SG Canal set

[rooker1]

They look great to me.  Very good job!

Your canals look nice, I like them!
btw, is there a chance to make seawalls which looks like those canals?

Thank you

Hi Anubileinchen  I don't know how to create seewalls, if I can find out, I'll try to bring these textures on some walls
Btw: I'm makin a bridge piece at the moment, how does is look? I'm pretty satisfied with it...

A bridge in the RL will never be made with wood so light. Have a look around. Add some wear and tear to the texture.

How high is the rail ? I would say it should be at least 1.5 m, maybe even 1.8 m.

[FromTheAshes]

I'll find a better texture, don't worry 
Actually the rail is 2 meters tall ^^ It would look very unrealistic to have it smaller, wouldn't it?
otot I made a mistake with the LOD, but I know what I did wrong.
In this picture you can also see the the flower-LOTs I was talking about.


PS: Please don't await wonder things from me. I've just startet BATing and LOTing and this is my first real project.

[Howling]

Man I love these canal lots. I hope to see lots of variety!

Keep up the good work FTA 

[FromTheAshes]

Thanks
I worked a bit on the model and LOD, addet some props and trees. The last thing I have to do on this model is making the water around 2-3m wider.

The rest is ok.

i sorta liked the wood texture you used for the first bridge pic.   It is supposed to be a pedestrian bridge.    And it looks newly constructed.   I like it, the planks are running the wrong direction in the second (darker) version.

the planks are running the wrong direction in the second (darker) version.

Not necessarily. That depend on how the structure is underneath.

[FromTheAshes]

Gaston is right, they ARE running the wrong direction. I already turned them 90° in the material editor, but while rendering it turns back.

[toxicpiano]

Nice work! Any chance of a modern version?

[FromTheAshes]

Just give me some textures But first I want to get finished with the basic set of this type.
there are a few parts missing :/
I've no motivation at the moment, hope this is gonna be ending during the weekend

[bat]

that are great canalpieces! I like that bridge-piece! Nice textures!

[callagrafx]

Gaston is right, they ARE running the wrong direction. I already turned them 90° in the material editor, but while rendering it turns back.

Don't rotate in ME, change the UVW map to get the right direction...most of the functions of ME are ignored by BAT (especially bump maps).  Also, don't tile the UVW map..either make the texture bigger (clone) in PS, or reduce the size of the UVW map to get more control of the texture.

[FromTheAshes]

Thank you for these tips! But I've got a new texture for the Bridge and it will be the final one

[FromTheAshes]

Here's the final bridge. I also make some diagonal LOTs.

[freedo50]

Looking good, it will be nice to have some more canals! Is that dirt texture used on the last bridge pic availaible on other lots because I can see connection issues, i.e. it being hard to get the right look with adjacent pieces.
Great work though,

Fred

[FromTheAshes]

Thanks
The dirt texture is a standart one from the LET. Just search in "Overlay textures"

Here's an update of my diagonal LOTs:

[mightygoose]

i take it you will do connection pieces with SG's canals...

[FromTheAshes]

Sorry, I don't understand  Well, of course these fit also in connection with the SG canals..
