BG2 map

I have decided to make my own thread, things are changing fast so I dont want to flood the wip thread.

Anywho, heres whats going on, started work on a river to the side of the emplacment. It ends in a large waterfall. I have roughed that in with a scrolling texture for the water, but I still need to get it looking nice.

I think I will start on my skybox very soon, its going to dictate the look of the map a lot I think. I am still not 100% sure how I am going to do it. At the moment I am leaning towards making a big model.

thats really awsome!! and just what BG2 needs some great looking maps,

i've always found the mod enjoyable while alitle frustrating, it is really tobad the mod hasnt drawn some really skilled people yet, that can bring this to the next level, and rework the skins and models

really nice work!

hot indeed.

nice trees and scenery. now you just need a kickass skymap and youve got a map to be proud of.

Looks hot indeed, I dig the atmosphere. I'm so tired of those strongly lit maps...

Looks amazing, but the fog seems to be off. It dosn't really seem to blend in with the sky or the surroundings that well.

Nice map tomdon, I remember your trees for CG, they didn't looked bad, but that ones are just amazing. You'll need a "fogged" skybox to match the map fog.

I have started work on the 3d sky. I have added a few small trees and houses, but it still has lots of work needed to do on it.

Looks very nice so far though.

Looks awesome, only complaint is that the trees look really spritey / half life like.

Polaris · July 22, 2006 at 5:12 AM

Thats because some of them are sprites.

Nice stuff Tomdon. BG was fun, I'll tryout BG2 soon.

Your both close. At long range the foliage switches to a 8 triangle billboard style tree.

Wow, I really dig the atmosphere too! Great work!

st0lve · July 22, 2006 at 12:25 PM

Small update, I have started on the house/farm buildings at the edge of the map.
