The island of dimensions [WIP]

Hi,

I just started my personal project of the name as in the thread title. It is hard to me explaint what it is going to be - maybe some kind of joint between edu soft, estetic experiance, sciense disertation (about dimension theory - mainly mine, but inspired by 'Imagining the Tenth Dimension', a book by Rob Bryanton). More info soon with progress.

Here are some screenshots that gives an idea of visual side of 'the project'.



















I have used free model and textures.

 

Wow, looks awsome.
Vere did you find all those great looking models?

 

Hi,

Thanks!

I cannot say, whre is it from, it is just on my hard drive with brief note - I was 3D Artist in game art before so, I collected few GB of 3D resources, and not all objects etc are 3rd person stuff. If you like the visual look, I quess it is mainly thanks to the Linear color space, and Beast in wchich are baked lightmaps. Before I was baking textures in 3ds max and vray - in that way, you way achive very nice resoults, up to full photorealism, but you need unique uv maps and textures fore every object. This is very build size eating.

I hope to show Unity WebPlayer soon.

Of course, wont matter how good the models are, the most important thing are how they are presented in the level, and it looks like you have made a great job with that : )

 

Wow, those are amazing scenes, you should really make this into something cool

 

Looks really good.

 

Looks great. I did notice that the ground textures seem a little low res though.

 

Beautiful scenes, I'm looking forward to where this will go, and your description is very compelling in a sort of vague unimaginable way.

 

Virror: Thanks!

TehWut: I'll do my best! Thanks!

Torsh: Thanks!

brilliantgamestudios: Yes, many textures need to be replaced with those with higher resolution - specialy ground. Thanks!

Jcoaster2008: Thanks! I just need to use skill given me by God to good use.

Here is Unit Webplayer build - the problem is that it is placed on my personal free web server, that limits the one file size to 6mb (WebPlayer file has 25mb - yes, not optimized), so it is very likely you will get unity3d error: "Bad file length", for web server sometimes cancels the download. Anyway sometimes it doesnt

[EDIT]

I forgot to say, that that build has actually nothing of code and colliders etc - it has even my 'test of realistic FPP camera shake' . So don't worry if you managed to fall down or pass through buildings.

 

many use dropbox to put webplayer. I use it myself and you see it in my sig. I think you get 4gb when you start and then more. I have 9gb now. Works really good

 

error failed to download data or something like that... a standalone version its better

 

This map comes from the game "Sea Dogs 2", so i wouldn't use it if i were you, because some people will recognize it and non-original things make people not want to play a game. Still, i hope you keep working on this.

 

Models are not free, it's Age of Pirates:Caribbean Tales (Another name for Sea Dogs 2 maybe?)

Age of Pirates: Caribbean Tales

If you like that style, you might want to look at this set (there are actually 3 different sets), it's a good value for that kind of style.

pixellegolas: Yes, I even have account - I should use it.

impheris: As above.

Mr.M1k4, Jaimi: Thanks for the info! I didn't know where is it from - anyway my project is NON-commercial - I hope it won't couse problems - if it does, back to modeling (whcih I don't like anymore )
