Chain Link Fence / Sand Bags Needed!

[ThisPOT]

Hi everyone, I am making a Command & Conquer multiplayer map and I am in dire need of a good looking Chain Link Fence and/or Sand Bags!

I have seen the sandbags model but as I am going to use them as constructable buildings and not doodads i need them to have a 180 degree and a 270 degree variation (as you can not rotate buildings... or I don't know how).

The files need to be under 100kb all together please! (map almost over 4kb cant afford more or won't be able to host it ;p)

I'll take a look into it. If you could, could you find a ***free*** and usable texture online? I'm rather crappy at them. A ***free*** picture of the fence or bags i could make into a texture.

EDIT: it should amount to about 10-20k total, depending on the texture size

 

[ThisPOT]

would be a nice model for the Chain Link Fence, but if the barbed wire could stick out on both sides (like a Y) would be even better! =D.

would be great for a Sand Bag wall.

By the way i am using the Stone Wall base for the pathing map.
And please make 2 versions 1 at 180 degrees and 1 and 270, and i'll love you forever =).

if you could also make me a Concrete Wall that would be great, as long as its gray and tall it ll do the job =) no need for anything fancy just needs to look real tough to break (thick and super tall).

 

[3rgytr54]

could i get a "head" on picture of both. Like a single sand bag and one section of fencing. The barbed wire can be done. Also, the fence i can make will be a section of fence with one end without and end pole, and i can give you the end pole as a separate model, or make it have an animation where the one pole is invisible and you can (in doodad properties) make it only use "alternate" animations.

EDIT: just noticed your post-- concrete is do-able with that picture, and does it need to be build-able? and the oddly looks like my house's foundation.. but the windows are slightly different

EDIT2: in fear of getting neg-repped please combine those into one post, the minimum time for second posts it 48hrs

EDIT3: picture uploaded

 

[ThisPOT]

Here are some images that might help you with the Sand Bag Wall:

Having a hard time finding good piece Chain Link Fences but this is what i got:

Hope this helps =)
(On another note, how to i merge both my posts? or re-edit them? i can't seem to find that option )
And yes i need them to be buildable, but the animation does'nt need to be anything special, the wall coming out of the ground would be enough.

 

[3rgytr54]

well, just edit the bottom one, copy all the info, and paste it in the top one. then hit delete on the bottom one (edit then delete appears)

but those pictures are good and I can mash 'em together for a total o 1 or 2 textures

 

[ThisPOT]

Sweet =)
Please remember to make every model with a 180 degree and 270 degree rotations so i can use them as buildings (not gonna use em as doodads).

And thank you so much for taking the time to do this for me, much appreciated and going towards a sweetness map =P!

 

[3rgytr54]

will do, and here is my fence so far- the texture is chessey I know. It's still being fixed.

EDIT: i always get my mouse in the picture. Every time.

 

[ThisPOT]

Add the barbed wire on top and it will be perfect! i didn't think about adding player color but now that you did it and after thinking about it I think it is a great idea=D
Let me download that fenceness! hehe

Make the top part of the fence metallic color also please =p and for the death animation, could u make it fall over?

 

[3rgytr54]

wait really? that was the texture that auto-appears. If they are meant to be build-able then I'll keep the team color on the tops of the poles only, I'm currently searching for a good *free* texture of the barbed wire to base off of, all I can find is vectors that cost money.

 

[ThisPOT]

AAh I see no problem, i can't really find barbed wire on the internet lol and it's not that important, and the team color on top of poles is a very good idea =)

Think I could have some prototypes by tonight? I test my map daily and it would help a lot =P

 

[3rgytr54]

I have the fence done! It is animated with a simplistic birth/death/portrait/stand and I'm testing it now..... But don't worry about going over 4mb if you plan on protecting/optimizing the map it should be able to trim off enough in case my 16x16 and my 256x256 texture are to large. Will edit with finished fence.

EDIT: taking longer than i thought. animations are not working right.

EDIT2: I'm going to make a thread and try and get this fixed, I want to upload that into the model section afterward hopefully, with your permission.

 

[ThisPOT]

I am very exited =) and I think it's a good idea to release the fence to everyone because from what I have seen while searching for one that that's in high demand and none are available at all. Will you make me the Sand Bags and the Concrete Wall as well =P?
Ty so much again!

 

[3rgytr54]

Yeah, Let me get you a picture of the fence. I made the team color epic.

EDIT: here it is.

 

[ThisPOT]

Looks very nice! When do you think it will be ready for download =D?

 

[3rgytr54]

As soon as possible. In a day or two max. The concrete wall is in progress. I think I can "strip" in team color also.

 

[Jaakko]

Hi. Just wanted to tell I have been looking for these same models for ages. Can you please make another variation of the fence 354? It should be black and I think the ending poles look too thick. Also no team colour needed for this version if it reduces file size.
EDIT: " the ending poles look too thick" or maybe not after all

 

[ThisPOT]

Lol I am pretty new here even tho I have experience with the editor... and didn't even realize there was a second page!
Anyways will the walls be available to download from this post or will it be somewhere else? I wouldn't want to miss it !!
And thanks again so much for taking the time to make these =)

 

[BlueBerryWizard]

I have a very good fence model that windexglow made. You can have it (he doesn't want credit btw for some reason). Just whisper me on b.net if you want to dl my map which has it and many other models you would find useful in it.

 

[3rgytr54]

I won't be able to work this weekend on them, but they are moving along, and I am thinking of a way to trim down the 200k fence texture... sand bag might be huge also. Still, a work in progress

 

[ThisPOT]

If they take more size then expected it's ok =) can't wait to get my hands on them ;P

 

[Jaakko]

If they take more size than expected I will cut it down with image editor lol xD

 

[Deon]

Like this?

[ThisPOT]

That's exactly it lol, except no team colors!
Are those walls avail. for download? and do they have the build / death animation and do u have a version at 270 degrees and one at 180? (need all that for my map)

 

[3rgytr54]

Well, I can't work on anything this weekend, I won't be home. But the wall is like 80% done (10% animations and 10% fine tuning).

EDIT: here is the picture

1-The texture

2-Unfinished side

3-Texture paths

4-*Finished* side

EDIT2: I'm not sure how big is is in game, most likely needs a scale of 2.0+

 

[ThisPOT]

I love how you add the player color!
This is one of the last crucial pieces to finish my map =).
And don't worry bout the size I shall make it fit perfectly.
Is the Chain Link Fence done =D? haven't heard about it for a while hehe

Ty this looks like great material =) can't wait to use it.

 

[Deon]

The fence I've posted is just a model which you can rotate at any angle. I've found it on some site I am trying to find now.

Also are you interested in "beton" walls?

 

[Jaakko]

I would like to try the fence.

 

[ThisPOT]

It looks real nice but the problem with items you can rotate yourself is I can't have a horizontal and a vertical wall as buildings, if it was for a doodad I would care less! =p

Beton = reinforced concrete in french

 

[3rgytr54]

Ok, I'm back and ready to roll. The Concrete Wall needs a better UVW map and it'll be done -the animations which I'll try anyway.

EDIT: I spelled "which" wrong.

 

[ThisPOT]

Man I can not wait!
It's the last piece to my map =D!!!
/drool

 

[3rgytr54]

muhhaha... IT WORKS!!!

just the UVW is half weird... so that will be an easy fix and then i can transfer the animations to the chain fence! and start on the bags.

Jaakko you can use these models also, I know you'll use them right.

 

[ThisPOT]

Howdy just wondering how the walls are doing, keep me updated please =D!

 

[3rgytr54]

Doing great, just having major internet problems and can't upload anything.(posting from another computer) The sand bag wall I'm having trouble modeling to look nice, but I'll texture it up and see what you think.

 

[SILLYbear]

sandbags (not my model)

Here is the sandbags model.

o wow

 

[ThisPOT]

I can't use these sand bags because i need them to be a building that workers will build, so it needs birth / death anim and i need 2 versions, a 270 and a 90 degree rotation variation so the workers can build horizontal and vertical walls =)

 

[3rgytr54]

ok, internet is working and spring break is 2 days away.. got school work to no end.

 

[3rgytr54]

well, now that spring break is almost over I managed to get the other two perfect as of my knowledge... but the birth animations are funny, a quick build time makes it look the best. (4 works good)

 

[ThisPOT]

Sweet =) thats the build time i was gonna use anyways lol

 

[Warhunter]

you know... It already exsist an Barbed Wire. Pyramidhe@d did one for me, he will realease it when my map is, and it's not long to that.
