MrTheBull Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 Is it possible yet to implement lights that turn on at night or the model switching its texture at night (windows etc.)would be great for some Advertisement-panels!http://i.imgur.com/W4qWHHu.png(made this one in 20 Minutes 62 polygons)I should find this way too) For my BAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nothke Posted October 12, 2013 Author Share Posted October 12, 2013 (edited) Transparent texture + alpha cutoff shaderNot the cutoff but the alpha translucency + specular shaderthat collection of pixels is a Kerbal xD it takes like 5 minutes to cross from one side of the terminal to other =( And look at that first floor, it'll need a 100 meter long stairs.I am panicking right now. I can't change it cause I'd need to rework the windows, the curves, and worst.. The access road =( it took me a week to get all this and now I see it's actually unusable.Is it possible yet to implement lights that turn on at night or the model switching its texture at night (windows etc.)would be great for some Advertisement-panels!]http://i.imgur.com/W4qWHHu.png(made this one in 20 Minutes 62 polygons)I already have modular billboard structures that I'll spread across the city. It is possible to make it turn on the lights in the night but I am not yet sure if the emmisive texture or actual unity lights are a better method.

B787_300 Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 hey nothke, find out how the devs did the new runway lights.... they are only on at night from what i can tell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nothke Posted October 12, 2013 Author Share Posted October 12, 2013 (edited) Tell us!!!I asked them, they didn't reply. I asked them when I was doing the lights for PAPI pluginEDIT: Bac9 replied now =) It's nothing special really, it doesn't involve billboarding as I previously thought. It's just several planes intersecting with an emissive texture.Courtesy of Bac9:The lights on the beginning of the runway have the thick wide flare, but others don't, that's why those 2 lights look brighter, I thought they change with distance but actually they don't xDhttp://i.imgur.com/SrjQJS9.png Edited October 12, 2013 by nothke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TouhouTorpedo Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 Fair enough I suppose then lolAlso I think I got the scale off, but ready to try a prototype of this building with Kerbtown now as soon as I've stuck it on a pedestal to get it off the wobbly terrain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mettwurst Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 Well.. it dind't look THAT HUGE in the first picture I am panicking right now. I can't change it cause I'd need to rework the windows, the curves, and worst.. The access road =( it took me a week to get all this and now I see it's actually unusable.is it possible to make a plane cut at the building, separate it from the ground and then scale it down to fit the height and then cut it into seperate segments that you can tile so it fits again?Sorry if i'm talking bull****, cause I don't know the workflow in the program you use..IF you would like, you could send me the mesh? Then I could take a look how I might help! I already have modular billboard structures that I'll spread across the city. It is possible to make it turn on the lights in the night but I am not yet sure if the emmisive texture or actual unity lights are a better method.

Mettwurst Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 Doing some Interior Work now too, the Outside of the tower only hat 84 polygons,so it wont have to much of an impact (i hope)What is the recommended amount of Polygons I should stay in?

TouhouTorpedo Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 (edited) Hmm, I've hit a snag. Only some meshes are exporting in Blender. I don't know why some of them aren't doing so.EDIT : Believe I've found the cause, had put two textures in one mesh. Blender lets you do it, but just Blender lol Edited October 12, 2013 by TouhouTorpedo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedwedianPresident Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 I think this could be used for KSPRP so for realism players can actually launch their rockets from their actual space centers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TouhouTorpedo Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 First pics of testing the car parkIt does seem fairly large but once you're using it, and driving around it, its probably about the right size. I might at most bring it down to maybe 90%, 80% at worst. Next step I guess is dump it in Kerbin City and see how it looks there, where it might fit, then look at adding some of the buildings I'd been working on. I may need to look at reducing the polys as well, its probably got a few too many (used the polygons as a trick to make shapes I wanted on the floor without new textures, but probably too many)Also Nothke I'm moving forward with it but as a word of warning Unity importer doesn't like the DAE file its exporting, so its probably going to be a pile of OBJ files instead for each different texture. (with the same origin for each so they'll just overlap no fuss)I think this could be used for KSPRP so for realism players can actually launch their rockets from their actual space centers.Nah. Thats something you'd do with Kerbtown itself rather than this. Certainly dont want to launch rockets in Cities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobCat Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 nothkeMaybe you make one for all glass color? I think my glass too much dark blue. Main island have free plot or mission building?

Tw1 Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 (edited) Wow, so much activity here all of a sudden!Terminal hall:-snip-Looking pretty awesome, I like the shape.! It's not possible to rescale vertically, and tweak it a bit, without ruining the whole thing?? Or perhaps we need some escalators and travelators. Is that transparent texture something that could be shared? It'd be great to use on the station.Shadows are awesome! You can do a lot with just light and shadows. I had a lecture or two last year, only about use of light and shadow.Main island have free plot or mission building? Wind generator, Atomic station, somthing else ?Perhaps, some sort of Opera House? As long as it's not an obvious rip off of this, it'd be cool. You could use some other shape, rather than the sails. Or something.
