Saintopia, a map I wished I could make.

Ok sweet, im having second thoughts about this "boathog" (which i havnt done yet), as it wont really fit with this ancient thing.. Perhaps a big wooden boat would be more appropriate?

I have that kinda thing in mind, but looking older and having wood and no paint.

Any suggestions?

yes that would be very cool if you could model it lol.Tehn you could have like boat fight with like 5 people on the boat that would be fun.

Yeah like I'm not I have to do custom fp animations and go through tool.exe.

Then I'll model the boat.

well I was bored and tired of trying to get the sword ingame(not saying that I give up) I started the terrain since snaf is busy

I just was trying to make modeling the boat easy for us, but that would be hella sweet, I would work on the boat, but right now im making skins, so the weapons have a more jungle feel to them, and the guy, interesting way of making the map, if you could vary the levels (hieghts) of the map that would be much cooler, I know its a first model and all, but I just wanted to say that.

That's not the real texture I just used that as reference.

Pie · Post by **Pie** » Wed Mar 30, 2005 1:02 pm

try some untextured renders, because seeing it with that textures gives some pieces an illusion of being flat or slanted. So you have to look hard at some places to see what it relaly looks like.

Maps coming on well

Alsp you got a side pic of that boat? Cuz I wanna "try" to make it

BoxBoy · Post by **BoxBoy** » Wed Mar 30, 2005 2:43 pm

I talked with snaf a lil bit, here is what i came up with, it is a crappy topograph map, and there is a little pic of the water fall:

and I am working on the scimitar reticle right now.

theguy2042000 · Post by **theguy2042000** » Wed Mar 30, 2005 2:48 pm

well I don't know how to get the recticle ingame but i'm gonna find out.
And did you say waterfall? cause thats gonna be cool.

BoxBoy · Post by **BoxBoy** » Wed Mar 30, 2005 3:01 pm

Well I know the reticle would be a bitmap somewhere, I don't know how you got the reticle for the halo 2 sword up, but I would have to say something to do with the bitmaps for the sword... don't know but im finishing up right now.

k here are reticles.

Sonictag · Post by **Sonictag** » Thu Mar 31, 2005 1:55 am

Dont diss the topograph, they are pretty needed for making a map the way snaf might want to do it.

The reticals are cool, nice work on them.

theguy2042000 · Post by **theguy2042000** » Thu Mar 31, 2005 9:59 am

yeah well it's not gonna be simple I've heard that you have to do it by hex editing like you know fonts are made by little black dots in a grid well you have to edit this with a hex editor from what I've heard.

BoxBoy · Post by **BoxBoy** » Thu Mar 31, 2005 11:55 am

gah, sounds not fun... if any one knows how to put in reticles, that would be kindly assepted

? Alright, well ill try to see if snaf can work off of the topograph map.
