New enviroment

[Andress]

someone want help me to make a new enviroment for AE/AO?

[Slog Bait]

Can you give us more details? What exactly do you want to do?

[Andress]

i want to make a new complety enviroment for AE/AO games. i want that anynone contribute to it creating backgrounds, grids. floor, walls, posters, etc. somethint that this: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/35561843/MI1%20Mapset.jpg but more big

[Slog Bait]

In that case, sure. My laptop isn't powerful enough to do any modelling of any kind, though, so if 3D modelling is an absolute necessity I'm no help.

[Andress]

this all was made with photoshop, i think thath your laptop is succesfull to run photoshoop

[Slog Bait]

Yes, it can run Photoshop just fine, as well as any other image editing program.

[Andress]

then you can help because all that was made with it, i make similars things only with photoshop and not is difficult, are circles and squares but the author plays with light and shadow giving the 3D effect

[Slog Bait]

Well, just let me know what I can do, I guess.

[Andress]

you can make some posters or some backgrounds to the enviroment, you let your imagination.surprise me!

[Slog Bait]

I'd love to, but I need to know what direction you want to take this. All I've got right now is that you want an indoor scene I think?? If you want to lead a project, you need to give the people interested instruction on what to do. What do you have in mind, and where do you want to go with this project? Do you even have a general concept for what the final product may potentially be?

[Andress]

my final idea is a big level for AE in new enviroment but
we must planning people work. for example you can take care of psoters , another of the walls and floor, placing other objects in the game, the problem is thath i dont know the number of people that want to participate , because this if this level is developement only with you and me this take much time. then first place we know the number of pepole that want to help, an then assign a job.

Alright, in that case shoot me a PM when you know how many people are going to be working on this. I have no problem if us two are the only people to work on it in the end, I've got all the time in the world. Might as well put it towards something fun.

[Andress]

i think that you and me going to be the only people that work in this, xP, you make some levels thath these with photoshop, i want to say, you are good with phtoshop?

[Slog Bait]

I am, yes. Also, give it some time. Not that many people have seen this thread yet.

[Andress]

ok wait then, the time will say all, see ya!

[Slog Bait]

Casually bumps.

No one else on board, I take it?

[Andress]

I still thinking figuring out how to do this in 3D is the best option, if someone who knows 3D modelling could show how to get the perspectives correct it would be fairly easy. You could use blender and then task people will creating boom machines, platform types, etc.

Then you could just compose them all together in blender (or render them out and use photoshop/gimp).

Edit: And also this is pretty much how the originals where done - but blender running on an old laptop is still more powerful than the best machines they had back in 1994-1997.

Edit2: Also the rupture farms do it yourself scene has tons of textures and models that could be used.
