Post by: Zoythrus on 13 August 2010, 07:03:29
hey, i need a tileset for this mod i'm making, anyone interested?

(i'd do it myself, but i have no skill in that field)

if you want to do it, i'll give you the specs that it needs.

ok, i need an alien jungle/desert world with large obsidian rocks. mostly desert (but not the desert tileset, i dont like that one). the trees should look jungle-y, (like, big and tropical looking).

i know it sounds odd, but can it be done?

There is a jungle tileset already, so maybe all that needs to be done is the large obsidian rocks?

yeah, but it isnt desert-y...it needs to all flow (not just some patchwork quilt).

Dude, why not just mix the Desert and Jungle tilesets yourself to your liking, and add an obsidian rock. You know how to model, I presume, and if you can do XMLs, you can easily combine the tilesets.

Asking others to do things for you... just ends up messy (and taking forever).

i have no modeling talent (and yes, ive tried to learn how, but i suck nonetheless). i thought that someone else would know how to make it look good, cuz i cant.

Oh yeah thats the spirit ::) ::), how are you ever gonna learn to model if thats your attitude, If you can texture I can make the models but my texturings awful :O :O so I won't texture unless I learn how to though I almost have the ww1 models textured.

Zoythrus , I think you can do this yourself and here's how.

Use a couple different jungle trees from the jungle tileset, add one tree from Swamp and a couple palm tree from Mediterranean. the golden colored papyrus from desert tileset makes for a nice bush and good dead trees can be found by mixing one each from evergreen, volcanic and Mediterranean. Scrub land tileset has good dried mud polygons and burnt ground textures and meadow tileset has a nice brown grass texture. 

Use the small stone and large mossy rock from Mediterranean and change the color values on both of them until they are dark black, volcanic also has interesting rock models and those may work as well. One idea would be to replace the textures with a red chirt stone look. http://www.backroombeads.com/stone.html

Post the modified rock and stone textures on the forum and maybe someone can help clean them up. Obsidian will be kinda of tricky as its a shiny rock with glass-like surfaces - so you may be a bit disappointed with the end result.

Sorry everyone, this has been a misunderstanding. I told Zoy that I was going to make a titleset for our mod after I was done, he must of misread that...... So yeah, I plan on making this tiltleset....

And btw. I want whole new models and textures for this, because I want it to look like an alien planet.

yeah, it was all a misunderstanding. sorry people, but before i lock this thread, ill make a statement.

if there are any good tileset makers out there, Hands here could probably use some models and some tips on making a good tileset. it would speed things up a bit. thanks!
