Recommended doodads for a palace?

[Galatius]

Hi all

I want to create an enterable palace for a playable map and I am tearing my hair out trying to find suitable doodads that I can use to create the palace exterior (i.e. walls, arches, roof, etc.)

The white-ish archway, single column, and double column included with the WE best approximate the aesthetic look that I am aiming for. However, what I really need is a good old fashioned wall consistent with those textures.

I've tried searching for custom models, as well as rotating / pitching some of the default doodads. No joy so far.

Any suggestions?

Since you want to make the inside and this outside, and if its a fantasy world, I would suggest Ogre's models since you have everything you need in his map. You can use them to make your map but remember to put his name in Credits.

Will find a link and Edit the post!

I checked the Hiveworkshop model section for anything created by anyone with a username starting with Ogre, but nothing came up. If you do find a link, I would greatly appreciate it.

Yes, it is a fantasy setting. I'm using some of Tranquil's castle models, so hopefully that gives you an idea of the sort of look and feel I am aiming for. A wall like Tranquil's with a marble texture would be ideal.

Did you mean this one? http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/terrain-board-267/refuge-ruins-163309/

Yes, Its the best!

It's an awesome map, but it doesn't have any walls that are suitable for a palace

 

[marko9]

Oh but it does, you must combine them to make epic things!

Per my OP, I'm looking for a wall with a white-ish marble-like texture. Unless I missed something when checking Ogre's map, every single wall doodad has a dark, brick-like texture.

 

[marko9]

Yup you are right! Can you send me a concept picture so I can see what do you need?

 

[Galatius]

The double column included with WE has the sort of look that I am searching (see attached image). I need a wall with a similar texture and colour.

 

[marko9]

Hmm well if you have Updated Editor you can make the wall out of the column model that is all ready in he game... but I will try to find you something

 

[Galatius]

I don't really want a wall of columns. I would prefer a flatter surface that looks like it was made out of marble blocks.

I know there is a small wall in WE that looks like the block at the top of the columns in the image that I attached, but it doesn't scale well. If I try increasing the size, the texture starts to disorientate and become blurry. And keeping it a small size is prohibitive since I would need to use hundreds of them to build a decent set of walls.

By the way, I really appreciate your willingness to help me with this - sorry if I sound like a whining kid who wants his cake and eat it (which, basically, I do!)

Thank you so much! Most of those are exactly what I am looking for. I seriously don't know how I overlooked them when I originally checked the resource section.

If you want to find something, don't use the hiveworkshop search engine. you will have better results with

google ---> site:hiveworkshop.com YourText


edit: in the UTM are also some white marble doodads which you don't find on the hiveworkshop link
