OLD Project Development and Discussion

it actually allows for up to 32X the original texture size, but we want to keep this as "playable" as possible considering that some low end computers might not be able to handle above 16X (most of the textures are only 4X but important things like the skyboxes are 16X )

I'm going to be little honest - doesn't look very venom-ish ^^'' - the ground doesn't compliment the sky box for some reason o.o - maybe my screen is wacky.

maybe a tint of orange and black? and more details/res

I like it atm though ^^

well i've been working on a new skybox for katina and it's almost done, i just need to up the resolution, and fix a couple of small errors ^^

great work fox

dang it. paint.net can do many things but it can't fix the small mess i've made of this skybox. i guess i'll just have to wait for andross to fix it for me but this is what it looks like at the moment. you can see that there's only some small glitches in it at the moment.

EDIT: fixed it myself after experimenting for a while and some small (yeah right) tweaks here's the final product:

thanks. the "snow" was just a result of the transparency plugin that i used to seperate the mountains from the sky in their original picture. but unfortunately all other colors to replace the blue kinda failed so i just used white instead to fill in the mountains.

That's look empty but still a good job.
Did you change the base?The one in the center of the map.

I kinda like the Venom style. That dark green adds up to the remote feeling of being on this planet. Like it's so far that the Sun light (or Lylat light in this case) is very dim.

Also, it looks a bit odd to find snowy peaks on Katina, as it was never referenced as a snowy/mountainous planet, but I guess that for the sack of this work it could look OK.

it looks empty because i flew to the edge of the map so that i could get a shot of the skybox by itself. believe me there was still everything there if you look at the radar XD

Edit:
ok i've had my fair share of Prnt Scrn texture glitches in the past, but this is just ridiculous, it took out all the models and even tore a hole in the floor =.=

i recently was looking through the old screenshots on shadows of lylat and came across one where the arwing was flying out of the docking bay of the great fox. and i was inspired

since the arwing 2 was basically just an upgrade of the SF64 arwing i decided to throw it into sketchup and see how it would look with LR's textures (if we managed to get at the models) and the results actually wern't half bad O.o;

Well I honestly don't like it too much. I'd rather stick with the originala arwing model.
Arwing II always looked toy-ish to me.

Same way for me,I prefer the original

well that was all just a joke anyway and shame for those who didn't catch on XD in any case you all should know me better. thanks to little fox i managed to get the assault's arwing model so if we ever DO get at the models THAT is what's going in my personal game and an upped res Arwing model similar to that of the SOL model will be going in the public release game

You're gonna use SOL arwing?

Wow, haven't been on here for a while, nice to see everything's back in business.

not exactly that one as it would be impossible to obtain their model, but if i can i will make something similar to it.

and here's the assault model for those who were curious.
