Swamped

Author: __ CptnNsan0
Base:___...BeaverCreek

This is my current project im working on. I wanted to get a swampy/overgrown with trees kind of feel.

I still have a lot to do but im open to ideas. all i have right now is adding the skittery bugs, getting the trees to have collision, and finishing the skin. im thinking about a bipd swap and wastingbody, with your permission i would like to use the one from your beavercreek . Only if thats cool with you though.

Looks pretty cool, not really swampy, but cool.

im working on the swamp feel

looks kool but the perfect swamp feel would be to get a layer of fog ad put it just above the ground so its like walking through mist.

I've tried that over nd over in my last mod (graveyard) and couldnt get it to work. i might try again though.

The swamp feel is successful...However things like the cubemap for the water and changing the stem of the ground shader is a must (the stem is making the ground look blurred...Foundations ground texture does that too)

can you help me with that. i had no idea that what the stem ever did

i know you need to change the cubemap of the water to give it the swamp look but im not sure how to do that either.

That would be cool, like the BC from Halo 1 where it was in the bottom of the bases. That would look cool, I think. So far it doesn't look too bad.

That is just a shader so you can't raise it. Good job on the mod looks pretty good right now hopefully it will get better.

The [stem] is in a [shad]...So find the ground texture [shad] and see what [stem] it has...I'm only saying this because your ground texture looks blurred...It may just infact be the texture but if the [stem] is something along the lines of mentioning blur then you should change it...

Yea, raise the water level, and change the water color to greenish. More shrubs and bushes would make it have a more "Swamp" feal. As well as the fog that hovers just above the water.

Have the oracle fly around the level like in 343 guilty spark .

Also Hadriel you cant raise the water as it is part of the bsp. It is just a shader used for it.

Yes you can as long as you were to put it in Gemini or a bigger map.

it looks like a good place to set some tombstones!!! >_>

CptnNsan0 · Post by **CptnNsan0** » Sun Oct 15, 2006 5:09 pm

tombstones didnt work in my last graveyard because i couldnt inject anything else but if i injected them in here i dont think it would fit....maybe another mod.
