[WIP] Terrain "X-Cam-Taunus"

Recommended Posts

hello team,

 

first of all i have to say its a outstanding work.

 

i m relatively new to terrain building &CO, so one question:

how did u manage the lighting "downgrade" of the 1.60 update?

i didnt read in this thread how u guys fixed the problem, or if not what are your opinions how to fix it.

 

thank u for that lovely map

 

The honor goes to...Memphis Belle and the help of some other great community members...aaaand a f*cking bunch of trial and error...

Maybe we will have a look at the documentation but for the moment we are satisfied with the look and feel we have found.

 

 

Regards

Thanks for the Credits, Chaser. But thats not the whole thing.
 
Credits also goes to t-800a and his awesome visualisation tool based on a Excel sheet. He has spend dozens of hours to figure out the Magic of Visual Basic and created a tool where one can play around with the different values before one is about to edit the actual config.
But to be clear, the whole Team is OK with the result but not fully satisfied. We decided to finish Taunus to become it available for the Community, but the new Lighting Engine has still its traces here and there which still bothers us as before.

In the meanwhile I like the new lighting, but only at midday :)
But at early morning, for example, it looks horrible :o ... that's my opinion.

Wow, that Sports Center looks amazing! It's almost a shame to imagine tank shells blowing up all this amazing scenery.

The Lighting in my opinion was an improvement, what now needs work is the shade aspects of the new lighting as there is virtually no shade behind buildings. I like how bright the game is now though, and the extra fps the new lighting brings is nice.

Please stick to english language in this Forums,

 

at first, you dont know the map yet :D. All that you know are images ;).

We are not providing any sort of information according to a release. It´s a Team decission to keep the map unpublished

until we have finished the work. We are not about to release a Prealpha-, Alpha- or Betaversion. Once the map is finished and 

a release is close so we´ll inform the Community about this. All that I can tell you now is that most parts of the map have already been

finished. Once we´re done with placing Objects, we possibly might have to do some adjustments here and there. So we cant really tell you

how long this process will still take. The actual part that we are working on is a huge town and its surrounding environments, that will still take some time.

 

You guys are doing some stellar work! Who are doing all the new buildings? They look really professional made..

 

Believe it or not, but besides an experienced Addon builder we have on Board, one Person in the Team had absolutely nothings to do with building Addons...untill now.

He more or less figured his new Talent just recently so to speak, and believe me when I say that this was a huge hidden Talent that he has. I wont say now who has created those Addons, as he will

come out with his work once he feels to do so.

I've been following this project for a while now and I cannot wait to get a chance to have a look around this beautiful terrain. I know the new lighting changed the feel of the environment somewhat, but looking at the latest screens I forget about all that and just think what a great job you guys have done, and it still looks amazing.
