Titel: Lake Town from The Hobbit movie
Beitrag von: XDeadXPool am 31. Mär 2016, 11:48
I have started a map: Lake Town from The Hobbit movie.
I have already made the basement of Lake Town itself but the problem is: the units walks on the ground and not on the dock parts of celduin.
Can somebody help me? This is the only problem I will normally have so I hope to Give the link for download by the end of this week. I will post some screenshots when a part is ready. Here is a link to the first screenshot.

Thanks

the flooring wood panels act only as a decoration and so units cant actually walk on them so you have to lower the z meter of each dale floor until you can see it properly and till iits just barely above the terrain if that makes sense.

Actually it doesn't matter how high the terrain is. The important thing is to make the terrain beneath the wooden panels invisible. You can do that with the texturing option.

In any case it looks very nice good work :).

I am not shure if i would do a wall around the whole town or only the front?
What do you think is the best?

Around... but leave some empty space for docks, so you can build ships and put your units on them. I know that ships sucks at the moment, but it's Lake-town!  :P

Postern gate don't seems suitable. Just break in walls. ;)

Zitat

that doesn't work because your units will still be walking on the terrain meaning half their bodys will be clipping through the wooden panels.

Ah wait I think I misunderstood your post xD. The terrain should indeed blend in with the wooden panels, and at the same time made invisible.

Yes but the problem with rohan walls is, if there is a break it is just the end from a wall, if you understand?

I've just finished the wall.
Now I will do the other houses and buildings inside the town.
