Well, I had a flash of inspiration earlier, and decided to use it as my next project, enter; The Valley

texturing, the textures arent natural on a lot of those ;)

Looks really good, especially the rocks and vegetation 8-) ... perhaps the water texture needs some work though :?

Yeah, I spent about an hour earlier trying to get the water texture to look good, but nothing i tried really worked, so I stuck with boring plain 'solid' water. And yeah lizard, your right... the mesh is playing silly-buggers with the textures! ( :( ) Nevertheless, I think I shall proceed :)

Awsomo! :D

Just be sure to test it at some different Gfx settings. Patch meshes can be right little bastards at different settings... but you look like you know hat you are doing :D

Please tell, I can easily load up my back-ups :wink:

(please note, this is -fast -fast compile with leak :) )

I see MJ's fantasy has broken out again 8-), I see some very nice job already. A lot of patch meshes, one of mj's favorite stuff I guess. Keep it up! I can't wait untill it's done m8 :D it's worth to finish this one, and for playing ofcourse :wink:. The only thing I'm afraid for is the FPS when it's done.

Again, it's looking very nice

I like the first three shots but I don't really know what to make of the snow and the sand, seems a bit incohesive. However the first shots immediately made me think of some custom skybox called "The Druid Cove".

Wow, thanks! As you say pantera, some of the sand and snow is looking a little 'dodgy' at the moment, so I'm gonna give arabia a shuffle :) I just wanted to build a map in which you could view a snowman and a sandy plain in one :wink:

This map needs some serious work at the moment, its a large map which needs alot of filling, and takes 2 hours to compile with a leak :roll:

My next idea is to fill dead ends with teleports - and you guys know my highup map? Probably not, basically its a small map suspended in the middle of nowhere... I'm thinking of using that as a teleportation 'hub'

I didn't lose my mind, the penguin stole it :wink:

Errr, hrmm, where are those plants from :oops: ?
I'm bored with the boring natural stuff in MOHAA and 'd like to make some new...

The trees are fully MoH (branches_horizontal), the snowytrees are those edited, and the rest are custom :)

branches_horizontal -lmao- (typical texture name :D )
Well, anyway, how can I make plants? I mean, 3d? (Well, alright, if you look at the plants in Moh, they're no really 3d - even those that are s'posed to be :lol: . (Hmm, well, I guess it's still better than in TombRaider 1 :D )
But, thanks for the help (or advice or whatever) anyway, Mj :wink:
