Welcome back, good to see you.

sad to hear you lost your model, did you loose everything?
Since I've lost a harddisc with unrecoverable photo's I tend to have copies of my work on several different drives, although I must sync all again...

I agree, the reactor is a pain to do

Is it only me, or is the wiki down....(for some days now)?

database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was:
 (SQL query hidden)
 from within function "MediaWikiBagOStuff:_doquery". MySQL returned error "145: Table './qhimm_wiki/objectcache' is marked as crashed and should be repaired (localhost)".

Akari,
If I may ask, what is the reason for the switch from Ogre to Irrlicht?

Looking great, as always, SpooX!
And no, It's not you, I noticed too =D

Btw, I'm in the process of making a proper flash gallery for TA, so if it turns out that it's better than this system, we'll have to set up so you send me shots via PM or something.

Cool...I think you can grab all the images from the links in the posts...

Here's an other one...
I hope this will rid the previous version from the 'Lego' look....

Some experiments if you like....

NMKIN_1 Lighting and material test, this one is not modeled by me....


...and when you turn the camera you have SMKIN1



and a somewhat more abstract one... (and this one is modeled by yours truly )


Is it me or is there more activity lately....?

Marlene drew a picture for you? I AM JELLY! She's such a sweet little loli; I wish she'd draw pictures for me

Well, actually I stole it from her fathers boxing ball which was hanging in a cellar with a pinball-machine-elevator....
She gave me a nice flower though...

I'm not even going to ask how you found that out.

Just remember that even if her body looks like its ready, her mind might not be.

LOL 
small hint: her father wears a gun constantly......

for your amuzement....
just a little test (always seem to have a good struggle with Palmer)

PS I put a little joke in the field... .... .... 

I haven't changed the TV, it would be nice to put the news flash movie within the script as the news is mentioned, has anyone tried such a thing already?
The green lines are due to....well it's just a test anyway. 

_{BTW for those who want to try this field out I put the images within the WIP repo, they can just be copied into the mod directory, no need to alter LGP's.}

Oh I was thinking of the tv in the room of the house just outside of Aeris' house.

It would be even more fitting if it were the TA hideout TV though a little more obvious.

hmm... Am I that bad at moddeling and texturing...? 
or do I need to put signs throughout the backgrounds, to make things more obvious?

It is the TA hideout...

Well at least someone noticed the right location 
Btw, who from Avalanche is smoking? does anybody knows?

the newsreader is some random japanese news reader, don't really know who he is, just picked one from google, also I hope the text makes some sence...[i/]

at the left, on top of the roof gold in green with red border: 器銃 (waepon storage?)
at the left, at the fence: 立入禁止 [no entry; Keep Off!; No Trespassing]
at the left on the wall right of the bazooka: 買得 [bargain]
Ceiling top left (behind the sign with the dagger: 銃剣 [bayonet]
center back wall, red on black: 美刀 (beautifull swords) this seems to be different between the original sketch and the final background?
there are two more signs against the background (between the swords) which I have not decivered...yet.
 
backwall above the bottom left sword: 名 :)月 <--the smiley here is a little moon, more like ")" (Harvest Moon)
backwall above the top right sword: 息吹 (breathe)

ohw and on the floor: 火 (fire)
that's all that's readable

“N-8th”? Wonder what that means?

North- 8th sector
(look at SOUTHMK1 there you can see "S-5th" on the left and part of "S-4th" on the right side).

considering the honey bee in, I've relooked at the source I had on that....

wrote:Thank you so much! It's a shame the other two two signs aren't clear enough, tho perhapse you could give me some random smut in japanese I could throw up instead? 

Trying to fit in with what seems to be there already:

Sign on the left: マッサージ (massage)
Right: 風俗会社 ('entertainment'/sex business)

so you can forget that, mea culpa.

Progress progress, apart from my myriad of things I'm doing myself, I spend a little time working on each hobby project every so often.
Erstwhile glad you've not lost interest.

The bombing mission being the start of the game, I'm interested in assisting in any generated video content that might be made.

Cyb

Oh yes, sorry got on a little side track....

but progress...
pretty much finished the warehouse


and some more...

enjoy.

time to sleep...now.

let's see what you can make of this?
also in the weapon room.... white banner, black characters, the one in the front:
戦国武将
(the last kanji was the hardest)

« on: 2011-01-22 23:09:43 »

luksy: Could the white and red war banners in the FiRe mat room read 戦国武?

It could be, I really don't know, although it don't think it looks like kanji personally. It could just be a filler like a mon or something, giving "war weapons".

The one behind seems to start off 一日一, which could be 一日一善

the banner Red with white states: 先手必勝!! (first move wins?)

Looks like a mangled form of word "Energy V(five)"

you're right it is "エネルギー"V

everytime i try to post, there has been a new post.....grrmble, so now I'll just post. (third attempt)

Use search to find the old 3D backgrounds thread where someone showed the Midgar Edge Station text and how to edit and rotate backgrounds via sketchup.I forgot who was it.

search this forum, and you'll find out.....
actually it is quite the simular method I use for re-creating backgrounds....

SpooX: I think that sign at Honey Bee Inn says 明朗会計, and I can't really make out マッサージ. Maybe just the ジ at the end, but it looks more like ツ.

might be right, I found these references somewhere (I think it was on lifestream) so I'll have to take a closer look, to confirm.

Also, スッキリ makes sense, but のビごレ?

hmmm... I've tried some translators.... got something back about "your highly refreshing beer" (but you'll have to be quite creative with those translators...  )

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

now back to bussines....


left side of ring: エネノげ-V (no clue about what it means)
banner up-left:
然之ろ男よ!!
on the board right from the mirror: 男の道 (way of the man??)
banner: 男乃迪中乃男
banner: 肉質剛健
banner: 好色美男

PS. I've been getting messages of people interested in the book I mentioned before,
It is japanese ( ) 背景画集 草薙4
I've got it through Amazon.co.jp.

I think you are right   I wonder who tried to get away with that! hahaha

yep, you are right, it is a "C" (I forgot it was stated as an "e")

some other notes...
the restaurant at sector 8 seems to be named in the tech demo as "Les Marronniers" which translates into the chestnut trees (クリの木)....(however it makes you wonder where the "D" is comming from....)

In MD1_2 left from the gatethere is a sign stating "NORTH GATE" at the opposite of the gate there is a sign white on green with probably something like "OMEGA" and "RED" underneath it, it's hard to read.

on the bottom left there is also a sign attached to the warehouse, I can't find out what it says...

oh and the bear advertisement at the end of the bar...
it has "のビごレ" followed by "スッキリ"

the orange sign on the fence reads "keep out"
to the right of the fire mat on the fence it reads "warning"
behind the fence (backwall green part above some ammo) there are two signs
"<| Keepout |>" and "Denger" (should probably danger there... 

to the left the flag to the right reads "DE -[skull with wings] -R"

the front part of the boxing ring reads "SWC"- Square Wrestling Club

left of the performance area (the very dark part) has a smell sign wit "WC"

Sign on the left: マッサージ (massage)
Right: 風俗会社 ('entertainment'/sex business)

The black writing on the far wall above the counter is just barely unreadable. Anyone else care to try their hand?

there is som kanji, with a bear-glass underneath it, I'll get back with more details.
[Edit starts here]

now this is interesting....

some graffiti reading “Pyek

this is not what it originally should be....this must have been editted through censorship...
let me put it this way, you can even see it if you zoom in...
the "P" used to be an "F" and the "y" should be an "u" 

Corel-21

To the right side of the building it states "Corel-29"
at the side and top of the truck there seems to be stated "Corel - R24"
[Edit ends here]
