Just a grain of salt: Brian said the new textures will only be available in the retail release. Don’t hold me to that as plans could change or he chooses to elaborate more on the process.
I wing it. But it is kinda concepted. I don’t draw it out but I do try different combinations of things until I find something I like or I usually combine a bunch of real world objects into my version. Some times its done to match models done by orther guys. Just all depends.
Yeah that is the current plan.
@Brian you can use this as a template for your next thread to post the ground rules if you wish.
Since people seem to have a difficult time understanding the ground rules laid out in the first thread:
The ground rules are only models/textures displayed here.
[b][u][i]Brian (bkdale) WILL NOT answer questions about any other content. Including but not limited to: Xen, level changes, what’s going on internally with the devs, his personal life, hospitalization, etc. Unless he explicitly states he wishes to answer such questions, you will not get an answer. The only questions that are acceptable and that he will answer are ones pertaining to the current project, I.E. the textures and models used inside of the pictures.
He has a low tolerance for this. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE RULES WILL RESULT IN THREAD CLOSURE AND POSSIBLE TERMINATION OF PUBLIC SHARING BY THE DEVELOPER AT THEIR CHOICE. THIS IS NON-NEGOTIABLE. AS INDICATED BELOW:[/SIZE][/i][/u][/b]
As you can see, if you don’t follow the rules, you ruin it for everyone.[/SIZE]
TL;DR:
-
Be respectful and constructive with your criticisms. If you’re not sure, read it to yourself and ask yourself “Would I want to answer this myself?,” if your answer’s no, re-word it. Saying “I don’t like X” and not elaborating will result in someone confusing you for the common troll (if you act like a jerk).
-
Don’t be a jerk. This is straight forward, don’t go on a tirade about something stupid. You can get banned or get slapped with an infarction for that in extreme cases.
-
If you want to ask questions that are only superficially pertaining to the topic such as this or this they’re okay, but don’t expect an answer. He does this at his own leisure.
The mods or devs can add to or remove from this list at their leisure.
I don’t mind that at all because I’m still definitly going to buy the retail version. This remake is incredible, and the devs really deserve money for what they’ve made.
[COLOR=‘DarkOrange’]Posts deleted. Next person breaking the thread rules will get a temp ban.
@Keresh I edited my last post to at least (superficially) spell out the rules as I understand them. Someone’s free to link to it or Ctrl+c/+v to the next thread if they want to. Actually on that topic Brian, I encourage you to do just that (copy the text in my old post)…
Ignoring spelling out the rules for new people to the thread I have a question:
How long does it take you to retexture the models roughly? I know times are relative considering the size of the textures.
Sixcentgeorge, You are welcome to your opinion, there are multiple constructive ways you could have approached how you expressed yourself. I’m doing this blog as a favor the to the forum followers, I do this for fun and as a hobby to relax, but when I have to wade through shit like you posted then posted again after people said something it makes me mad. So you can either follow the rules I put forth for blogs and express your opinion constructively or you can get banned and I stop posting cause either way is no skin off my teeth. So since you wanted to know why you didn’t get warned for some of your comments, it’s because I wasn’t in here for the last day or so and because I was working late. So you get your warning and a temp ban too. I’m also gonna stop posting for a while, maybe permanently, because it stops being fun when I have to do things when people can’t act like adults.
