Re: Copycat topic (Josh's dev topic)

I agree. The CS rocks you used take away from the realism but they look fine for what you have done. That being said, I would suggest other options like Weber Stone Creations Vol. 1-3. I have used them a lot more recently and I think there is a great level of variety in terms of shape while providing three great-looking, realistic textures to choose from.

The black looks odd.

Re: Copycat topic (Josh's dev topic)

Actually, I see black and green as a fairly common color combo and although it is one of the more "out there" color schemes I think it works fine here. Although I do have one more critique, if you could use some sort of diagonal fence piece on the area in right side of the pic, it would make it look cleaner in my mind.

The balck at the begining? Yeah, I'm still working on that.

Re: Copycat topic (Josh's dev topic)

In any design, if you can avoid using black then do it. Black is good for outlines (if you need it).
A dark brown/blue/purple/green w/e is always a better alternative.
Black kills colour.

Re: Copycat topic (Josh's dev topic)

^I see what you are saying...but it can also provide great contrast for bright colors...like the green used for this coaster. But yeah, not sure what the black box at the start is...some sort of short indoor section? And now that I think of it...why the catwalks before the helix?

Re: Copycat topic (Josh's dev topic)

I sort of just threw those in for fun.

Fix that little section on the station platform, haha. But really, this is great looking stuff. It's awesome to see how our RCT3 group has progressed over the past year or so and how everyone is many times better than they used to be. Awesome work mate!

Re: Copycat topic (Josh's dev topic) [EUROFIGHTER UPDATE] P.

Yeah, I noticed that after I posted and couldn't be bother to go back into the game and fix it. Thanks though Derek.

Looks great ! You're using and mixing well different sceneries. My main criticism would be that the trees you use don't vary a lot, there's too many pines in my opinion. You can try Old Spice's vegetation sets to make your foliage more diverse, or simply further alternate between in-game trees.

 

[reddude333]

Re: Copycat topic (Josh's dev topic) [EUROFIGHTER UPDATE] P.

I'd suggest Weber's Trees Megapack...it may not have pines but it's a really good set of foliage...used it for my comp entry...

 

[Josh73]

Re: Copycat topic (Josh's dev topic) [EUROFIGHTER UPDATE] P.

Yeah I thought the same. I'm going to use Weber's because Old Spice's are rar. files, and I can't be bothered to download winrar right now.

 

[Josh73]

Re: Copycat topic (Josh's dev topic) [EUROFIGHTER UPDATE] P.

Weber's Trees won't download (don't konw why)

But here are some new screen shots, and some on-ride pics coming soon!

EDIT: Promo made. Thoughts?

Re: Copycat topic (Josh's dev topic) [EUROFIGHTER UPDATE] P.

Pretty cool teaser, except for the visible menus. Have you tried "David Walsh" ?

 

[reddude333]

Re: Copycat topic (Josh's dev topic) [EUROFIGHTER UPDATE] P.

Or even just cropping photos...many ways of fixing it, just choose one

Re: Copycat topic (Josh's dev topic) [EUROFIGHTER UPDATE] P.

Or re-theme the ride to sci-fi and have the UI to add "RP". Like the images are taken from some sort of sci-fi camera with annoying stuff on it.

 

[Josh73]
