Battle arena with interior and roof. Probably going to remove the grass.

Looking good Rep'! Keep up the good work!

WOW! That looks very nice, especially the roof! I'm not sure what kind of terrain you want the arena to be, but I personally like the grass. Now just vary the terrain up a tad and it'll look great!

Oh, and I just had an idea, what if there could be controls in the stands to control terrain looking objects to make them move up and down? Then you could make a King of the Hill type arena and then just as easily vary it downwards to make a sunken pit!

yeah, kinda like the Roman Colosseum where they would mix up what the arena floor looked like/had on it...that would be really cool if it were done. I also like the grass, it just needs a few objects for cover (ruined structures sticking out of the ground like on Yavin work well)

WOW!

Those models are so amazing!

Fragme! I gotta say that I can't wait to drive a car down one of those ramps.

(and no, I don't mean the "hampster tubes". although hey that might be funny too... )

Hey nobody's fighting today


I gotta go get some nachos

Excellent, Rep! Your buildings are huge, now that I can see them in scale with mine. I don't know how you managed to fill up so much space.

I didn't Mostly made them huge just to fill up space. There's only a few floors in my building. Well the jedi temple has 6 floors (3 battle arenas, 1 with battle simulator, 1 apartment, 1 lobby, 1 jedi master penthouse suite). But a lot of it is empty space inside. I'm having a lot of trouble with texture and collision glitches, which is delaying my filling up of space. But thanks! I'll try just to get working models out.

City's looking awesome, Rep'! Great job everyone.

This is pretty much the best map ever made!

Rep, did you consider making your own skydome .msh? I think you're using one of the stock ones now, and that'll give you that mirroring-the-texture below the Z-plane. If you made your own you could give the bottom half of your skydome a water texture that would blend fairly seamlessly into water at the edges of your map. (Or a grass texture that blended into the grass at the end, etc.) Just something I noticed that may pop up when flyers get involved.

I really like the way the skydome looks now; this might just help it out a little.

I tried, all I got was a 90 degree rotated skydome with no texture, and the one I have now seemed to work so I didn't bother too much. There was obviously something more to than just exporting a dome in xsi. (Unless I was just being stupid or something I think I forgot to freeze transforms... but still no texture)

This is looking awesome! I'm gona retry exporting my donut shop now.

Rep, Arena is lookin' good!

FragMe, those tubes...I look forward to roaming in them...!

I've done my house!
Piccies!

Hmmm looks good, from what I can see of it.

It would be easier to see if you turned the view mode to Textured Decal, and turned on the headlight.


Then click the eye button.


And un-check texture Controls, to hide all those annoying green projection outlines.

I couldn't resist posting this much longer; I've been working on this for days now.



I realize that this is most likely not the most efficient way to render an object, but hey, it works. (the grass and sky are objects...)

For reference, the white selected object is a clone trooper. See him waaaay down at the bottom?

Edit: The top level, without the landing pad:

Wow, that model must be HUGE!!

Looks amazing though, great job

Hehe, yeah, it is quite tall. Over 250 meters, if I remember correctly from when I started it.
