But that roof needs some loving care. Here is a tip I learned for a conical roof that will accept material better: Start with a cylinder, ~16-20 vertices, open ends. That will give you rectangular faces on the sides. Select all vertices on the top rim and scale to 0. Give it a try. I see little people. Top Quote

One can hardly see how it would look like in the game and something that looks good in a big model could look different (i.e. worse or even better) in a small one. As for the mine: The wood texture should be the same as at the well. They're both made of trunk, I think? A suggestion for the player colour: You could make the roof above the mine shaft not that solid but with a canopy in player colour. I know, Chuck made something like that at the Atlantean shipyard (and other buildings there, too). I'm just not sure, whether that fits the picture of the Barbarians. But it could be worth a try. What do you think? Edited: 2010-12-19, 20:35 Two is the oddest prime. Top Quote

They're both made of trunk, I think? could be right even though i´m not shure if i shouldn´t rather change the well because the other models done before by chuckw. got that plain material too A suggestion for the player colour: You could make the roof above the mine shaft not that solid but with a canopy in player colour.

What do you think? jes, great idea! didn´t think of that and just put that flagpole there because i didn´t find any spot to get the playercolor on, thank you ^^ live is my dancefloor as long as my lag works Top Quote

They are just what I would have said. @kingcreole We are trying to steer away from the "orange" wood where possible. Those buildings you see with it are carryovers from the original and should ultimately be adjusted to more natural colors and textures. Regarding the mine: I like the overall design. Here are some things to bear in mind with this and all of the buildings: the structures should be designed with floors visible in their doorways where applicable. a 4 frame building sequence should be created for all of the buildings, especially military buildings. Working animation is desired for all production sites. (By "working animation" I mean animation that depicts the building in its "working state". (e.g. smoke from chimneys, light in mine shafts, windmills turning, etc.) Refer to the existing png file(s) in the game to get an approximation of the size required of the finished images. Keep plugging, I like what I'm seeing. I'd like to see you push a branch to the widelands-media trunk if you can work out your SSH key challenge. Cheers!
