ok folks.... zero 7 has kindly rendered some container props for me, of varying colours... but i think it would be unfair to burden him with all my rendering.
I would please ask anyone with 3dsmax 9 or above to please consider offering their services to me as a renderer i think i have some real gems in here and people are always complaining i never release anything. I have devised a method that zero7 can vouch for that does not requirer the renderer to retexture the model.
so anyway here is the big list of projects ordered according to their status...
COMPLETED AWAITING RENDER
eight various scenes to be made into two prop families of large scale intermodal cranes...

anything else you have seen pictures of by me is either a write off/ corrupt file/ needs restarting or i just dont like it.
I would like to clear some of this backlog but i cannot unfortunately do it alone.
Looking good. :)
I like the imax theater in particular, but the render isn't giving it justice.
I have 3ds Max 8.
Awesome stuff. &apls
My favorites of this well-varied bunch were the cranes, IMAX theater, and the industrial warehouse. It's great to see a fellow individual who values diversity in their industrial areas. :)
Sorry that I can't help with the rendering, but good luck in getting these beauties finished! :thumbsup:

Guess who's back.... the gods of BAT4MAX have shown favour to me it seems and functionality has returned. first up on the chopping block is the IMAX....

and the all important first successful in game test, alot of LOD tweaking is still to be done, but this first attempt uses a 12 sided cylinder.

Why have you got straight edges on your LOD? Make the LOD a cylinder, it'll still work. :thumbsup:
thats what caused me all the problems last time
Never had a problem with them...I rendered Glenni's roundabouts with cylindrical LODs no problem. Try it and if it errors, can you post the error here.
That looks amazing-I'm eagerly awaiting this :thumbsup:
Is it to scale or made to fit the roundabout intentionally?
