This is a fun challenge i want to put forward to you all. It not a competition or anything just something to pass some time with and have fun.

I've been away from this forum for a LONG LONG time and since i got back into 3d modeling again i thought "why not let people have a play with these".

basically what u can do is this.

1. Texture them as u want with in reason.
2. u can use the models freely in anything u want.
3. Post what u have done here.
4. Don't be affrade to have a go.
5. If u like u can edit the 3d models, but please say what u changed.

I'm rubbish at texturing but i'm gonna try too.

i will post more models here from time to time, and they are a little like the buildings u used to get in the settlers

i've attached an image of what i did while i thought this up.

and as i said HAVE FUN!

Ether you are lazy and don't want to texture,

Or your trying to impress your unseen cyber girlfriend with amazing renders from other people. Why not just render our own models? Heck, why don't you just steal our renders of our models?

If those aren't the cases, then give me 5 reasons and a essay why we should render your model.

*ahem* this sort of thing happens all the time on polycount, altho it usually happens the other way round, ie someone makes a model, and people like it so much they ask for an SDK to be released.

Quote: "angsty"


I think that communication break that we experiance on these forums could be from people using english words regardless of the meanings.

1.Angsty is not a word. Angst is the word and requires no alterations.
2.Does not belong here in this thread.

meaning 1= A feeling of dread, anxiety, or anguish
meaning 2= A feeling of anxiety or apprehension often accompanied by depression.
meaning 3= An acute but unspecific feeling of anxiety; usually reserved for philosophical anxiety about the world or about personal freedom
*also an abbreviation for angstrom which means
A unit of length equal to one hundred-millionth (10-8) of a centimeter, used especially to specify radiation wavelengths. Also called angstrom unit. See table at measurement.

I know someone is going to have something to say in response to this, but I could care less. And the reason everyone fights is due to the fact that more people try to use words to sound intelligent.
Please if you have never used the word in a day to day conversation try not to use it at all. or atleast open the dictionary before you do. I don't care about mis-spelled words because we all fat finger the keyboard at times, it's when people try to use words that are above thier current comprehension.

sooo.... greenlig made a valid point over people on this board constantly fighting, and what do you do? Complain about him making a word up, which actually describes the feeling on this board pretty well.

If you want to pick a fight over the english language, please direct your energy to the word "bouncebackability"

from your reply I gather that you obviously have no concept of the english language. The point I was making is this:

People trying to use words that they do not know the meaning of or how to use them properly in a sentence. This seems to create more hassle than anything else as this leads to mis-communication between the two or three parties, sorta like what you and I are having. you fail to see the importance of using the proper word or one that is relevant to the subject at hand.

I do beleive Greenlig asked this question
Quote: "Why must we always fight??"


And I have answered at least one portion that causes fights or as you people will call them Flamewars. The funny thing is is that you missed the whole point of my post. See even to use angst in in this topic is incorrect as these forums are not filled with a feeling of fear, depression and or anxiety. Don't worry one day you will understand that to attain the best possible results you need to communicate very clearly and be very thorough with your requests or description of service or problem. You can not expect anything to be accomplished when you use words that discribe something different than what is being asked or mentioned. think about that for a while. I know your going to respond in a negative manner or you wont now because I called you out on it. but just think about this situation. If someone walks up to you and tries to tell you that his car broke down and his wife is in labor. but in your eyes it sounded like "I need a few dollars for a bus fare" if that oerson would have stopped and actually thought about what was going on and what he needed to say, you probably would have understood his needs.

If only you'd spelt "description" and "fare" correctly...


I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and presume that your last two posts were in fact ironic and you were trying to make a point of how bitchy the board had become by chastising Greenlig over something as benign as making up a word.


Whatever your intentions were, you clearly have too much time on your hands and are not worth any more of my time.

You are still missing the point. If you haven't figured it out by now than you never will. And that is why the world is going to hell in a hand basket.

By the way I also incorrectly spelled "know" I had it as "knopw". I didn't proof read before I posted.

@Reality Forgotten: You answered the question in the way you saw fit, however an important part of communication is empathy with the person or people you're trying to communicate with. So, while Greenlig may have been 'incorrect' in his use of the word angsty, pulling him up on it and implying that it was accidental misuse of words that cause people to start flamewars, was quite obviously not going to endear you to anyone in this thread.

As for the correct and incorrect use of a word, you sound like someone who believes they have a good grasp of the use of language, thus I assume that you also understand that languages are living things that change daily with use. That the English language of now is very different from the English language of even just 100 years ago. That the meaning of words change, and that if enough people know what you mean when you use a word, then that word is seen to have that meaning. For example "W00t" - a word that didn't exist say more than 20 years ago, but now resides in your Location entry. I know what w00t means, you know what w00t means, many other people know too - thus it is a word known to the English language, and I wouldn't be surprised if it entered the dictionary a decade from now.
Words change, and as long as the meaning is understood by your audience, then your aim has been achieved. As such, Greenlig's use of 'angsty' to describe the increasingly aggrivated and knee-jerk reactions of these boards to seemingly quite innocent posts was perfectly valid, as I'm sure the majority of people who read it understood exactly what he meant.

Which was probably; that people should stop jumping down each other's throats for the slightest thing. I'm looking at you, Reality Forgotten. In a metaphorical sense, of course.



@DLS: Nice little house. May I ask how many polygons it has? Something like that would be quite nice for an RTS or something similar - it'd do well seen in great numbers from a distance.

I've said in a previous post(ironically recently), that aggression is really wasted over the internet. And by implying that misuse of words start flamewars...and then flaming...you started a small flamewar yourself. Had you perhaps gone at it in a less aggresive, and more constructive way, things wouldn't have gone out of control. As for this topic, I would be glad to take a shot at texturing that when my computer is back up and running.


Problems? Yes I used to have those...until I went insane.

I used it as an example. Did not intend it to be a flamewar.

Simply put: Alot of questions can be resolved by clearely explaining what you need help with or what you want. And a big part of that is using the correct wording. did not mean to get people spun up. I also stated that spelling is not a big issue. read the qoute.

Lol @ RF - What are you some kind of English guru? Been to University yet? Have you actually completed or even started a degree in English? Linguistics? And I dont mean finishing some stupid college or High-school class.

Of course I use the word "angsty" in normal conversation, as do many people.

The best bit?
Quote: " it's when people try to use words that are above thier current comprehension.
"


hahahaha and that makes you sound SOOO intelligent!! Yay I'm being tutored by an angsty nerd with a massive ego.

I have done english at University mate, so don't go trying your intelli-babble with me.

Oh and I've used angsty twice now, does that mean I can utilize it in my vocabulary?



Everyone here thinks your an idiot now, when I'm sure you wanted the audience to see just how smart and intelligent you are.

Email me if you'd like to continue this RF, because I will happily talk of this but not on this thread anymore. zac[dot]duff[at]gmail[dot]com

Well i've had a go at it. I was going for Realistic as posible. i diddn't change anything on the model just added a simple door texture, brick and tile for the roof. Including a bump map to compliment it.

Hope you like it.

Thats great mate, nice use of c4d techniques l).

As for Greenlig's 'Angsty', I'm sure any person educated enough in English will tell you how making your own slang is very common, I do it with everything, it makes what you say yours and people understand what you're saying, just because people make up words, don't make them dumb. Think about that before flaming somebody.

There should have never been a flame war at all. I never said I was an english professor nor did I claim to be the end authority on the language. You all assumed thats what I said. As for my school background I am working on a BA in software engineering.

rammalamma-ding-dong- It's from the end scene. Ya know the one from the highschool carnival.

DLS- Looks good man.

DLS- you could try creating a seemless texture of a roof and a wall picture and then force flood it in paintshop or photoshop. I think that would give it a better appearance overall. I'm going to try and texture one of your buildings. Hopefully I have been paying attention enough to get a realistic texture.

Hey DLS what do you think of these textures? I think they would work on a couple of the buildings you have made available for download.

i might at some point re-do the uv mapping, but for now i'm not going for the ultimate in realism just yet.

textures look good RF, but i'll look at them better later on. oh and i', looking forwad to seeing what one of those buildings will look like

i been tying to add smoke coming out of the chimney, but i ended up with it raining

btw, going a little off topic, any1 know how to do smoke in 3Ds? tried to follow the tutorial and to be very mild and polite... its a bit messed up i think.

I will look, I think you can do this by adding a few planes above the chimeny and then adding a texture to it. See attached crappy paint drawing. I am at work so I do not have access to photoshop or paintshop.

You dont have to have 4 planes... you can have each plane pointing to the position of the camera.
