[SA] Myriad Islands

[[email protected]]

 

[email protected] before i start love the building and the effort that has been put into it but i have a few questions and maybe tips:-

 

1. why thirty rooms, do we need that many?

    If you just made the corridor imagine how many polys would be lost.

 

2. the doors in your screenshot look like they have just been placed in with sketchup (imo) if that is so dont they average somethin like 150 faces alone.

  If this is so draw them manually against a corridor wall will drop by about a hundred

 

3. if you are making a reception or foyer and a swimming pool then we definately dont need all those rooms just 1 on each floor would do.

 

4. and finally is there no chance of seeing your whole model in a wireframe shot pllllleeeeeeeaaaasssseeee

I didn't knew it was going to take up THAT much poly, I didn't care. 30 rooms sounded like fun, but I forgot to think about the polycount, I made a major mistake. But then I accidentically clicked the properties button and it showed me up that I used more than 10k polys. At that moment I realised how much f*cked up polys the hotel had and how much I wasted. But it was too late, I can't stop and trow it away in the recycle bin, it would be a huge waste of time. I've worked three months on it, so you don't expect that from me. Honestly, what do you want? Should I trow it away or keep working on it? Bear in mind the interior objects are seperate and have LODs.

 

And I've posted a wireframe pic not that long ago, you must have missed it.

As far I know, you can't. Actually you can, but you'll have to uninstall the lots, it's most likely that these are so called "high poly" areas, they may cause the game to crash and lag it.

Oh, yes, I know this game engine truoble. So let's wait SA

[GT-1]

Check the first page it has some info on teh VC Limit adjustor which may help with your crashing problems.

[Gforce]

also the police station release has 2 extra lodcols that conflict with the park

Needs a very big bridge somewhere, whats all i would say. Ideally on Black Mesa. After all what would be cooler than having to escape the cops on a narrow railway brdige with oncoming trains and a way to fall a very long way off

[mult]

I think myriad's train should be like San Andreas' Brown Streak. Imagine a mission where you had to hop over carriages to kill somebody. O_O

Suddenly, heart stops beating...

That's some hot stuff(what is it?).

[GT-1]

You shoulda got a picture in the day instead or brightening this one up it would have made the lot look much nicer. Looks kinda larger and the texture looks odd and stretched on the citcular parts other than that coming along nicely SR good work.

[GT-1]

I made this gallery quiet a while back but you can have a look at it in slideshow form now....

Myriad Slideshow

You can set it to run a continuous loop and set the timer to a faster or slower speed its up to you, enjoy!

 

EDIT, maybe something similar could be used on the Myriad website?

Im a bit late coming into this topic, but Necrosis island already has a train statin towards the front complete with tracks.

These of corse were supposed to be unused and only for effect.

But i can easly change the tracks and the train station to function and add a shinny new statin towards the center of the island.

 

I will draw up a map of available locations relative to MI main island and Necrosis as soon as i get home.

 

Thanks,

-Dave

[REspawn]

he he i think its funny where the cars are driving everywere in the screenshots

 

 

(and yes I do know it's because the paths are not finished)

All the car paths are fine!?

They need a small fix in some places, but none of them have been in the screens.

The only thing left with the paths is the ped paths.

 

Thanks for all the praise guys, hope your sleeping better -GRAVITY2-

 

As for work on the island itself, been sh*t busy with college stuff at the moment, hopefully get some more work done soon.

-Dave

[Black-hawk]

Done:

Model: Finished

Polygons: 638

 

No all I need is to find some good gta style window textures. And a free lot.

 

 

 

 

Crap, eh?

[Monitor57]

Nice one BH
