Knowledge Novice Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 What a great idea. This could lead to new missions, or maybe even a buyable asset. I bet this would be a good place practice blowin' up some copters since you wouldn't have to worry 'bout bein' surrounded the the cops. Keep it up man.

Gunzen-R Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 This is cool. I think it's can be a Good Map for MTA or VC-MP. Or MTA SA, SA-MP, if you convert it for SA.

GTA_Hacker Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 very nice i like it very much but i think yu should make the texture a bit more darker, and place rust all over the place. like making it abandoned. and also some gta objects like barrels would be nice keep it up Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/266351-wip-vc-oil-rig/#findComment-4035949 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallo Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 are u going to add a boat ramp down the bottom in the middle and a stairwell? so we can get there by seaplane or boat?

raresh_r Posted February 1, 2007 Author Share Posted February 1, 2007 i was thinking to put barrels , after i finish it. but he rust, i don't think i'll put some, it is not abandoned .but the boat ramp i don't know. in reality you don't get to a oilrig from water. i'll make an other one, diferent from this one with more parts. can someone give me a better texture for the big polls that is sitting on ?( i don't like the white, i need something made from iron, with rust. how many triangles does the model need to have ? (i always make them 1000 like the col files) Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/266351-wip-vc-oil-rig/#findComment-4036369 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDude5000 Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Nice. Love stuff out at sea, you should try converting this to SA as well. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/266351-wip-vc-oil-rig/#findComment-4036390 Share on other sites More sharing options...
raresh_r Posted February 1, 2007 Author Share Posted February 1, 2007 I've add a small boat ramp, more interior and some more pipes . here is a screenshot of the boat ramp, that is connected to the interior of the pole. looks ugly Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/266351-wip-vc-oil-rig/#findComment-4036821 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knowledge Novice Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 I've add a small boat ramp, more interior and some more pipes . here is a screenshot of the boat ramp, that is connected to the interior of the pole. looks ugly You've got a great thing goin' here. Personally I think the ramp looks good. Just a thought; if you don't like the look of an added walk-way you could just put the model of an elevator or lift by the platform at the bottom and another on the upper deck of the rig and use an scm mod to move the player from one to the other. I know you may want to make this model whole and usable without the use of additional mods, but I just thought I'd mention it in case you may prefer it over the walk-way. Just throwin' out an idea, but what you have looks great. I'll definately be downloading it when it's released. Later man.

Smallo Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 (edited) looking good. i like the boat ramp but i agree with Knowledge Novice but since this is a map mod i dont think he'll be wanting to scm for it. edit: hmm just realised that the stairwell was inside the pole oops thought it was out.

Freakorama Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Sweet oil rig there, i loved the old rig level in Thps3 and thaw so this gta Vc one will also be cool, how about you make the oil tower more like this insted of solid concrete eh?

raresh_r Posted February 2, 2007 Author Share Posted February 2, 2007 I'll put just a helicopter on the top, but the elevator no, because the stairwell isn't going in the top of the oilrig, it goes inside , from there you have to walk through the corridors . @Futurama_Freak1: i've madded something like that last night, i was thinking about that i don't know if you understand something from this photo Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/266351-wip-vc-oil-rig/#findComment-4037350 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AK-73 Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Pretty good idea and fits with the location. Awesome job there! If the model had some vertex lighting it would look even better.

JostVice Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Pretty good idea and fits with the location. Awesome job there! If the model had some vertex lighting it would look even better. Alex Agree @raresh: IMO the blend between 'the big polls that is sitting on' and the platform isn't very real. you should have more cranes and stuff, about the polycount, it doesnt matter, try to get the lowest one without fakin the model, you know aren't you getting invisible walls?

raresh_r Posted February 2, 2007 Author Share Posted February 2, 2007 i have invisible walls only at the big crane (i don't matter that). i'll add cranes and stuff after i finish it (there are some in the docks i'll use them) there are different tripes of oilrigs i don't understand the polycount and can someone give me a tutorial about vertex lighting. i don't know how to do that Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/266351-wip-vc-oil-rig/#findComment-4037668 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDude5000 Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Really looking good. I like this "out at sea" sorta thing, a very fresh mod(unlike all the TC crap floating around).

TheDude5000 Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 (edited) Well I think I can make a good .col file for it, of course I'd need you to send me the models. EDIT: Well I guess my .col scripts are screwed up if it wasn't solid. Someone else is gonna have to help you, but I'm still looking forward to the mod.

Felics Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 To fix the col file load the model in 3ds max, use the "Optimize" modificator, set BIAS to 0,9, then export this file as .3ds and import it in ColEditor...

TheDude5000 Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Ok I think I fixed my .col problem. I found a way to align them properly.

l3mmy Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Sketchups Col errors are quiite easy to fix, just export a blank model wit no textures, delete any lines that hold textures(that arent needed with out) and use that as the .col, and u can use high poly for .dff Works for me Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/266351-wip-vc-oil-rig/#findComment-4080223 Share on other sites More sharing options...
