pkjoan Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 This project is looking really good, everything seems really realistic albeit to Hyrule´s geography. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spire Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 That mountain looks fantastic. You've really got an eye for geography. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secant Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I noticed for the desert map, there are some lighting seams between the polygons that make up the mountain and the sand hills which make it look a bit odd. You can correct this by adjusting the normals in whatever 3D modeling program you use; if it's SketchUp, just select the polygons you want to make look smoother, right click them, and select 'smooth faces,' then just increase the slider for the crease angle until they all look more natural. Just something I thought would make an awesome map look even better; keep up the excellent work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManInYellowHat Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Shit man, that's cool. Now all you need is a big open desert plain on the other side, which has like a quest to open up part of the mountain and get into the temple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vava Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Ooooh that's really good ! The buried pyramid, the guard, the cage, the tunnel that we don't see in the first place, the awry pillars for the hookshot... That makes me want to explore and to know more and more about the place. Very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeDDyD Posted July 7, 2013 Author Share Posted July 7, 2013 Current W.I.P: Hyrule Market Town More Screenshots: Still need to place the majority of actors, and none of the 'exits' have been set up (in fact the doors are textures rather then actors, due to the map getting major framerate drops and other little problems I encountered - soft locks, etc... ) but for the most part it's done and I'm rather proud of the result :-) I'll post up a video of the map as well when I get around to it. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Three_Pendants Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 That is amazing! I have always talked about how we should get rid of those ugly pre-rendered maps and replace them with something more authentic and it looks like you have the right idea in this matter! The ToT looks a little less grand than it should, but everything else looks pretty great! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three_Pendants Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Now that looks like a desirable Temple of Time. The previous colors gave me Mario 64 Peach's Castle vibe for some reason, this seems much more appropriate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hannssoni Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 will you make other 2d maps ( or what ever thous are called ) to 3D like the castle solider thing ... and shops (maybe thous aren't high priority ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeDDyD Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 Thanks for the comments and feedback everyone, really appreciate it and it helps motivate me. :-) Here's a quickly thrown together preview of the Market Town map: will you make other 2d maps ( or what ever thous are called ) to 3D like the castle solider thing ... and shops (maybe thous aren't high priority ) I kinda just put this together as a test, I have no plans to recreate any other 2D in-game maps at the moment. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeDDyD Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 Adult Link Version: No changes to the actual map itself, just the actors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spire Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 The Wolfos are a great addition. I'm really curious to see if you'll retexture/remodel the town to be ruined. I could lend a hand if you'd like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDi-Fails Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Looks nice. However, the Temple of Time is pretty short. Also, cut down a bit of space on the map by having a collision map without the roofs of houses and other things you can't reach the top of. That might help with the actor problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcaith Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 You can probably cut down the number of collision polygons massively, it's a simple enough job. To give something of an example, the market map that I did has the following: Graphical Mesh Vertices: 1,911 Faces: 1,935 Collision Mesh Vertices: 787 Faces: 899 Both counts (verts and faces) are reduced by at least 1,000. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to the both of you. I did as you suggested and made a seperate collision map (with all the roofs and other places out of reach removed from it) now the map loads up alot better (it took care of the majority of framerate drops in the map and now I can load up more actors!). :-) The Wolfos are a great addition. I'm really curious to see if you'll retexture/remodel the town to be ruined. I could lend a hand if you'd like. No plans to do so at the moment but possibly in the future, thanks for the offer I'll definitely get back to you if I end up giving the Ruined Market a try (I think it would be interesting to collab on a map). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallos31 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Just a couple of suggestions. First, I think the outside and drawbridge should be removed and you enter the market with a transition like usual. It would just look a bit better. And the reflecting pools next to the ToT are missing. I'm sure you know all of this, but still. LOL That market is pretty dang awesome! Making an entire map based on a texture is pretty great!

JeDDyD Posted August 8, 2013 Author Share Posted August 8, 2013 Mini Dungeon (Transition Test Map) I plan to release a patch and video preview tomorrow. It's really more of a test (first time I've created a multi-room map/used transition actors) then anything so don't expect the puzzles to pose much difficulty. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcaith Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 From what I can see, your test dungeon looks pretty darn solid; well done man Once vertex shading editing is possible, it'd look fantastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
