Moonshadow Trees Reply to this Post Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Posts Report Post to a Moderator       IP Information Go to the top of this page

Ok, I've finally fixed my black bark problem (turns out bark textures can't be in subfolders of the branches folder) So, I have some shots of the 6 Dawn trees ingame.

But, I'm pretty sure I got the concept wrong, so the trees I have will probably be changed. I don't know how to make them look though, so if someone who knows what they should look like can just draw up a quick sketch of them, and maybe even some trees for Dusk, I can finally get this set completed. I'd actually like a concept for dawn and dusk shrubs if possible as well :D

Also, the trees still have issues I'm working out. Specifically, I can't texture for crap, so the trees are glossy at unpredictable times, and trees 5 and 6 for some reason have issues looking like they're supposed to. But trees 1-4 are perfect, aside from the shiny bark.

I feel like the shiny bark fits nicely with the feel of Moonshadow, but that's just me. Kudos nonetheless.

I was actually thinking about trying it with the shiny, but it has some flaws. Fist, the leaves aren't shiny, which really looks odd. Secondly, the trees don't take the shiny too well, and they're only shiny sometimes (you can see from a few of the pics how some are shiny yet some aren't, yet they have the same texture)

So, if I get some concepts, I can make the rest of the trees which should hopefully be no problem now.

The shiny bark is cool - there are RL trees that have shiny bark too! Good job!

As for the leaves - one way forward might be to see if the shininess / reflectivity can be applied consistantly and can be therefore exploitable - this is a plane of Oblivion you're modding, not Tamriel or even Nirn right? So it should have qualities of alienness.
