I extracted some vertical tubes of glass from the illithid tileset. Those would likely be closer to the original glass tubing.

[PJ156]

I did not see those. I will have a poke round tonight.

 

Thanks Kamal_

They come in empty and brain filled, should be under the tag plc_ih as I tagged things by tileset, they are part of the tileset construction kit.

 

In the middle you can see the tubes, they come in standalone and attached to piping:

More alien looking areas like Planar Sphere.. Urst Natha and of course the saughin city are gonna be the most... "interesting" areas to see done in NWN2.

 

Is this your standard way of making areas PJ156? Sorta plot it out with standard objects getting the scaling right then go crazy with the custom content?

[PJ156]

Thanks Kamal

 

Yes ArtemisJ, that's pretty much it. Mostly we are only getting the feel of the area. It's going to be recognizable but rarely a carbon copy. Lighting and textures provide most of the work.

 

In some cases the area has to change shape, either to suit the very rigid tile sizes or to take into account that a party of 5 may need to land there without becoming a part of the furniture and crashing the game.

 

Sahuagin city is done ..... that took a loooong time. I dread Ust Nartha but it will happen. The planar sphere is now.

 

Most important to note is there are two others in the background helping me. RJS and 4760 have provided cc of excellent quality and RJS more than 50 custom tiles and a couple of jaw dropping meta tiles. Both of which I'm not showing anyone so there!

I thought I might have this area in the bag with this being a holiday weekend in the UK ... Not to be it seems, my children decided to prioritize for me and crab netting on Poole Quay won.

 

None the less there has been some progress, there might have been more but I have recently rediscovered Lord of the Realm 2. Ye gods can that game suck time if you let it.

 

 

I need the floor next and then I will texture the stairs and other main items. Perhaps next week who knows. Complex areas like this slow progress dramatically. Unfortunately there are a lot of areas like this in BG2.

Adding Glow maps to the gnomish machine. very sneaky!! 

 

Looks great! I can't wait to see it with proper lighting.

[PJ156]

Thanks AJ, that's Kamal's reworking of the original model. I have to remove those chimneys I think but it works well.

 

I think area is going to need some dark lighting

Now that I am officially helping out.. I want to post screenshots too..

But I think I might feel a little inferior next to you and drechner..

Suldanessalar or whatever the elven city is call.

[ArtemisJ]

Suldanessalar or whatever the elven city is call.

 

Could be Suldanessellar or Ust Natha.. I am leaning towwards Suldanessellar as well.

[PJ156]

I clearly need to do more work then

 

PJ

[Arkalezth]

My first thought was Suldanessellar as well, but it looks more like the Planar Sphere's map:

It's actually a perfect representation.. the problem is with all the grass.. your mind immediately wanders to something else..

I think it looks great.

 

Are you gonna paint the terrain black when you are done ?

[PJ156]

Indeed I am, and with a black skydome it will look a little like this:

I wonder if I can toast a hot dog in that warp core?

Is that a Star Drek reference?

It would appear that Lieutenant Snott is about to eat a wiener without mustard.

[Sabranic]

This is great.  Everything on this page brought a huge smile to my face.

[Shallina]

I finished first pass scripting on Brinlaw+ spellhold+ city of cavern.

 

I am currentkly scripting the castle stronghold, and Nalia, scripting Nalia is really difficult and take a lot of time.

As ever, lighting and sound will make this area but, for the post part, this is all about textures. It's going to take a loooong time 

 

 

RJS did the cc for the windows and doors, also the hoop floor. Walls are re-textured stock city wall sections and the passage ways were extracted from the purgatorio tile set by Kamal_ Textures are mine except for the window frames. Those need to be doen along with the outer door frames.

 

4760 has offered some very cool cc for this area which I will show off once it's in the tools/game

 

The pace should pick up a little now these rooms are done .... but not much.

[rjshae]

It's coming along very nicely, PJ. Your texturing work really sells it.

I feel bad that the druid room isn't nearly as cool as this area..

I think Druid players are gonna feel short changed compared to mages..

 

 

Well.. That's pretty accurate with BG2.. sooo
