... communist orc its the max pitch angle or whatever that turns it, you just have to shift+double-click it
and do -3.14 or the other one that
i don't remember.

Dude, it dosnt....
1st: you cant type in a negative number in the "max pitch" field...
2nd: If i hold down shift and double click the model nothing happens...

if i just doubleclick the model the thing in the second pic comes... but you can only spinn the model on the floor withh that....

Do i have a old version of the editor or is it caus my WCIII German?

 

[redscores]

No its because you are stupid.

Click with shift on the variable till it opens, then you can change to negative.

And my editor is german too, in all versions worked that.

 

[Argus]

You shift-click the field to enter negative values.
EDIT: Sorry, I was typing when you made your comment, redscores.

 

[NearbyHermit]

Hmm,I'm in this,making monuments and impersonations is one of my pros!

Anyway,I have one thing to state:

It's the hardest Terrain Contest ever,why does it have such a small reward?

 

[Kwah]

No one cares about reputation. Award icons are what matter. Any comment on my terrain, Hermy?

 

[NearbyHermit]

Wow are you in this?
Where's your terrain?

EDIT:

Oh,well,I see you're aiming the Great Construction,I sudgest you make it rather complex ,more ladders and lots and lots of collumns and archways.

Or go for impersonation!

 

[Kwah]

Scroll up. Top of the page. Not done, not WIP.

I'm in this.

So, far Child is decimating.

These are my sudgestions

 

[Kwah]

Roger. That is just going to be the entrance.

I hate how copying doodads doesn't take their height though, eh?

 

[NearbyHermit]

Roger. That is just going to be the entrance.

What do you mean?
Set a certain value,not varying from X to Y!

That's the mistake in most cases

 

[Kwah]

When you increase doodad height with Ctrl-Pg Up/Down and then go Ctrl-C, followed by Ctrl-D it returns to original level.

This could just be me though . . .

 

[NearbyHermit]

No,it's true what you say!

But I simply use the hard way,select the doodad from the Custom Panel,each one,you don't have to mass doodads,you must specifically place them.

This thing radically increases their aspect and originality!

 

[Kwah]

Looks at the columns. That equates mass placing.

 

[Just_Spectating]

how do you rotate doodads on a mac?


Shift click opens the value, but inserting - values after that and applying makes it 0 again.

 

[Oziris]

Made new terrain, here:

 

[lnfernal]

WIP

Wanted to create the Eiffel Tower, but too hard

 

[Oziris]

I really like the idea! it looks great!

 

[Ribenamania]

Here you go! My entry.. this may not be my final one..
EDIT: Calculated shadow map

Contest Entry - Terrain Contest #4

 

[Pyritie]

Lol.

At the moment it just looks like it was photoshopped on or something. Maybe run the "Calculate shadow map"?

 

[lord_ken]

Whoa, Ribe, There are some orange shadows that look like they're sky diving.

 

[Ribenamania]

Lol.

Sorry, can't get what you meant.
EDIT: Calculated Shadow Map.

Whoa, Ribe, There are some orange shadows that look like they're sky diving.

Where's those shadows? Do you mean those orange thing below every block of cactus?

 

[Pyritie]

Sorry, can't get what you meant.

File > Save and Calculate Shadow Map

or something like that.

 

[Kwah]

Oziris, you're doing something wrong.

You can see the sky, and a players start location. That shouldn't be possible as far as I know.

EDIT: NEW WIP!

 

[Hawkwing]

I don't like how you can see into the temple through the spaces between the pillars.

 

[Kwah]

I kinda have to agree there. Closer pillar spacing R us.

 

[Naze]

Wip, wip, WIP!

 

[frostwhisper]

Gets my vote.

 

[Gausslander]

Mine as well.


And...

My final submission.

I think it says 'construction' more then a plain eye.

 

[Kwah]

Naze's is ubar smexy. I'm waiting for the construction though.

Syth, its an interesting take on the theme, but I don't like the terrain that much.

 

[AirHead]

Naze if we reversed the theme so it was no doodads you would win, hands down. that terrain looks good as it is, can't wait for construction.

 

[Gilles]

Mine as well.


And...

My final submission.

I think it says 'construction' more then a plain eye.

I don't see how that says construction at all. It's a bunch of units and trees.

 

[Gausslander]

Those are the wagons from the campaign.

They are carrying the supplies for arcane buildings

 

[NearbyHermit]

I like that Taj-Mahal construction!And I await something good from Scyth...

I wonder if Childeric and the others are participating?
