You need to download textures.

I was AFK here. This stuff was NOT consensual.

AFK naked... mmmhmmmm


Meanwhile, well, yesterday, :P

Well, the stern is well underway now. Myself and Hugums went ham on it today. It's closing in. Mind the "rough" sections. There's a lot under construction right now.


It's really getting there.



After like 7 years

After like 7 years
It was born to sink.

At least it's still less time than HL3.

It really is fantastic.

I can't wait for the finished version.

It's an RMS Special Edition Update! I work around the ship on small details which Bones4 often doesn't show, and many updates to come are not yet ready to be shown. For now, however, I would like to show off these new additions:

Crane doors

The insides of the main cargo cranes could be accessed this way, though I am not fully certain what's inside of them. I know how I might be able to find out, though.

Awning cable

This line of... rope, I guess? traveled across the open section of the A deck promenade. Its purpose was to allow a canvas to be hung from it on particularly bright sunny days, to help shield the eyes of first class passengers. There are pictures of Titanic in Queenstown (now Cobh), Ireland where some awnings have been mounted on the forward section of the open part of the promenade. Here is one such picture!

I know it's in bad taste to double post, but Bones4 and I are hoping that this will spawn some fun:

Which are you looking forward to more: Bones4 updates or RMS Gigantic updates? Here's how each generally goes:

Bones4 tends to post images of large areas of improvement, such as the hull work these past few days. This gets more of the ship done faster, although he prefers to leave small details for later.

I will post updates centering on small details, which, due to heavy research and calculations, can potentially take a pretty deal of time to finish. When I do finish one of these details, though, I will take a DOF screenshot of it at the end of the day, post the screenshots of each new detail here, and give each detail a description on what its role was historically. Some would say that these small details make the build seem more "real," but with how scattered I can sometimes be in my work I don't cover the vast swaths of areas in my improvements that Bones4 does.

The difference can probably best be demonstrated by my borderline obsession with light fixtures, constantly concerned about when we might get around to placing them and where. Bones4 largely ignores them, so, when you see interior photos from Bones, the lights he shows are often disembodied, inaccurately positioned, and solely for the sake of the image.



TL;DR: Bones4 is comparatively holistic about his updates while I'm more brown townytic. Which do you prefer?
