models for a ruins-track

[rubberduck]

i modelled some (broken) pillars for a ruins-track

i have them in the object-collection

i don't want to make a full ruin-track now, but i want to do some models and add them to my object-collection

You should have a go at refining the kart models. For instance Mozilla needs a fresh look.

i know, that some karts need improvements, but i want to make some models and i want to work on the object-collection

One small comment. Normally these kinds of pillars do not break leaving a jagged edge. Th break can be diagonal, but they are generally smooth.

[rubberduck]

i will change that

and i have some more ideas for a ruin-track:

-some small stones should be on the road, like in the valley-track
-torches lighting the track

Rubberduck, i think you work on the object-collection ?

And, there are also SuperTuxMarket who was interesting project.

[rubberduck]

this is for the object-collection and can be used later for other tracks, i don't make a track, only some models for my ruin-track-idea

it's the same with the bottles

i don't have the time for making a track and i don't want to make a track now, but i wanted to add some self-made models to it

i like the idea of a ruin-track and if someone has time to make a track, you can use them for this

and they could also be useful for other tracks

Yes but some current tracks need improvments imho (i'm thinking of amazonian track for example)
I already find a music for you ruin track, a new one for your cave track. I'm currently looking for new sound effects and new musics (one music per track)

[betharatux1]

nice, this is also can increase number of variation historical theme track

[rubberduck]

i have now some more parts and the pillars are improved

the dark-ground-areas are for objects, that aren't ready, some of these parts need improvement, others need to be textured and they aren't in object-list-file

maybe you could get more ruins in the 0ad project?
http://play0ad.com/

The game is under gpl so I think it all right about the licence

[rubberduck]

i havn't found nothing, where i can get some models here, i will look for it

do you know, where the models are placed??

[tavariz91]

download the data archive here: http://play0ad.com/download/source/
then extract it, go into 0ad-0.0.13-alpha/binaries/data/mods/public and extract the zip file
then in the extracted archive go to /art/meshes/ and you will find dozens of models.
they all are in the pmd format; I don't know how to open them but I think you can find something (a script?) on the 0ad forum or maybe here: http://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/ArtDesignDocument

I have not really read it since it's too late for me and 3d edition is unknown by me, but you will find what you need:

Useful 0 A.D. Blender links

​pmd2collada - Converter by Matt Minton - Use to convert Pyrogenesis PMD format 3D models to the Blender compatible DAE Collada format. Currently only works with static models.
Collada fixscript - Python script that fixes Collada static models for use in Blender 2.5x

:P

then all the 0ad model become accessible
They need re-work because they are too realisic for STK (IMHO) but it's a good thing to get a so nice bank!
About the ruins: I saw them in game but I cannot tell you the name of the files, but all temples are in the /art/meshes/structural folder

Also, I suggest not spending too much time on building a large library of models. What is needed much more is the technological infrastructure to use it; there is no need in building a library of hundreds of models when we can't even use them

[rubberduck]

i don't want to use the time to convert them, i think, that they also could be very high poly

i think, that these parts aren't so useful
