Cool! A ballpark, would this be another AAA park or are you going for a MLB Park?

XiahouDun · April 12, 2008, 09:07:17 PM

Yeah, updating the sig now Pat. Ironically when I started the ballpark I was just in the BAT to make props for my houses, so I am still working on my housing at the same time

Its going to be a minor league stadium Skyliner, its modeled after a minor league field near me.

That preview is a few hours old, let me update you guys:

Field texture is just a placeholder.

niiiiiiiiiice very nice there XD!!!!!! I cant wait to see how this finishes out!!!!

XiahouDun · April 14, 2008, 06:32:28 PM

Progress:

So, for the seating, should I make each individual row, or just have each section a single piece and let the textures show the depth?

Pat · April 14, 2008, 07:31:21 PM

I think that doing it individually would do wonders but maybe texturing could work as well... I would suggest trying both options first...

XiahouDun · May 13, 2008, 03:26:57 AM

How about a little update huh?

The stands aren't going to be those single pieces, just going to be using them as guides.

Pat · May 13, 2008, 09:08:45 AM

Thats real sweet there XD!!!!!!!!!

XiahouDun · May 13, 2008, 01:01:34 PM

Oh, just a note, thats not the final texture for the field, I just needed to accuately place the foul poles. It does give you an idea of what it will look like though

jmyers2043 · May 13, 2008, 05:03:05 PM

Thanks for the explaination. I was wondering if I needed to make a suggestion <ha ha> ... Actually, this looks to be a good start to a ball field and I wish you luck.

Some progress has been made. I accidently made the blue seats too large in that preview, so I've already taken care of that. I need to touch up the textures for the metal bleachers too.

Still using the placeholder texture for the field btw.

CasperVg · June 12, 2008, 06:25:11 AM

Looks really good, I really like it

Pat · June 12, 2008, 09:45:23 AM

Loooking real good there Eric!!!!

XiahouDun · June 12, 2008, 03:33:38 PM

There we go, made the mentioned adjustments and finished the first base side. Going to move to third base, then the backstop area.

XiahouDun · June 21, 2008, 05:11:49 PM

While replying to a topic here yesterday, I came up with a thought that I'd like your opinions on. For houses, do you like seeing gutters modeled on or left off? I've been leaving them off since they aren't visually appealing to me, but I wanted to know other people's opinions.

Heblem · June 23, 2008, 07:16:01 PM

youre doing a great baseball stadium

as for the gutter for my it not a problem, leave it off

Fatsuhono · June 27, 2008, 08:39:25 PM

Very great work XiahouDun, you have impressed with baseball park, very interesting.

XiahouDun · June 27, 2008, 08:43:54 PM

Thanks for the feedback guys

I've gotten more done on it, debating if I should post it tonight or not...

Earth quake · June 28, 2008, 01:37:42 AM

Great stadium.
It's really Beautiful, go on.

XiahouDun · September 24, 2008, 11:20:53 PM

Just wanted to update so you didn't think I gave up. Memory became an issue witht he stadium being so large. Once I can get some more ram and a few more reference shots, I'll be finishing this work up. I am thinking I may wait until next season to get the all new outfield ads. I HAD tickets to go to the last game of the season this year to get the shots, but the game was cancelled

I have a few things I am looking at to work on now. I'll keep you updated
