i think circle bricks look ugly when they're being used in groups. terrane needs work, more ramp bricks would be good.

Thanks for the advice, but due to the size of the island, I think detail with ramps would create a lag-uber-monster. I assume that the part about the circle bricks is refering to my palm trees?

Just relized. This is vitally important for realism.

In areas that get heavy snow, you will never ever see a flat roof. This is because snow will build up and it can cause your roof to become unstable and over a few years, can make an entire house unsafe and collapse the roof. Usually roofs would be made out of angled metal or shingles.


tl:dr no flat roofs, ok that mouse is a pair of slippers.

You still sleep in a closet. and what is that by the bed? A mouse?

But it is pretty good for being squished in such a tiny place

As requested. 1 windmill. It should be riiiiiiight in the middle of the build so you may have to clear the bricks.

It looks good but the skybox buildings look a tad spammy.

it is hard to rate these things without playing

I made an app a while back but I never really got accepted or refused, and haven't seen a server up since then.

Jeez guys I think this is pretty harsh. This is his first car.

I'd rate it 6/10 but only because it is your first.

Use bigger bricks, not only for cars, but for all your builds.

Shape: trucks are not rectangles, a little change in size can go a long way to making your build look better.

Don't be discouraged! Keep building and you will get better.

Suggestions & Requests / Predator (private addon?)

« on: April 26, 2012, 11:07:00 AM »

I remember being on  server a while ago (humans vs. shadows) or something like that, and the "shadows" looked like

predators from AvP. The crouch animation looked like kneeling, and you could turn invisible with the light key and you

could sprint.

anyone know and have this addon or is it private?

i don't see any tiki torches

The tiki islands are a collection of builds that i've done over time, getting bigger and bigger. This isn't done yet so there isn't any "detail" like the torches.

Here are the other projects in this set

where are the tiki torches

soon...

Terrain needs work.

If you'd like better greens you could use Althur colorset included in the Althur save pack. It replaces the obnoxious purples and pinks in the Truenos updated specials rows with better greens and a dark brown.

I'd like that a lot. Right now i'm just using standard Truenos.

Since my last Tiki island, I have been working on making an even bigger, better, and more tree-spammy build. This is no way near complete however, I just wanted to post some picture because I may never finish and because I wanted to show some progress. I would not like any ratings as it is WIP but any constructive advice would be fine, along with ideas for more plants. I only have a few right now.

Now... some pics


some road

overview of the road. Its pretty tight so outlets and bikes will be best, not jeeps

This is the begining of a mangrove forest on the other side of the island

The (unfinished) mountain and a bit of the next segment of island




-New Pics-




This is the "mini jungle" its just a couple of trees on the hill

the door to the "Tiki shrine" which is WIP

Side of the island and the finished road

top of the island, which come to the question? Volcano top or mountain top?

So, I have a few questions for you, (Volcano Top or Mountain top?) (few, some, or many trees on the side of the island) and, what should I work on next. (detailing first Island, building second island, or putting in tiki torches?)
