i have a question, so whats up with the ligthing? how do i make all those road lamps invisible?

 

Hi, if you want to hide road lamps, type RoadLamp1d in search field select all and disable them, to hide all lamps and light sources disable NightLightsExterior game object from Hierarchy.
To hide light sources from lamps in Night scene, find RoadLamp1aNight prefab and disable Spotlight

 

Coming soon new version with ABANDONED SCENE
What do you think about it?

 

Hi! Do you have any playble demo ? Is it mobile friendly ? Thank you!

 

Hi, yes you can try this Windows DEMO but sorry it isn't mobile friendly

 

Hi, I am on the verge of purchasing this asset, but I understand it is not modular. That is acceptable to a point. For example, is possible to detach the gym completely from the rest of the building, or any other room for that matter? If not, do you have plans to release a modular version? I appreciate your advice and look forward to hearing from you!

 

Hi, yes it's not modular for some reasons as lighmaps, performance. But it consist of 4 separate parts: gym, 1 floor,2 floor, assembly hall and kitchen (look at attached image). In plans make it mobile friendly, but we will think about make it modular

 

@lenarskiy I went ahead and purchased your asset, and thank you for your earlier advice. After taking some time to explore the asset in more detail, it definitely has some praiseworthy qualities, however, there a number of issues that I'd like to address. [NOTE: I am primarily interested in the gym section, so I have examined these assets more carefully].

The art assets (e.g. materials, textures) do not follow PBR texturing guidelines:

1. Many metal assets have material properties with no metallic value
2. Some materials are not normal mapped
3. None of the materials contain noise maps or AO maps, e.g. fingerprints, dust, scratches, smudges, etc.
4. Many of the metal materials are actually painted metal surfaces, but do not have textures to reflect that composition
5. The tiling of textures on the gym walls and floor cannot be modified., e.g. one cannot create smaller / wider planks, and the colors of the walls cannot be changed independently.
6. Gym windows are composed of 'Reshetkas' and 'Windows', but these could be collapsed into a single mesh
7. There is noticeable aliasing on the curves of the basketball court lines and markings; it would be nice to have a higher resolution image (2k) for this important piece of geometry

Do you have any plans to update the materials in this project to respect PBR shading and texturing?

 

@buttmatrix First thanks for purchasing our asset
1....4 There is no "PBR materials" in asset description, but a lot of materials have specular map, in plans to make as more PBR materials as possible.
5. Email us about your needs in tiling gym, we will change it for you free of charge
6. We tried to make all objects which have different surface type as separate game object, so it can be used in FPS style game to draw decals and special effects on metal, glass, wood and etc. surfaces.
7. Email us to get 2k texture, we will add it to next update

 

That is a tremendous offer @lenarskiy! Thank you so much for your consideration.

 

Hey guys I have a question, this package looks great but I'm a bit worried about the missing PBR materials. Will it stick out when mixed with our games other PBR assets? We aim at a as realistic look as possible, here is an example from one of our current levels

edit: Please skip to about 1:50

 

Hi, Great work!
Currently all material use Standart/Standart(Specular) shader, so i think it won't be a problem mixing it with your assets. We are working on new PBR materials and LODs for all models, it will take a lot of time, so we will produce updates as soon as we finish some part of models

 

Thanks for quick reply, looking forward to those updates.

I wonder if a heightmap would help make all that peeling paint visually pop?

 

@hopeful Do you mean add heightmap texture to all models ?

 

Substances would be nice. IIRC, @NOT_Lonely has a WIP that is using similar types of assets / materials.

 

@buttmatrix we made PBR materials and LOD groups for gym objects, and made separate gym asset http://u3d.as/J8r, and sure we used Substance for texturing. Next step - update School Scene with this new materials

 

I was just thinking the peeling paint could use some help to pop a bit more, cast shadows. Not sure what would be the best solution.

I didn't buy the kit, so I don't know for sure, but it seemed in the promotional materials that the peeling paint was more of a flat texture.

 

@hopeful Adding heightmap texture to peeling paint will give a good effect, but it's performance-expensive
You can try DEMO

 

It's performance expensive, but for mobile a dev can turn it off, and on desktop it would be controlled by LOD levels and OC.

 

@lenarskiy That's excellent news. For those of us that purchased the School Scene project, would you be willing to make the gym asset available to us? The gym is really my primary interest and I'd love to update the visuals for my project with the latest work yall have committed.

 

@buttmatrix hope soon

 

Thank you so much!

EDIT: The PBR looks incredible, really a step forward from the first generation!

 

I understand the gym room got a PBR update in its separate pack. Has this pack gone all PBR yet?

 

The experience that we got on remaking models and their PBR texturing for the gym showed us that the time that will take to rework all the models for this pack is much more than we expected and it will take 2 times longer than it took to create the current version of the asset, so the work is stopped until we accept the solution. Hope for you understanding.
We took into account our mistakes and now we are doing all our new assets with PBR materials.
